Board OF Education and Superior Court
Proceedings.
SANTA ANA, Nov. 29.-The city board
OF education held its regular monthly
meeting last evening.
DIR. Scheurer's report on the condition
OF the water OF the west end school was
read and placed on file. The report is
the same as published in the HERALD
few days ago.
The following communication from
DR.. Menzes, declining the appointment
as q me mber OF the board of education,
was read:
81 have been informed by your secre-
tary OF my election as member OF your
honorable body.
ssAllow me to thank you for the honor
conferred.
IT believe the board of education to
be the most important board in our city,
as it not only handles a large part of the
public funds, but it has the more i'm
portant duty of considering the ad-
vancement and education of our chill
dren.
II further believe that no one should
accept the position who cannot give con-
siderable OF his time to looking after the
interests OF the schools, for it is my
opinion that they will in q great meas
ure advance only in proportion to the
time and study given them by the board
of education.
"Owing to the fact that my time is go
fully occupied by my profession and
other engagements that l would not be
able to give the necessary time 1T de-
wanda 7 faaI NV dnkv In daeltna tho
honor conferred"
Placed on file.
The students, in q communication,
ask the board that Friday be allowed as
holiday and that the time be made up
ON q day near the close of the school.
Prof. Perham said that the teachers
were in favor Of the same thing.
Keech thought it was doubtful
whether the schools could be kept open
ON legal holiday, and thought the loss
could not be made up at some future
time.
The communication was placed on file
without any action having been taken
on 1t.
