Splendid Re­ port* Read From Collegiate Insti­ tute and Public School Inspector*. ■William R. Smith, whose resigna­ tion as clerk of the municipality of the Town of Ingersoll, was recently accepted after over forty-six years of faithful service, was fittingly hon­ oured on Tuesday evening, January 9th, at a banquet tendered him in the Ingersoll Town Hall. About one hundred representatives of Ingersoll's officialdom, both past and present, were on hand to pay their tributes of respect to a man whose record of service has few, if any, equals in the Province. Beautifully decorated tables were gay with novelties, hats, noise makers and everything that gore to make a real successful party. The banquet supper was served fay the Missionary Circle of King’s Daughters and it was an excellent repast to say the least. Councillor Sam Shelton, as master of ceremonies, reigned supreme, and with the assistance of Herbert Hand- ley, as song leader, made the first part of the program highly entertain­ ing. Freddie Worker and His Or­ chestra was on hand to provide the music during the supper hour and also interspersed the program with snappy numbers. His Worship Mayor Joseph M. Wit-' son was the toast master of the even- ing and ably presided over the pro­ gram of toasts and short speeches, which was interspersed by comic skits by Harry Flood, and vocal num­ bers by W. A. Calder, both of Wood­ stock, with Clarence Oerton as ac­ companist Mayor Wilson read a telegram Of regret from W. H. Jones of Wey- bum, Saak., who was unable to at­ tend, also from Ed. Gibson of Tor­ onto, and several other former coun­ cillors now residing out of town. Ex-Mayor Willia^n English of Hes- pcler, proposed the toast to “The King”, and in the course of his re­ marks, he paid personal tribute to the assistance given him during his term of office by the retiring clerk. "God Save Our King", was sung and ML J. Comiskey spoke in response to the toast, saying many of us often failed to realise the privilege it Is to b® n citizen of the British Empire and a subject of King George V. Speaking on behalf of the Ex- Mayors, James E. ForgusBOn, stated he well remembered the time when Mr. Smith was appointed clerk, and It had been his privilege to assist Mr. Smith in getting the job. This speaker traced the varitxis improve­ ments from board sidewalks, dirt roads, gas lamps and the town pump, to paved walks and street, hydro pow­ er and a fine waterworks system. Rev- F. C. Elliott u chairman of the Public Utilities Commission, brought greetings from that body and complimented the council upon the fine banquet Hf Mr. McNiven, Mr. Smith’s successor serves as long as he did, then I am afraid an invi­ tation will not reach me far the banquet the council will tender him.” The fact that for forty-«x years Mr. Smith was town clerk, spoke highly for th® bolder of the office, as to his ability and the efficiency with which he discharged the duty of the office. The toast to "The Ladies”,' was proposed by Ex-Alderman Harry T. Bower, and responded to by D. G. Cuthbertson, one of the town's audit­ ors'. Both speakers eulogized the lad- iea and complimented the King's Baugh tens tm the fine supper they served. Fred A. Ackert, an ex-couneiDor, spoke on behalf of the citizens of the towns. He said ho W M one of the few that remembered the time when Mr. Smith W M appointed clerk and he had known the Smith family since he was a lad. He extended his beat wishes to Mr. and Mrs. Smith for many happy days in tbeir remaining years. On behalf of former membeys .of William R. Smith who was public­ ly honoured at a banquet in the Town Hall, Tuesday evening, when past and present municipal officials gather­ ed to compliment him on his 46 years of faithful service to the town of Ingersoll as clerk, which position he resigned on January 1st, 1934.

He said he would like to see the council reserve a chair in the of­ fice where Mr. Smith could come and feel at home during th® day and where he could spend his leisure hours. The toast master quoted a few lines of poetry that were expressive of words of consol emen t to th® clerk. J. Ferris David, chairman of the Ingerrsoll Board of Education, speak­ ing on behalf of the members of the board, and also as a representative of the press, brought greetings to the guest of honour and wished for him and Mrs Smith, a pleasant sojourn in the south.

Ferris David was chosen by his col­ leagues as chairman of the Ingersoll Board of Education at the inaugural meeting for 1934 held in the council chambers Monday night The meeting was devoted chiefly to organization work and the session was in progress until nearly eleven o’clock. In enter­ ing upon the work of the new year the personnel of the Board is practic­ ally the same as during 1933. There are only two new members, these be­ ing E. J. Chisholm, and J. W. Dean. John J. McLeod was no-appointed Secretary-Treasurer at the same sal­ ary as last year. Shortly after the session opened, the Secretary-Treasurer congratulat­ ed the Board generally on the alight change that has taken place in the personnel. He congratulated the two new members and added, "I want to tell you gentlemen you are joining a real board.” The fact that the Board was practically the same os last year, Mr. McLeod believed indicated the confidence on the part of the rate­ payers as to the manner in which the educational affairs of the town bad been handled. He mentioned the careful and cautious manner in which the business had been conducted, es­ pecially in view of the reduced gov­ ernment grant. In view of the econ­ omy effected last year, he consider­ ed the members were deserving of the confidence of the ratepayers as they had indicated. Chairman David, following his election, stated that he appreciated the honor that had again been con­ ferred upon him, and it would be his endeavour to justify ths continued confidence of his colleagues and the ratepayers whom they served. Chair­ man David extended a welcome to the new members of the Board. He went on to state that white the prob­ lems confronting the Board at the present time were probably not as chaotic as in 1933, nevertheless, they would require 'keen attention. What­ ever necessary expenditures might have to be made on behalf of the school*, Mr. David suggested, (should aa far as possible be made this year to give employment when work wai so much needed by many unem­ ployed. Chairman David also paid a very warm tribute to the worth of the Secretary-Treasurer. Mr. Mc­ Leod, he said, was a very efficient (Continued on page 8) Sentinel-Review Job Plant Purchased ByB, J.

Other lands surroundings this had been tensed aa a requirement of the board of health to keep the well from contamination It was also explained that som® of these lands were under a 99-year tease, while others were from year to year only- On motion of Wilson and Bowman the rentals will be paid as they coma due.The outstanding accounts left over front last year received con­ siderable attention by th® new mem­ bers, who were given a comp I eta resume u to the cauae of dolny in payment by Chairman Elliott.

There was a marked contrast in the size and weight of the visitors with the locals but the Ingersoll girls started of better than their oppon­ ents and were soon in the lead. The Ingersoll girls showed a trifle more speed and retained the lead in the first 2 quarters. Half time score, Ingersoll, 16; Woodstock, 12. At three-quarter time Ingersoll were still leading but in the last quarter when the play became more exciting and consequently more vig­ orous, the weight began to tell, Woodstock, after the score had been tied on three occasions, scored one free shot and two field baskets to lead by five points. LeFaive ecored another for Ingersoll, leaving the final count Woodstock, 27; Ingersoll, 24. The lino-up:— Woodstock—M. Thornton, 2; A. Rapson, 9; M. Glndb, 16; D. Murray, E. Skinner, D.

The London “Y” juniors opened the O. A. B. A. series in London on Fridsty night with a brilliant last- period win over the Ingereoll junior squad. The wore waa 17-16. After trailing a bigger team for more than titree-quarters of a hectic clcee-checfc- ing contest, the Londoner’s with calm precision overtook the invaders with three minutes to play and held their one-point lead until thia whistle. Ingoreoll jumped into a five-point lead in tho firat few nunotea, when long shots from the centre line found their mirk with uncanny precision. London found the basket for the firat time when Kaake, steady guard, potted one from the fool line, and it coked like the “Y” would pull up the leaders. Another barrage of long ones by the Ingersoll for­ wards told again, however, and they went out in front by seven points. London called time out and when play was resumed they began check­ ing beyond centre, holding the loeers to a few shota at the hoop. From this point the winners debberutely at­ tacked with a, style and easily dominated the play until full time. The entire London team played nice ball, with scoring honors even­ ly divided. Their attack was good, but they were unable to find the’ basket with the skill of the Ingersoll sharpshooters. The Ingersoll zone defence was Ithe Capture of their play.

The bqya’ team representing Chal- mer’s United Church , Wootfctock, had four members of the Woodstock Intermediate “A” team and one "B” team member on its line Up and the result was as expected, a win for the visitors. The Ingersoll team on the other hand, wu a mixture of In­ termediate “B” and Junior teams, and had not played together before. In the first half Woodstock had things pretty much their own way and were leading at half time by 27-6. The second half, however, was quite a different story. The home team set­ tled down to real business, and the game was very-evenly contested, Woodstock only scoring 20 to Inger­ soll 16 in this period. The superior shorting of Woodstock accounted for a lot of the differences in th*j score, which finished at Woodstock, 47, Ingersoll 22.

During the business part of the Automobile insurance rates of major companies covering ‘‘passen­ ger haxiu-d” ware increased consider­ ably this month. Last year an addi­ tional &0 cents on a public liability policy protected a car owner with respect to injuries received by per­ sons riding in his automobile. Ef­ fective on January 1, 1934, this rate has been raised to $2 on ail standard policies of $6,000 or $10,000. The rate is proportionately higher on all policies covering a public liability of more than $10,000. It is understood in local insurance circle# that all car insurance rates are to bo revised about March 1st, with little chance of any dropping of premiums. The rates, may, or may not go higher. Ingersoll at the present time, is on the lowest rate. With regard to the passenger hazard clause, this was first carried last year at an additional 50 cents rate, as an experiment, the compan­ ies seeking to learn at what rate thu. could be financially handled. The $2 charge is the result. Fred Sheldon. Jack Carr, Wart Cook, Jim Scott, Allen Hargan, Lockhart. Referee—Herb. Handlqy, G.

Furlong in his re­marks said it had been his privilege to know Mr. Smith intimately for the past twenty yearn and he had a kind­ly heart and was a man of great in- tergritty. It was Mr. Smith who sign­ed his name to all records of new ar- rivate in town and it was ho who signed the final papers of all in Ing- eisoll who passed out of this world. Ho expressed the hope that he plight be spared long to enjoy the rot that he had so justly earned Councillor Leo J. Kirwin proposed the toast to "The Visitors”, whose presence he said was responsible for the success of the gathering, Fred C. Smtih, of The Globo Staff, Toronto, a son of Mr. Smith, who was bom the year his father was ap­ pointed clerk in 1888, spoke in re­ sponse to this toast and iterated many fine thoughts in the course of his re­ marks. The success of his father as town clerk he attributed to his great loyalty to ths town. “I can’t tell you in words how happy I am to be here tonight when you are honouring my father. This passing out of office will be a new era for him. From the first day I knew anything, I knew my dad only as the town clerk of Ingersoll and it will be hard for me to get accustomed to spenkng of him as being other than the town clerk.” The history of the past is the criter­ ion oi the future, the speaker men­ tioned and held out the belief that there was a great future in store for Ingersoll Mr. Smith compared many things in Ingersoll today with condi­ tions here 40 years ago. He raid he had one ambition in life and that was the ambition that he hoped some day to be as good a man as his father. "On behalf of my brothers, my sister* and nxyeelf, I wish for father and mammie many years of happy and contented peace in their new found leisure and trust dad may be able to return to Ingersoll after a short holi­ day in the south to take his place again in his beloved Ingersoll,” were Mr. Smith’s elosing words, T. N. Dunn, chairman of the Alex­ andra Hospital Trust, thanked Mr. Smith for the assistance he had al­ ways given that body and expressed their appreciation of the valued ser­ vice he had rendered the municipality. Ex-Councillor Fred G. Walley in­ troduced the speaker of the evening, ex-Mayor J. Anderson Coulter, naw of Brantford, who is the oldest man from the point of years as an ex­ mayor that is alive today. Mr. Walley said of Mr. Coulter, "He was one of our trading citizens for a great many years and his leaving Ingersoll was a great lose to the town.” Mr. Coulter was warmly greeted by his many Ingersoll friends, ns all joined in singing “For He's a Jolly -Good Fellow,” when he nose to speak. He said it was most gratifying to be welcomed back to the fireside where he spent so many happy years. In speaking of the retiring clerk he re­ called the time when Mr. Smith lost his arm in the Noxon Co. plant and when he returned from Business Col­ lege and kept books for Dm. McKay and Sgoti, previous to his appoint­ ment as Town Clerk. A very close friendship had always existed be­ tween Mr. Smith and himself and he had always found the guest of hon­ our, fair, honest and square in his business dealings with everybody. Mr. Coulter declared about Mr. Smith, first, he was the best municipal officer I have ever known; second, I believe die affairs of the town could have been better handled if they had been left entirely in the hands of W. R, Smith, than they have been by mayors and councils, and thirdly, ho has the greatest fund of Municipal Law knowledge of any man I ever knew, Mr. Coulter traced many of the activities of the councils in Ing­ ersoll from when he was mayor in 1908 until the time he left here. He wished for Mn ^mith that he might have everything that was due him for the efficient service he had ren­ dered to Ingersoll.

He referr­ ed to certain malicious rumors that had been circulated about town and declared them to be false and a curs; to the town. He paid a personal trib­ ute to Mr. Smith and spoke of the success with which he had filled the office of town clerk. A well worded address, signed by Mayor Wilson and Councillor Shel­ ton, was then read by Mr. Buchanan, after which ex-Mayor Sutherland pre­ sented Mr. Smith with a substantial cheque and a box of candy for Mrs. Smith. Mr. Sutherland in his remarks, raid he heartily endorsed all that had been said by the previous speakers. The honoured guest,Mr. Smith, re­ plied to the presentation stating he had been in public life a long time, but he was no public speaker. He said: "I started public life in 188g. kept it up until just recently. I guess I have made out over 1006 papers and documents all of my own get tip, and I want to say to the Mayor and members of the Council, I am going away on the 11.20 train and I hope when I get down where it is warm I may recover my health.

Snavely’s feverish desire that toe ibodd not aik questioas about the well, that she should not go near it .. . The well haunted him; wasn’t be always lock­ ing toward it? V/ithout any cut and dried reason­ing, without weighing, rejecting and sorting evidence, Ruth found herself with a clear, convincing picture of the whole plot She knew as plainly as though a hundred investigators had compiled proofs for * hundred days Ann groaned and the jointi of her entwined fingers cracked but she shook her head. “I i«t ram't go fer dom nothin'’gains’ Mr. Snavely. You doan understan' how 'tis with toe an’ him. Slowly the giantess walked to Ruth's room. The girl followed. “These here ready?" asked Ann. pointing to two suitcases. Ruth nodded, and the big woman left the room with them.Dully, Rulh continued the packing. She would try again after Ann was off the ranch and on the main road. But Ruth felt certain that Ann would do exactly as Snavely had ordered. , . . The voice, then, was not his only- hold on Ann; there was a bigger thing. In a short time the packing was finished and the buckboard loaded. Ruth looked about for David; he was not in sight, nor did he answer her call. She suddenly realized that she had not seen him since returning from the mail box. Ordinarily, she would have been only mildly disturbed—the snakes were gone this time of year. Then Ruth’s heart stopped: a few He stopped and his handa went up. that the letter was a lie; that it was Snavely’s final effort to get rid of her. And Harry—Harry was dead. His body lay under a pile of rubbish at the bottom of the well . . . that was why Snavely's pale eyes strayed there so often.She heard Snavely’s voice shouting angrily for Ann. then the thump of his boots as he entered the house. “David,” whispered Ruth, "Mama's going to trust you to do as she says: who owned it an' he come here. He wanted to be pardners—I signed. I couldn't help it—damn him I"“What did he do to you?”“1 don't know—let me be, can't you? He come here an’ I wasn’t by myse'f no more—I couldn't git him to go.”“You didn't have to murder him!” “I hated him, I tell you! He done what all people do—I hated him like I hate all the rat. I got to be by myse’t I been alone since I was born. Every man I ever knosred tried to git somethin' off me. Every store­ keeper tried to cheat me. Every rancher tried to fence off part of my land—every time I got a good tiling somebody tried to get it away for his own se’t That’s all humans do I Their whole lives is just spent trying to get something somebody else has got 1""Well?” demanded Ruth.“When I come here there was twenty thousand acres of this ranch an' the house was in the middle of it I couldn't see no fence whichever a-way I looked. I bought this ranch. I could stay here. I had my horses an' I had enough cattle to keep me busy an' to feed me. I bought this ranch fair an' square. Then a man comes with a paper an’ says he owns three-quarters of it Rut he didn't want to stay here—he didn't want nothin' bat money. So he went away an’ I scraped enough together each sellin' time an’ sent it to him. That was all right. Then your brother bought that man out an’ come here. He come to stay. He armed to im­ prove the ranch. Good God a'mightyl "I am going to take you over the mountains,’’ said Ruth evenly. “Stand up I" Snavely slowly rose and Ruth backed away. At that moment his eyes looked past her shoulder and his head nodded ever so slightly. Before Ruth could move great strong arms were holding her in a vise, a big hand took possession of the gun. Ann's voice muttered close to her ear, "Tse sorry.” “Give me that gun I” Snavely darted toward Ann as the giantess re­ leased the girl. Ann backed away shaking her head. Snavely stopped.Ann spoke swiftly to Ruth. "Gtt yo're little boy and ride away quick —hurry.

It lay as though it had been placed on end against the fence: in imagination, Ruth saw her son standing on tiptoe, leaning over the fence, hitching himself farther over to see better, losing his balance, the box falling away as his feet left its top. With a cry of anguish she ran to the box, stood it Up, and mounting, leaned over the fence—"David I” The name rang hollowly and died away. “Da-vid—’ With a moan, Ruth slipped from the box. . . . The next instant, it seemed to her, Ann Was helping her to her feet. "Ann! Ropes! bring ropes quick!” Ruth struggled to free herseli from the giantess’ arms. “Let me go! Oh, God. don’t Jet David be in there—"“Now wait, Miss Ruth—wait—you doan know the fell in, does you?” "No—no—but where else is he— where else—" Ruth was dizzy; she fought to keep her senses. “Ann—"Ann left her and ran into the huute. Rulh climbed upon the box again, but she could not look down. The giantess lifted her from the box. "You stand down, I'll look with this—you couldn't see nothin' with no lantern on a rope.” Ann held a mirror in her hands. She caught the light of the sun and turned ft into the well. Ruth saw her smile broadly. “There. I done tol' you he warn't down there!”Snatching the mirror from the p-ound where the giantess had dropped it, she Climbed upon the box just as the lower limb of the sun touched the western mountain range. The light from the mirror struck downward, wavered, and came to rest on the cloth hanging from a nail part way down the well. Ruth stared at the doth- as the light slowly faded. Before it was entirely gone she knew what that doth was. Once she had sent Harry, her brother, a present —a red silk hand­kerchief with an odd design of large white horseshoes. David just then came trudging up from the gulch. He couldn't under­ stand all the concern about his absence.Ruth stepped from the box, took David by the hiind and led him. into her room. After locking the door, she took Wills' revolver from the trunk and Mt down on the bed beside The handkerchief . . . Harry at- wo« it. Old Charley had said. If her brother was alive, bow did it get hall-way down the well on the Dead Lantern ranch? If he were not, then, according to the Mexican who had reported his death, the handkerchief was buried two hun­ dred miles below the Mexican line. The Mexican had actually mentioned the handkerchief. As Rdth sat on the bed, botdmg the small hand of her silent, wondering son, her mind raced - that first night when Snavely had thrown a bundle into th^ld well. He had not been expecting any one to wane OU the ranch and had k<t things stay on the bed and don’t be afraid— Mania'll be back pretty soon." With the revolver in her hand she stepped to the door, silently unlocked it, and stood with her left liand on the knob. In the kitchen Snavely abruptly ceased to upbraid Ann, and the boots thumped across the porch. “By God, 1’11 snow her who’s—" As quickly as she could move Ruth flung open the door and stepped out, the revolver, fully cocked, pointing at Snavely’s breast He stopped and his hands went up. Ruth quietly closed the door behind her.“Anni” Ruth’s voice was sharp, me­tallic. “Go into the living room.” She waited until she heard Ann’s footsteps. "Now you march ini” Snavely turned without a word and walked before her."Sit down—you too, Ann.” The girl nodded toward the chairs by the tabic. The huge woman and the pale-eyed, man seated themselves. Snavely grad­ually lowered bis arms,‘Tve got nothing against you, Ann —far from it But if you won't help me you'll have to go with this mur­derer.” “Wha—what’s list—'' Snavely gasped and his eyes stared wildly. Ruth spoke to Ann, without turn­ ing her head: “Ann. will you help me now? This man murdered Harry Gr«y, his partner. You must help me tie him so that we can take him to the authorities. . . . Welt? Are you on my side or hit?” (Ann’s face was a study.' For a mo­ ment she regarded Snavely, then Kuih. No one spoke. “Well, Ann!” “'Fore Gawd, Miss Ruth—I doan know—I doan know—" Ann wrung her hands and rose to her feet. ’Please, Miss Ruth-I cain't hep you gains’ him." Ann walked to the door, hesitated, returned a few steps then went back and stood near the !n. *n o l intfecision.All right. Ann, think it over," Ruth stepped dose to the man in the chair. Her voice was dear and sharp. "You murderer!” Snavely shrunk back in his chair. “Say it!” commanded Ruth, “—tell Ann what you arc!”Snavely's lips moved silently. "Louder T” the cried, thrusting the muzzle of the gun almost against his face. "I—done—it— My God I let me be —quit lookin' at me | I had to do it, I tell you!" “P0?’* tP0*'1 Now tel! us why you did it Ruth stood, right foot for­ward, her smooth young face set rig­ idly. “Begin I" “I-I shot hftn.""Why?”• "Bepanje I hated htm!" “Ann, help me—you have the gun, help me to take him over to Thanes’ place,” begged Ruth. The giantess roared at her. “My Gawd, git away like I tol' you!” Her voice was clear and sharp, you murderer!” Neither Snavely nor Ann moved until the sounds of Ruth's horse and David's questioning voice had died away. Snavely, white with rage, spoke scathingly. “Now give me that gun, you black—I" The gun in Ann’s hand wavered uncertainly. “Jes a tninute,” she fal- Ann cringed, turned the revolver bult forward and held it out. Snavely snatched the weapon, and raised the muzzle to Ann's face. Then he paused, and lowered the gun, ’Git my horses, damn you! They'll come back—the Thanes'll come an’ git me I ■ COOP o* upl Hurry along— git Buck an’ throw a pack saddle on him. Rim, damn your black hide!” Ann ran out of the house.

His reasons for asking the infor­ mation are them: The automobile of Sidney Ballan­ tyne, Thameaford, was stolen from London, Friday night It came to grief against a post on No. 19 high­ way, a mile south of Mount Elgin, and was abandoned by the thief or thieves immediately after the acci­ dent happened. In fact, the car was. left lying in the roadway damaged to the extent of about $300. Ha was called to the scene about midnight, Friday, and found considerable blood in the machine, whkh leads to the anticipation of broken ribs on the part of the driver, and head, face or body cuts to the passenger. The officer is anxious to hear from anyone who can help him place the blame where it belongs. 1934 BOARD (Continued from page 1) official as was erident from hia work in general, At this juncture a resolution car­ ried, appointing -Messrs- Chas.

Communications were read from the Hamilton district and the Oxford Trustees and Ratepayers’ Associa­ tions, also from the Provincial As­ sociation. A number of accounts were read and payment recommended in the re­ port of the Finance Committee, which was presented by Trustee Hargan. The following interesting inform­ ation f/om the annual report for­ ward^ to the department at Toronto, was-presented to the board by Prin­ cipal Walton of the Ingersoll Public SchoolsAverage number enrolled tet Memorial School, 662; at the Ward School, 133, total 795. Average atten­ dance, Memorial School, 600 9, Ward School, 116.4. total 717.3. Number of pupils admitted for the first time: Memorial School, 56; Ward School. 21, total. 77. Number of pupils who passed the entrance examination, 69; average age, 13 years and 11 months. Sixty of these pupils, it wan stated have entered a secondary school.

The following very favorable comment was contained in the re­ port of Inspector W. A. Jennings, on hia inspection of the Ingersoll Colle­ giate Institute on Dec. 18, 19 and 20: “Although the enrollment is somewhat less than that of last y«or. the average per teacher is stllj very high, and in one class there are 50 pupils. The stimulation to real think­ ing of each pupil in a class of thia size and the adequate .test!ng of com* prehension demand/teaching skill Zf a high order, and Are a decided dwin on nervous energy. The me^^on- trol of such a class is a severe test of a relatively inexperienced teacher. “The general discipline is satis­ factory and the orderly movement of pupils through the halls and on the stairs from room to room and to the gymnasium indicates careful plan­ ning by the principal and praise­ worthy co-operation hy the teachers. For the most part, the work of thj pupils in the class room was com­ mendable, but in certain cases s lack of earnest endeavor was ap­ parent. This failure to appreciate the purposes of the school and the efforts of the teachers is detrimen­ tal to the interests of offending pupil and to those of the whole class. It wag a pleasurable contrast to meet the prize-winning pupils, to con­ gratulate them, and to point out the responsibilities of ksadership. “The principal is making a definite drive to raise the average attendance. Regularity of attendance and punc­ tuality are prime requisites for suc­ cess in school work. The principal is also to be commended for the definite guidance he has been able to give tu the recently-appointed teachers who had little or no experience. “I welcomed the opportunity -of meeting Mr. David, chairman of the Board, Mr. Riley, chairman of the teachers’ committee, Mr. Healy, chairman of the property committee, and Mr. Keeler. Their desire to pro­ mote the best intercuts of the pupils and their -recognition of the neces­ sity of keeping the school property in good condition were noted. In his report, Principal Bole stated that the number of pupils on the roll at the Collegiate for the month of December was 291, exactly the same as a year ago, with an averge of 278.9, Principal Bole informed the Board that too many students are absent for the odd halt day without ade­ quate reason.; The number of non­resident pupils for the month was 39. He thanked the Board for their action in providing a Secretary for the school, which he said was of great aasiatance to him. Attendance Officer A. B. Handley submitted hia report for December as follows: Investigations, 8; home calls, 10; truants, none. Chairman Georg® Preston of the Ward School property committee, told of the efforts that had been put forth to provide a rink at the school grounds. On two occasions he said the rink had been established, only to be wrecked in a short time by the change in the wxather. He realized that the children especially had been disap­ pointed, but stated that a* soon as the weather warranted further efforts would be taken to provide a rink The information was given that no action had been taken to provide a rink at Memorial School. Chairman David however, stated that it was the intention, should the weather take the desired turn, to proceed with the work, but that the matter would in the meantime b® brought to the attention of tha new council.
