W. Clement of Rutland. All were pres
ent with the exception Of Mr.. Fletcher
Mr. Smith said Tuesday:
There was strong feeling on
the part Of all. as expressed In
the papers presented, and the dis
cussions that followed, that some sys-
make our currency more elastic but also
make credits more elastic and so prevent
the constant liability of panlcs
THE idea seemed to be that there
should be some scheme devised which
would enable banks having good short
time paper to realize on it in time Of nec-
essity. and so prevent contracting credit
at time it should he extended
THE meeting was of interest and was
attended by financial men from ell over
the country. 1t Is likely TO do much TO

mary white schools, and an increase
of fifteen white secondary, increase in
enrolment is $50, the figures for 1908
showing 1896 enrolled, and the latest
report showing S,1S5. The average

siderably, 424 more being recorded
this year than last. The figures In
this department are, 1909, 4,942, 1910
1896. The scholastic population has
fallen from 1858 in 1909 to 1897 in

Der of teachers employed by the coun-

and the total value of school proper
ty is $12S,974, compared to $149.75O
for the year ending in 1909. The Value
