CARNARVONSHIRE EDUCATION COMMITTEE. PROPOSED NEW SCHOOLS AT LLANDUDNO, LLYSFAEN AND BETTWSYCOED. THE GOVERNMENT AUDITOR AND MEMBERS' EXPENSES. (From our Reporter.) At a meeting of the Carnarvonshire Education Comaiibtee, this (Thursday) morning, the tollow- ing local matters were dealt with :— f o GYFFIN CHURCH SCHOOL. Reporting on the work of this school, H.M. Inspector stated that since the last report the mixed department of the school had suffered through several changes of teachers. The pre- mises continued to be seriously overcrowded. The schoolroom, usjd by older scholars, provides ac- commodation for 48 children on the ten square feet basis, and there are 73 children on the re- gisters, 70 of whom were present when the school was visited. Considering the numerous diffic-ul ties under which lessons have been given, the attainments of the pupils reflected high credit upon the zealous headmaster. In the Infants' Division the children read fairly well, and have acquired considerable dexterity in kindergattcn exercises.

LLANDUDNO JUNCTION CENTRE. According to H.M. Inspector's report on handicraft at this centre, it is still not properly equipped with store cupboards, which are wanted in order t.),-t finished work may be p: cseITed for inspection. The scheme of work needs recasting. Some of the exercises have been doing duty in the coun- try for nearly twenty years. There should be more connection between the handicraft and the school gardening, and closer correlation of handi- craft and other school work could bo developed The boys should be encouraged to take notes and draw freehand diagrams and make free studies of the tools they use. The training of the boy is more important than the making of the model, end the former should receive more attention.

LLANDUDNO COUNTY SCHOOL CENTRE This centre, reports the Inspector, is a good one, well lighted and arranged, and well equipped with very good benches. The habit of note- taking should be cultivated. The bench work methods are fairly good, but there is a tendency which should be checked, viz., to get the work done quickly, rather than by correct methods and with dw proper tools. The bench work is of good quality.

SUPPLEMENTARY TEACHERS. Twenty-three teachers from the Llandudno Junction Saturday Classes sat for the examina- tion of the Committee ,and the examiners stated that the question of plotting a curve on squared paper was well done by a few only, out of the 120 candidates.

SALARIES. It wf.s decided to inform Miss Mary Jones, cooking mistress, Llandudno, that the committee are unable at present to consider her application for an ,'nerease of salary. Miss Nellie Nether- wood, Art. 50 teacher, is to be paid m accord- ance with the committee's scale of salaries from the commencement of the second year of her en- gagement.

DISALLOWANCES BY THE GOVERNMENT AUDITOR. A letter was read from the Government Auditor in which he stated that in the accounts for the period ended March 31st last of Mr David Thomas, assistant secretary of the Education Committee, he had disallowed the sum ot £ 4 15s 8d, being part of a sum of £ 6 5s 6d en t.ered and charged as and for a payment to Mr Evan R. Davies, the secretary to the Committer. The sum of B6 5s 6d (part of which he had disal lowed) was the amount of the expense:; incurred by the North Carnarvonshire Inquiry Committe-3 in holding inquiries wnhin the area ot the ad- ministrative county of Carnarvon in relation to proposals for the closing of three non-providel school, and Cel lain general inquiries as to the accommodation in nine provided schools. It appears from the information supplied to me at the audit, continued the Auditor, that thi Inquiry Committee consisted of five members of the Education Committee of the Carnarvonshire County Council. They were attended by certain officials of the Authority, and by one 01 Hi- Majestv's liL'-p.?ctoi"s oL.Schools, whom it ap- pealed they had invited to attend. The sum of So 5s 6d was the cost of meals and bels at an hotel where they stayed. All, however, d'd not appear to have "remained for the night, and some only partook of luncheons provided and paid for. I was unable from the information before me to ascertain the individual expenditure, other than that incurred by the Secretary, Mr Evan 1-t Da vies. I found that his personal expenses amounted to the sum of £1 8s lOd, which 1 al- lowed inasmuch as by the terms of his appoint- ment he appeared to be allowed his traveling and other expenses, when upon the business 11 the Education Committee, in addition to his salary, and I disallowed the remainder, v £4 163 8d as aforesaid. At a preliminary audit of the accounts of the County Council, my attention he.d been called to the h-rg3 amount of ',he expenses incurred bv the Eiticpt,on Committee and their officers ill travelling by motor car and otherwise, and in personal expenses by way of provision of meals an I refreshments. I did not disallow the cost of the two motor cars used in this case, as it was not possible for me to discriminate between which, were used by the members and by the officials who Were required to attend. I mane the disallowance of £4 6s 8d for the following reasons.-(j) Because there is no provision in the Local Government- Act, 1888, nor in the Edu- cation Act, 1902, nor in any other statute by which the cost of members of the Edu- cation Committee incurred in staying at hotels, or in 'the provision of meals for their refresh- ment, and that of persons invited to attend wilh them, can be a legal charge upon the rates of the county of Carnarvon when performing adminis- trative duties within the area cf the county. (2) Because the expenses were incurred in perform- ance of the ordinary duties of a member of the Education Committee. (3) Because it was the

MR PERCY SMALLWOOD. Mr Percy Small wood, who is the champion mi.ddle-dist-a-TIc.o runner of the world, is spend- ing a short holiday at Llandudno, where he in tends to st.ay for about a mouth. He is a native of Conway. He recently comnhf^d a eleven weeks' tour of the American Hippodromes, where he met witi grroat success. month he broke the five mile record in tie United States. duty of the members of the committee to pay their own expenses when performing their out it. s within the area of the county. (4) And because the Assistant Secretary had no authority in law to pay the said expense, which I have disallow ;d. and to charge the same in his accounts. The committee decided to appeal against the disallowance.

TREFRIW SCHOOL. A letter Wiati read from the selncol correspon- dent asking the committee to make a contribu- tion towaids the ccst of conveyance of four children at:endmg th.e fchcoL It was decided to make -onquiries respecting the circumstances of tihe parents.

A LLANDUDNO ROY'S ATTENDANCE RECORD. It was decided to award a watoh to W. Krfhn. of the Lloyd-st. Boys' School. Llandudno, who has ffi-ado six years' compete attendance, with the exception, cf a short interval of compulsory ab- sence in 1906.

LLOYD-STREET SCHOOL, LLANDUDNO. The Secieitary reported that the a-rrangemenits for the (purchase of the kind at the back of this "ochOlOl from Lord Mo tyr; hd now been com- pleted, the purchase mom?y bein>g £ 444.

LLYS'FAEN SCHOOL ACCOMMODATION. The Secretary submitted a report showing that he had mot the managers of the Llvsfaen ScSiool, who cxppesgisd a desire tlvut the Educa- tion Committee, shou'd prepare a scheme showing how the school premises couid be improved. He pointed out the iniriic, f this sugges- tion. It was suggested that the requirements of the Board of Education might be modified if the school were converted into a lower standard school. and the children of the higher standards were aoeomrnodated at the new school to be buiit at Pen-mae.nrhos. The managers promised to consider tliis suggestion. He discussed with the Parirfi Council the site provision all v acquired for a. new school from Mr David Morrie, at Pen- maonrhes, and another sit-c suggested by Mr J. V. Rivrjes. at O d Cdwyn, adjoining the pump- ing staitaon. The Pari-sfh Council unanimously aaejited the view that the site at Pen.maenrhos, c-n M.r David land, we,. much sutperior, and that t.he other tnde was u'Disuiitabl-e as re. garded (1) level, (2) sunallness of area, (3) lack of facilities for wu<ir^oiroTi't if neoes^jry at anv future time. (4) cost. The Parii-h Council fur- finer expressed the view that it would be diffi- cult to obtain a mormilaht.e. sabe than t.h.1.t offered by Mr David Morns. The arciiitccx was wiStructed to preparo plans' of the now school promiscu to be erected a.t Peinmaeniiioi-. includ- ing a. ccim-jj'ete teehr.iioal centre.

It was decaded t,,11t the North Carnarvon En- qmDry Ocfinmittee be instructed to enquire and re- port aa to a fiuitebb ;;ite.

THE NEW COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICTS. PO:NTS FROM THE SCHEME. A copy of the draft revised Denbighshire in- termediate and technical education scheme is now to hand, and the following points from the volume will bo of interest to those concerned m the secondary education at Colwyn Bay and A Liez-gele. The scheme provides for the division of the existing Colwyn Bay and Abergek; School dis- trict into two districts, one for Abergele and the other for Colwyn Bay. The Abergele dis- trict will include Abergele urban district, with a population of 2083, and an assessable value of EIO,142 10s; Abergele rural district, population 1067, assessable value 216,104; Bettws-yn-Rhos, 655 and -129ib; Llanddubs, 707 and £ 3099: Llan- fairtalhaiarn, 954 and £ 4033 10s; and St. George, 2§4 and £ 1844 10s. The Colwyn Bay district will comprise: Llan- drillo-yn-Rhcs, population 7153, assessable value £ 73,059 10s: Llanelian-yn-Rhos, 388 and £ 2024 10»; and Eirias, 1531 and £ 11,779. Tho total population in the Abergele district is given as 5740 and total assessable value, E38199 10s. The Colwyn Bay totals are S077 and M,863 respectively. It will therefore be seen that the population in each case is based on the census of 190.1. The population of the Colwyn Bay district at present is well over 15,000. Under the heading "Pension Fund," the scheme pro-ides that "the County Council, if they think fit, may out of such portion of the income of the general fund as hereinbefore dire, t.cd, form afund for headmasters and assistant masters in the county schools, or they may contribute, in common with any other county in Wales, to a Joint Pension Fund for headmasters and assistant masters of county schools, provided that any such fund shall be contributed to under regulations approved in writing by the Board of Education." With reference to a county school headmaster's qualifications it provides that "the headmaster of the school shall have taken a degree in the United Kingdom. The headmistress shall have taken a degree in the United Kingdom or passed examinations at Oxford rw Cambridge which, if those universities gave the title of degree to women, would have entitled them to a B.^i. de- gree." "The stipend of a headmaster shall be fixed by the school governors, but the stipend of a headmaster hereafter appointed shall not be less than C300 or more than £600 yearly. The stipend of a headmistress shall not be less than C250 or more than E-500. Capitation fees shall not be paid to any headmaster or headmistress hereafter appointed. "The County Council shall have power to dif- ferentiate from time to time the course of in- struction in any of the schools so as to give spec-

"(c) The County Council may cooperate with the Councils of neighbouring counties in making the Abergele County School a centre of rural and agricultural education for such counties. "(d) Nothing in this clause shall affect pre- judicially the status or emoluments of the present headmaster of the Abergele County School."
