The counties of Huron and Bruce operate under different assessment manuals,, and it was felt that in fair- ness to the municipalities concerned, the assessments should be equalized in some way, Alex Alexander, Huron county asses- sor, stated that considering the dif- ference in manuals and the fact that there was a difference of four years between the assessments of Teeswater and Brussels, he was surprised that the existing assessments were so near- ly equal. Following the meeting members of the committee went out with the two assessors to satisfy themselves on the report that had been given them. Mayor DeWitt Miller, secretary of the committee, reported that the findings of the committees closely paralleled those of the assessors, The re-assessment of the town of Wingham is proceeding and has reach- ed the stage when; one ward of the five has been already re-assessed. It is expected that the re-assessment of the whele town will not be completed until - early September. The wont is being carried out by town assessor William Haney in co-operation with county assessor Alex Alexander, fol- lowng the Huron county manual. The assessment committee is ex- pected to call a meeting of the boards of the municipalities next month to present their report on the assessment situation, at which time it is hoped the municipalities can come to some agreement on the building of the new school. Members of the assessment commit- tee are Harvey Johnston, chairman, DeWitt Miller, secretary, Wm. Fisher, Culross, Harry Gowdy, Howick, Ever- ett Finnegan and Alex Alexander, DL IFKIBBON HURT AS CAR OVER:MINS The following were winners in the Music Festival, held Thursday, May 7th.

The closing of the Grade 9 class at the Teeswater High School at the end of the school. year was forshadowed at the regular meeting of the High School board last week, when mem- bers voted to move the class to Wing ham unless a teacher is obtained for the grade 10 class there within two weeks. The board has been advertising for such a teacher since February, but has received no applications for the job, At present there is only one class being conducted at, the school, under the direction of Mr. Chas. Ander- son. Members of the, board seemed to feel that if no teacher as obtained for Grade.10, and-the school is conducted with only one class, as it is at present,. it would be more economical to close the school entirely. There are only 28 pupilei enrolled there this year, If the Grade 9 class is brought to Wingbaxn. Mr, Anderson will be taken on the staff of the Wingbam District High School, here. A delegation from the teachers of the High School was present at the meeting to present their case on the question of salaries. They asked for, and received a $100 a year increase over and above their yearly increment of $200, and in the case of one teacher the raise was, $150 to place him on a more equitable footing with new tea- chers starting at higher rates. The board also moved to appoint Frank Madill assistant principal, with a $200 aayear raise accompanying the post, The application of John E. Heney, at, present teaching in Burke Falls, for the position of physical education in- structor, left vacant by the resigna- tion, of Mr. G. Higenell, was accepted and Mr. Haney will commence teach- ing this fall at a salary of $3,100. It was decided to advertise for a History teacher to take the place of Mr. Tur- ner, who is resigning to go to Sarnia. A letter from the assessment com- mittee, appointed at the meeting of the Wingham and district municipal councils to look into assessments in the High School 'district, was received. The committee asked that the Wing- ham District High School board as- sume responsibility for expenses in- curred by members of the committee in matters pertaining to the assess- ment question, The board agreed to reimburse membere of the committee for his work. Chairman James Armstrong wel- comed R. S, Hetherington, a new member of the board, who is taking the place of G. C. Game-loge a,s repre- sentative of the town council. Principal W. S.
