inclined to take a hopeful view of the situation I am confident our schools have greatly improved during the past few years and will compare favorably with those of any other county We have better trained teachers per cent holding first or second cJaj certificates our are better supplied with the neces sary equipment and libraries and the buildings and accommodations are greatly of which is due to enlightened interest and lib erality of School Boards generally aided by wise direction and liberal encouragement of the Department of Education Public School Inspector and Equalized Value of York County Municipalities CI a a a v v g a lis a s DgM Hi si King in the first year in which the Present system for computing the grant was used year has witnessed large additions to tho grants by these schools In the appropriation was but amounts earn- in that year total of and thus required aw addi tional from the Treasury Board For the appropriation increased to and the regulations amended in the case of Townships with an average section assessment of or over so that the per cent paid by the Department on salaries would begin for Principal and for assistant teachers instead of and- 200as had prior to 1012 been allowed But in spite of this increased appropriation and the change in the regulations the amounts earned by the rural schools exceeded the appropriation by nearly and other overdraft was necessary in order that these grants might be paid in full In view of the above the Government has decided that all Legislative grants in future shall not exceed the amounts voted by the Legislative Assembly for tlic respective services and that when necessary a pro rata reduction shall be made in the grants to the schools so that the total grants may be covered by the sum Voted in each case Hereafter then the per cent will be used merely as a basis of computation and such a pro rata reduction will be as may be necessary to keep the grants within tho appropriation The Legislative grant to urban schools is divided into two parts Regular and Special The former is apportioned upon the basis of popu lation- the latter upon the of certificate and the experience of the teacher As has pointed out in my former reports tho Legislative grants to urban schools have been relatively too small In North York this grant in 1912 amounted to about per teacher or about 75 cents
