S. Smith and E.| "La Vickery of Oshawa Ad- dress Council---W, C. Pol lard Thought County Had No Objection to Paying 100 Per Cent. of Cost of Maintenance But Thought Rule Should Apply to All Counties--Matter is Laid Over (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Feb, 17.--The County Uouncil in its session this morning, laid over until its June session the question of the agréement asked by the Oshawa Board of Education whereby the county would pay to the city 100 per cent of the main- tenance of county pupils in the Collegiate Institute, and 80 per cent of the debenture cost. When H, 8 Smith and E, L, Vickery appeared before the council at its request yesterday, they were prom- ised that a decision would be made before the school term closed in June, although they asked for one at. this session. Whitby, Feb. 16--"This Council lias no. objection to payipg 100 'per cent, of the cost of maintenance oi county pupils and 80 per cent, of the debenture cost to the Oshawa Colle- giate Institute, but we feel that there should be uniform legislation throughout the province so that we would receive the same for schools in towns within the county," was the statement in County Council session today of W. C. Pollard, Uxbridge, chairman of the Education commit- tee, The matter of an adjustment in the present agreement between the coun- ty and the Oshawa Board of Educa- tion was under fire throughout to- day's session, and after a lengthy de- bate in the morning, the Oshawa Board of Education was under fire throughout today's session, and after a lengthy debate in the morning, the Oshawa Board was asked by tele- phone at noon to send representa- tives over for the afternoon' session to explain some matters of which the council were doubtful. H, 8, Smith, chairman of the special committee of the Oshawa Board of Education ap- pointed to deal with this question, and E, L. Vickery, member of the board, responded, and on motion of Stiver, Scott and Croxall, Whitby, were heard at the opening of the ai- ternoon session, Mr, Smith and Mr, Vickery both pointed out that the Oshawa Board wanted, if possible, a decision on this question at this session of the coun- cil. It is very probable that the Col- legiate will be crowded to the roof in September, and, while the Board will in any event allow the couniy pupils to remain until after this term closes in June, they could not go back to the city council and ask for in- creased accommodation, to accommo- date county pupils, when the county was paying at the rate of 6634 cents per pupil, while the city was paying 87% cents. If the county pupils were excluded, the board would be able to get along for two years, they esti- mate, without building any further addition, and would save the county grant in three teachers' salaries, Referring to the legality of the agreement, the deputation pointed out to the council that the judgment han- ded down in Lincoln county establish- ed that the county and the municipal ity had this definite legal right, to make an agreement whereby the county pays 100 per cent. of the cost of maintenance, and a proportion of the debenture cost. Mr. Pollard then explained the ob- jections which are felt in the county, the first one being that while there was apparently a definite legal right established by the Lincoln County judgment, the time for filing an ap- bad not yet elapsed, and it would not be wise to make an agree- ment at this session which might be set. The second one, is that, while they have no objection to the 100 per cent. maintenance payment, the council felt that they should reccive the same {rom other counties which come in to schools in towns in Ontario county. This would about even things up, and the county would not feel the extra payment to the Oshawa school. He fc't that, if the Provincial Legis- lature would pass uniform legislation to this effect, there would be no ob- jection. It was a matter of adjust- ment, without, if possible, raising the i were three things for the council to do, Mr. Pollard stated, first was to enter into the agreement with the Oshawa Board of Education to pay 100 per cent. of the mainten- ance aud 8) per cent. of debenture cost; second was to build a county y school in a convenient lo- cation, the third was to.memor- alize Toy Provincial Government to pass uniform legislation for the whole province whereby each county paid 100 per cent. of the maintenance of county pupils in schools without the county. The delegation were thank- ed for their presentation of the Osh- awa Board's request, and the matter was temporarily laid over by the < -------- a The influence of Christian Da- tions slowly but surely transforms the heathen.

Road construction would - cost, it was estimated, $30,850, bridges machinery $1,000, and superinten- dence $4,700, half of each to he paid by the Provincial Government, Interest will amount to $15,500, and the county's share of suburb- an road expenditure will be 310. These figures will have be revised, however, by the com- mittee to take care of a half mill reduction ordered by council from the 2:5 mill rate proposed by the committee. Discussion waged for some time over the first clause of the report, which provided for the paving o 3.191 feet of twenty feet eo, in Uxbridge, which has been designated as a connecting link by the Provin 1 Highways depart- ment. Since it, was almost forced upon the county by the provisions of the Highway Improvement act amendment of 1926, the menihers felt that they could not get around the expenditure, $17.346. Th port 'recommended the selling certain road machinery; that designation of the second conces- sion line of Broek Township and the Altonia road in Pickering town- ship as county roads be left with the committee for investigation: that the County Road Superinten- dent's report be accepted. printed afld distributed; that stop signs be erected at intersections of two county roads or a county and 2 township road. and that the insur- ance on the roads and bridges Le renewed The report of the Agricultural Committee; presented by the chair- man, G.

The report of the House of Ref- uge was received and adopted. This showed that the aversge actual cost per inmate, less produce rais- ed on the premises. was £5.22 per week. In answering a questiop regard- {ing the installation of a duplicate 'lighting system at the House of Refuge. authorized last year, R. J Underwood, Whitby. chairman of the County Property Committee, explained that flood lights hawe been purchased and will be install- ed as soon 28 possible. These will be on a separate circuit from the House of Refuge lighting system and will light up the fire escapes, from top to bottom. In case of fire, there will be abundance of light on the fire escapes, even though the fire should cut off the aciual House circuit.

E. O'Neill, a survey of the i Oshawa Collegiate Institute has just been made as feature of tha (Chamber of Commerce organiza- tion campaign. The educational director, Henry | Clark, addressed the students at | their assembly period on Wednes- | day morning, February 16, He distributed a series of questions to the young people with the request that they return their answers next day. The questions covered the pres ent anticipations of the students as to their vocation in life, their in- ! tention of remaining in, or leuv- ing, Oshawa, and an expression as | to what they thought the Chamber of Commerce shonld undertake for the improvement of the city and community It was pointed out to the swu- {dents by Mr. Clark in his address that while it might not make much difference to the older residents of Oshawa what kind of a place it may be fifteen or twenty years | from now, it will be a matter of | vital concern to the present young- er generation who will then be [ the men and women responsible for its civie, commercial and social life. Out of about 750 questionnaires | distributed, 661 sets of answers | were received. They offer an ex- { cellent cross section reflection of | the thought of the students re- garding the questions submitted (to them. From the 1st Form, 280 papers were received, from the | 2nd, 162, from the third, 110, frome the 6th, 31, and 16 replies were | undesignated as to Form. Replies Tabulated, Number expecting to remain in | Oshawa, 468. Number expecting to go elsewhere to live and work, 142. U'ndecided as to future loea- | tion, 50.

Vocations, According to their present in- clinations and ambitions, there are in the Collegiate Institute, 145 pro- spective stenographers, 22 secreta- ries, 44 teachers, 37 nurses, 2 engineers and 19 mechanics. Future doctors number 28, druggists 10, musicians 7, dieti- cians 6, while 94 expect to enter business of various kinds. Avia- |tion as a vocation appeals to 6; draftsmen, salesmen, electricians [re librarians number 3 each and 14 young ladies give "marriage" as their intended oecupation. Single occupations considered | include a clergyman, a mission- {ary, a detective, an author, a news- 9 | paper writer, a University Profes- jsor, a designer, a commercial arr- ist, a motor mechanic, a carpenter land a labourer. Suggestions for Chamber of Com- merce That the young people are ob- serving local conditions is evident {from the range of suggestions of- fered in answer to the question. "What. as a future citizen, do youn suggest the Chamber of Commenrse undertake for the improvement: of Oshawa?" More paved streets are suggest-. ed by 105, better street car and bus transportation by 111, a Tech- nical School by 74, a new, modern hotel by 76, an improved Fire De- partment by 41 and improved Po- {lice Departmnent by 22. Completion of the harbor is ad- vocated by 98 students and 76 suggest a new City Hall. New and diversified industries should be se- cured according to 93, park extes- sion receives the support of #66, while 30 want a swimming-pool, and 259, the largest number agree- ing on any ome item, suggest a first class hockey arena. City beautification, better street lighting. a modern ¥. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A, are also regarded as desirable by many. - A few suggest the cultivation in Oshawa of more "ecivie pride". The intelligent interest of the Collegiate Institute students im the welfare of their city is regarded at Chamber of Commerce head- quarters as a challenge to greater efforts in behalf of the develop ment and improvement of Oshaws through organized co-operation.
