Dated at Wingham, this isth day of No- vember, A.D. 1905. • DiOleiNsoN sz HOLMES, Solicitors for Executor. Shall We Have a High School? (Continued from Page 1) for 30 years—$200 for Sinking Fund as provided by law, and $480 for interest, which means a little less than One mill increase in taxation. Now in regard to maintenance, the Government grants not less than $875 to every High School in the Province. In addition to this, the Government allows 10% upon the aggregate of teachers' salaries up to $6,000, 10% up- on equipment up to $3,200 and a maximum of $150 on school building and grounds. Moreover any sum left out of the monies set apart for High - School purposes after the Government . grants have been made, is divided among the High Schools and Col- legiate Institutes pro -rata according to attendance. Then in addition, the county grant must equal the Govern- ment grant. The law also provides, that where there is a large number of county pupils, the county must in- crease this grant. ,As we are close to the county of Bruce, we would un- doubtedly receive quite a munber of pupils from there, and in such cases provision is made by law for a grant from that county as well. Non-resi- dent pupils pay fees, town pupils may or may not pay fees, as the town directs. Kincardine is so well pleased with its High School that it is now building an addition, to cost several thousand dollars. When Harriston High School was destroyed:by fire 2 or 3 years ago, they started to rebuild before the bricks got cold. Towns having these institutions appreciate their value, and seein to look upon them as among their most important assets. Kincar- dine High School cost the town only $1,100 last year, while our Continua, tion classes I am informed are costing us $175 over and above all govern- ment grants. Why not pay the dif- ference, even if it were necessary, and have the advantages? The distribu- tion, however, of the money paid by a few pupils in town for board, would equalize this amount. We have now, I understand, 00 pupils in this town taking partial High School work. If we build a High School, we will have 200 pupils inside of two years. I have now before me the report of a High School in a village in this Province, that had over 200 pupils last year. This High School received last year WO Government grant, $1,200 county grant, and $1,500 in fees, or more than enough to pay the teachers' salaries, without any direct drain upon the village, and this is a good deal of out- side money to throw into circulation iri a small village. As High teachers are for the most part married men, who have to rent houses and live, the greater part of this money is con- sequently distribtited in this village. We must not overlook either, the great influence for good in social and church work, exercised in the cm- rounity, by our present able staff of teachers; this beneficient effort would be further felt, increasing the Intel- leetual and snore' status of the town, by the addition to our population of a corps of educated men, suck as Nigh School teachers must be. The county of Huron is, we think at least, one of the finest counties in the ivitc6!i°tT17ai°gi we tlien berSas1e1n all r counties in the matter of education? We have only three High Schools, and they are all bunched together in the middle of the comity, while Bruce to the nortli of no has five High Schools, Wellington and Perth to east of us, five and four respectively, and the 'county of Middlesex to the south of us six High Sehools, How any sane man, who will take time to consider the question, can op. pose a Pigh School in this town is totally incomprehensible to itie. At the present juncture, it seems to me, that this school question is a, very im- portant matter in the history of the town. I hope the ratepayers may be persuaded to take an interest in it and to carefully consider the advisability of erecting a properly equipped High &hoed, rather than add two more rooms to present Public School build.

His handling of the business of the Church marked him as an ex- cellent financier. When you want a pleasant physic try Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets.

The Family Herald and Weekly Star of Montreal this week warns the pub- lic against falling into a simple error. There is another paper in Montreal with a somewhat similar name, but it is by no means the Family Herald and Weekly Star. When any canvasser calls be sure your receipt is for the Family Herald'the word "Family" must be used to get what you want. The Family Herald and Weekly Star is the big family and farm paper which gives that beautiful picture, "Queen Alexandra, Her Grandchildren and Dogs," free to all subscribers. It is the biggest dollar's worth ever offered, The Family Herald and Weekly Star have also issued the Farmers' Manual and Veterinary Guide, a book no far- mer can afford to be without. There is an enotmous rush of subscriptions to the Family Herald and Weekly Star this season, and the publishers are asking present subscribers to re- new well in advance, to help them out in the great rush, which will grow too when their beautiful pictnres are scat- tered throughout the country. The picture alone is said to be worth more than two dollars, yet one dollar will buy the paper for a year and the picture. Grey. Miss Lizzie McNaughton of Brussels is visiting her sister, Mrs. J.

From Napier, New Zealand, Herald: Two years ago the Pharmacy Board of New South Wales, Australia, had an analysis made, of all the cough medicines that were sold in that mar- ket. Out of the entire list they found only one that they declared was en- tirely free from all poisons. This ex- ception was Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, made by the Chamberlain Medicine Company, Des Moines, Iowa, U. S. A. The absence of all narcotics makes this remedy the safest and best that can be had; and it is with a feel- ing of security that any mother can give it..to her little ones.
