addressed the council in regard to the

Dr, Matheson and R. S. Box, repre-
senting St. Marys' Collegiate Institute
waited ou the council in reference to the
attendance of pupils from this .county
at that Institute. They notified the
council that in accordance with the
statute this county would be °ailed up-
on for the payment of the balance of the
proportionate cost of maintenance for
these pupils over the amount received
from them in fees. It was pointed out
that there might be a balancing claim
against the county of Perth on account
of pupils from that county attending the
Seaforth Institute, and the council
decided to take no action until the mat-
ter was looked into, Accordingly a
reference was made to the executive
committee, which recommended no
action at this session, as these school
matters would come up for considera-
tion at the January session of the
council

cause of death was diphtheria, with

The Model school term closed last
week and the exams. are now on and
will continue next week. Of the twen-
ty-six teachers in training fourteen have
secured schools and three of the remain-
der are not seeking situations at the
present time. Salaries are a trifle high-
er than last year, but not nearly high
enough yet, the teachers think.
