Premier Ferguson has announced the arrangement of a summer co in oral French at Quebec for Ontario teachers. The course will be open, without fees, for teachers of French in continuation schools, high schools and collegiate institutes of Ontario. It is anticipated that four weeks' training in the environment of the Ancient. Capital will quickly improve the knowledge of the visitors, and make them hetter teachers. Accent is hard to preserve in the environment of Ontario, where French is seldom heard. Division Court Clerks in Onl have been notified of amendments enacted at the late session of the Ontario Legislature. The clause of the wages act now reads so that 70% of wages due or accruing due for wages shall be exempt from seizure or attachment, garnishee proceedings, but if the creditor desires to contend that, having regard to the natur the debt and the circumstances of the debtor, it is unreasonable that 7~ "" of such debtor's wages should be empt, the judge may, upon a hearing of the matter, reduce the percentage of the exemption. But this section shall only apply where the amount of such exemi" exceeds $15 and that a portion of such debtor's wages not exceeding $15 shall in all cases be exempt. Another clause adds: "Nothing in this section shall apply to. any where the debt to the creditor has. been contracted for board or lodging, or where the debtor is an unmarried person and the judge, upon enquiry, finds that he has no one depending upon him for support."
