In connection with the School Baud, "Boycotting"
nu a small .citte seems to be coded on In Pole, At
the last °muted meeting, when the election of the
B incationd Omni:Dittos MN proceeded with,
all the gentlemen nominated one after the oth•ir
declined the honour. This was the m ire nor.
prising, 04 WWI of them are teachers in oar Sunday
Schools, and one would have thought that not only
was it a work for which they were pre-eminently
adapted, but that they would have lied cupids:able
pleasure in discharging the duty. However, t hip mood
wee soon out. It appeared thet when •mu dilate for

his support, be would be politely told to go—well, into
the next street. Really. It would seem, if Poole is a
reliable sample, the °poetry is hardly yet educated
enough to warrant an tiztanalou of the franchise. But
then, happily, Poole is not a reliable sample. Still, it
Is to be regretted gentlemen should allow themselves
to be bullied out of the roper performano of their
obligations by throe who (tOO% care a rap whether they
fulfil their own or not.

However, " • happy thought " occurred to Mr.
Councillor Fanner, vim, thst the aldermen for the time
being should be elected ea a School Attendance 0 in-
muter, and this wail agreed to. An ingealoom way of
gettlag out of the difficulty, certeinly.

I see by the bills that Mr. M. L. B sker of this

in a neighbouring town under the amylase of Mr.
Joeph An-h. Mr. Baker is " under-lined." to am •
theatrical phrase, sa "Ibi representative of the work-

say to that?
My contemporary, the Gmardi who tippet re to be
