shortim docsn t think so we are spending money and the pupils are saining nothing from the auxiliary classes mr gbortiu commented when the matter came at a public school board meeting earlier this month auxiliary classes isolate the children but what do teach them he said mr shortiu aired his doubts bout the value of the special classes after og mcdowell the inspector of public schools for this area advised the board that there is a sufficient num ber of candidates to start a primary auxiliary next term a primary auxiliary class would take a maximum of 12 pupils in the 6 to 8 year old bracket the georgetown public school board already operates senior and junior auxiliary classes children are being judged on one subject reading and held back simply because they are slow readers and not be cause they are blow learnera mr shortiu claimed these children prob ably wont go on to university and maybe they won t complete a high school course but i cant bold with the belief that if a child can t read well he cant leanl said mr shortiu if a child has trouble read lng but finds mathematics easy he could still be a darn good tool and die maker he said mr mcdowell said that in a well organized auxiliary class this is allowed for a pupil could be m grade 2 reading and taking grade 5 mathemit les lie claimed defending the value of the prhnarv auxiliary mr mcdow ell said that pupils placed in it have a greater possibility of re turning to a regular class slow learners notf given special tention until they are oldacire more likely to stay in aa auxil iary class group until theyve completed their elementary cd ucatlon mr mcdowell admitted the value of auxiliary class es at all levels is that academic material is taught the girls and boys at the speed at which they can absorb it mr mcdowell explained i still believe that its lots of interest responsible for moat lets play bridge by bill coats f children falling back tbats why auxiliary classes are get ting larger said mr shortiu the classes aro successful if the pupils put in them end up knowing more than they would have if left in regular clases but then how can that ever be proven trustee ed win wilson wondered mr mcdowell said their are at least lfc pupils in the george town public schools who would be in a primary auxiliary now if one existed in the ma it- bag ratepayer critical of move for council committee

certain monetary terms the amoupta they were to receive was m for each coun cil session whether ordinary or specially caued last week the majority council voted themselves 10 for each committee meeting they attend there was no ind ication of such a suggestion of this at the election meeting where the candidates spoke and the public should question very closely this further mand by councillors for their services certainly it is very evident that any services the members render to the taxpayers in the future wul be based on what they can demand not on what they are willing to

conference for grades 311213 the the promises made platform by the aspirants council was they would give of their best to the hard pressed taxpayers of georgetown la this the evidence of their prom ises were they merely politic al promises based on what they could grab to add to tl burden already too high don t get me wrong council work is very demanding and thankless at any time and the evaluation of the returns for wearying hours spent the interests of the town the reward is very small however these men accepted the terms prevalent at the time of the election and i feel are taking advantage of the situs tion in demanding this extra levy council fortunately was not unanimous m the demand but was divided on the issue appreciate the expression of cr wheldon emmerson in his comment that any such demand should have been left next incoming council rather than introduce this almost 1m mediately after the present council took office it is unfortunate that the town ever subscribed to a two year term for council as this condition could have been recti tied at the end of this year at that time the taxpayers could have solicited for council seats men who stiu had a sincere de sire to take office aa a public service rather than to what they could demand from the town coffers yours truly ed a petera born 1805 an 81 inch long 215 lb sturgeon caught in lake of the woods kenara out
