Letter to The AdvaNCi Dear Sir: I think the soccer teams of FI«sshertoii and Priceville should l>e prohibited from meeting again un- til they learn a lesson. That lesson is one of self control. A good game was marred here the other evening by frequent outbursts of fighting. A better feelir|? is needed between these two teams. Men of soccei fame! play the game as it should be played.

Question â€" What grants does a rural school board derive from a teacher taking up agriculture in the q:hool? What grant does the teach- er receive? What grant does the Inspector get? Answer. There is not sufficient space available in this column to give a full answer to this question. Cir- cular iNo. 56, entitled Special Depart- mental Grants to PubHc and Separ- ate Schools, pages 11 to 14, sets forth tho grants in Agriculture. These grants range from ?15.00 to fSO.OO for the teacher and from $10.00 tc $150.00 for the Board of trustees de- pending on the type of school, nature of the work done and the certificate rural board of tmstees and receiving - payment for his services. 4. Question â€" Our teacher seat in her resignationi to take effect at once, Stat ng no particular reason for U%v- ing except marriage. She claima that, if the board forced her to teach the following month or sued her fot a month's sick leave, which would be the required thirty days' notice. Sh« had not missed a day's teaching last year. Can a teacher legally claim a month's res'gnation to take effect at once, or at the end of thirty days? Answer. A teacher can only re- sign and give up her position in ac- , cordance with the terms of the writ- ten agreement with the board. If tht teacher submits a claim for salary due to illness it would be necessary foi her to produce a medical certiSicate. U the teacher is leaving because ol illness the board should demand at once that a medical certificate be given ness. According to a contemporary, the fellow who doesn't advertise may know his business â€" but nobody elst does. NOTICE TO CREDITORS of the teacher. Circular No. 56 may be had by anyone by application tc j,ti^rwise the teacher would have no the Deputy Minister, Department ot cC&im for salary on account of ill- Education. These grants are subject to change each year. 2. Question â€" Can a hardware merchant who is selling suppl'es to a school board qualify as a member ot the school board? Answer. Section 135 of the Pub- lic Schools Act prevents a trustee from receiving any compensation profit or promised or expected bene- fit from his board of trustees. It would be quite illegal for a merchant who is trustee to sell supplies to the Board of trustees. 3. Question â€" Where a school board consists of three trustees and a secretary-treasurer, is it illegal foi the secretary to make motions at a meeting of the board? Answer. A secretary-treasurei would have no power, whatever to make motions at a meeting of tho board unless he is a trustee. Section 135 (3) of the Public Schools Act makes provision for a rural trustee acting as secretary-treasurer for the In the Estate of SARAH THOMP- SON, late of the Township ol Arteraesia, W'dow, deceased.
