At the meeting of the Board of on Thursday night the kindergarten teachers asked that they be placed under the same salary schedule ag the other teachers of the staff, the change to come into effect in January, 1917. The teachers claimed this consideration as a mat- ter of justice. They pointed out that they had to attend the summer school and qualify for teaching in primary classes. The communica- tion of the teachers was referred to the Management Committee. Thee report of Management Com- mittee was presented by the chair- man, 'Trustée Farrell, and that of the Finance Committee by Trustee Craig in the absence of the chairman, Trustee Anglin, and both were adopts ed. The Management Committee re- commended the following: "That the tender of Thomas Me- Auley for pupils' supplies for the year 1917, being the lowest, be ac- cepted. The figures are $1,695.90. "That a supply of alphabetical cards for use in the primary classes the Red Cross Society. A most satisfactory report was presented to the Board on the dif- ferent cadet corps in the schools by the Department. A warm tribute was paid to each corps, comment be- ing made on the efficiency. Partieu- lar mention was made of the shoot ing of the Collegiate Institute Corps, and the statement was made "that it was one of the best corps in the di- vision. Better Conditions Urged. A report of Inspector J. Russell Stuart for the month of September contained the following: "The total enrollment at the end of the month was 2,666. This is 87 more than last year, and gives an in- crease of 231 in the last two years. The total average daily attendance was 2,365, an increase of 27. "A statement .showing tlie oxgan- ization of the sch hé ennoll- ment and average attendance for each class room is sybmitted, and your attention is directed to the evi- dence of overcrowding which this statement reveals. "The Public School regulations prescribe that the average daily at- tendance .in no public school class should exceed 40, and school boards are red, on the representation of the inspector, that when the aver- age daily attendance exceeds 45 to provide one or more additional teachers. Though an effort has been made to prevent any one class. hav- ing = greater enrollment than others, it will be observed that three classes be procured, as recommended by the Inspector. : "Your eommittee desire to place] on record its appreciation of what has been done in & patriotic way by | the pupils of the Collegiate Institute! and the Public Schools. TLé former organized an Edith Cavell Club, the | object of which was to raise funds! for hospital work. No less than] eight beds have been supplied, and | generous. grants made to other de-| partments of the work. The pupils of the Public Schools contributed $1,085 in tight months for Red Cross and Trafalgar Day purposes, $914 for the former and $171 for the latter. The )good work is still| going on under-the superintendency | of theteachdrs, all of whom have] mafiifested active interest in the mat- | ter since its inception." The Finance- committee mended the payment of a batch of accounts, recom- | large To Help Prisoners. | Robert Meek wrote, stating that United States Consul Johnson had ormeéd him that citizens were | sending a money remittance of $500 to Germany for the benefit .of Can- adians, prisoners of war In intern- | ment camps. - ; Mr. Meek said that the suggestion | had been made to him that the school | pupils be asked to contribute, and, that a day be set aside for the col- | lection. The suggestion appealed 10] the writer and he presented it to the Board for consideration. The matter was, on motion of Trustees Renton and Henderson, referred to the Man- agement Committee, with power to act. The pupils are at the present time contributing to the funds of had an average exceeding 45 and that thirty teachers had an average attendance of over 40, an excess which is regarded as detrimental to satisfactory progress and proper dis- cipline.

We have always told the people of Kingston that Vinol is a wonderful body builder for ailing children. Here is more proof of the fact: Robert J. Miller, of St. Thomas, Ontario, says: 'The measles left nry little daughter in a very weak- ened, run-down condition. She had a very poor appetite and was much below normal weight. On the advice of a friend I gave her Vinol and she has gained rapidly in weight and strength... I consider Vinol a valu- able medicine for such conditions." Vinol is especially eflicient in building up puny, weak, ailing child- ren, because of the beef and cod liver peptones, iron and manganese pep- tonates and glycerophosphates whic' it contains, and as it is without oil or grease, children love to take it.

Phone 547 dergartens, which have a separate organization, \the enroliment in the grade classes has increased during the past year by 116. a "The closet accommodation in Vie- toria and Central schools urgently calls for the consideration of the Board. The boys' lavatory at Vic- toria school is usually foul smelling, and thé bad odor poisons the atmos- phere of the class rooms immediate ly above. The new urinal installed last winter seems to contribute most to this condition, and it seems im- possible to keep it in a sanitary con. dition, \ "In view of the effect on the physical health and morals of the pupils, and the disturbance occasion ed to good order in the school, the inadequacy of the sanitary equip- ment in Victoria and Central schools can hardly be too strongly condemn- ed. Foul odors from the lavatories in Central school are observable not only in the corridors, but in the class rooms also. "The water supply for drinking purposes in Central school is very inadequate, and the only bubbler on the boys' side of the basement is out of order." On motion of Trustees Macnee and Lemmon the matter of sanitary im- provements to Wietoria and Central schools was . referred to the City Council. The mover and seconder of the resolution expressed regret that the conditions were not as they should be, and Trustee Lemmon, who is' chairman of the = Property Committee, said that the matter could not be too strongly urged on the civic authorities. The required work could have been done had suf- ficient funds been available. Principal E. O. Sliter presented an interesting report for September. The aggregate attendance was given as 441; average, 396. This was a decrease from last year of 18 in the enrollment and 28 in the average The low average was due to the fact that an unusually large number en- tered late. The enrollment for. the past six years was given as follows: 1910, 398; 1911, 368; 1912, 408; 1913, 420; 1914, 469; 1915, 459. There are 39 more girls than boys, the figures' being 201 and 240 respect- ively. The number of non-residemts enrolled is 74, 68 being from Fron- tenac county. From the latter the Board might be deriving $700 or more, in addition to what is already received, if .the Board would take advantage of the provision of the law dealing with the admission of county pupils to the schools. Principal Sliter drew the attention of the board to the fact that the new regulation would next year call for the appointment of a lady qualified to g physical instruction to the girly/in the Collegiate Institute. This matter will be taken up by the man- agement committee. Trustee Elliott referred to the marked increase in the cost of paper, and suggested that the management committee get in touch with the situ- ation, so as to look after the sup- plies of the board. The committee will deal with the question.
