At the time of writing the staff is not complete for the new term, but everyâ€" thing will be in readiness for the new term next week. Under Principal D. A.

HEW TEAGHERG OR FUBLIG SGNOUE STAFFf will have as his assistants :â€"â€" Miss Thompson, of North Bay; Miss of New Liskeard; Miss Taylor, of Ottawa; and Miss Inglis, formerly of Moneta. The latter by her good work at the Moneta school made an enviable reputation for herself in the district as a competent and successful teacher, and the others on the staff are highly recommended by their past experiences and success in the work,. There is every prospect, therefore, of a successful year for the Timmins Public School. With the best Public School Prineipal in the North Land and with an efficient staff, Timmins Public School only needs the coâ€"operaâ€" tion and interest of parents and citiâ€" zens generally to be this year the most effective and helpful institution in the camp.

S. INSPZECTOR FOR DISTRICT Several interested in the matter have recently been advocating the apâ€" pointment of a second Public School Inspector for the District of Temiskaâ€" ming, or the division of the dlbtll(’t1 into two Inspectorates. Not only is the distance to be travelled by one Inâ€" spector to cover all the schools of Tem iskaming a matter to be considered, but the growth in the number of schools â€"and teachers is also worthy of attention. _ In the past year alone there has been an increase of 25 teaâ€" chers to the list of those at work in the: district, and the demand for new schools in the various settlements is growing every day. Inspector Bannis ter now has 158 teachers in his disâ€" trict, and the school are dotted over an immense territory, much of it diâ€" fficult of access. It will be generally admitted that the schools farthest from large centres are the ones usuâ€" ally requiring the closest supervision and assistance from the Inspector, and to travel to each one of these schools even once a year would take an unaâ€" menge amount of time and energy. At the same time, the larger schools may not be neglected by the Inspector and for a conscientious man the task of supervising all the schools of a terriâ€" tory like Temiskaming, where travel is seTdom easy or comfortable or rapid, must appear near to appalling. The appointment of a second inspector or the division of the hig district into two Inspectorates nuu'lt well engage the attention of the new Minister of Education. ‘The education of the risâ€" ing generation is truly the most imâ€" portant matter for a new land like this and the more adequate the superâ€" vision of education here the better.

It was intended to hold this public meeting last Sunday evening, but several of the speakers were unable to be present and this, together with the bad weather, made it expedient to postpone the event until this coming Sunday, Sept.
