that in that longperiod the •officers ap-
pointed by the Ontario Government

elit
have been so wisely chosen that, with
one or two exceptions, there have
been no defalcations, and such as did
occur were of so trilling a character as
o be scarcely worthy of notices The
Oontire loss to the treasury from thedis-
honesty of its officers in 22 years was
less than $25,000. Iu the sante time
the defalcation. of municipal officers,
according to a return brought down

Empty declamation is about all there
is in the charges against the Mgwa't
Government, and there is considerable
force in the following, from the Toron-
to Telegram, (Independent Conserva-
tive):— .
"Tlie Opposition will have to pro-
duce facts to support• its claim that
Sir Oliver Mowat has not given On-
tario honest and reasonably economi-
cal government. Declamation will
not do the work that must be done
before Mowat goes. Attacks upon the
__.--:-admiYristrative-recotchnof the _Rover n -
ment are useless in the absence of spe-
cific cases of extravagance and dis-
honesty. Statements that the dishon-
esty is there, but that the Opposition
is not smart enough to discover eviden-
ces of it, do not strengthen the case
against Mowat. A smart Government
cannot do great wrong and escape ex-
posure at the hands. of a dull Opposi-
tion. Would an Opposition that is not
smart enough to expose the wrong-
doing of a Government be srnart
enough to escape doing wrong if it
were a Government?

was $43,383.82 ; 1892, $43,943.38 ; 1893,

The increase in expenditure has been
caused' mainly by improving the school

new school houses; it has certainly not been

. STATISTIC» OF ATTENDANCE FOR 1893.
•C 'O iso .ted
School Inspector's Reports.
The following is the report of School In -
specter Tom for West Huron, for 1893:—
The data upon which this report is
founded are mainly the .school returns from
the several school sections, compiledby the
trustees and the teachere, and from infor-
mation taken by the assessors, and for-
warded to my office by the township clerks.
f neatly d Lheangreater correctly filled, oth ugh f the reports
ten per cent of them are carelessly and in-
correctly done. Every' item in these re.
ports should be clearly and definitely an-
swered, and, where possible, should be an-
ewered in figures. The returns from assees-
ment rolls Bent in by the township clerks
were, from three of the municipalities,. in-
complete, and from some of the others
plainly incorrect. These errors are some-
times attended with serious financial lose,
when statistics embodied in the roll are
forwarded to the central Government. In
the returns from many school sections the
trustees neglect to give the names of their
• secretary -treasurer, and teachers for the
following year, as required by the statutes.
For this reason communisations are often
sent to the secretary of the previous year.
I respectfully call the attention of all
trustee boards and teachers to section 40
.(13) and section 206 of the Public Schools
Act of 1891. If all will comply with these
sections it will save mach delay and trou-
ble in completing my reports, and sending
out the orders for the half -yearly grants.
In this age of cheap printing, and when
tons of printed matter are being distributed
free by our Governments, I believe the
Education Department should be asked to
furnish four copies of the School Act and
regulations to each school section, one copy
should be kept in the school house, and a
copy held by each trustee.
TEACHERS' INSTITUTES.
During the year two very snecessfril in-
stitute meetings, inwere held, the first at
Exeter and the second at Goderich; 114
public school teachers attended ono or the
ether or both of these meetings. Trustees
would assist their schools very much by
attending these meetings. By taking an
aotive part in the discussions they weld('
benefit their schools and encourage pupils
and teachers in their work.
INSPECTION.
I visited every school twice and several
of them' three times during the year. Of
the 126 teachers employed, 116 were doing
faithful work.. Many of them are excellent
teachers. Six ?were lacking in literary
training or aptitude to teach, and should.
go into some other work, or improve their
qualifications. Four did not appear into.
rested in their work, beyond collecting
their salaries, and did not strive to advance
or educate their pupils as they should do.
Only three of the ten who werenot doing
satisfactory work are remaining in the in-
spectorate, and one of them is in another
school, where I hope better work will be
done. Lack of method, want of discipline,
no enthusiasm, and not being thorough in
the work, are the main causes of failure.
I believe there is as large a percentage of
good teachers in West Huron as in any in-
spectorate in the Province.
I have always found the majority of
trustees and teachers willing and'.anxious
to carry out any suggestions for the ad-
vanbement of pupils, or the improvement
of the school house, seating, etc.
Nearly $60,000 is spent each year on the
public schools of West Enron, and I have
tried to do all I can to make the benefits to
the pupils as great as possible. If, in some
oases, it has been felt that 1have been very
exacting in examining the pupils' work and
progress made, it is because I recognize my
responsibility to the parents and children.

The average attendance for the rural and
village schools for 1891 was. 55 'per cent.;
1892, 54 per cent; 1893, 54 per cent. For
the town of Goderich for 1892, 66 per cent;
1893, 66 per cent, Of the rural schools No.
2, Colborne, and No. 7, Hay, deserve ape •
pial mention for average attendance. In
the former 11 pupils attended over 200 days,
and in the latter, 29 pupils. Regularity
and progress depend largely on the parents'
interest in their children, but even more
on a' diligent, energetic, thorough teacher.

CHANGES IN SCHOOL SECTIONS.
In Ashfield, S.S. No. 2 ws.s changed to a
R. C. separate school at the beginning of
1893. Another separate school section was
formed out of parts of S.S. No. 1, Hay and
Stanley and No. 11, Hay. This reduced S.
S. No. 11, Hay, to 1450 acres.
. Arbitrators appointed by the townships
of Hay, Stephen and Bosanquet met at
Grand Bend, Aug. 23rd, 1893, and formed
a school nation, to be known as No. 15,
Hay and Stephen. This section was form-
ed out of parts of Nos. 8, 11 and 12, Steph-
en, and part of No. 5, Iday.
Arbitrators appointed by the county
council of Huron at the June session, 1893,
met at Zurich, September 16th, 1893, and
united the remaining portion of No. 5, Hay,
to No. 11, Hay, thus increasing No. 11,
Hay, from 1450 acres to about 3450 acres.
I believe the re -arrangement of the sec-
tions in the western parts .of Hay and,
Stephen will place a school house within a
reasonable distance of each family in these
sections, and also makes each section' of
fair size. These changes have not increased
the number of school sections. There are
now 9.2 rural school corporations in this
inspectorate, at the end of 1892 there were
ell rural sections.

QUESTIONS.
It may be well to state, Scott's Emulsion
acts as a food as well as a medicine, build-
ing up the wasted tissues and restoring per-
fect health after wasting fever.
There are at present 95 school houses in I
Ibis division, of which 36 are brick, 3 stone,
35 frame and 1 log, all these are free hold,
except No. 13, East Wawanosh. The esti-
mated value of these houses and grounds is
$95,300, and of the equipment and furni.
tore, $12,570.
New school houses (veneered with brick)
were erected during the year 1893 in S. S.
No. 3, Ashfield, and in S.S. No. 1, Hay and
Stanley. The one built in No. 1, Hay and
Stanley cost about 31000. This sum in•
eludes the cost of seating. I consider this
school one of the best school houses in this
inspectorate. It is finished inside in ash,
with arched ceiling, and is seated with
finely finished desks, having automatic di•
,. aided seats.•,
No. 1, Stephen, No. 4, Usborne, and No.
13, Aslitield, have the same kind of desks.
These de°ke cost a little more than other
desks, btit are far more comfortable and
convenient, and are firmer, L» they have an
extra foot fastened to the Noor in the cen•
ere. Trustees requiring new desks should
see these before purchasing. New single
desks bave been put in the 5th and 4th ,
class rooms of the Exeter sohool. I do not I
