Robertson's Ltd. 65 BROCK STREET LAVATORIES FOR THREE CITY PARKS City Council Will Be Asked to Provide for Expenditure of $4,000 to Do the Work. That lavatories be erected in City, Victoria and Frontenac parks, at a cost not to exceed $4,000, and that the civic finance committee be ask- j| ed to provide the funds. This was the decision of the civic parks committee, at a meeting held on Friday afternoon. The recoms mendation will be made to the city council at is next meeting, and if it is passed, and there is every reason to believe that council will sanction the expenditure, tenders will be called for and the work undertaken as soon as possible. For some time the matter of erecting lavatories in the city parks has been under considera- tion and now that the civic play- grounds have been established in Victoria and Frontenac parks the need for this accommodation has been more urgent. On the motion of Ald. Laturney, it was decided to put the matter up to the council. On motion of Ald. Dunphy, it was decided to ask for applications. for the positions of two male and two femals supervisors for the K play- grounds and also two female as- sistants. Applications will be receiv- ed up till May 16th. Miss Simmons, who served as a supervisor last summer, tendered her resignation, and it was received by the members of the committee with sincere regret, as Miss Simmons did splendid work at the play- grounds, and the members of the committee are very sorry to see her leave the work. Just as soon as the applications have beech received, the appointments will be made and all the necessary arrangements made for the opening of the playgrounds, which were operated by the parks committee with such great success last sume- mer, The committee decided on motion of Ald. Price, to call for tenders for an iron or-wooden flag pole for Mac- donald park. Specifications for the YOU BUY WHEN!

The Kitchener Record discussing the proposal of Premier Ferguson to reduce grants to Queens' and Western: Universities remarks: "There is room for all three univer- sities, each of which fills a niche peculiarly its own in the provincial system of education. Two of them should not be starved that the third may flourish more abundantly. Pre- mier Ferguson's policy of economy will fall in its mission if it in any way interferes with the work and thé usefulness of the other univer- sities. The smaller university wields an influence quite as great as the larger and in its solidarity it may even transcend thd usefulness of an institution that has become so Jarge as to lose in some measure the prin- ciple of unification." _ Too Much Law; Too Much Control. Prof. B. K. Sandwell, Queen's, made a forceful address at the St. George's banquet in Toronto on Thursday night. Among other things he said' that at the present time Can- ada had too much law and not en- ough common-sense. State control was not, and could never be a sub- stitute for individual effort. He though there was too much regulation of educational effort. It bad gone too far in public schools, and far enough in the realms of University activity. Government he said, could never be 4] tins substitute for the discharge of J dividual or parental duty.
