S No. 10 .Glenelg and Egremont on Jan 28, E 1906. called by the trustees to discuss ithe School Act the following resolu- ’ tions were adopted. Moved by Arch MacCuaig, seconded by Thomas E Tucker : ‘1. That we approve of the clause referring to Township Councils col- lecting by a. general rate 3300 00 for each school within the township, as it tends to equalize the territory of the school sections as well as the school taxes. 2. But do object to collecting the additional sum of $200.00 for every assistant teacher in those schools. as there are no rural schools requiring more than one teacher excepting those in villages. Therefore we think it unreasonable to compel the ratepapers oi the whole township many of whom have difliculty in get- ting their own children to any school to pay the village school teacher. 3. That we object to the amend- ment to the clause referring to the dismissing the Inspectors, and do re- spectfully request that it be cancell- ed. As the people are more interest- ed in the welfare of their childred than the Inspectors or the Lieuten- ant Governor in Council, notwith- standing any claims or insinuations made to the contrary, therefore their co-Operation should be maintained. 4. That we resent to the clause referring to minimum salaries to 1.6n6hel’s and do respectfully request that it. be cancelled. As there is a great difierence in the usefulness of teachers it would be an injustice to some of them and would associate the teachers in the mind of the public with tyrants who do not scruple at robing loyal citizens of their «noney and honor. Also as rural school supporters have paid and are paying the lion’s share of the ed- ucation of our teachers and other professions as well, and as we bar none from the privileges that we en- joy ourselves. therefore we do resent to being compelled to supplement the earnings of those whom we have helped to educate at the expense of those whom we have not. 5. That the principle on which the Legislative'and County Grants are distributed is most despicable and would recommend that it be dis- tributed according to the per cent. of the whole number of children of school age in the section attending school and the work accomplished in each school and the minimum equip- ment. Thereby being directly an encouragement to ratepayers, teacher and pupils to co-operate for the ad- Vancement of education. 6. That we do not: approve of do- ing away with the Model Schools, as it. would be detremental to those of limited means, and our exyerience is that. they are the most successful. 7. That it is not the lack of our teachers’ qualifications is the cause of the poor prOgress made in rural schools. but the irregular attendance of the pupils. and generally the cause of the small attendance is the small profits in farming, therefore the children have to help. Also the course of studies laid out for the teacher by the Educational Depart- ment a great deal of which is more ornament than use to the average rural school pupil, who generally does not get past the Third Reader. and would suggest that more promi~ nence be given to Arithmetic, Writ- ing, Reading and Spelling and How we are Governed. 8. That a copy of this resolution be sent to “ The Durham Chronicle,” “The Durham Review,” "The Weekly‘Mail and Empire.” “The Weekly Globe.” and ”The Weekly Sun” for publication and Dr. Jamie. eon, M. P. P. respectfully requesting him to use his influence in maintain. ing the rights and honor of rural school supporters as well as other classes all of which is respectfully submitted.

Highgate. Feb. 2.â€"While the Township Council was in session this week, a telephone message was sent from Clearville stating that a wild man had taken possession of Ernest Morrison’s barn on Talbot stree. and refused to eat anything or leave the place. He had slept in the barn since ZSunday, keeping himself in hiding when any person came about. The Council ordered Constables Mac- Lean and Scott to go out and bring him to Highgate. The two constables drove out and found the fellow with his feet frozen and almost famished Mr. Morrison gave him an enormous meal, and after being thawed out he was brought to town and a charge of vagrancy laid against him before Magistrate McMackon. Pest and Laverton. The Council adjourned to try the case, and;;the prisoner gave his name as Benjamin Sletnin. He said he was 1.000 years old; had two Wives and killed them both; he also had 500 children, all cutting wood. He told the magiscrate he had run away from the London Asylum, but the officials of that institution were telephoned and replied they knew nothing about him. For safe-keeping he was sen- tenced to Chatham jail. for 30 days. during which time an efiort will be made to find out where he came from. The astonishment that he did not freeze to death was quickly dispelled when it was found be was “tied up and dressed” in two suits of under- clothes, three shirts, four vests, [our top coats, two overcoats and a smok- ing jacket, 'two pairs of socks, and two caps. Around his neck he had two yards of mosquito netting. He appeared to be about; 35 years old. about 5 feet 10 inches in height, and weighed 170 pounds (with the larger portion of his wardrobe ofi). He has had smallpox some time ago. as the pockmarks are plainly visible on his face and body.â€"Toronto Scar. ,‘Soags, waltzcs Undertaking Popular music. Barclay Bell ONE THOUSAND YEARS OLD.
