four hold bachelor of arts degrees.
During the year the township grant
was restored to 90 ,per cent •of the
former level and is .now $5140 'for each
.principal teacher and ,$3160 for each
assistant teacher. For this reason
'boards were enabled to pay higher
salaries. The lowest salary '.being paid
in this area'is 1$600, while the average
for .all rural schools is $71118, an in-
crease of 1$60 over the former - year.
In the urban schools the average sal-
ary this year is $977. There are. now
;practically no unemployed teachers
in the 'district, and as the attendee -ice
at 'normal schools is 'below the aver-
age this year a shortage of teachers
may be 'felt in the near future.
A marked decrease in the attend-
ance in rural schools was noted and
there are few of then in excess of 30
•pupils. In the. Inspectorate there are
five sc'hoo'ls with an attendance of
ten or less.
The attendance in the schools last
year was well above the provincial
average. Only one township,. West
Wawanosh, was 'below 90 per cent,
and 'Usborne led all the others with
the ppercenta'ge of 92..52. Hensall sr -
ban school was a leader with 95.09
per cent, the highest percentage of
attenance attained ''by an 'urban
school in this district for many years.
'Phe total legislative and county
,grants received 'by all schools in the
district last year was $21,9142,88, an
increase of rover $3,000 over 40317,
Mr. Beacom expressed the opinion
that the new courses of study repre-
sented a distinct improvement over
the former courses as they lay 'great-
er emphasis on the 'developing, of the
individuality of the ,pupil, on learning
by doing rather than being passive
recipients of information and much
less stress on examinations.
Following the introduction of the
subjects of -home Economics and
Manual Training by Mr. -Beacom,
many reeves expressed opinions on
the results of and their effect on the
pupils who were taking the courses,
many of whorl would learn by the
'use of the expensive equipment pro-
vided, but would be unable to have
such appliances in their homes; that
children would become dissatisfied
and desire to 'leave home.
Some reeves could see no advant-
age excepting that the equipment in
the schools provided good advertis-
ing for the firms selling it;. but others
felt the course a good one and pupils
could easily adjust 'tlieimierees to con-
ditions, A cordial vote of ,thanks was
extended to Mr. Beacom.

Permanent 'improvements to our
uc
road system have been reduced ed to a
misinumt for many years, and the
work that was done in years gone by
was 'largely on r'oa'ds since assumed
'by the department of highways. Re-
striction of.costly work on train roads
was a logical procedure as long as the
policy of :the Department of High-
ways appeared to be in the line of
assuming many of the heaviest travel-
led roads. 'Since it •appears that the
province has assumed all of the roads
that it is likely to take over for a
long time, and since this County has
been relieved of a fair portion, an
opportunity is provided to look over
the requirements of our county roads,
without, considering the probability
of assumption as provincial highways.
Other forms of maintenance work
must he carried on. The value of our
weed spraying will not be apparent
until Spring, bait it is expected to .be
such that a program similar to that
of 1938 will be found advisable.
A substantial number of signs, were
erected last year; but the conclusion
meat be reached that in order to give
protection, 'that atop signs should be
erected on all county roads, and that
much more should ,be done in the
matter of signs on our roads.
All old gautrd fences should 'be re-
built .10 a substantial manner.
In connection 'w'ith snow plowing
and winter roads, we 'find the de-
mands increasing so that when storms
of long duration occur, proper service
cannot he supplied with the equip-
ment ava'ila'ble. Two more snowplows
should 'be purchased„'but it is expect-
ed that special trucks will be needed.
Consideration should also he :given
to the matter of !providing garage and
repair accommodation for the county
road equipment.
