TRUSTEES ELECTED FOR SEPARATE SCHOOL BOARD In conclusion I wish to thank the 1.O.D.E. and the Ladies of Charity and the Public Health Nurses of the Town of Timmins for their kind coâ€" operation and assistance. The monthly meetings were rather small with attendance, but those of the Executive Committee who did atâ€" tend thrashed out the most important ‘ases and were very enthusiastic. [ trust that the year 1925 will show the same spirit of enthusiasm and that the monthly Executive Meetings will have a larger attendance. _ The small attendance at these meetings is due no doubt, to the District being somewhat scattered and the distance separating them from Tiummins. Respectfully Submitted, Oscar Robertson, Local Superintendent. The recent election for trustees for the R.C. Sepanate School Board provâ€" ed of more than usual interest. The contest was keen, with five good men in the field and three places to fill. A feature of the election was the large vote given Mr. D. Lapraime. who headed the po‘ll with 135 votes. The total number of ratepayers votâ€" ing was 165, Mr. Laprairie securing a very large percentage of the total vote polled. The votes for the vamâ€" ous candidates were as follows:â€"D. Laprairie, 135 ; J. E. Newton, 123; F. Kehoe, 107; M. J. Moleski, 95; F. Boutin, 93. The three thus duly eâ€" lected were:â€"Messrs. D. Lapraimie, J. E. Newton and F. Kehoe.
