special meeting of the Board took pliee on the inat Present Scott Pretty and wore amounting to 1015 of which earn were for wood Communication re Slate Blackboards placed on annual report of Davidson criticizes the working of the school and on the whole is satisfactory The following notes are of interest In comparing the writing in room in the school with the writing under the slating system one is compelled to say that the improvement ie very great In every room the pupils write more distinct ly neatly and beautifully I would recommend that all the teachers exercise a carefal oversight over the scribbling books as the writing most frequently done in neutralizes much of the effort on the regalar copy book It is possible for the scribbling book to determine the character of the writing rather than the regular copybook When is the case the scribbling books be- come an evil I would also recommend that a selection of the moat beautiful passages of poetry be made from each School Reader and that each pupil be required to commit passages to memory before he ia pro to a higher Reader In conclusion I have pleasure in stat ing that each teacher ready to receive sulfations in regard to the work and I have no doubt they will be duly carried into effect The Principals Report of attendance for March as follows Diva I III IV VI Total On Boll 63 324 53 54 205 nonresident for April were
