C. I. INSPECTOR'S REPORT
The report of Inspector A. J. Hus-
band on his"visit to the -Clinton Col-
legiate Institute on ' February:6th,
7th;`and 8th, is quite :favourable. A
summary of his remarks is as fol
lows:
"This school continues to be well
organized and managed,, and the tea-
.chess are discharging their duties: in
a painstaking manner. All: of the
teaching was satisfactory and the
discipline good. The pupils, toot.
seem to be impressed with the ser-
iousness of the work before then, and
they are, as a rule, making a good
response to the efforts of their tea-
chers.. It is pleasing to note the ap-
preciation of the new school that is
evident in the interest taken by the
pupils in the various phases . of its
work, as well as in the effort they are
malting to keep the desats and the
walls of the class -rooms and corrid-
ors free from marks of any kind.
The Principal and the staff are to
be congratulated for the efforts they
have made to bring into. the life• of
the school whatever would be of.ad-
vantage to the pupils. In this con-
nection I night mention the Literary
Society, the orchestra, the daily open -
leg exercises, and : the varied pro-
gramme of athletic activities."
The `inspector was well pleased
witlrthe tinerbuilding'provided'by.the
Board and on 'the whole, considered
the aeeoriiodation excellent,

THE EXTENSION LECTURE
Prof. 'MeIllwr:aith delivered a most
interesting lecture on "The Coastal.
Indians of British Columbia," in the
Collegiate' auditorium on Friday even-
ing last, in the University Extension
series --
Prof. Meillwraith, who spent some
time amongst these Indians on the
Coast, gathering data for the Cana -
diet Government, had a number of int
teresting views, which he exhibited to
illustrate his stories of the habits and
customs of these picturesque people,
who are fast disappearing from our
land. One hundred years ago there
were about 8000 .of them, situated in
about thirty. villages. Now :there are
little more than 300, in -one Village..
These people are very proud of
their race and Prof, Meillwraith said
every chief pf a family can tell you
just exactly on which mountain the
first member of his family appeared.
One'' man, who had told hint much of
his family history and the -traditions'
which had been handed .down to him,
asked about his family and'was rather
disappointed that he ., could trace,
it such a few generations back. Prof,
Mclllwraith afterwards' heard that
the chief fully expected that he would
trace his family right baek to Adam.
The Professor said the general op-
inion that these Indians are silent.
people, who know nothing of, laugh-
ter, is a mistake. He said, that the
reason of their silence in the presence
of whites is that, being a proud. people
and feeling that they are considered
inferior by. the whites, they are driv-
ed into. themselves and thus_ do not
show their real characteristics, until
you live'among them and became ac-
quainted with them. -
The Indians depend .almost entirely
on sahnon for their living, eating it
fresh all summer. together with ber,.
ries, etc., and dried and smoked in the
winter. There is quite a little cere-
mony about catching the first salmon
in the spring, as they consider the
fish" as a sort of supernatural pro
vision for their needs, and they have.
80 much respect for the fish that the
throwing of refuse or waste into the
rivers is not practised.
The lecture of Prof. Mclllwraitli
would give the impression that,'the
more these people are known the
y mord respect one would have f or.theni
which 7spro abI true of all people.
The address w_as inueh enjoyd by
all who heard it,-
March 9th Dr.' Sissons will
speak on a somewhat similiar sub -
?eel,. "Peculiar Peoples in the Canadian
West."
The death occurred inh
t e Torontd,
General hospital on Wednesday of.
last weeli, Feb. 22nd, of a. lady -well--
known in
ell--
known'in Clinton, Mrs, Isabella Brig-
ham.'
Mks. Brigham was a daughter of
the late William Cook of the Huron•
road,'west. of Clinton, 'where shespent
her ehildh'oed and early womanhood,.
While it is a' good many years since
-Mi s. Brigham lived here she visited
the hone locality quite frequently,
having many friends and a number'" of. •
relatives here.. She...was a woman of
very keen intellect and of ; gracious•
manner; she had travelled a -good dear
and her interesting personality anct
understanding won her"( lends where -
ever she went.
The funeral took place from the
home of a niece, Mrs.:J, S. Jeffrey,
241 Albany Avenue, Toronto, on Fri-
day, interment being made in St-
James'
tJanes' cemetery, Toronto. '
HOCKEY NOTES
Clinton journeyed to Listowel last
Friday night and received their first
bad defeat of the season. The two
strenuous' games with Wingham,
earlier in the week, and the slow,
tedious trip `to Listowel, left, their
,marks on the team, as they appeared
fagged' out, and were unable to hit ,
their stride.
The first period ended 8-1, the sec-
ond 8-2 and in the third Clinton did.
not allow them to gain on them, the,
-final score being 10-4,
Ross NcEwan.was the star for -the
locals as he scored three goals, and
turned in the only good exhibition, of
hockey.
Listowel played its return game
here with Clinton yesterday evening,
before a full -house and the people,
certainly received their money's
worth, as it was a fast, hard-fought
game from start-tn. finish. The Lis-
towel boys are a clean, speedy team,
but they were tot allowed to get
away like they did in Listowel for
Clinton kept them checked up fairly
well.
The score by periods was at the•
end of the first, 1-1; second, 6-4 for
Clinton, and final score was 6-5 for'
Listowel: r.
