Recent announcements made by Dr. Fimpson, Minister of Education, sugâ€" gest that the cost of maintaining the academy at Monteith is altogether too great in proportion to the work that is felt to be accomplished. When Dr. Himpson was in Timmins last year he suggested that something would be done in regard to the Monteith Acaâ€" demy as its usefulness was not proporâ€" tionate to its cost in his belief. He said, however, that the matter wo‘?ld be given the fullest study and considerâ€" ation before any change would be made. More recent announcements suggest| that a change is imminent.

The collection of the fees for dog licenses is a more or less difficult job each year, and some days recently the_returns seeined, hardly worth the effort necessary Other days Friday and Saturday last, for example, were good days and a neat amount was colâ€" lected on these days. The work is being carried on by Constable Olson, and it would appear to be the part of wisdom on the part of dogâ€"owners to see that they pay the taxes on all their dogs. Now there is only the dog taxes to pay, but it these taxes are not paid now there will be costs and inconvenience added. The dogs without tags will be liable to be impounded and the owners of unlicensed dogs will be liable to be called to court and have costs added to the license fees and the fines imâ€" posed. Eventually it will be necessary to pay the dog taxes. Why not do it at once and save the chance of losing the dog as well as the inconvenience and costs of a court appearance.

For many years past there has been a troop of the Boy Scouts in Timmins, but the general feeling among those interested in boys‘ work is that this town is large enough for several troops of Boy Scouts and that in any case the number of active Boy Scouts here should be very largely increased. With this idea in mind a meeting of all interested in the Boy Scout movement or in boys and their progress and happiness is called for Friday evening, Feb. 15th, in the town hall.
