The Department pf Education sought to have this school closed and such a move was Recommended by , ‘George C. Dobson, public school in­ spector for West. Bruce. A* letter was earlier received from the Department instructing the School Board to close at the earliest possible date, but ad­ ded that these’ instructions would be officially confirmed; in a letter from the Inspector, which has as yet not been received. ‘ - At a ratepayers meeting called to discuss the problem, the section strongly supported keeping the school, open and at this meeting, attended by Inspector Dobson, the teacher was hired.'
