deny themselves many things they have
been accustomed to and many must go
without needed clothes Most can get
credit in a small way, but it is humiliat-
ing to have to keep creditors waiting and,
moreover, half the ordinary expenses OF
life require cash.
az have known times when certain
teachers had only bread to eat and also
many instances of help being pressed on
those who would not ask IT." said Prin-
cipal Emma Stincen. "Many have been
simply desperate at times and 1t has been
so discouraging that 1t has taken their
heart for their work out of them and
thus been an injury to the schools
Besides the teachers and janitors and
those dependent on them and their sala-
rtes Of from S25 a month up, the loss or
nearly 5000 900 and the delay in paying
January salaries has been a hardship to
thousands of others. All over the CITY
landladies have had to wait for needed
board and rent payments, and have had
TO put off their own creditors because o
1t. In every line of business and profes-
sion the two months loss and three
months wait have caused Inconvenience
and distress.
Meanwhile the teachers committee is
seeking a %ay to get a few cents on The
dollar at least out of the wreck. Some
look to future bond issue under the new
charter. Elisha Brooks suggests tnCreaE-
ing the monthly salaries one-twefth n
the amount due for one year, which could
be legally done. But the new charter goes
into effect on the first of the year. and II
limits the salary fund to $2S for each pu-
Pill in average attendance. Under the new
charter Principal Brooks plan would
have TO be accomplished within this limit
This might be done during the fiscal year
beginning July next and before the char
ter goes into effect. Under the new char
ter salaries will be safe in a special fund
Amid all this trouble the teachers re
ceived a new scare the other day in news
from Sacramento that there was pending
a bill threatening their priced civil ser
vice tenure by requiring the annual cleo
ton of teachers throughout the State.
Thereupon there was another big mass
meeting at the Girls High School on
Monday, when Charles II. Murphy, W. D.
Kingsbury and Deputy Superintendent
Mark were appointed to go to Sacra-
mento and look after this and other
threatened legislation. The bill was
quickly amended so as to except cities and
counties. but there is danger even with
that change, for nobody can tell until
the Supreme Court gets through with II
whether a general law applies to San
Francisco or not.
