Biological Laboratory, Charterhouse School. Fig. lOI shows the main room of the biological department at Charter-house School arranged by Mr. O. H. Latter, the senior science master,under whose guidance the writer had an opportunity of going over the build-ing. This plan forms an example of a combined lecture room and laboratory-tor biological and botanical work which is the outcome of 5 o /o 15 FEET.

II ins. high provides working space at 3 ft. 6 ins. per head for theuse of the microscope. Under each place is a 5 in. drawer and cupboardI ft. II ins. high with toe space below, while i ft. 5 ins. is left for kneespace, the whole being 2 ft. i in. wide. On the other side of the gangwayanother similar bench is placed but without cupboards. Separate seats anddesks 2 ft. long for each student are placed in two groups at right angles tothe window wall, and here a good deal of practical work is also done. Onthe back wall are a double hung blackboard, glazed cupboards, with drawersbelow large enough for diagrams, a set of open shelves and a small lecturetable on a platform, next to which are electric c
