[ Major Rorke explained how this indebt- L edness was acquired, and spoke of the [ high standing of the regiment. w.hich a few years ago bad taken tirst prize for being the best in all points on the camp grounds, He was sorry the regiment did not meet oftener in tea county, so that the people here could see it, which they i very seldom did. At the time referred to I the council gave a grant of 250 per day to the men, and good men were to be found at the camp drill. Since that time, how.. ever. the halfof the grant had been With- vdrawn. and this together with the poor l accommodation at camp had made it , hard to get men to attend camp. The officers had therefore found it necessary ‘ to supply better quarters ior the men in l the Way of a marquee tent for dining pur- poses and a steam cooking equipment. This cost the officers, according to rank, lfrom " to 520 per year; and when all I was told they gave their services to the country and got nothing in return. The I revote of the balance left over this your would do much to relieve the ottieera from ' this indebtedness. Major Rorke also re- 1 feired to the representation which the Iregiment had in South Africa and the strong desire there had been among others i to go who were not allowed to do so ; Capt, MacKay saida very strong 'de- l putation had been appointed to wait on ithe council concerning this matter.

The Cost to otiicers last year had been 812o in round numbers. The regiment was the only one on the camp ground in which all the grant was expended on the men. and the odious got nothing out of it. ) Uwiug to the small number in attendance i at drill tins year only about 898 had been i expended oatof the grant, and a revote l of the balance was wha: the regiment I' desired.

He also advised that nduntage should be taken of the provision in the Act which allows the coat of maintenance of children who have been sent to industrial schools. to be levied on such parents as are able to pay for such maintenance. He knew cases where people had their children sent to industrial schools as unumnace-‘ able. At these schools the county paid for their support. while the parents may be going about well dressed and having a good time.
