Robinson re- ported that complaint had been made regarding the monthly re- port cards sent to parents. This matter was discussed with Mr. Brealey. It was pointed out that other complaints had been made in regard to these reports, par- ents having asked that the cards be marked in percentages instead of letters of the alphabet being used as symbols. It was decided by the board that the three pub- lic school principals be requested to form a committee and bring in a recommendation with a view to making these reports more intelligible to parents as to the standing of their children in their class. The report of the joint com- mittee of the North Shore school trustees was discussed at the last meeting of the West Vancouver board of trustees. The question of forming a municipal inspect- orial district comprising the three North Shore municipalities was gone into at some length. Chairman Elgar reported that such an inspector would be able to spend approximately four half days per school year in each class room, and the cost to the AVest Vancouver board was esti- mated to be about $500 per an- num. Some doubt was expressed by members as to the desirabil- ity of the IVest Vancouver board entering into a joint agreement for the appointment of an offici- al whose employment it might be impossible to terminate, should the agreement be found to be unsatisfactory. and also as to what advantages might be expected through the services of a municipal inspector as com- pared with the present system. It was resolved on motion of trustees Leyland and Fiddes that the West Vancouver representa- tives on the joint committee be asked to recommend to the com- mittee that representation be made to the department of edu- cation that the territory of in- spector Pollock (the present in- spector of schools) be curtailed, in order that more time for in- spection purposes may be devot- ed to the North Shore schools. Ambleslde IVest 28 Sonrisa on Trial Trip~ NET ENGINES ARE SATISFACTORY HOLLYBURN Barber Shop 16th 4 Marine EXPERT SERVICE E. MARSH Proprietor The Sonrisa has been complete- ly renovated and will be placed on the run probably next week. The cost of renovating the boat was $ 10,500, this including the in- stallation of new 96-horsepower internal combustion engines, which, on the trial trip held this iveek, gave the boat a speed of over ten knots. The Sonrisa, with her new en- gines, will now be able to hold her own with the other boats of the ferry fleet. and there is the possibility that a twenty-minute service in the evenings may be instituted in the near future. EVith the reeve and council on board the Sonrisa had her trial trip on Friday afternoon to test her new engines. She crcossed to Point Grey, where she cov- ered the measured mile at a speed of over twelve miles per hour. On Saturday evening she made the trip from Long Bay, Gambier Island, to Ambleside dock in one hour and three-quar- ters, which speaks well for her new engines.
