There is a lot that is not very nice in that incident. Where did the boy get the huning knife? Where did he learn to drive it into the torso of a human? How came he by that ungoverned temper? How came that motorist to have '.he privilege of taking a passenger into her car, a passenger that was a fugitive from justice?

Folk who have confidence in him heed his remarks and fall into loss. Is this man blameless? Should he have said, “I don’t know enough about it to say anything therefore I have nothing to say.” Or a new business is being form­ ed. Interested parties approach a man with a reputation for busi­ ness capacity and moral integrity, saying something like this. “You are interested in the progress of this locality. We have looked this proposed plan and we believe that it will prove a success, have little influence ourselves but you are well known. We launch our project much more successful if you Will place your name on the board of directors. You will have practically nothing to do. All we want is your influence.” The trusted man gives his name, the scheme is launched only to prove a failure, bringing down with it those who entered upon the scheme because the long- trusted man’s name was. on the list of directors, though he was screened from loss. Is this man to be excused because he did know what the firm was doing? Well scarcely.

This was referred to' the Education Commit­ tee to report at .this session. Dr. Fields, inspector of public Schools for East Huron and E. C Beacom, for West Huron,, gavs very complete reports on their inspector­ ates. The number of teachers in West Huron inspectorate is 125. Of the 22 teachers engaged last year, 16 held first class certificates, indicat­ ing the preference given to the higher certificate. The efficiency ol the instruction received in the schools of the inspectorates showed marked improvement. 'The salaries paid in the rura’ schools have been, as a general rule considerably reduced during the year. There are a number-of cases where the teachers are in receipt oi a salary of $600 per year and one instance where $5 40 is paid. The average for all rural schools is $79 6 as compared with $891 last year. Tt should be borne in mind by all the trustee boards that the $600' town­ ship grant for adl one-room schools is definitely prescribed being for implies that at amount must be order to quality townsip grant.
