The report OF Miss Robinson, teacher
of music, showed 80 classes in the
month of December, with 279 in the
fourth reader, 1919 in the independent,
2O4 in the third, ], 1892 in the second,
900 in the first and 900 in the primer.
The report Of the Librarian showed
the average daily circulation to be 1855,
a reading room circulation OF 9SS and
fines of 81.
A communication from the janitor OF
the Sixth ward school was read, asking
for an enlargement of his salary on ac-
count of having to carry coal siuce the
natural gas was taken out. He thought
it was worth about So month more
TO carry the coal. The matter was re-
ferred 10 the Committee on Salaries.
One Of the members thought this same
condition of affairs was likely to occur
with several Of the schools, as all had
had more or less trouble with the nat
ural gas. Then followed a long discus
sion, but the motion finally prevailed to
| empower the Commissioners TO have the
natural gas taken out OF all the schools
until the first of April, and coal used in
its stead, and that bids for the furnish
ing of the coal be inserted in the news
papers.
The recent destruction Of the. Lincoln
School by IRE was next considered. AS
vet, nothing has been done toward re-
building the school, and the Board is
now making arrangements for accom-
modating the scholars in the hall Of the
Second Ward market house. Joseph
Bodley was appointed by the members
to represent the Board In the adjusting
of the loss, TO act in conjunction with an
other gentleman to De appointed by the
Insurance company. A petition signed
by Walter Rinehart and eighty others,
| asking for a new location for the
school, was received and filed, as was
also communication signed by Rine-
hart and Tatum, in reference to offering
| suitable sites.
The Board voted TO purchase a safe
10 keep the books and papers in, the
! same not to cost over 500. The safe
committee consists of President Dickey
and Messrs. Stanton and Hubbard.
1t was also moved that bill be pre-
pared and sent TO the Legislature, ask
Ing that the school census be taken on
or before the 10th OF May, instead OF
July as formerly. The motion pre-
vailed.
Adjourned.
