Saunders Was called upon to entertain the members present with his views on the subject of horti- culture. which he proceeded to do. There are many ways. he said, of keeping up the interest of the subject of horticulture : one popular way was by frequent exhil Sof Howers and other products of their skill. Exhibitions are, asa yeneral rule, overdone, and apt to result in disaster rather than the promotion of the objecis sought to be ai .

He saw no r why a society of this kind should not prove a success in this District. Mr. John Saul fo!- Jowed in similar words of encouragement. He thought their weekly meetings Would prove Valuable to all. He desired “to be a hard worker, and to. assist. in impa re ceiving knowledze. The chat ank ing the society for the compliment of electing him, sugested that the encouragement of a lady membership would help the cause. Their interest in flowers and shrubbery is prover. Dial.

In view of the importance of the subject, he recom: amends immediate remedy or the vaeation of she roo) The light and ventilation are both very defective, and he thought that the Dis- trict Commissioners should be asked to auth- orize @ sufficient expenditure to correct these evils, either by changing the direction of seats and desks or other methods. Many other of the school buildings are in a bad condition, Dut not so bad as this. Mr. Marbury said that this was a most important subject, and he moved that the letter be forwarded to the Dis- trict Commissioners at onee. Mr. Warden ex. pressed doubts as to whether the board had jurisdiction of the subject. Dr. Cox sngzested areference to the health off thorough examination. Dr. V : t there could be no question to the authority of the board overthe matter,and urged prompt action. After some further discussion Mr. Marbury moved that the sanitary committee e charge of the subject with the health offi- eer and make a thorough investigation; aad the motion was adopted.
