A very interesting report was then heard and went to show that the school boraird had not been idle during the last year, and many good improvements had been accomplished during this time. Some discussion took place in regard to the taxes. One of the audiâ€" ence considered that the taxes were not correct. This matter was most ably cleared up by Councillor D. Kerr, who explained the tax problem in a very proficient manner and considered that the tax bill was in perfect order. The trustees‘ report was adopted as read. â€"The chairman called for the nomination of an auditor for the ensuâ€" ing year. A suggestion was put to the mesting by Mr. Kerr, that owing to the amount of money involved in the course of a year by the schcol board he conâ€" sidered that the time had come when some public auditors should examine the books.

"Art Lever, native son of New Lisâ€" keard and formerly with the Troquois Falls "Eskics," and now leading marksâ€" man for the Windsor Bulldogs, has inâ€" ‘ituted an argument in the Canpro circuit against players boing credited with assists on rebounds. He claims that assists were introduced to develop team play while assists on rebounds are undeserved as the players concernâ€" ed failed on efforis which they institutâ€" ed. A London, authority supports Leâ€" ver‘s contention and another authority in Hamilton also subscribes to this comâ€"nion. On the other hand, from Stratford comes an opinion to the effect that a player who has been instruâ€" mental in carrying the play for the better part of the length of the rink and only fails on being outguessed by the goalie should be given some recogâ€" nition.. It does seem reasonable thiat the player who contributes the major effort should recesive some credit azainm/‘‘ the chap who happens to b> novering near the opposing goal and only has to flip his stick to secure the credit for a goal. The easiess part of getting goals is in flipping it into the ret after get‘lingzg by the defence. Leâ€" ver‘s argument doesn‘t ring traus where team play is the ambition of a club. The man who carries the puck to a position where the opposing goal may be effectively attacked shoytd, whio prsbably loafs through to slap in a goal off ‘a rebound is credited with a goal whereas hiz contribution is caomparaâ€" tively trifling." writing last week in his column», "Spo:f:ology‘"‘ in The North Bay Nugget says:â€"â€" A despatch from Hailleybury of last week says:â€"‘Enroute to the Akdiibi ligniite fields, where he is to pay a visit of inspection to> ‘the developments in the province‘s operations at this "find" Thomas F.

For five yoars Mr. Raymond was on» of the councillors of the West Ferâ€" ris towniship council and won the highâ€" est respect and popularity by his abiliâ€" ty hnd interest in municipal work. According to all who know him there is nothing small about J. C. Raymond but his physical size. In his work on the T. N. O. and in his municipal service, he has shown himself a broad man. He has retireqg this year from the West Ferris council, but is continuâ€" ing as secrotary of. the separate school board, a capacity in which he has giyâ€" en excellent service. Mr. Raymond is an able man in a debate and is well able to look after himself in public life. The Nugget makes a special point Ths T. N.
