It has brought melody into many of Canada's finest homes---it has afforded highést musical enjoyment to its owners and their fri gs. Many years have rolled by since" the Housel of Nordheimer conceived the ideal of a piano that would. yield the greatest possible tone value, grow richer with right use, resist the changes of atmos- phere and the passing of time The fulfilment of these aims is a proud schievement--one reflecting credit upon even the least important of the craftsmen whose combined efforts have developed that remarkable tone which i=. the distinguishing feature of the Nordheimer R.

School-- Opening Labor Day. Qwing to the ambiguity of a report ipresanted by oh the properly commit- Robert . Meek school, there was a two-hour session of the Board of Education son Thursdy evening, altho¥gh when the neces- | sary information was forthcoming the .debate quickly terminated and {the Teport was disposed of. © The only other business was the adop- tion of report of the manage- ment committee allocating the {teachers of the city schools for the September 'term. : The meeting was called for the purpose of dealing with an applica- tion from R. Wallace & Sons, tractors, for the erection of the Rob- ert Meek school, for the payment of certain accounts out of the fifteen ')per cent. being withheld pending the | taking over of the building and the expiry of the lien period of thirty |days as provided in the contract Just why the request for payment {was made before the completion of |the school, was nqt clearly out, although at the previdus meet- |ing a resolution was passed calling {upon the contractors to @omplete the s¢hool first. | In order to safeguard the com- i mittee against liens, the main clause of 'the report was based upon an agreement drawn up by the city solicitor, consisting of an affidavit from R. Wali#ce & Sons setting forth {the accounts outstanding amounting $18,390, and a waiver from the {interested sub-contractors and depl- ersiconcerned of their right to place | 1itns upon consideration of the pay- | ment of four-fifths of eighty per | cent. of their claims from money still due the contractor by the com- mittee, amounting to $15,900. The other fifth, twenty per cent., will be retained for thirty days after the completion and. acceptance of the school to guard against any liens. The agreement as drawn up by the city solicitor was adopted with the following. amendment, moved by Trustee Bishop, seconded by Trustee Jones: '"That the chairman of the com- mittee be empowered to sign the agreement with the contractors, R. Wallace & Sons, provided . the same is amended to protect < the against any liens." vb tee, the Report of Committee, | A. Lemmon, 'chairman, presided |and those speaking on the subject | were Trustees Henderson, Elliott, { Godwin, Macdonald, Bishop, Moore, | Campbell, Lockett and Smythe. The report of the committee asked per- mission to pay eighty per cent. of the accounts without reference to any guarantee respecting liens, and Trustees Henderson and Bishop re- gistered strenuous objection. were supported by Trustees Elliott, Campbell and Jones. Only after a [resolution was moved to refer the {clause back to the committee for further cofisideration, ment was made by Contractor Wal- lace, was an agreement reached. Clause two ordered the payment of accounts totalling $1,388.75. Clause three as adopted read: "The total which the board will pay will! be $16,107.95. To meet this there is cash on hand, $15,407; ance rebates; total, $16.107." have furnished an affidavit to the effect that the total indebtedness on the building is $19,707.75, also an tors" the above amounts and charge them to their account." Labor Day was selected as the date for the .ceremony of the open- ing of the Robert Meek Trustee Elliot suggested that the minister of education be invited to attend and officiate; also that the Parents and T8achers Associatiogs be asked to assist in entertaining vis- {tors on that occasion. The arrange- ments were left with the chairman, property and management commit tees. --, LotT Allocation of Teachers, The report of. .the management commitee allocating teachers for the September term, which was adopted was as follows: v Central school--Jr. IV, Miss Ryder; Sr. III, Miss Polk; Jr. III, Miss Vol- ume; II, Miss Harola; 1, Miss Van- laven; Sr, I, Miss Allen; Jr. I, Miss Compton; Jr. I, Miss B.
