He also welcomed the honor- ed guest of the evening, Mrs. A. M. Johnston, who as he said has been an outstanding worker in, the cause of retarded children in this province. Mrs. Johnston is leaving on Saturday for St. John's, Newfoundland, to which detachment of R. C. M. P., her husband, Staff-Sergeant John- ston has been transferred.

Mrs. Johnston replied fittingly. She spoke feelingly -of her as- sociation with the Board and said she would ever treasure fond memories of these meet- ings. Slhe extended an invitation to all to visit her in her new home if at any time it proved convenient.
The minutes of the last annual meeting were then read and adopted on motion. The finan- cial report was then given bv the secretary-treasurer, Mrs. Stew- art Ives and was found to be satisfiactory.
In the President's report, he noted that while nothing spec- tacular VVBJS accomplihhed dur- ing the year he felt that progress had been made and the march was steadily forward. He spoke regarding the work of Miss Elizabeth Coyle who was en-
, gaged in training during the year
at the day—training cla-s-s and said she had proven herself to the extent that she had been en- gag-ed to teach in the class next year. ,
_He expressed his ‘regret that MISS Jacqueline Cummiskey would not be with the class next year and exaended good wishes for success in the continuation of study next year. He then thank- ed the members of the Board for their co-operation and all organ- izations and societies who had helped during the year. He' thanked the retiring members of the Board for a job well done and welcomed the new members.

Ask Coal Be Used In Thermal Power Plant
O*1‘TA.WA (ClP) - The federal government has asked the New Brunswick government. to use coal exclusively in the proposed East Saint John thermal power
plant, Resources Minister Al-vin Hamilton said Monday.
Mr. Hamilton told the Com- mons commlttee on mines, for- ests and waters that a general agreement on tederal aid for power has been signed with the N.B. government but it does not contain a clause demanding the use of coal.
He said that in original discus- sions concerning federal aid for the production of thermal elec- tricity in the Martltimes, the New Brunswick .government had asked that it be permitted the optional use of oil for the plant.
This was because at certain times residual oil from refineries could be obtained cheaply, reduc- ing the cost of power.
AID LOCAL ECONOMY
“Since the general agreement was signed," Mr. Hamilton said,‘ "the federal government has asked the province of New Bruns- wick to help the economy of the Maritimcs coal industry through
He added. that start of <:onstrur.:- tion of the East Saint John plant is entirely in the hands of the N.B. Power Commission. He did not know when it would be started but understood that tho busis of contract leIlLl:.‘l'S now was
