PIn Miss O'Neil's room, order, dia-

g ly satisfactory. There are two classes
nit this room viz.: -.a Junior 4th clabs
of 27 and a Senior 3rd class of 25, • The
average number present is 42.
a Missy Wilson has two Third Book
t classes in her room -a senior class of
25, and a JunIOK Class of 26. Usually
about 45 pupils are present. The en -
1 tire work of this room is also quite
satisfactory,
' Miss McKay has 51 names on the
fregister of her room. The pupils:-
two divisions of the The
Third
Class, are usually all present but
three or, four. The entire work of
? this room is yperfectly satisfactory,
Miss Stouts room is made tip of two
r divisions of she Senior Second Class.
r There are 62 names on the roll and
usually about 58 pupils present. This
teacher -seem, to be doing perfectly,
satisfactory work. The order, disci-
pline and management all seem good -
quite satisfactory
Miss Shepherd has three classes in
her room: -,L Junior Second Class of
20 pupils and two Part lI Classes of 40
P11
pils, 60 pupils all told. The work in
this room is good and the order. disci-
pline and management satisfactory.
Miss Doherty has three classes in
her room -a Part II of 25 pupils and
two Part 1 classes of 86 pupils -61 in
all. The pupils are usually all present
except about three. The teaching, or-
der, discipline and management in the
room is satisfactory.
There are 67 names on the register
in Mies Taylor's room, and usually
about 62 pupils are present. There are
four claeses in this room all in Part I
of the First Book. The order, disci=
pline, management and work of this
roorn are all perfectly satisfactory.
If no change is made in your staff of
teachers you will have an excellent
school next year.
I am of the opinion that all vacan-
cies on the staff in future should be
filled up by the appointment of Nor-
mal trained teachers. The Wingham
and Seaforth Public Schools havenone
but Second Class teacherg on their
staffs.
The aggregate of salaries to he paid
in Wingham next year is $3,14Fi in
Clinton $2900.
WAS INSURED. - The late Mrs H.R.
Walker was a member of the Canadian
Order of Horne Circles, and carried an
insurance of $3000 on her life. This is
the limit that can be carried in this so-
ciety. Herdeath is t.be second one that
has occurred among the mernbers;here,
the other also being that of a married
woman.
MOVED. -On Monday Mr J. Forden
