The chief matter before the council was with regasd to the county pupils attending the Kingston Collegiate In- stitute, which question was very full discussed in the press last month. 1 deputation, consisting of Dr. J. W. Edwards, M.7., Rev. Mr, Cassidy, Neil MoUnig, George Nicol and A. Atkins, wos present to ask that the council take some action in order that the county pupils attending the Collegiate Institute be not obliged to drop out. After u lengthy discussion it was de- cided by the council to confer, with the } Board of Education. Dr. Fdwards said that there would be no exclusion of pupils from the Col- legiate Institute 'until next July at least. He pointed out that the Syden- ham high school could not take in the sixty county pupils at the Kingston institute any townships think that the council should do something for them. They pay the largest proportion of the county school rate, snd yet there is in the county high school at Syden- ham. At preseat there are only nine front township pupil¥ at the Syden- ham high school. The attendance by townships is : Loughboro, 33; Port land, 24; Hinchinbrook, 16; Storring- ton, 11; Kingston, 8; Olden, 4; Oso, 2; Wolfe Island, 1; Ernesttown, 1. Neil McCaig pointed out that the county council for years had got scot free for the education of many of Frontenac pupils who had gone to the Kingston institute. What was wanted by the Kingston Board of Education was an expression from the county council that it was willing to make some grant, William Milton, of Pittsburg, said that he couldn' ask the council to as sist in the education of his child, refused to be made a scapegoat. A. Atkins pointed out that if city pupils were overcrowding Sydenham high school, its board would take just the same action as the Kingston board had taken, He msidered the action of thé letter quite natural Portsmouth. ht said, deserved consid eration from the county council. i Provincial Inspector Houston sai he was t at the request of the Minister of Education to explain the educational conditions in Kingston and Frontenac. He pointed out that it was the duty of the county council to provide suitable means of securing higher education Ly all the children helongingz to Frontenac. The Kingston hoard of education he said, was per- fectly within its rights in deciding to exclude county pupils, in grder to ren der the Kingston institute an approv. ed school. Inspector Houston said the county council might talc twa or three different courses, butiitwould le well to keep in mind that such 'pro- vision should be made that all the county pupils could teke nd- vantage of it. A established in the yorth wonld not do. The meth. od that the Kingston board would like the county to adopt Would be to pay its share for the education of county pupils in the city institute, At present the law will pot allow county councils to moke such a grant, Hut the Ontario government, the inspector said, would be willing to amend the Inw so that such a grant could be made, inpspecfof further pointed out that it was not merely a question of cost of maintenance, with the King- ston boird, but there was the jucstion of providing accommodation for the county pupils, Why, he asked, should Kingston erect an additional buildin: for the education of county pupils ? That was the real question that the SHE QUIT. But It Was a Hard Pull. 1t is hard to believe that coffee will put a person in such a condition as it did an Ohio woman.

H, A. Calvin said that the eouncil sottkl pot do too much for the young- sters of the county. "Let's give them a ig chance," he said. "The old folks eam take care of themselves. M neccessary we can cut off the waste an some other quarter." Mr Calvin ad- vocated appointing a committee to wait upon the city board of eduea- _ tion 'management committee "to dis- cuss the ouestion. Louncilior Sleeth was in favor building a well-equip vounty school at 8 ham. e knew it was quite a conveniente to the residents aror-dl Kingston to send their children to the city eollegiate, but the residents of of tions of The county had to send to Sydenham, and could- n't have them home every night. Ii he had children he said he would pre fer to send them to Svdenham hich school rather than to Kingston, for he eould do it cheaper, and then educated just as well. Db asked | r Hous- ton regarding the teaching of agri- culture in high schools. The in- spector lied that the high school board > apply to the edueation depart t an agricultural class with its school. If the considered the application favorably it would appoint aud pay a teacher, the high school - board to pay the ex- penses of building and equipment. Rev. Mr. Cassiday pointed ont thst what the parents of county pupils wanted to know from the council was as to what it proposed to de, for it was necessary to know at once what provision was to be made for their uhildren next fall. The council, on motion of Coun: cillors Rankin and Hamilton, thanked the deputation for the presentation pf the case, and promised to consider the matter. ' Ok motion of Councillors Calvin and Rankin the eouncil appointed the warden and Councillors Truscott, Ran- kin, Baiden and Fawcett a committee to confer with the board of education management committee to discuss the matter, and report at the January session. | 1D. D. Rogers sent in his resignation as trustee of high school and it was accepted on motion of Councillors Trousdale and Miller. On motion of Councillors Gordon and Rankin the council appointed Henry Milton, of Pittsburg, to succeed him. The council adjourned till the after- noon when a deputation of General hospital governors was to be "heard in reference to an increased grant to that institution. The proposed purchase of the Kings- ton"Storrington toll yoad was the chief topic of discussion of the county goun- cil. A petition was received from the ratepayers of Kingston and Storring- ton townships, asking that the road be purchased and the tolls abolished. A. IZ. Weller and R. H. Fair addressed the council, and asked that the road be "purchased. The people of Kingston 'and Storrington townships demanded this, in view of the fact that all other sections of the vounty had been ve lieved of paying tolls on roads. Mr, Fair said that he owned some of the stock in the road, but was prepared to take what the county council offer- ed for it. It was only right, heclaim- ed, that this road should be purchasad and the tolls abolished. | 'Notice of a by-law to purchase the road was given by Councillor Sleeth, The purchase price will be $1280, |pavable in twenty annual payments of $990.16 each, with interest at four and a hall per: cegt... The purchase Srice represents seventy cents on the ollar of the road's valuation. Of The $12,500 the Ontario government wpuld pav one-third, or 84,227, The balance of $5,652 would be charged to Kingston and Storrington, and a por- tion probably to Loughboro, Port Innd and Pittsburg townships, which would receive advantage the abolition of tolls.
