ANDERSON, Chairman. as a basis. a four roomed school w: necessary. Mr. Flzwelle thought that the com- parison was hardly a. fair one, as in an ordinary village the separate school pupils would not be taken out. He thought that one more teacher would be sufficient, as by “breaking” the hours 160 pupils could be accmnodated. Mr. Anderson said they did not want to crowd the rooms to save teachers‘ and the additional cost fur the lmger school was so small that it was thought better to go ahead. Col. "Deacon raid that was a matter of detail for the committee and the architect. ADOPTED. On motion the report was read and adopted; clause by clause. BUILDING COMMITTEE.

SOME POINTERS; 'Chairman McNeillie said that the principal suggested large. roomy rooms. The law provided for forty pupils in a room.

Mr. Andaman replied that they had. but the difference was so slight that they preferred to look ahead. If a village of the same size as the east ward was taken Mr Stewart regarded an empty room as a great temptntlon to the board to emph )y ianoth er teach er. Col. Deacon suggested that the rooms be re-arranged so that pupils from the other wards can be sent to the east ward. as pupils are now sent from the east to the other wards. Mr. McLaughlin said they were only ward schools in name and if a. new school is built; the others will be relieved. Mr. Stewart thought it would bea. good idqa: togrrfmge‘ s_qhool_ gispricts.

The animal did not relish this and before Mr. Hawkins could remedy the difficulty, the horse’s hind heels flew in the air and M r. Hawkins was struck on the right shin, making a clear break. Assistance was soon at hand, and the sufferer was removed to his residence, where he is resting quietly. BROKE HIS ARM. The first serious accident of the season, alongthe water front occurred on Saturday, when Mr. Thos. English had one of his arms broken, at the wrist. He was working at the Cran- della, putting new blades on a paddle wheel and was at the top, with the wheel at the balance. The wheel went down and his arm was caught between the side of a paddle and a. beam, breaking the wrist and lascerating the hand.

On Wednesday mg'n, of la“ week, just after we went to preas, Mr. Austin Campbell, an employee at the Rathbun Co’s saw mill, got his left hand in front of the buzz saw, with the result that the fingers were amputated. A couple of surgeons were called in to attend the sufferer, who is doing nicely. THROWN FROM HIS HORSE. On Thursday evening, a fourteen year old son of the Rev. Mr. Campbell, of the Cam- bridge St. Methodist church was out riding on horseback. \Vhile he was going at a good speed, the saddle girth broke and the rider was thrown to the ground underneath the horse’s feet. I'Iis feet were in the stirrups and although the horse walked his prostrate body several times he escaped injury. The youth was dazed for a time, but soon recovered, His escape from death or serious injury may indeed be termed miraculous. On Friday last Mr. Henry Hart, one of ths best known farmers of the Township of Man- Vers, living near Fleetwood was kicked bya Colt and as a result, he died on Sunday. Mr. Hart was leading the animal from the barn to the pump, which was close to his dwelling, when he was suddenly kicked in the abdomen. Medical aid was immediately summoned, but despite the host efl‘orts of his physicians, he ex- pired two days after the occurrenc. They de- ceased wa: about 50 years of age and was well known and highly esteemed having resided in the township all his life, and the funeral on Tuesday was largely attended.
