A dividing line, every part of which is equa-distant from Prince Street and West

Kent Street Schools would run es follows:

From the corner of Water and Prince Street to the corner of Baytield Street and Spring Park Road. By following the

streets, the dividing line would begin at the corner of Princeand Water sireets; thence Grafton to Great

Fitzroy

and along Fitzrvy Street to Queen Street,

to Grafton Street along

Georges S.reet, thence to Street, thence to Chestnut Street, along Chestnut Street to Spring Park Road and on w the city If the proposal of the City Schoo! Board were carried out, all the Pro- testant children residing nurth and north-

west of this division would necessarily go

to Upper Prince Street School, and alj Protestant children residing south or south west would necessarily go to West Kent Street School. It will readily be seen that

the long distance walks for littie children would not be saved by the arrangement. If there are some complaints on that ac- count now, there would probably be-+many more if the proposed new arrangement But it is hoped that the

view of the difficulties

were carried out. Board have, in in the way and the opposition of a large ma- jority of parents, given up the idea of mix- ing the children of the schools,

‘LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The Guardian Again.

£1r,—The Gvardian this morning says :

‘One of the saddest evils following the re- peal of the Scott Act is the sending of young children to the saloons for beer. This, we are informed, frequently happens now, and some- times the children are sent by their mothers. Whatever faults the Scott Ac: had, it practi- cally put a stop to this evil.”

The editor may have the means of ascer- taining who purchase liquor in Charlette- town, but when he estates that under the Sevtt Act no lijuor was purchased by chil-

jdren, he states what every person who knows anything of Scott Act days knows to be untrus. It was notoricus§ that many purchases of liquor during those | times were made by women and children, and the reason was that the chances of these women and children being subpcened wre very sight. The Scott Act was in force in Charlottetown for ten years, many * the witnesses on the prosecutions under {the Act were minors, ranging from 14 years Would the Guardian man tell us where these boys learned to drink ? uot have been under the old ' license Jaw, for none of them remember it In Victoris the Scott Act is in force and | have no doubt but chat the place p -ssesses & temperance suciety and a branch jolthe W.C.T.
