The pro- ceedings occupied' only a few min- utes. v. It was the first Jr council which the king had held since the historic meeting at Buckingham Palace dur- ing the early days of his majesty's illness, when he appointed councillors of state to act for him. With the dissolution" of parliament, the campaign for the general eiec- tions now will enter on its most ac- tive stage. On May 20 the nomina- tions will close, and on May 30 Great Britain will go to the polls to elect a new parliament. _. Members of the privy council mo- tored to Bognor from London and assembled in the smoking lounge ov- erlooking the sea where King, George wearing morning dress, received them, The veteran Earl of Balfour, who had not appeared in. public for a long time and has been under medi- cal. care, attended the session. = He looked' rather tired and worn, The Earl is one of the King's oldest friends. It had been many month's since. they. met and as he was an early arrival he spent several min- ates talking to his majesty before the session began. off xy or a speech from the throne. clamation of dissolution, Sir Maur- ice Hanking started to London to hand the proclamation fo thé.

These waters used to all reach the Bond street and King street areas with bad re- sults. The Richmond street sewes, however, is not sufficient by itself to properly relieve the down town area, and it is important that tue other works recommended be car- ried out, _ The old storm sewers on King street west and also on Simcoe street south, have become inade- quate to carry the ever-increasing burden imposed upon them. The corner of King street and Ontario street is the main gravity point of the business area and it is neces- sary that the new intercepting sew- ers be built with the view to the FULL ON EVERY relief of this point and at the same time afford relief to as large a part of the business area as possible, with the added provision for exten. sions as such may be required from 'time to time. In the previous report referred to above, it was suggested that a 'arge storm sewer should be con- tructed from the Creek easterly nn Athol street or on Metcalf and rure streets with connections to i Bl + 'he strategic points on King street, nd the more southerly course was 'ommended in spite of its greater ats, on account of the fact that it ld afford more lasting benefits a larger area. Recommend New Sewer I now recommend that steps be "en immediately to authorize the struction of a storm sewer not 3 than 36 inches in diametes, m the Oshawa Creek at John et; thence easterly on John ot a distance of ahout 200 feet; north-easterly behind tne 're Street School to the west of Metcalf street; thence east Metcalf street to Simcoe street; nce north on Simcoe street to _nne street; thence continuing at liameter of not less than 30 inch- east on Bruce street to Celina got; thence north on Celina 'reet to King street. The above described sewer woula ~pnstitute the main sewer, and its ampletion would cost approxi 'ately $37.060. The following Interception sew- ars should be constructed immedi- ately on the completion of the main sewer: -- roe | be (a) A sewer not less than 24 inches in diameter on Simcoe street from Bruce street to Bagot street. This sewer would ultimately be ex- tended north on Simcoe street to Athol street and King street. , | (b) A sewer mot 'less than 21 incheg in diameter on Bruce street from Celina street to Albert street, This sewer would ultimately be ex- tended east on Bruce; street ana would work in gonjunction with the 21 inch sewer now running south 'on Albert street from Bruce ztreet. wl (c¢) A" sewer mot less than 24 inches in diameter on King street from Celina street to Albert street. This sewer would ultimately. be ex- tended further east on King street as occasion might demand. From the above described main down town storm sewer, it is evi- '| dent that practically all the exist ing storm sewers in the area may intercepted or replaced as changing conditions might war- rant. 1t is evident from the conditions obtaining in our sanitary sewers during a rain storm, that there are improper connections in 'existence which admit storm water into the sanitary sewer. Such connections must have been made quite a num- ber of years ago, but they should be located and cut off. W. C. Smith, City Engineer. DR. G. E. REAMAN EXPLAINS INQUIRY (Continued From Page 1) in connection with the case, point- ing out that it was wifh a 16 year old hoy the case had to do. 'Ing lad has been in the school nine months and had been more or less of a "problem boy;" one who gave more or less difficulty in the handl- ing. However, he had been trust- ed and made an 'honor boy." Punished in Usual Way Several weeks ago, Dr. Reaman related, a new boy came to ine school. He had been placed on suspended sentence in the Toronto police court, These two are said to have made up together and taken French leave for Montreal, where they stayed several days. The bovg were brought back from Montreal together. The new boy was ta'ten to Toronto and the sent- ence formerly suspended, carried out. The former was disciplined in the usual way, that i8. was whip- ped in front of about 30 members of the school. He was punished only after the father's ronsent had 'een obtained, stated Dr. Reaman, and the school physician was there at the time. "The reascn he was punished in front of his playmates was beca:«- he had publicly dis~raced the nam~ | of the school by running away an! therefore he was publicly disgraced before his playmates for so doing," declared the superintendent, "There has never been any illfeeling among the boys after a boy has been whip- ped." "Iefore a whipping may take » =o rnommittee of three mem- bers of the staff including myself," Ur. Reaman, "must sanction it." Story Untrue A story that the boys were *rought back in 'handcuffs, Dr. Reaman declared not to be true. le said that they were hrought from Montreal in a car and before they entered the school, handcuffs were put on them for a few min- utes as an object lesson to the other boys of thé school. This was to show the rest of the boys, the superintendent gaid, where it would lead them if they ran away frou justice in later life, Of the large number of boys who graduated from the school, 105 in all, 101 of these have made good, ~ccording to Dr. Reaman. One ol the other boys has recently been in communication with the school and is staying on the right track. The day after these boys were brought back, a former pupil, then living in Toronto, took his bicycle and ville in order to get back to the 'school which he liked and had learned to appreciate, Dr. Reaman sald. This had been the third boy to come back on his own initiative in the last three months, it was added. Another lad had started out to walk to the school from Tor- onto and had received lifts from motorists, The instructors at the school showed The Times reporter sev- eral letters from the parents of former pupils in which they con- gratulated the school on the way in which it helped their children. The Times was also told that the school had nothing to hide and was open for investigation at all times. A Friend to Women Ik Lydia E.
