All parties are agreed th.it there is .1 tremendous wastage going 011 dirougii our lioys and girls leaving school it 13 tears of age, and then in the short ■pace of a few months, forgetting nearly Tcrytliing that their former teachers have so lalioriously tried to impress upon their youthful miitds. Many educationists are :n favour of enforcing the attendance of young yieople at the school for a further piriod: either (as proposed by .Sir Henry Hibliert) by compulsory attendanc<^ at wening classes up to the age o 10 or 17, or as recommended by Councillor Garnett) by


increasing the school age at the Day school. This is a thorny question which has not


yet been considered by our local rulers. iVhen they have finally settled the intric­ acies of religious -dilferences, structural alterations, wear and tear, and other iin IBttaiu matters which, after all, are but indirectly connected with the “edcuation” of young people, they may very profitably turn their attention to a recent circular of tin Lancashire County Council relating to '(H)|K:ration with employers. No doubt ■mplov-rs of labour can do much towards rhe benefit of their young employees by "ffering special jirizes for good attendance ■

authorities are pressing students to obtain some scientific instruction before commecing the study of a technological subject such as Cotton Weaving. The Wood Carving class will be a boon to joiners and chair makers and also to others who may net necessarily intend to make woodworking their means of livlihood but who may derive Lot.a pleasure and profit from attending a course of lessons at this class.

^ dhe Time Table includes many and


various subjects but we once more point out that Cookery is conspicuous by its .ib- sence. ^ We have previously commented t n the omission of a class in this subject end we would respectfully point out to the Com­ mittee that it is m.Tny years since cooke.'v lectures were held at the Technical School and from the remarks and enquiries we haee received we think they would meet a public demand if they were resumed. We have of course nothing to say about private clas;,'s whicli are occasionally held at Sunday Schools and private houses, but as we have no higher grade or other day school giving instruction to our girls in this importalt subject, we suggest it Is the duty of Kie Committee to hold Cookery classes either at the Technical School or .at one of th;ir other evening schools and we trust dwy will repair the omission without del.iy—■ particularly wlien tliey hear that tlie Co­ operative .Society have grown tired of w.-ut- ing tor them and are preparing to run Cookery classes on their own premises.


In many towns tlie Day schools teach


cookery to the children with great success and Ixiiiefit to the family life, and it is a well known fact that good cookery makes good-tem])ered citizens. It is high time a move was made in this direction.


Tile attention of the Managers of the


Council School having been called to the fact that in allowing any religious teaching in the Council school without the consent of tlie Education Committee they were act­ ing illegally, the gentleman raising the pomt being a member of the first body of man­ agers and the Committee having sanctioned the time table, the Managers naturally thouglit tliat they were acting within their rights especially sudi teaching being free from any dogma or denominational teaching But ill order to come within, the letter of the .\ct, they, at the earliest opportunity met and have submitted the syllabus of the opening exercises for the apprwal of the Education Committee; such syllabus being lodged :d the Town Clerk’s office for in­ spection by any member of the committee, so that if any dogmatic or denominational teaching i.s therein contained the Committee will lie in a position to delete the same, as the Managers are desirous to clear them­ selves of being a party to sanction any dogmatic or denominational teaching in the Council .School. • « «

They are what are known as first contact beds, and the idea is that they should be used in bad weather wlieii the effluent is very concentrated. After passing through the bacteria beds the effluent will pass into the filter beds and afterwards the effluent will flow on to the land before entering llie river. 'Hie cost of construction has been greatly reduced, as the banking of the beds lias been made from the excavations from the two settling tanks for which bor­ rowing powers were obtained about a couple of years ago, so that all that_ was required for the new beds was the clinkers with wliich they were filled. It is expected tliat the beds will prove satisfactory and turn out an effluent much improved though thev are being used chiefly as an e.xperiment, It is also lioped that the beds will be able

E X T E N S I O N S AT THE SEWAGE FARWl . OBENING OF NEW B.ACTERLA BED.8.


On Wednesday afternoon, the members


of the 'Town Council and a numlier of Cor­ poration officials assembled at the Sewage Farm for the purpose of oiieniiig tlie new bacteria filter beds which have recently been constructed on the most improved and up-to-date principle. The effluent now passes through the old filter beds and then flows into the new bacteria beds and after­


fore entering the river, thus making the effluent much purer. Amongst those pres­ ent were Aldermen T. Cowgill, J. Robin­ son, J. Norcross, Councillors H. Parkinson, W. L. Grime, J Clarke, J. Scott, J. Sagar, T Garnett and J. A. Wade, Mr. Bleazard, surveyor, Mr. T Davis, inspector of nuis­ ances, and -Mr. R. Barrett, Gas manager.


to Depreciation Fund which, notwithstanding _jT919 3s. 4d. has been e.xpended on Cap­ ital from tliis fund this year, stands at ;£3,696. JHiis is a decent reserve for contingencies. We are thankful that in these times of high rates we are getting small reductions on the Gas, but we think still further relief might be given instead of heaping up a larger reserve. If Gas were made cheaper, people would use more for

in every house, Tlie Water Fund we are sorry to find, is


not in as good a condition, the nett profit being only £233 T2s. 6d. This has also been carried to Depreciation I'und, from which a sum of £960 6s. 8d. has been ex­ pended on Capital Account this year, leav­ ing this Fund at the small figure of £77. This is a very small reserve indeed and justifies the Water Works committee in seeking to find sources of additional revenue Whether they were wise in their selection of such sources we do not offer an opinion. They may be hampered by their Act of Parliament, but it seems to us that a very small increase in everybody s rate would be preferable to a selection such as was made a short time ago.


In the District Fund we are pleased to


find that the income has been kept well within the expenditure, the receipts being £379 13s. Od. more than the payments. This has wiped off last year's deficit and left a credit balance of £'246 10s. Od. There has not been any heavy or extraor­ dinary expenditure during the year, but two improijimtints we niay mention, which though the price may seem heavy, are well worth the money. One is the widening of Waddington Road near the Crown Inn at _i


wards travels the distance of the fields be-1 cost of £288 lls^ lOd.^, and the ofoer ^s


the widening of Back Lane at a cost of £71 5s. 5d. llie Private Streets Improvement Fund


has been a very inactive one this year and calls for a little comment as regards the accounts, but we shall refer to this subject on some other occasion.


;The Police Pension Fund is steadily in-


creasing, and the funds in hand are 9s. 7d. Tliere has been a draw on it during the present year, and there will be another draw by the sad death of P.C. Taylor. The fund up to now has been an accu­


mulating Fund, but it will not in the future increase at such a rapid rate.


The Free Library Fund has had a special


income during the year of £60 from dona­ tions, and we suppose is open to other in­


come of this nature. Tlie Higher Education Fund has ex­


ceeded its income this year by £46 3s. Od. We do not hear much of the Grammar School scheme now except that the Govern­ ors have been appointed. They certainly do not show much life yet. That the town has lost £2,000 to £3,000 promised for the improvement of these premises and the provision of better Technical class rooms does not seem to bother anybody. We must be an easy-going lot of people.


In the Elementary Education Fund we


find the receipts are in excess of the pay­ ments by £49 3s. 2d., which reduces last


yeaPs deficit from £535 16s. 4d. to. £48.6 12s. 2d. We pay a lot of money in this department, but besides the education of


our children, look what we get in
