He said so indirectly. But there was no mistaking his meaning. His retirement as prime minister, he said, will depend partly on "cir- cumstances in other parts of the world and . great matters of state which no prime minister can shirk ip times like the present." That, as was interpreted immed- iately, referred to the trouble-packed international situation.

Mr Herb Morrie was awarded contract at U 11 end L. 16, the board to supply paint here In reviewing sortie the insurance policies the board felt that came of the school buildings were not insured for enough in -case of less by tire. Re- cent e.timates on 1 raien scheole would at present hieli prices i,t bui1,1- •ing cost as high as $22,000 to build today. As a result some of the insur- ance policies are to -be increased. A petition to keep No. S 11 open and a delegation requesting the m- ooning S 10 was received. The Board carefully considering the views put forward in respect to each school. After exploring all points and angles the Board decided not to open above schools in Sept. and arrange for trans- portation of the pupils to other schools. The average cost in 1047 to operate -one school was $2300. The prospects are that 1048 cost will be $2500 per School, based on new increase in sal- aries, The average cost per pupil in the area in 1947 was 8115 each, but a school with only seven on the roll the average cost per pupil would be $857. The Board -does not like the idea of having to close any school, but it is felt a better all rated trainite; can lac given in a school WW1 a larger at- tendance, as Well as making a saving to the ratepayers. A new revised -set of books of Keowledge with a set of Lends an d peonies have been ordered for each school for Sept. CONVICTED FOR RECKLESS-DRIVING George Habkirk Fined $100 and License Suspended .
