In reply to a letter from the board regarding liability for accidents to pupilt at school the Education Department stat ed that the position as to the liability of school boards had been exaggerated, but it advised that boards should where pos sible insure themselves against such contingencies.

Letters of thanks are to be sent to Messrs. Newel 1, Baker, and Parrant for donations to the school.
