There was a long discussion upon the clause in the committee's Tepurt upon the establishment of household training in the public schoos. A. H, Leake, provincial inspector of manual trainine and household science was present and gave the board some information as to the establishment of thése departments.' He pointed out that the practice had been to sive in- struction in household science to girls at too early an age. Older girls best appreciated the subject. His idea was that girls in the -jimior and senior fourth classes should be given needle work; and afterwards, in the. first and second forms of the collegiate he draft- ed into household science work, The inspector advised that Miss Shaw be continued in the teaching of art avd needle work) and thus she could be classed as a second household i teacher, and an extra grant seoured from the government. Prof. Martin, remarked that Inspec. tor Leake's ideas were similar to his own in connection with 'teaching hopsehold science to girls. He con- tended that the girls of the fifth class of the public schools, which he said was soon to be established, were the ones to whom to teach household science.

He was prepared to take the opinion of the expert of the provinee, Mr. Leake, ,- Mr. Elliott denied that the manage- ment committee had been worrying Miss Shaw. The latter had stated that 'she was qualified to teach manu- al training. If so, she would be re tained. He objected to Prof, Martin's statement. + Inspector Leaké stated that his re marks concerning. Miss Shaw were not given until he spoke at this meeting, Hence the management committee was not aware of what he now advised. Mr. Bennett also denied that there was any movement. to release Miss Shaw. Let the new departments be first established. He asked the board in any case not to sacrifice the inter- ests of the pupils of the schools for the sake of anv one teacher. Prof. Macgillivray said that there was no feeling in the management commitlee regarding Miss Shaw. The only feeling seemed to he displayed by some members at the board meet- ing. Mise Shaw was recoomized as a good teacher. He was in faver of es tablishing the proposed department. More Details Wanted. household science. The question was too bie a onc. Hé wanted thé matter referred back to the committee, for fuller details. Inspector Leake had thrown new light on the household science question by stating that the present work done ine the schools by Miss Shaw coukl be continued in con: nection with the establishment of the full department. As to manual train- training, Mr. Meek said he didn't think the 'peopls wasted it, and the board was certainly not in a position to establish it in the schools. He ad- vised that the property and manage- ment committees meet together and elaborate the whole scheme. Mr. Godwin, as chairman of the Propedty committee, said he would not copntenance any expenditure on the pro) _dephrtments, that would put a burden' upon next year's pro- perty committee. The committee this Year couldn't expend any of the money puired rey Prof. Martin said he wished to apologize to the m, agement com- mittee for his remark concerning its deliberations. He thought it had the informati which was given by In- spector Leake. Mr. Meek moved, seconded by Mr, Wormwith, that the matter in ques- tion be referred back to the manage- follows : 1.

He lived there until last spring, when he purchased a home in King- ston, and moved here. It was on Sep- tember 17th, just as he was about to leabe to attend the meetine of the general conference, at Montreal, that Mr. Stratton was stricken with ill- ness, in fact he was taken ill just a few hous before the time set for his parture, He was removed to the hos- and remained there for five weeks, afterward being taken to his home. During last Summer, it will be remembered, Mr. Stratton preached at the Sydenham Stréet Methodist church, during the illness of the pas- tor, Rev. C, E. Manning. A remark- able coincidence is the fact that de ceased preached his last dermon at Napanee, near where he was born, and where he spent his boyhood davs. Deceased is survived by bis wife and . R.

SOMETHING TO REMEMBER Was the Excellent Concert at the Y.M.C A, The sale of work and concert, given by the Ladies' Auxiliary of the Y.M.

'Ladies were coming and going alk, the afternoon, purchasing the dainty and handsome fancy work prepared by the auxiliary, nad friends. in all about $125 was realized, every aeticle offered being sold. . Last ovening, in the gymnasium the excellent concert, organized by-Miss L. Sincleton, added another success to the day. The programme was far the finest ever held in the local Y.M. CA. rooms, and was made up of se- lections, both vocal and instrumental, by Kingston's finest musicians. The male quartette of Queen Street Metho- dist church rendered several selections in a highly complimentary manner. Messrs. Shea, Bradley and Craig sang very pleasing solos, and Miss Dutton's recitations were up to her usual high standard. Miss Mussie's vocal solo and Miss Toye's piano solo were fea- tures of the eveming, Miss Singleton is to be praised for the excellent pro- gramme she had arranged, and though the audience was small, those fortun- ate ones who were present have some- thing in the way of an excellent even- ing of music to remember for a long time.

In discussing with a Whig represen tative the lodge contract question, a leading physician seid that the best way to arrive at a solution would be i for lodge representatives and a com- mittee of the doctors to have a con- ferénce. He pointed out that the pre- sent system of lodge medical attend ance is neither satisfactory to the lodges, the patients or the doctors. It is impossible for the best medicine to their lodge pa- tients for the paltry remuncration they are receiving, nor can they be expected to give the same attendance to them that they do to thei doctors to give ; \ . own private patients. They do not eon- tract to do so. The best wa would be for lodges to pay thee for what attendance members. © A record kept of this. there would on all sides.
