Their influence on the lives of the younger citizens is lasting and impressive. Their decisions have to be well balanced and progressive; and their policy must combine the needs of the present as well as the future. To give our readers some idea of the extent of School Board business ive are giving some facts about the AVest Vancouver schools. This should be interesting reading to the taxpayers and parents and should assure the heartiest co- operahon being given the School Trustees in their labors.

The amount expended on the upi'eep, repairs and replace- ments in these buildings during 1928 was $1,822.54. In ad- dition to the above the sum of $2,282.75 was spent on the grounds. The cost of the caretaking and janitors'upplies of all school buildings for the year amounted to $5,490.40. Teachers'alaries for the year totalled $45,488.00, of which $17,690.00 was contributed by the Department of Edu- cation.
