Close to the Waterloo Park, be tween the boat house and the beadâ€" tiful grounds of Mr. Herbert Snider, hidden by trees at the ond of Cedar Street, the fimest building site of ai ther Kitchener or Waterioo is balievâ€" ed to be located. This property goes to the waters edge standing high and overlooking splendid scenery, quietly removed from the noise of the strest traffic, yet very near the Wateripo Post Office, it bas a charm sil its own but simply awaits the touch of residential development which . will give to it magnificient beauty. This property was sold a few days ago to Dr. J. E. Hett.

F. Carmichael, who has been actâ€" ing temporarily as School Attendâ€" ance Officer for the Public Schools of the city, was submitted . to the School Board last evening, bringing to light a number of points in the School Allendance Aci which have Speaking of the partâ€"time classes, Mr. Carmichael showed that under the present requirements of the Act, which call for four hundred hours of attendance by partâ€"time pupils beâ€" tween the ages of fourteen and sixâ€" teen, these classes must be conductâ€" ed during the day. This makes it impossible to use the present buildâ€" ings for these classes as they are a} Hold Evening Classes On the other band, it was pointed out that were an amenâ€"ment securâ€" ed which would make it permissible to hold these classes in the evening, it would mean that a student would have to attend two hundred twoâ€" hour classes, or in other words, would have to go to school five nights a week for practically the full school term. & Opinion was ezpressed by some of the trustees that this would be rathâ€" er a hardship on young persons who were working during the day and would then have to spend every evâ€" ening at school, the suggestion beâ€" ing made that half this time would be more reasonable. ~ Commenting on the portions of the Act now in force, Mr. Carmichael stated that he had found fewer puâ€" pils dropping out of the entrance classes this year than formerly. in other years it had been found that children often were merely putting in the time until they were fourteen and then dropped out immediately. The change in the regulations has altered this and has tended to make many work hard in an effort to pass the exraminations upon which they would never have written were the act not in force. Principal‘s Report. The report submitted by Mr. Carâ€" michael is as follows: "I herewith submit the report of the School Attendance Officer ror the months of May and June. I have issued five home permits, four workâ€" ing permits and rei&#ued six workâ€" ing permits owing to change of emâ€" ployment. I made three home calls, notified five for nonâ€"attendance and took one out of factory. " I should like to see this Departâ€" ment put on a working basis but in order to do so the coâ€"operation of the Employer must be secured. "Two â€" very important â€" requireâ€" ments seem to have been overlookâ€" ed: first, the certificate .ol employâ€" ment must be returned to the Atâ€" tendance Officer within two days afâ€" ter employment ceases; secondly, as soon as the adolescent becomes sixâ€" teen years of age the employment certificate must be exchanged at the office of the School Attendance Ofâ€" ficer for a school dismissal card or a school registration â€" card. Otharâ€" wise further employment is illegal. "Since September 1921, 166 workâ€" ing permits have been issued and of that number 16 have been returned. Twentyâ€"eight Home Permits were is sued and of this number two were changed to working permits. "The â€" partâ€"time â€" courses . which come into effect September 1st, efâ€" fect young persons from 14 to 16 years who are at work, either at home or at gainful employment. The situation is one that is aimost linâ€" possible to meet under the terms of the Act and existing conditions. "I would suggest that this Board, in conjunction with other bodies, memoralize the Department for such changes as will enable municipalities to utilize their present buildings by }haflu the time of attendance changâ€" ed to other than between 8 a.m. and 5 pm."

TO PROVIDE _ RICH SCHOOL FOR ELMRA Discussion of the report brought in by the Equalization Committee occupied the attention of Wednes day‘s session of the County Council which convened at 10.30 o‘clock, standard time. The report brought in by J. M. Scully on equalization was â€" carefully considered. . Small changes in the report were discussâ€" ed. The report, based on the values of property during the past three years was held to place too high a value on town properties, owing to the abnormal conditions that then prevailed. The values have since then fallen and a reduction in the case of the munlclpa(luu was urged. A further session of the council will be held this afternoon. ‘The afternoon sesston yesterday convening at 3.30 o‘clock standard time was very short in order to give time to some committees tb'gnlsh up their work. A large gele‘-llon from Wellesley Villago with E. Reinâ€" er as spokesman waited upon the council. They drew the attention of the council to the isolated position of Wellesley with regard to comâ€" munication and transportation faciliâ€" tles and urged that they be given the earllest consideration of _ the council when the new County Roads @ystem came into force. The buildâ€" ing of a permanent highway from Wellesiey to Baden was urged. The deputation was promised consideraâ€" tion. Migh School in Eimira By the provision of a bylaw given its first and second readings Tues day a new high school will be esâ€" tablished in the village of Elmira. The continuation school thereé at present has already more pupils than can be accommodated and a further increase in attendance due to the enforcing of the Adolescent School Act is anticipated making the establishment of a high scaool necesâ€" sary. The school will serve not only Eimira with its population of over 3,000 but also a considerable portion of the surrounding districts. ‘ A second bylaw given its first and second readings permiits the county road superintendent to overdraw the account at his disposal in the bank to an amount not exceeding $15,000.

A. Schoeder of Elmfra, was dismissed by Magistrate J. J. A. Wair of Police Court on _ Saturday his view of the case being that there was insuficient evidence to subâ€" stantiate a conviction. In giving his decision, Magistrate Weir went over the evidence in deâ€" tail, pointing out that while there was no question of Klein having reâ€" celved the goods, there was a quesâ€" tion so far as to his manner of reâ€" ceiving them. ‘"The onus is on the Crown to make out a case," he said. "The counsel for the Crown and the counsel for the defence agree that the prisoner is entitled to ‘the beneâ€" fit of the doubt. Addressing Klein, he continued : "On the evidence I find you not guil ty of this offence. I cannot say you are innocent entirely. It was very unwise of you to do this thing which was on the border line between inâ€" nocence and gullt. You know whethâ€" er you are gullty or not but @n the evidence I must give you the beneâ€" fit of the doubt."
