The somber ot schools In operation, namely. eighty-nine rural and four ur- ban, remains the same as for some years. 1a these schools, 125 teachers are regularly employed, there having been no reduction in the staff of any school since my appolntmost as inspec- tor. 1n the case of a few two or three room rural schools, there baa been an agitation. from time to time, for a decrease is staff, but is so CALM has the enrolment shrunk to amcb an extent that such a course would seem desir- able. Is snob schools, it is worthy of note that the additional government township (Teats practically pay for the cervices of the atdltional teacher. while the pupils are benefitting from the greater time given ss instruction to each grab, ander the present ar- rangements. No action bas been taken by the Department of lfducatioe during the year to implement the legislation now in effect making it possible te close the wailer rural scboois. There aro five schools la the district that had Nes than as average attimdance of tea during 110 year, and K is undoubted - 4. true that the pupils 1n these schools are mit deriving tee bmssfit from their sshssl 11fs that woad result from at- tendance at a stool with a larger en- rolment. k 1s invariably Fouad, bow - mer, that there is a strong local 09- -oon to the closers of any school. and it would seem that the matter of dasher such schools would have to be compulsory before any improvement is this regard can be affected.
