Teachers Reelected.

AT meeting of the Borough
school board last week, our old
teachers were all reelected for
the ensuing year. We do not
mean by the term old that there
is any evidence of senility or de-
crepitude about them for they are
as active and progressive set of
instructors as may be found any
where. This is proven by the
fact that they are reelected from
year to year. Three out of the
four teachers have been happily
married since they began to teach
in the McConnellsburg schools,
and there is no restrictions in the
article of agreement which the
board has with the fourth to de-
bar any such proceeding. Don't
all apply for schools in McCon-
nellsburg next year.
The term was fixed at eight
months, and schools will open
Monday September 1. The
schools to which each was assign
ed, the name of teacher, and sal
ary, is as follows : Primary, Miss
