Iu the sante time the defalcation. of municipal officers, according to a return brought down -last session, amounted to $273,754.61." Empty declamation is about all there is in the charges against the Mgwa't Government, and there is considerable force in the following, from the Toron- to Telegram, (Independent Conserva- tive):— . "Tlie Opposition will have to pro- duce facts to support• its claim that Sir Oliver Mowat has not given On- tario honest and reasonably economi- cal government. Declamation will not do the work that must be done before Mowat goes. Attacks upon the __.--:-admiYristrative-recotchnof the _Rover n - ment are useless in the absence of spe- cific cases of extravagance and dis- honesty. Statements that the dishon- esty is there, but that the Opposition is not smart enough to discover eviden- ces of it, do not strengthen the case against Mowat. A smart Government cannot do great wrong and escape ex- posure at the hands. of a dull Opposi- tion. Would an Opposition that is not smart enough to expose the wrong- doing of a Government be srnart enough to escape doing wrong if it were a Government? , sTATEMEN1' ar" FINANCES, $tm4 m m•g'.ei p`a g r m :.:^1 Ct' • I E„+ ee W �,, ee .1-k -J tri( faience ,+ W01%itgOena G.Wtaal m : ,p c? en -a seas ge ser Ce was from 1892 cn es W u se W rte era to re gs V • ,P C.

The increase in expenditure has been caused' mainly by improving the school houses, putting in new desks, and building new school houses; it has certainly not been in increased salaries. , . STATISTIC» OF ATTENDANCE FOR 1893. •C 'O iso .ted School Inspector's Reports. The following is the report of School In - specter Tom for West Huron, for 1893:— The data upon which this report is founded are mainly the .school returns from the several school sections, compiledby the trustees and the teachere, and from infor- mation taken by the assessors, and for- warded to my office by the township clerks. f neatly d Lheangreater correctly filled, oth ugh f the reports ten per cent of them are carelessly and in- correctly done. Every' item in these re. ports should be clearly and definitely an- swered, and, where possible, should be an- ewered in figures. The returns from assees- ment rolls Bent in by the township clerks were, from three of the municipalities,. in- complete, and from some of the others plainly incorrect. These errors are some- times attended with serious financial lose, when statistics embodied in the roll are forwarded to the central Government. In the returns from many school sections the trustees neglect to give the names of their • secretary -treasurer, and teachers for the following year, as required by the statutes. For this reason communisations are often sent to the secretary of the previous year. I respectfully call the attention of all trustee boards and teachers to section 40 .(13) and section 206 of the Public Schools Act of 1891. If all will comply with these sections it will save mach delay and trou- ble in completing my reports, and sending out the orders for the half -yearly grants. In this age of cheap printing, and when tons of printed matter are being distributed free by our Governments, I believe the Education Department should be asked to furnish four copies of the School Act and regulations to each school section, one copy should be kept in the school house, and a copy held by each trustee. TEACHERS' INSTITUTES. During the year two very snecessfril in- stitute meetings, inwere held, the first at Exeter and the second at Goderich; 114 public school teachers attended ono or the ether or both of these meetings. Trustees would assist their schools very much by attending these meetings. By taking an aotive part in the discussions they weld(' benefit their schools and encourage pupils and teachers in their work. INSPECTION. I visited every school twice and several of them' three times during the year. Of the 126 teachers employed, 116 were doing faithful work.. Many of them are excellent teachers. Six ?were lacking in literary training or aptitude to teach, and should. go into some other work, or improve their qualifications. Four did not appear into. rested in their work, beyond collecting their salaries, and did not strive to advance or educate their pupils as they should do. Only three of the ten who werenot doing satisfactory work are remaining in the in- spectorate, and one of them is in another school, where I hope better work will be done. Lack of method, want of discipline, no enthusiasm, and not being thorough in the work, are the main causes of failure. I believe there is as large a percentage of good teachers in West Huron as in any in- spectorate in the Province. I have always found the majority of trustees and teachers willing and'.anxious to carry out any suggestions for the ad- vanbement of pupils, or the improvement of the school house, seating, etc. Nearly $60,000 is spent each year on the public schools of West Enron, and I have tried to do all I can to make the benefits to the pupils as great as possible. If, in some oases, it has been felt that 1have been very exacting in examining the pupils' work and progress made, it is because I recognize my responsibility to the parents and children. c c5 Rte0 ,_, V y0 AY,p U .-h ti^e •s O.41 Cao c§ = "3' r.o ,d e�o dull d d V des eta d VV Ashfield Colborne Goderich T'p ...

In the former 11 pupils attended over 200 days, and in the latter, 29 pupils. Regularity and progress depend largely on the parents' interest in their children, but even more on a' diligent, energetic, thorough teacher. CLASSIFICATION AND COST PER PUPIL.

Mr John Short, of the township of gay, has .recently purchased a fine village lot from Mr T.

Mr Joseph Fisher has rented Mr Robb's farm, Chiselhurst, for one year, paying a rental of $150. The farm con- tains 70 acres. Mr Robb retains the use of the house. Mr Thos. Neilans, who for twenty years has been conveyor of Her Ma- Hesty's mails between Seaforth and arlock, has had his contract renewed for the next four years. Mr Neilans has given such faithful service that the Department never' made any fuss about renewing his contract. " ',lo ggn x i 4 out oris MANN SSU' Sc $?CUJ'T.

No. 2 ws.s changed to a R. C. separate school at the beginning of 1893. Another separate school section was formed out of parts of S.S. No. 1, Hay and Stanley and No. 11, Hay. This reduced S. S. No. 11, Hay, to 1450 acres. . Arbitrators appointed by the townships of Hay, Stephen and Bosanquet met at Grand Bend, Aug. 23rd, 1893, and formed a school nation, to be known as No. 15, Hay and Stephen. This section was form- ed out of parts of Nos. 8, 11 and 12, Steph- en, and part of No. 5, Iday. Arbitrators appointed by the county council of Huron at the June session, 1893, met at Zurich, September 16th, 1893, and united the remaining portion of No. 5, Hay, to No. 11, Hay, thus increasing No. 11, Hay, from 1450 acres to about 3450 acres. I believe the re -arrangement of the sec- tions in the western parts .of Hay and, Stephen will place a school house within a reasonable distance of each family in these sections, and also makes each section' of fair size. These changes have not increased the number of school sections. There are now 9.2 rural school corporations in this inspectorate, at the end of 1892 there were ell rural sections.

IN REPLY TO OFT REPEATED QUESTIONS. It may be well to state, Scott's Emulsion acts as a food as well as a medicine, build- ing up the wasted tissues and restoring per- fect health after wasting fever. There are at present 95 school houses in I Ibis division, of which 36 are brick, 3 stone, 35 frame and 1 log, all these are free hold, except No. 13, East Wawanosh. The esti- mated value of these houses and grounds is $95,300, and of the equipment and furni. tore, $12,570. New school houses (veneered with brick) were erected during the year 1893 in S. S. No. 3, Ashfield, and in S.S. No. 1, Hay and Stanley. The one built in No. 1, Hay and Stanley cost about 31000. This sum in• eludes the cost of seating. I consider this school one of the best school houses in this inspectorate. It is finished inside in ash, with arched ceiling, and is seated with finely finished desks, having automatic di• ,. aided seats.•, No. 1, Stephen, No. 4, Usborne, and No. 13, Aslitield, have the same kind of desks. These de°ke cost a little more than other desks, btit are far more comfortable and convenient, and are firmer, L» they have an extra foot fastened to the Noor in the cen• ere. Trustees requiring new desks should see these before purchasing. New single desks bave been put in the 5th and 4th , class rooms of the Exeter sohool.
