their request was accepted.

the three state schools were read and
accepted.

were instructed to report at an adjourned

The report of the committee on teachers
was adopted in regard to the appointment
of teachers. and they were recommended
to be elected to the several positions as
signed.
The three principals of the normal
schools, Messrs. Shepard, Soaring and
Allen, were elected by acclamation.
Hon. Thomas Simpson, of Winona, was
unanimously reelected president of the

pressing business daties, and Hon. H. B.

tract for heating and ventilating the insti-

be completed the present summer.
Directors Whitney and Mitchell and
Principal Allen were instructed to furnish
the st. Cloud institute with proper heating
apparatus and to expend the $500 ap-
tod hyt ho IN
and for finishing off the basement. This
work is also to be completed the present
season.
Directors Mitchell and Whitney were
further authorized to accept the pledge
of $1,000 offered by the ladies of st. Cloud,
without interest, and proceed to expend
the same in the erection of a house for
ladies in attendance upon the institute,
and this work will be pushed forward as
rapidly as possible.
The reports of the principals of the in
stitutes were largely statistical and show
same, and that the calls upon them tor
trained teachers from all parts of the state
is largely in excess of the supply.
"a Miss Nina WheeIock was elected to
take the position vacated by Mrs. Jacques,
for many years teacher at the st. Cloud
institute.
Whatever may have been the course of
the exodus of Prof. Boutelle and several
teachers from the Winona institute, their
action did not seem to produce a ripple
among the members of the board. From
their unanimous election by the board by
acclamation, it would seem to be inferred
that the presidents of the several schools,
whateyar narSOnaI uuestionC mav bova
arisen, are giving entire satisfaction to
those who are over them.
The board concluded their afternoons
exercises by adjourning to meet at the
same place at 10 a. m. Tuesday, July 81.
