A JOKE ON THE TRUSTEES An amusing deception was pr:- - ticed on those in attend-ince at t;.: Urban Trustees' Convention in 1 - ronto. At the door of the hall whc q the convention was held, were pi':; of pamphlets and other literat.r-:! < f a more or less dry and dusty chi-- acter. But there was also a si a pile of modest books with bluo cov bearing the title "What I know ->- bout women" While the educatio â- .! literature was practically untouc' j, the small pile of blue pamphlet-? I ad to be renewed three times. The .al- eg-ites grrabbed thenr eagerly «iid peered expectantly inside. U ml;' pages met their eyes. At first <l' ap- pointmnt met them, until they had the satisfaction of watching their fel- low educationalists falling prey 1 1 the joke sponsord by the Toronto trustees. The books were for the purpose of note making. Mr. Herbert Corbett of Prot a Stat- ion attended the Ontario Educational Association convention in Toronto last week. Mr. Corbett was appointed last year as Vice-Pres. of the rural section of the school trustees i»nd this year the convention honored him with the office of President of that dep.irt- ment. Mr. Corbett informs us that one of the most interesting: resolut- ions under discussion was the Town- ship School BiU. The convention decided to send a request to Premier Ferguson that decision be deferred un- til after the O. E. A. convention next April. In the meantime the commit- tee will endeavour to have the qtiest- ion debated in each school section and also at the convention next year. A pleasant event in connection with the convention was a dinner given by the Robert Simpson Co. to the ofieials of the O. E. A.

KEEP MARKERS CLEAN The Highway Traffic officers will be on the look-out for motorists who neglect to keep their markers clean. The act states that markers must be kept clean so that the numbers can be clearly discernable. This year there is very little difference, in the color of the markers, being but a shade deeper yellow than last year, and making it very dificult to dis- cern between the two issues. OSPREY U. F.
