The sympathy of the connnunity
goes .-out to Mr, and Mrs, Wilfred

up from Biigden on Sunday.

beau-
tiful
u-
tiful
and impressive. Rev. C. W. De-
Witt Cosens chose scripture pas-
sages from old and new testtament
applicable to the ,occasion and con-
taining comfortable thoughts for
the sorrowing parents and friends.
He chiefly based his remarks on
the words spoken by David to his
household after the passing of a
loved child. "He cannot return to
lie, but I shall go to Hirer.". Mr,
Cosens was assisted in the service
by Rev. C. E. Dougan, Presbyterian
minister and the bereaved parents,
nearest neighbors who offered pray-
er and gave a brief but very impres.'
sive address. A touching feature of
the service ivas the singing by El-
eanor and Marguerite Cosens of a
beautiful little child's hymn "Jesus
wants me for a Sunbeam," Little
Joanne was very pretty in her casket
of white with beautiful flowers sur-
rounding: Interment was made in
the family plot in Clinton cemetery.

"The Public School Board,
Clinton, Ont.
Dear Sirs: -
I visited your school as stated on
another sheet and spent the allotted
time in its inspection.
The re -arrangement of the glasses.
among seven teachers naturally led
to some difficulties and inequalities;
the only class that wasaffected ser,
iously was Miss Courtiee's, she was
left with two forms, whereas the oth-
er teachers have only the one form.
However, the reduction of staff was
justified as the attendance has shown,
a considerable reduction.
The awarding of certificates has
worked out well for, the deserving
pupilsof the entrance class -four,
teen being thus granted their certi-
ficates without examination.
Your staff is a good average---/
some members of it excel; they work
harmoniouly together and are de-
voted to duties.
The attendance is •very regular -it
stands in this respect among the
highest in the province. This is
creditable to all concerned.
The caretaking is well done^, the
school is kept clean and comfortable.
'yours respectfully,
JOHN 51. FIELD.
