Friday evening Nov 18 was the night when the Vespra Area School Trustees attended the Fcrndalc Home and School Association meet ing Through this column and by other means the residents of the district had been informed for sev eral wccks of the time date and place of the meeting and what happened Exactly twenty per sons put in on appearance to meet the Trustees who turned out in full force along with theirisecrc taPy Mr Smith In the absence of the President and NicePresidenth the Associa tion the chair was taken by Mrs Dowson secretary The minutes of thb previous meeting having been read the following motions were passed That nancial assist ancc for the purchasihg ot equip ment be lven the newlyformed Ferndale ys Club That books and picture in accordance with the requirements of the teacher Mrs Lougbecd be purchased That coat hooks should be placed for the childr clothes in such position that coats etc would b6 dry and warm when the children left school That funds shoul be made available for Christmas party for the children These motions were passed after the treasurer Mrs Coulson htid presented the nancial statement and after the Ladies Sewing Club had informed the meetingwof the very successful results of the haze car held two weeks ago The trus tccs had paid 75 towards piano and the ladies had defrayed the balance of $75 from bazaar re ceipts substantial sum was still left The business portion of the meeting was followed by sing song until such time that allth trustees arrived At the outset it appeared that the Trustees were under the im pression that the main topic was COME fa CASH LOANS 5000300500 OI Ml Loans made on your own signature No cndorsers or bankable security needed HFC specializes in courteous prompt service See tablerepayment plans are

scholars who attend Pine Grove School delivered right to the school door and during the winter months to allow the child ren who have to wait for the bus near Ferndale School to shelter in the school porch until the bus ap pears These Area Trustees under chair man Harris appear to be very fine wellmeaning group of gen tlemen and have no easy task in dening the future of education in Vespra School Area in years to come and the thought arose Who would want to be School Trustee in Vespr Nevertheless the main question that required to be answered was What do you intend to do about the future of the schools in Ves pra when they all become over loaded as Ferndale is now It was pointed out that at meeting two years ago the trustees had promisedto take action to see what they could do about the improve ment of Femdale School if the par ents would agree to the children being transported to Pine Grove School as temporary measure This statement was immediately denied by the secretary who claim ed that no promise was nude For two hours discussion took place between trustees puents and others present with reference to future enlarged Ferndale School Luscious my Sputum bismuth mm no morons PM

Ferndnle people thought about talc ing back under the management of their own local group of trust ees the responsibility of the nehooi It was pointed out by Mr Coul son that such small number was not representative of the Ferndnle taxpayers and that this muttcri should be referred to the nexttax payers meeting It was cvrdent that such action was favored by Disclosure was made of the fact that the disbanded Fern dale Trustees handed over to the Area Trustees $1600 and from that amount plus grants plus taxes collected for educational purposes since that time 3200 had been spent on improving the school yard elec tric lighting had been installed the school had been recently painted and of course the teachers well corned salary had been paid These Ms should be well digested by the taxpayers The consensus of opinion was local board of trustees coul ot do any worse statement by one trustee that it was only mural that he siwuld be mom interested in the school his own chip attended did not uchneumncither did that of another trmtee who appeared to be under the impression that For dale would become part of Bar rie It was eluted out that this could not to place without the sanction of the taxpayers and in any case it was in the distant fut ore At this point theTrustces threw the monkey wrench into the works The secretary infomed the meeting that the trustees did not hold deed for the Ferndale School property that they had been unsuccesful in trying to ob tain one and that the owner of the land had given the land 0n condition that it was used for school purposes only and that it should revort to the owner if used for any other purpose Immedi ately it was evident that no one in sane mind would enlarge school upon land for which no deed was held The bombshell exploded nndtbe general opinion was that nothing further could be done un til contact was made with the own er of the land with view to ob raining deed After this re port would be made to the execu tive of the association Hence the future educational im provements for Ferndale children are still in abeyance but in tne rdsofwthe poet sh not the struggle nought avail eth The labor and the wounds are Vain The
