TALK ON SCHOOL TAX QUESTION AT WATERLOO "Would it be fair to ask Proteâ€" atants to eupport their own schools end aleo bear part of the burden of the Catholic school expenses", asked Mr Hanigan at the beginning of his address? The purpose of the quesâ€" tion he explained was "to put the shoe on the other foot." Regardless of whether those required to pay the tax were Catholics or Protestant the double tax was unfair. The Catholics are not aaking for any epecial priviâ€" lege but merely their just righta guaranteed ‘by the British North America Act. Ontario‘s Catholic minority are Oonly aeking that they be treated as fairly as the Protestant minority in Quebec where the taxes of corporations are divided in proâ€" portion to the enrolment of the pubâ€" lic and separate echools. FORMER WATERLOO YOUNG COUPLE HONORED BY FRIENDS Two hundred people attended a meeting held at the St. Louls‘ hail Sunday evening addressed by T. G.

Bauer as president and Leo Henhoeffer as secretary. Rev. W. B. Mayer acted as chairman of the meeting. EXECUTOR WINS CASE AGAINST PLAINTIFF IN COURT Mr. Justice Kelly at the Supreme court sitting at Kitchener, gave judg ment for possession of a house at 84 Mount Hope street to Arnold Krue ger, executor for the estate, of Se bringyville. The action was againet Emil Schippling and wife, Hedela H Schippling. Defendants contended that they had advanced money to the parente and were therefore en titled to posession of the house in future. ‘The judge ruled in favor of the executor in order to give the two parties interested an opportunity to eettle dispute out of court. Rev. Father B. Meyer of the St. Louis R.C. School, Waterloo favored fAfth form classes in the public schools. He said the Waterloo Seâ€" parate. school would have 46 enâ€" trance pupils and it would cost $2,â€" 300 to give them fifth form class inâ€" struction. In â€" conclusion Father Mayer said he would like to coâ€"operâ€" ate and ‘believed the scheme a good one, but with present day conditions he did not feel th cboard could conseâ€" lentously increase achool taxes. School Trustee W. P. Krese of Waâ€" terloo Public schools was not in faâ€" vor of increased school tax at the present time. He however, was inâ€" terested in the proposal of Inspector Prueter to amend the old Berlinâ€"Waeâ€" terloo High School Act, which he beâ€" lieved would simplify matters. A. K. Creasman, Waterloo insurâ€" ance and real estate agent and moâ€" tary told of drawing uap wills in faâ€" vor of Mre. Schippling by the par ents. These wills, however, were re placed by others before becoming effective. Some members of the public echool boards in the Twin City favor fifth form clasees in the public schoole but objected to this extra cost if the municipalities are required to conâ€" tinue to pay towards the upkeep of the Collegiate on the basis of popu lation. Inspector Prueter said that the primary schools could give in struction to fifth form students at less cost than the Collegiate because lees highly trained teachers would be required. The meeting was called to conâ€" sider the question of fifth form classes at the various public schools in order to relleve the crowded conâ€" dition of the Kitchener and Waterâ€" loo Collegiate. If & solution cannot be found the Collegiate Board will be faced with the question of providâ€" ing more accommodation. The poâ€" pulations of the two municipalities are steadily growing and with the increased number of students from year to year the Collegiate cannot defer for long the enlerging of the present building. A feature of the joint mesting of the Kitchener and Waterloo school boards on Monday ovo-hs was the proposal of Inspector H. J. Pructer of the Kitchener schools that the old echool act be amended so that the municipality would pay for actuâ€" ;lpup?l‘nun‘aeoh-u“olbyp pulation. uestion Discussed At Joi Meeting of Boards, But No Definite Action Results.
