January Sale, Special 69c Pearl White S.^ap (. f.u 19c (Canadian School Journal for Decem- ber.) lf({u«'stion â€" If a trjv'ee entered into a remunerative contract with his school hoard five years bko a"<l ha» htld office undisputed every year since, can he be disqualified now for hiii offence then? An.swer â€" Section 135 ( 1 ) of Tlu Public .School Act reads as follows: "A triMtee shall not enter into any contract, agreement, enjcairenient or promise, either in his own name or in the name of another, and either alone or jointly with another in which ht; ha.s any ui-cuniary interests, profit or promised or expected benefit with tlie board of which he is a incnvbcr, or have any jjccuniary claim upon or re- ceive compensation f roui tiie board ' for any woik, enKaKoniont, emi)loy- ment or duty on behalf of the board, and every such contract, afrreement, engagement or promise shall be null and void, and a trustee violating the piovisions of this section shall ip.«!0 facto vacala his seat." Legal authority only could inak'^ decisions as to whether a trustee i."^ legally in office when, at some time in the i)ast in hi.s experience as a trustee he iiad entered into a contract with the board of trustees. It would seem, however, that if the trustee has been re-elected .'â- ince teh offence occurred and if no furthsr repetition of the offence has been committed, he might be regarded as holding office at the lirescMt time legally. 2. â€" '({ue.stlon â€" Can a tru.stee be dis- qualified because his wife has taken the contract for the janitor work ot the school. Answer â€" There is nothing in The Public .Schools Act which would de- bar the wife of a trustee from acting as janitor or caretaker for the school, providing the husband who is a trus- tee does not enter into the contract at :iny point. 3. (Juestion â€" Can a secretary who !>; also a trustee legally act as a tax col- lector when taxation is for .school pur- IM)ses o"ly7 .â- \ns\\yrâ€" The only services foi which a trustee may receive re- niuneiatidii from the board of trustees are those as secretary-treasurer. While The Public School Act does not state a trustee may or may not be a tax collector, he would not be able to receive any payment for his services from the board of trusteeii. It is assumed that this question re- lates to a school section in an unor- gani-'.ed township. In an organized 1 township, if a trustee were a tax col- lector the payment for his services' would he made by the municipal coun- cil, and therefore there would be no contract between the tru.stec and the 1 board of trustee. | â- 1. Question â€" When all ratepayers in a section have disqualified themselves for membership on a school board, who takes charge of the school? .Answer â€" Subsection (3) of section 78 of The Public Schools Act reads as fidlows: ''Where the inspector reports that no persons duly qualified are avail able the Minister may appoint as members of the board such ,)ersons as he may deem proper, and the per- sons so appointed shall have all the authority of a board as though they were cdigible and duly elected accord- ing to the provisions of this Act." 5. Question â€" If it has been found that at .some time during the year a tru.stee has disqualified him.self, ar? any of the resolutions passed during the year following the disqualification Ugal? .â- \nswcr â€" -Whore the business of the â- L-hool section has been transacted in spite of the fact that one of the tru^=- li>'.'.s is disiiualficd, there is no doubt that the resolutions and actions taken by the t)oaril of trustees have not full legal authority. The newly elected l)oard of trustees may, however, pass a resolution confirming the action ot the previous board in so far as they have been in the best interest.'! of th-.> school. fi. ({upHlion â€" C^an a trustee disquali- fied in 19.11 He Irgally elected in 19.1.57 .Answerâ€" There is nothing in The Public School Act which would pre.- vcnt a disqualified trustee in 10,^4 fiv>ni being elected a truatee by the rateiaycil; for 19.1.'), providing \te holds the neces.sary qualifications. 7. Quextion â€" We have drilled a well and while watrr is not the b«>»t. i< tastes good and from all appearances is good, as there is no taste or smell from it. The analysis recommend boil mg before using. This is not practical in the school. Should any sickness re- sult from using this water, are the trustee or the section liable? Answerâ€"Where there is any doubt whatever that the water in a school well is not completely safe for u.se in the school, the board of ti-uste«>s should send samples of the water to the Main I.'»'ioratovips, Department ot Health. Parliament Bldp^., Toronto. If any instru,^tiong are given by that Dc-pn-.trr.enl with rt-sn^-t to the wat.r these ir.stmetlons shonid be followed very carefully. A b.iard of tru.5tee£ cannot l)e too careful with respect to the sanitary conditions of the school. H. (Question â€" A public School sup- porter who has a -public school on his lot lives within three miles of a separ- a'e school built in September, 1931. Should he pay his taxes to the separ- ate sihool three miles distant or to the public school 1.50 feet disla"t. An \verâ€" II the person's name is re- corded with the municipal clerk as a separate school supi)orter, the school taxes will go toward the support of the separate school. If the person is not so recorded for the year, his school taxes would go toward the support oi che public school. Under Section 51 of The Separate Schools Act a person who desires to be a separate school supporter is re- quired to give notice in writing to the clerk of the municipality that he is a Koman Catholic and a supporter of a separate school situate in the munici pality. Under Section 5o of The .Se- parate Schools Act a person may not be deemed a supporter of a separate school unless he resides within three miles in a direct line of the site ot the sdioolhouse. 10. Question â€" If, at the annual meeting, a man who has not his taxes paid, or a man whose wife owns pro- perty but whose name is not on the tax roll, is declared duly elected by I he returning officer, would the re- turning officer be liable to a penalty knowing these men are not qualified to be trustees? This ques- tion is based on the idea that only the required number of trustees will Ik: nominated at the meeting and the re- turning officer declares them elected by acclamation. Answerâ€" The Schools -Act does not specify any penalty against the re- turning o.'fieer in this respect. If the election of trustees was in a i-ural school section and there was any ir- regularity, a complaint may be made to the Inspector, who is given i)ower under Section 68 (U) of The Public Schools Act to make a decision upon til" complaint. ".A ))erson whose taxes for school purposes at the time of election, or at any time during his term of office as trustee, are overdue and unpaid shall not be eligible to be elected as a trus- tee or to sit or vote as a member of the Board." This amendment wat made to Section 135 of Tha Public Schools Act in 1933. TIIE POULTRY BREEDING PEN In selecting the birds for the breed- ing pen choose females with good laying records or that possess all the characteristics of heavy layei-s. The moles should be vigorous ajid conform to breed type, the sons of heavy lay- ing dams and well-bred sii-es. F'eed generously without using forcing feeds. The breeding pen should be roomy. Sunlight and ex- ercise are important, and a supply ot alfalfa and cod liver oil will give good hatches. Five gallons of gas. And a quart of gin. And all they found Was a mess of tin. In Prussia the state will in future do all pi-ospecting for oil and owners r,f the land will receive no royalties. A good many people who invested in oil stocks will wish the state well.
