joseph gibbons letter of the 12th insl regarding a separate school in georgetown may we say that white we sym pathize with his anger we dis agree absolutely with bis reasons and the objective of this anger l small group of people did meet at a socalled public meeting which the board claims was call ed by five catholic householders i am one of those five housebot ders and did in effect by sign ing my name to three public no tices call a meeting relating to the separate school formation but 1 did not choose but instead was tohiby two of the seven men in volved the time and place of this meeting also three of the six men who now serve as our board of trustees posted these notices and they are whotely responsible for their locations rather than the five householders whose names as a result on saturday night april 26th our present separate school board was nominated and elected in spite of the fact that at least half of those present were opposed to it at that tune and tried in vain to postpone it all at least one night so the meeting could honestly be called a public one by announcing it the following morning sunday to all the parishioners this we were told by the chairman and secretary of the election meeting would be illegal according to the separate school act the whole formation of this board was so set up that no outsider present including our most devoted pas tor who incidentally had no vote could have changed it we are writing this mr editor for the sole purpose of informing all catholics and anyone else in terested of the true events lead ing up to this situation which has become public we are trying to point out that most objections raised except possibly those of mr gibbons are not against a separate school nor are they against the board but only against questionable manner by which this board came into being and the obscure yet arrogant attitude they adopted at their first public meeting in their capacity as board of trustees we reel sure that at least 5 of all catholics here know there is every reason and an urgent need for a separate school in george townand that we will all gladly support it and stand behind our separate school board when the true facts are given and the amount if any the financial re sponsibility will be to each and every one of us as supporters this information we feel is expe dient before any positive and dei unite action is taxen by the board we class as aheer fantasy mr gibbons implication that a se parate school would in any way affect the happy relationship which so obviously does exist be tween catholics and noncatholics of this town it is ridiculous to imply that by the formation of a separate school the catholic population is in any manner or form insulting the public school system board or staff of georgetown we arc all well aware of the magnificent job they have been doing especi ally so during the last three years of overcrowding in the schools and we agree that the public schools in georgetown are credit to education however we as catholics do not believe that home and church are the only places to teach reli gion we know that the catholic doctrine is a major part of the education of all catholics and because of this we feel duty bound to provide such education for our catholic children to the best of our capabilities being fully aware of the probabilities of extra financial responsibilities since we realize that our doctrine cannot have any part of education in a public school for children of all faiths we therefore must form our own separate school obvi ously the ontario government al so appreciates this fact or it would not so recently have raised the grants for separate schools in the province in conclusion we would like to say that we are very sorry that mr gibbons should try to magm fy a squabble into a hurricane we fell sure that when our board of trustees decides to pre lesion branches army challenge shoot this friday this friday evening georgetown armouries will be the scene of a shooting match holding wide inter est to men in georgetown and dls trict the shoot will feature branches of the canadian legion in milton and georgetown shooting it out with members of the lome scots c company in town and the mil ton company some very excellent prizes have been obtained and according to the organizer of the affair lieut enant earl lince there promises to be ample competition and priz es for all the teams will consist of six men each- and should see fairly balanced shoot all groups have some outstanding shots and a real competition should result in a friendly spirit of coopcra lion officers of the local company are allowing the legionnaires a hit of practice qn the range which should help even things up a bit a large crowd is expected and it is hoped particularly that all mem bers of the legion and of the lome scots will be present whe ther to shoot on a team or merely qs spectators there will be an open shoot after the competition which will enable anyone who wi shes to do so to have a few shots the shoot will be held on the n flc range in the armouries in the georgetown park at 8 00 p m th1 o h1ralo page 4 wednesday may list m sent to all the parishioners the true facts concerning the land purchase grants and assessments which as potential supporters we have every right to know the sun will shine again it would be well for the separate school board to remember that although as members of this board they will be dealing with the affairs of school children ages 6 to 13 they are presently dealing with these children s parents who may have long since graduated but who have not forgotten their arithme tic and still remember how to connect 82 of 350000 and 75 of 500 000 into dollars and cents
