If the mother has a cold, she should wear a gauze mask over her nose and mouth while she handles the child. Infants are much more susceptible to colds than older children and adults and they can suffer more serious effects from them.

Mr. Ladell said he considered it a very great honour to serve in that office and expressed the hope that through his chairman- ship, the Board would carry on successfully during the coming year. “We are a growing area,” he said, “We are growing very quickly. and if possible, I hope we can get a step ahead of the school population situation and stay that way." Vice-Chairman Calvert told trustees he appreciated the hon- our bestowed upon him and as- sured the chairman he would do everything possible to make his task easier and to assist in im- proving the educational system in the area. “I am proud of our area system,” he said, “and I hope to see it become even bet- ter.” N o Committees Appointed Chairman Ladell asked for the feelings of trustees on the mat- ter of dividing the Board into committees, each committee L0 have jurisdiction over a certain department of the Board. Last year the only committee formed was the Teacher Trustee Com- mittee, three trustees appointed to negotiate with the teaching stafl. It was the feeling of the trus- tees that since the Board was small in number (5), and in order to alleviate any unnecessary re- petition of work on the Board. all trustees should sit on the Tea- cher Trustee Committee. A motion to this effect was placed before the meeting by Mr. Hicks and Mr. Calvert, and the motion was carried unanimously. No other committees were set up as Mrs. Ralph Edwards was re- appointed to Thornhill Library Bd. as Area representative. Her appointment was moved by Trustee Hicks and seconded by Trustee Calvert. The Board’s other appointee is R. H. Nell, John Street, Thornhill. Upon the suggestion of Trustee Calvert, the Board agreed to ask Mrs. Ed- wards and Mr. Neil to meet with them at a later meeting to out- line their work as members of the Library Board. Cut Rate For New Groups it was decided the Board would function as a whole on all mat- ters. Appoint Library Representative forth Hicks Mention was made of some or- ganizations which use the school and whose meetings have been running an hour and more in ov- ertime.
