Mr.. Bowenr Objection.
Mr.. Bowen objected to the appointment
of Miss Culver teacher of stenography
in the Business High School and of Mr..
Skinner as teacher in iron work in the
School OF Manual Training, on the gen eral
ground that a better selection might have
been made in each Instance. He moved the
substitution of the name of Miss Gardner
CO.. that of Miss Culver, but admitted that
n" had no candidate to suggest for the
other place.
Mr.. Darlington, for the committee, ex-
planned that their recommendation in the
case of the teacher of stenography was
based entirely on the papers submitted 10y
the various candidates, and said further
that there was no choice in the matter of
the appointment of Mr.. Skinner for the
simple reason that he was the only appii-
cant for the place.
The matter was put to vote, and the
committee sustained in each case, the
vote being six to one against each of Mr.
Bowen's motions to reject the appoint
ments.
Mary E. Bohlayer was appointed janitor
of the building corner Sth and / streets
southeast.
