Campbell, Provincial good roads commissioner, was present, and addressed the council in regard to the Act of Legislature by which $1,000,000 has been sot aside for the improvement of the roads of the province, Huron's share would be about $40,000, and the council was advised to take such steps. in the institution of a system of county, roads as would entitle it to draw this amount from the Provincial fund, 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 Clinton. At last Thursday night's meeting of the Public school board Miss Combe, one of the assistant teachers, tendered her resiguation, owing to ill health.

In playing with fire on Tuesday even- iug a young lad who is visitiug at Mr. John Jackson's unthinkingly threw a blazing stick into the wood -box, It ignited the conteuts and before the flames could be subdued they had burn- ed the wainscotting, etc. The many friends of Mr. George Harland, formerly of Clinton, but now a citizen of Detroit, will regret to learn of the death of his two sous, Basil, aged seven, and Marr, two years younger, which took place within one week. The cause of death was diphtheria, with which Mrs. Harland is also confined to he hospital. 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. The annual meeting of the Dominion Draft Horse Society was held at the Rattenbury House.
