Alger, superintendent of the Children's Aid Society of the County, addressed the Council regarding the otiicial opening of the new shelter in the City of Oshawa next Friday after- noon, and extended an invitation to the Warden and Council to attend. Mr. Alger mentioned, that a scheme was now under consideration by a joint committee representing the County and the City of Oshawa, where the County will take over the main- tenance of the Shelter under the sup- ervision of a committee representing the City, County and Shelter. An agreement outlining the scheme, Mr, Alger said, would be presented at this session for consideration. He told the Council that during the month of May there were 31 children in the Shelter, and during the past season the largest number for some time past had been cared for by the Society. In the Shelter there were 10 children classed as unplaceable, and these Mr. Alger said should be taken care of in some other institution by the government. The Society had been successful in placing other children in good foster homes;and from these encouraging re- ports were forthcoming from time to time. At the present time there were some very good children in the Shelter awaiting being placed in good homes. For this session Mr. W. J. H. Rich- ardson is acting clerk, owing to the fact that Mr. Christian has net suf- ficiently recovered from his illness. ree Orsini SEAGRAVE SUNDAY SCHOOL ANNIVERSARY Sunday, June 15, the Rev.
