The matter of 625 spread over a section like ours is ri, mere bagatelle, especially when the majority of us were agreeable to boar our share of the tame oheerfully, In my opinion the trustees rather m- ended their duty in refusing to be guided by the petition. Mr. Young has done ex- cellent Work in the sohool, has been a first -clam resident and it is a serious loss to Ethel to lose him ancl hie family. Of the new teacher I have nothing to aay, as ho may bo all that ',could be desired, but I am always in favor of holding on to a good man when wo have him.
