The annual meeting of the rate payers -of school section No, 1 Stanley was held ,on Wednesday, December 27111, 1916, when a considerable amount of business of importance was transacted, the most unique being the resignation of Mr. Malcolm McEwan front the school board, after a continuous service of 40 years. This resignation coning so soon after that of Mr. Bairn who served so faith fully as teacher in this section for half a century, finds we think no parallel in the history of the public school of Ontario„ Their work together as teachers in the ,Sabbath School, held in the school room for eight months of the year, has been an influence for good Chat cannot be told, The passing of Mr. McEwen from the school hoard will leave a gap not easily filled, Acting as Secretary Treasurer fqr so long a term, he has held the best interests of the school at heart, and the esteem and confidence of the people. IIts retirement was accepted with much reluctance by the board of ratepayers in general, but owing to ill health he 1 felt unable to continue. Mr. Alex.
