This would place them at the disposal of any citizen, It is true that I recently refused to give the mayor a summary of these results for the last four years, and I propose to give my reasons for so doing. But first let me correct some other" misapprehensions. « The mayor, as such, has no auth- ority in school matters. His office gives hfm no right te make any de- mands upon any official of the Board of Edudation, H: standing with me {| in educational matters is that of a private citizen--no more, no less. I || committed no impropriety in refusing to accede to any demand of the mayor's. . ~ His worship apparently has sought || to convey the impression that nearly 6very school except our dwn gave him the information he desired. That is || nat the case. I have letters from if. the principals of many of the vest schools in the province, stating that t.ey had either refused the informa- tion, or ignored the requests. The mayor knew this long ago. Has he been fair in this matter ? | 1 wtuded the mayor's requést be- li | cause I knew that he intended to I! use the information as the basis of an investigation of our school---a pro- cedure which I could not be expected to abet.

Our school has no cause to fear the result of any fair comparison with other given no grounds for thinking that he could or would be fair. x was a stronger reason: The Board of Education has full control Mayor Nickle was, to say the least, guilty of an indiscretio usurping the functions of the board.
