There were two reasons 'for this. It was found that, after long advertising, n-ot a single application for the position of "teacher of this *department was received. Several other schools have found themselves in a similar position. There are not enough qualied teachers for this work to satisfy the demand. Then the classes in this `Department have always been very small and last year saw a very low level both in attendance and scholarship. For the present, until the supply of.Com- mercial teachers becomes adequate to meet the demand, the B.vC.I. Prin- cipal strongly advises students who wish to take a commercial course to attend the Collegiate for as many terms as possible. They should se- . cure at least middle school st-and- ing, he advises, so as to acquire a good general education. which is so necessary for the graduate in this work, who wishes to win advance- ment after securing a position; and then to take the strictly commercial course, in the Collegiate, if a teacher can then be secured, or in a Business College. Residents of Barrie, who wish to secure students as boarders for the coming year, should send a card to the Principal giving their name and address and stat- ing the number of boarders they can accommodate. May East Warders Romp to Central?

On June 14, 1920, the manage- ment committee recommended that all fourth class pupils of the East Ward school be instructed to attend `the Central school beginning Sept. 1, that year. Before commence, ment exercises this year senior third pupils of East Ward petitioned the Board of Education for permission to attend the Central or Victoria school.

Ivvcunn \4v'u4A: Some Councillors were incl-ined to rely on reports that there is plenty of, U.S. soft coal to be had. But Town Clerk Smith, upon being ask- ed, reminded them of the Control- ler's advice that No coal could come In from the U.S. excepting on a. sign- ed order from the Controller, and then only fuel that is necessary for immeduiate consumption. None can be obtained at present for storage purposes or household use, but only for use in hospitals and other similar institutions, and for manufacturers who have perlshalble goods on hand. Advices, identical `with these, were published in 'Doronto wipers. 1.. ....1;, -2 4|... n-...L._-n_._1._ , 1 Ullal A Mr. Scott said he had been offered soft coal at the mines at from $6.75: to $7 a ton.

Mr. Scott said the position of the dealers at present is that if tihey or- dered coal now and conditions so impnoved that within a short space` of time there was a drop of, say $2 21 ton, they would suffer a. pinch. In spite of this his rm has ordered some soft coal, as also have others, they say. Tn this: cnrrrrnuiin-n lfnrrnw 'H61ni UUL lllllllll. 2Ll|)'l.HJ`t; J.`lIIlll;; U 11..

In an effort to learn whether the local dealers would agree to act collectively in the purchase of soft coal to tide the town over, Hayor, Little called a second meeting fori last Friday night. J. G.

Ab- sence of other dealers was regarded by the Mayor a-s, mot so much a mat- ter of indifference as one of optim- ism on tihelr part regarding the coal. situation.

The Fuel Controller would protect the Town's, position in this, he ;1ssur.2:l them. The .\Ia,vor's attitude was that, it a dealer, or dealers clubbed, took a. risk under the circumstances, *hey should be protected, and he would take steps to afford them protection if they acted now.

The first services of the Clhunch of Eng- `land in Ivy were held in 1851, at first in private houses, in charge of the Rev. Garrett Nugent. In 1855 the Rev. Ednvlard Morgan was ap- pointed missionary at Barrie and took over the work at Ivy. Seven years later, 1862, the church edice was opened. In 1868 the Rev.

Craighurst is expected to ship at least 90,000 bushels of potatoes this year. Under a new system just en- tered into by many producers of the four townships surrounding that village-~Medonte, Oro, Flos and Vespr-a-a pnice higher than the average is anticipated. This is based on a grading system to be conducted by the Simcoe County Potato Grow- ers Association, formed this week \by Allan Hutchinson, Barrie repre- sentative of the Ontario Agricultural Department. Mr. Hutchinson sign- ed up 20 members in one day; at least 100 potato growers will join, it is expected. A lesson in the value of grading potatoes was taught Sim- ' coe county growers by New Bruns- wick men who have been getting 20 cents a bag more for their spuds in Toronto than others because they were graded. Tulbers from Craig- hurst are superior to New Bruns- vwick s. A similar orgwanization was recently formed in Kent county. These are the only two in Ontario so far.. Craighurst shipped 130 cars of potatoes last year, and ex- pects 150 cars this year. Toronto is the chief market, dealers buying at the shirppdng point. The grading sys- tem will induce farmers to buy a better class of seed spuds, it is be- lieved, and the consumer will bene- fit through 'a superior quality of tu-ber.

The original estimate of the cost of the roadway, about two and a. quarter miles, Was $218,000. By the Government taking over the fur- ther strip from Nelson Sq. to Rodney street, via Blake, it would lessen the -`distance about 300 yards and the `cost about $32,000 for the town to pay. If Kenipeiifeldt street is chosen the distance may be some less, but, it is argued by some, the necessarily heavier foundation will absorb greater funds and there will be less frontage to derive revenue ` from. mun fIn\'av`r\n1nhf' I1nflnr9z\'I:inD` `H.
