of Schools Downey notified Clerk Rich
ards that she had made apportionment
of money of the state fund, this district
being entitled to s7,OS9.6o. The letter
reads as follows:
Dear Sir: This is to notify you that
on March 81 I made an apportionment
(state) of s7,OS9.60 to the credit Of your
school district. Entire census in coun-
ty between the ages of 6 and 81 years,
S,S17: per capita, 81 cents. Census of
Butte district No. 1, $40"
After disposing of this communica-
ton there was an informal discussion of
the financial affairs of the district. and
1t was shown that the district is in a
healthy condition, there being $4,000
on hand and more coming.
Trustee A. T. Morgan, who resigned
several months ago and has not attend
ed meetings since, sent another COM
munication to the board. He requested
that the board accept his resgnatio
stating that he did not intend to par
ticipate in any more meetings. On mo-
ton of Burke. seconded by Lane, the
communication was referred to the
county superintendent. The clerk was
instructed to notify the Superintendent

Mr. Wharton says that if the teachers
appoint one of the older pupils TO take
charge of the youngsters on the TRIP
and keep them out of danger he will
not revoke the passes; but unless some
thing of the kind is done, he will be
compelled to keep the children off the
car. 1t has been a great advantage 'to
