Mr. ;rack Riddell lale Legislature on March 10.10'5, he following excerpt, which was.published in the News,Record a few weeks age, written by August De -Groof is worth repeating again: • In the days when Sir William was ruler of the land called Overspendario, there lived a man whose name was Lord Darcy. He was the keeper of the treasury but like his predecessors, he squandered the riches of the land. Sir William did not interfere because many of'his friends became quite prosperous from the con- tractual tasks which they performed for their ruler. "Then it came to pass that all the treasures had disappeared and Lord Darcy said unto Sir William: 'What do we do? For now here is a shortage of many millions of gold pieces.' So Sir William borrowed from other lands at high rates of interest and levied taxes on his own people to repay the loan. "But it was not enough. The only people who had any money left were William's friends, and he did not want to tax them any more. S4 Sir William said unto Lord Darcy: 'No need to worry.' And William went to Francis the Great and said: 'You are the doctor: you fix it.' And Frank said: 'Let us close a few hospitals.' " 4 what aL The Clinton He?

The matter was first discussed when superin- tendent Jim Coulter asked that principals be permitted to submit accounts for ex- penses so incurred as overages to the individual school's budget. Dr. Harry Cummings of Ottawa, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Cummings, Mary Street, left- on Friday last week for Indonesia where he commences a new position with the government of that country.

He con- tinued. "I'm not against their participation but feel it's a matter of principle the budget committee should know how much is being spent.
