TIMES HAVE CHANGED.'
SOCIALS IN SCHOOL BUILDINGS. "Tho time has gone past," remarked tho chairman of tho Education Board yesterday, "when our schools should bp used for socials and other purposes io ilin detriment of tho school equipment, and tho inconvenienco of the school work." This was apropos of a strong complaint by the teacher at Northland on the state of his school after one nf the periodical socials which had taken place recently. Bread-crusts, cake-crumbs, and all sorts of festive rofuso had been found lying about (he floor next day, and ho had been obliged to teach school in tho open-air till tho clean-up was over. Mr. AVilliam Allan argued with Mr Lee up to a cc-rtain point. They had to consider, however, tho position of theso back districts whore tho local school was tho only available building for such purnoses. Tho chairman did not look na if he _ favoured a comprorniso under any circumstances./ However, tho immediate question—the Northland trouble—was ultimately ' threshed out in committee.
