questions received from his district C3d) stated
toat the answer OF Mis- Parsons had not been re-
ceived. The circular had been sent to her and
she had returned answers not satisfactory 70 the
Board OF which she had been Informed
Mr.. Ricketts, asked how long the Board should
wait for her answer As her hrst answer was
unsatisfactory, AMI as nothing had been heard
from her since being Informed that Ii was so, II
would seem that the desired response must ne
dragged from her.
The matter va. left over to the next meeting.
Mr.. Miller, from the Committee on Text Books,
made a partial report, recommending Warren y
geographical series in the place Of those now In
use. new edition Of Kerls grammar will also
be introduced. These changes will perhaps be
the only ones made
Mr.. Uiermehle offered the following;

OF the teacher to get up several concerts every
year, a. he believed, for his own benefit He did
not object to paying the teacher a good salary,
but was opposed to the manner Of getting up these
Mr. Miller said that when the teacher of music
was Arst employed the understanding was that he
was to receive $500 per year and give four con-
Afser some further discussion the resolution was
sdopted-yeas 4, nays 3.
Mr. U,ermehle called the attention Of the board
to the rules in relation to the tranGfer Of pupils
from one district to another. He had that day
received an application from pupil retidIng In
The fourth district for admission into Miss Boggs'
school. He would ask tina. some definite rule
be established. The subject was referred to the
committee rules.
SIR Ellis stated an matter Of interest that on
Monday thirteen schools were opened on the
Island, TO whom 500 scholars were admitted
mr; Miller offered the following resolution;
which was adopted:
Rsso rsd, That the teachers Of the several
raphies in possession Of INDECENT pupils that they
may be exchanged.
Mr. Wilson moved that as there appeared to be
some Misunderstanding In regard TO the resou
ton relating TO concerts by the schools that the
vote by wutch II was adopted be reconsidered
Mr. Utermehle opposed the melton, and gave
his reasons al length for hav ng introduced the
resolution. The manner Of getting up the CON-

not get enough rzlary, let US 60 to the councils
and ask that IL be increased; but don't have any
concerts and send the public school children
hawking the tickets about the streets and Ia the
public Offices.
Mr.. Holmead hoped that the board would no,
pas the resolution He thought By passing 1,
they would oe violating their obligation. When
Mr.. Daniel frat Commenced they had allowed
him 70 give four concerts during the year. for
which he wss TO receive the benefits.
Mr.. Rickets asked how the concerts were gotten
up; II during the preparation some schools did
not miss their music Lessons for a month In order
theia few pupils from other schools should app~al
creditably b. fore the public.
Toe resolution was then referred 10 the com
rniuee on music Adjourned.
