LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Dear Mr.TEditor:^
I beg your permission to make a
statement to the Ratepayers of the
Village-in. regard to the‘much di^-»
cussed raise in the School? rate; what
caused it, and also what it ariiounted
to/.'."' < . j / ■ •. 77 ,r-:"7
In the first place: The School Au-
/thoritiesTiri- -thewDeptj-of Education
decided to-• cut ' the Grants to the
Schools of the Province to. the extent
of *20% but gave-no notice to School
Secretaries. Only whep the Grants
arrived late in December qf last year,
three months after we had our Re
quisition before the Council to meet
our closing year’s ?rieed, did we learn
of the Jcut of. $235.47. . -
In September last, year the Board
placed a new teacher in the Science

-tban the—former—teaehef—Jiad asked -
, for; ThisTamounted tbTfH^OS’micITasv"
the Board, not thinking of any short;-
* age atjihat tjirie, was auxious to have 1
the High school properly equipped? '
in view of the fact that an effort was
being made to Jiave our ’Cbhtjriuatiori
school rqised to thev status of a High
school; ^he-abdye^umv-Was-Wt' pared?
down.-
Two- years ago the heating system
went a bit/wrong and the circulation
wasunsatisfactory.-TheBoardsought-
advice' (from very many quarters,
.too many to mention; sufficient to say,
’they gave the contract to the lowest
bidder that gave absolute guarantee
that it would function. Now this re
modeling cost $$15.00. 7,
Now on top of these, unusual things
occurred, a very cold winter; maybe
the coldest in the meriiOry of the
oldest citizen. Now this accounts for
the'very heavy bill for fuel. Qne
year we sailed through with a bill
of $365.'f Or fuel, while .'this last year
the cost, ran up to $855.91. No-w the
Board could/not in,any way fQr&xask
thesehapheniiigs.Andthef d
were othef costs incurred by way of
supplies which did not amount to very
Tmuch. but might have been pared
down if the Board had ..only known.
Now notwithstanding all that heavy
outlay, * $y ecOriomy and financing
when theyxcame to” the New Year the
carryover was* only $1157, last year,
and was.still reduced in August t°
$957. At this tittie we could riot see
where we could reduce it any more
for this year. Now the, Secretary
advised strongly that We do riot ask
the Council for more than one third
of .the remaining debt which would
have ammounted' to $319.: of ah ad
dition to this year’s School Tax. But
we were defeated in our effort to ac
complish this, with the / resu.lt that
the- whole' amount was pu|;_on. this
year’s taxes. We knew x the people
would, be, upTvjn-arnis against* this
ihcrease in a bad y^ar, but some ttien
insisted .that* it was good business to
balance* the budget, and that meant
at atty, cost in ta^es,
^.Now WO just finished ^ the report
for thes year to . the Department of
Education and we, show a’Cash bal

why did you ask for so much money
fropi the Council, The answer is
simply this, it Wa§ hot in sight. There
is" still much/more that we would be;
glad to* consider iri cohhection with
,the. interest of ^the school, but tiirie

This"issue of The Sentinel is print
ed on a I.ee Press,, which was installed
ip this office the Jast of the, week by
working days arid* nights. ”
Following our last issue the old
Campbell pfess^ a popular press
three score years ago, was dismantled
mostly by the use of sledge hamn^ers.
The old press had served its time
and ^was worn out, so much so, that
recently we doubted each week if ’’if
..wpuld hold otft until our issue was
run-off. v 7.;*
The old Cafhpbell press fias‘ p61Tibly
been in operation in the Sentinel office
for 40 years, we cannot determine
exactly when »it was, installed, but
came . along as .a successor to the
Washington hand press., -
^‘Jock” Adams and? the old press
^irere intimately associated,' for “Jock”
we are often told was the man power
that. operate^ the press' fot. many
years. Later a gasoline engine”" re
placed Jock and of recent year’s an
electric motor has been the driving
.power. *, '.
The newly installed Lee is a coni^
pact press, believed amply large/for
the demands of this office. It occup
ies a flobr space of—only—about7-9-
by § feet* but* has -a weight of over
two and a ffhalf tons. “ /■'.-
It is a bwo-rbvdlution press, cap
able of a maximum speed of upwards
to 25007copies an hour. This will b£
an experimentary issue5*this week and
doubtless minor ink distribution and
roller adjustments: wilt be; necessary
before the.: best prittting results- will
be obtained.
