Let me explain in the first place that we do not for one mo- pay these fees. The fault lies en- tirely with the Ontario County Council. We are forced by act of parliament to send our boys and girls to school till they are sixteen years of age. Then why penalize us for complying with the law? The Ontario County Council does not supply us with the necessary equipment .in the way of a school to educate our children and as they are receiving extra taxes from hundreds of families brought into their district by the industries of Oshawa, it is their duty to either provide an accessible school or at least pay the fees when they are able to have their pupils educated through the City of Oshawa and so save themselves the expense of building schools. Do they realize how hard it is on parents sending their children from Columbus and districts seven or eight miles from Oshawa who not only have to pay tramsportation but a share of the school fees as well?

TEND FIRST VENTURE AT ARMORIES A Special School Children's Matinee Attracted Many on Saturday Afternoon More than 4,600 people attended the first annual Ontario R.gimen- tal Carnival held the last three days of the week at the Armories, Although not a success financially, the affair proved to be an out- standing event from the point ot view of attendance and general en- thusiasm. The concessions which were run during the three evenings provided entertainment which ri- vals a country fair, and altogether it might be termed an event of im- portance in the city's winter sea~- son, The decision by the committee to make the Carnival an annual af- fair was reccived with rapture when it was announced last Satur- day evening from the platform. Saturday afternoon a specia school children's matinee was put on, and the kiddies of the city given an opportunity to see and hear three fine stage attractions as well as spend their "nickel" at the candy counter or refreshment booth, Spccial performances of Jumbo, the monkey, and Billy Boy the "talking horse" were given, the children loudly applauding each presentation: It has been stated from several quarters that the Carnival was per- fect from the point of cleanliness and. wholesomeness. The smallest child might witness the whole even- ing's performance and be delighted, be an attraction for the youngsters, who came to the Carnival in large numbers, both at the matinee and the evening performances, The whole affair was an experi- ment, stated the committee, but it was. found' such a success from the attendance figures that it will be repeated next year, with the hope that the financial end of it will take care of itself, Fam, Ply. ,.67 66% 67 Gen.

Kipp, who preached here a week ago, is the editor. The Rev, Mr, Kipp visted Mr, Smith at the home of his daughter, Mrs, Angus Bar- ton, Connaught street, with whom he is making his home, and then wrote the following article: "Rev, Ira Smith, for years a preacher of great power in a num- ber of our churches, {is now in rather poor health and residing at Oshawa.

Hurw etaol sdlu gqp zfifluffjpjyini PRINCE OF WALES MAY BE APPOINTED REGENT FOR KING (Continued from Page 1) king during his illness, with a re- gency. The action, if taken, would { have for its background the constitu- tional duties which devolve upon the crown in the coupse of a general clection, which this year is slated for some time in May. Must Confer The king--or the regent--must dis solve parliament, and in the event of victory by the opposition party, in this case either the Liberal or the Labor party, would have to confer with the new leaders regarding ap- pointments, future policy, and the ike. In the event of a deadlock between Conservatives and Labor after the general election the king, or regent, would have to decide to which party to give power, To Relieve King These duties are considered suffi- ciently arduous as to make it unlike ly King George will be able to leave Bognor soon enough to undertake them, The council of state appoints ed to act for him during his iliness is expressly forbidden to dissolve parliament in the act creating it, and hence the appointment of a regent appears as the only solution of the difficulty. While there has been some dis- cussion as to whether parliamentary sanction is necessary for the appoint- ment of a regent it has been custom- ary to obtain this. Only One Since 1800 Since 1800 there has been but one regent, the Prince of Wales, later George 1V, acting for his father, George 111, during the latter's insan- ity, 1810 to 1812, * The parliamentary act granting authority for the establishment of this regency set mo restriction of regent's authority over treaties, peace and war, or parliament, but limited his power of granite peerages, offices, and pensions.
