"I think it is one of the most | forward steps the board has ever un-| dertaken," he remarked. "It will | ive an equal opportunity to the poor | { and tHe rich for education. As to the | { charges against the Collegiate, Trus- | | tee Farrell thought the management | | committee could get at the root of | { this trouble. i yTrustee Jones remarked that he| | was president of the Parent-Teach-| | ers' Association, of the Collegiate, {and he could not allow the opportu- | | nity of saying a word to pass by. He | {had been attending meetings of the | |@ssociation he had mentioned, and | | Mr. Nickle had not been present at | {one of these meetings to discuss the | question.

Trustee Anglin considered that the matter was one that should be oon sidered in the budget. '""And this will pave ¢he way for t," said Trustee Elliott. | Trustee Godwin expressed himself | as being very sfrongly in favor of | abolishing the fees. There were many men, he pointed out, who could only afford to send one member of his fa- mily to 'the Collegiate. However, he did not faver taking the matter to the clvic finance committee. He felt that it was a matter for the Boapd it~ self to decide. S As it was a matter of finance, Trustee Henderson asked that the matter be allowed to stand over till the budget was under consideration. "Is it known how many families are too poor to pay?" queried Truys- tee Jones. "Are just assuming something." "It would be a hard question to | answer," a trustee remarked. Mrs. Newlands favored the abo- lishing of the fees if the city could finance the scheme.
