requited in the senior division. These
matters were referred to the con-

Inspector Tom reported as foliose' :
To the Chairman and .Members of the Uoderich
Public School Board.
GENTLEMEN. -1 have the honor to
submit for your consideration my
,,report on the condition of your schools
for the past terul.
THE CENTRAL !SCHOOL.
The recent improvements to this
school have 'nude the chute -rooms
more attractive and eowfortahle for
the pupils and teachers. The heating.
ventilating an lighting, and the plac-
ing of closets in onnect ion with the
school building h e added greatly to
the comfort dud health of the chil-
dren. The removal of the old closets
has improved the appe - : me of the
grounds and removed a source of
trouble..
That the roof leaks so tadly . using
the unsightly discolorations of th - ceil-
ing and walls of the upper rooms i
be regretted. The frequent wettin
of the plaster has caused some of it to
drop off.
The keeping of a supply of water in
the furnace tanks should prevent
further shrinking of the blackboards,
wainscoting, etc., and also provide
the pupils with air containing the
required amount of moisture.
The teachers and pupils of the Cen-
tral school are to be commended for
keeping the walls and closets so clean
and free from disfigurement.
Your excellent caretaker is a model
of neatness and orderliness. He keeps
the grounds and the whole. building.
including the basement, -clean and in
perfect. order.
ST. ANDREW'M)tCHOOL.
The boles in the foundation must be
tightly closed in winter to keep the
floors warns. The roof leaks. Some
boards in the ceiling are loose. The
glass in the woodshed windows are
smashed. The closets are in a dis-
graceful state, being often unfit for
hildren Lo use. One door is off the
ages and the other will not fasten.
no loth closets are filled with snow on
oto •ny day's. it is necessary to
divi them into two compartments
and arrange the doors so that the
snow canot gist in. I can give you
a suitabl\.tan.

THE DUNLOP TOMB.
Suggestion for Establishing Public Park
Approved -Let. Us Heafrfrom Others.
ti. 13. \\;illi+uus, of Dunlop, writes in
endoraation of the proposal put forth
in The Signal last week for the pre-
servatioa of the plot of land surround-
ing the Dunlop tomb at 8altforl as a
public Mark. He says that with it
little expense a neat little park rtluld
he made, and its it would be on the
road leading to Mere -setting Park and
the Point Farm the tunny- summer
tourists who visit these resorts would
find it it convenient and interesting
stopping -place on their way. From
the hill beside the Minh, too, there is
a magnificent view of the harbor,
with its vessels entering and leaving.
and of the two railway lines. one on
either side of the river. It Was Drs
Dunlop, Mr. Williams points out, who
laid theYoundation of the present pros-
Iperity of this district. and a statue to
sis memory standing in it memorial
park within sight and sound of the
busy county town would he entirely
in place. It would show that his
labors are not forgotten by the chil-
dren of the pioneers.
Rev. John Morrison, of lumber,
whose letter suggesting the reserving
of the Inscription on the Dunlop' tomb
wits publishes last week. writes as
follows eoncernidg the project of
establishing it park :
••i assure . you the proposal you

Tile Signet would be glad to hear
from others in reference to the pro-
posal and regarding means of cat -lying
