NLUSTRIAL CLAGSFS VERY SUGGESSFUL RER: one this year was limited to a few courses. ** *Instruction was offered in Maclâ€" ine Drawing, Shop ‘Mathematies, Arithmetic, Chemistry, Dressmaking, Engiish for the nonâ€"Englishâ€"speaking. * The interest of the instructors in their work and in the individual students was excellent and the quality of instruction very good indeed, conâ€" sidering that this was the first year the evening class work had been atâ€" tempted. Principal Carter has devotâ€" ed h:mself unreservedly to the interest of the Day School and the Evening Classes. The success of the Evening Classes is due in large measure to his organizing ability and his effort to inâ€" terest all those who would be benefittâ€" ed by the service of the Evening for In considering the situation and laying plans for the proposed evening classes in Timmins in connection with the Government plans for technical and industrial education, the School Board here found much of benefit and interest in the Report of the Assistâ€" ant Director of Industrial and Techâ€" nical Education, Dr. J+ C. Miller. Dr. Miller‘s report says:â€"‘"*With a view to coâ€"operating with the Public School Board of Timmins in developing the rganization necessary to enable them provide instruction in vocational sunbjects in accordance with the Inâ€" dustrial Education Aect, I spent the 20th, 2l1st and 22nd. of Novemiber, 19190, in Timmins. (iPersonal conferâ€" ences were held with the individual members of the Board, with a repreâ€" sentative of the Separate Schools, with the officers in charge of the Holâ€" linger and Melntyre andâ€"with the Exâ€" ecnutive Committee of the Poreupine Mirers‘ Union No. 145 of the Interâ€" national _ Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers. Both the. officers of the companies and the represent-’ atives of the men showed keen interâ€" est and a willingness to coâ€"operate vith the educational authorities in deâ€" veloping a suitable programme of insâ€" truetion in industrial and technical subjects. On the afternoon of Nov. 2l1st. the Public School Board held a special meeting and anpomted an Adâ€": visory Industr‘al Committee in accord| ance with the requirements of the Act. This Committee held its first meeting | on the evening of Nov. 22, organized,! appointed a prineipal for the ev ening | classes, and approved ; s*eheduls of| classes to begin work immediately‘ afâ€"| ter the New Year.

This town has never suffered epidemics such as caused such distress in Cobal t and,other eamps. The sandy nature of the soil, with the con sequent natural filtration properties thus afforded, has nosdoubt ‘had much to do with this pleasing health conâ€" dition, but there is undowbtedly also another factor that should not be overlooked,â€"the efforts of the Medicâ€" al Health authoritiese to keep the health of the town in the best possâ€" ible way., ~The Medical Health author ities hbave always been thoughtful in their efforts to prevent health troubles This year, as in mpast years, they are urzing householders to boil all water used, not because the water is known dition, but another f overlooked al Health ‘‘*BOIL THE WATER‘‘ SIMPLY BY WAY OF PRECAUTION ! _ Reports from the cities suggest that there‘ is considerable unemployment in the larger centres. Rumor tells of the laying off of men in large numbers by l\'arizms industries and the total closâ€" !ing down of certain factories hitherto paying high wages. The city newsâ€" papers ha\e little to say regarding these matters, but that is supposed to be a way the city newspapers have on many occasions. If there is truth in 'the reports of unemployment in the !sonth,â€"â€"â€"and there are certain indicâ€" ations that the stories have at least a basis of truth,â€"there need not be too much sympathy wasted on the ableâ€" bodied men thrown out of work. There is lots of work for men ready to work. Ard the wages will be good too. The mines of the North 'Land can easily use two thousand more men, chiefly unskilled labour, or work that an ordinary intelligent man can learn quirekly. While two thousand more men are mentioned, more than this number would soon be employed if there were a goood sufficiency of; labour here. The established producâ€" ing mines here could use two thousand more men to complete their staffs, and with plenty of men in sight ther no doubt that several mines that have curtailed work or closed down for| lack of sufficient labour would reâ€"open on extended seale. ‘The mines lxexe! pay good wages and conditions are| good.
