THAMES LOAN & TRUST
 co. CHECKS DISTRIBUTED
Large Proportion Already in the Hands of Savings Department De- Positors.

A large proportion of the 1.576 checks for the 40 per cent. dividend from the Thames Loan & Trust com- pany receivership have been delivered either in person or by mail. In the first two days during which the divi- dend checks were ready for distribu- ton about 800 were passed out.
 Some of those who had money in the savings department of the bank got the idea that the 70 per cent. div idend referred to the percentage of accounts that were to be paid. They were among the early birds on hand at the opening of the bank on the first day that, dividend checks were ! distributed for they thought that when 40 per cent. of the savings bank de- positors had been paid now. the others would have to wait.
 One of the largest checks paid out was for over sS.000. representing 6 | dividend on a S20, 900 account. The person receiving this check was ap- pareEtly in no hurry to get his money for he waited for nearly a week be- l fore he called for his check.

He is thorough ly at home on the subject of athletics especially track running, and held the close attention of all.
 General Secretary HMI made few opening remarks and then introduced MT. Miller. MT. Miller said his .dea of an athlete does not coincide with the type of high school athlete Wnich he chanced to see on the street ses- eral days ago, a young man saun- tering along the street with large sweater on the breast of which was the letter "N," his cap sloping over one ear and a pipe in his mouth. The benefit in athletics, said MT Miller, is the instilling of the qualities which 70 to further success in the future. The best athletes are those who have perfect control, mentally, physically and morally.
 MT. Miller said he is great devo- tee of track running, as that is one of the best forms of athletic training. Another reason why he believes so strongly in track running is that it does not require as much time to train in that line as gin other lines, such as baseball, football. etc. In track rac- ing every man has to depend upon himself MT. Miller. said he entered athletics through cross country run ming. He covered hilly course three

CITY IS OUT OF IT
COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION
DISTRICT DOES NOT INCLUDE
LADYSMiTH
NOR WILL CITY SHARE IN COST
Neither Has the County Superintend
ent Jurisdiction Over the Lady
smith Schools

No citizen of Ladysmith will be
eligible to election as a member OF
the newly-created county board of ed
ucation, which is to be elected this
spring, nor will Ladysmith have any
voice in the election Of this body
However, Ladysmith can congratulate
itself upon the fact that it will not
have to stand any portion Of the ex-
pense of this useless board, which
appears to be a waste of money.
1t appears that, contrary to the
general impression, the Ladysmith
schools constitute an independent
district, which is not under the jur-
isdiction and will have no part in
the election Or paying of expenses OF
either the county superintendent Of
schools or of the new county board
of education.
1t was thought that when Lady
smith returned to the district sys-
TEN that it again became part of the
county's educational system and
would have voice in the election OF
county superintendent of schools, An
opinion to the contrary, however,
has been received from the attorney
general of the state by County Clerk
Munroe
