special case that he wishes brought

concerns his school work most.
We have received through Mamie
kolda a complete report of the

the +. c. work was carried out. Miss

zie Evers, Welcome Grey and Ada

the Kolda schoolhouse Nov. 9th
Some desire to know the relation
that the Pupils X. {. sustains to the
school. My answer is, it sustains the
same relation to the school that the
lean-to does to the house-it widens
the foundation and makes the main
structure stronger. 1t is thus a val
liable adjunct, giving room for the
performing of much valuable work
which is necessary to the strengthen
ing of the main building which other
wise would not be performed. 1t
rounds out the pupils knowledge
by sending him into new fields OF eX-
ploratio it gives him taste for
the reading of the best literature at
our command thus creating in him a
habit which shall be OF inestimable
value to him through life.

The literary at the Maxwell school
house in Spring Hills twp. isexciting
a graet deal OF interest. When we
remember that the Carls, the Max
wells. the Lauzons, the Pattersons,
the Kelloughs are located in that
