tendent, Mr. Rosecrans said if it was
up to them they would rather pay
substitute.
1T seemed as if they wanted to get
was one of the comments made In
proof of this attitude it was mentioned
that, although a six-room teachers cot
tage was provided at Puunene, the
couple had expressed a desire that the
assistant teachers should not board
with them, as Mrs. Rosecrans being a
teacher herself could not keep boarders.
It was agreed that the pay of Miss
Susie Kiakona, appointed as assistant
at Haiku be deducted from the salary
of Mrs. Rosecrans, who had declined
the work While in the pay of the Board.
Superintendent Rabbit, however, said
Mrs. Rosecrans should not appear in
the matter at all.
The salaries should stop from the
day they refused to work for the
Board" Mr. Wight remarked.
That is just the reason we had in
making the recommendation, Mr.. Far
rington said.
Certain salaries in allegiance as to
amount We're fixed by votes.
The Superintendent action was APP
proved in his writing to Cha',. H. Swain
for further particulars of his fifteen
years service on application for life
certificate.
A suggestion Of the superintendent
to remedy a difficulty about life certifi-
Gates was approved 1t was to notify
applicants that anyone can have life
certificate who holds a Normal School

Mr.. Rabbit reported on a visit paid
to kalihiwaena with Mr.. Harrington,
to look into the matter of an exchange
of land for school purposes. They were
given to understand that Mrs. Nakuina
had not obtained a grant of the land
wanted. Therefore they had applied to
the Superintendent of Public Works
for transfer of land to Land Com
missioner Pratt for their purposes.
That day the Governor had told him,
however. that Mrs. Nakuina probably
did own the land. Therefore he asked
for more time, which was granted.
Regarding nearly every piece of land
on which we wish to build under the
Loan Act the Superintendent COM
plained, there is some obstacle DR..
Bond was down from kohala on a case
of that kind. In Pauoa valley there
seemed to be a lack of land for the
building intended Tree different kona
lots are in a terrible Snarl, the Super
intendent concluded.
superintendent of Public Works Hol-
loway and Principal Richmond had in
formed him that a building for the
High School at dilO could not be erect
ed according to the plans for the SIS
900 available. They would therefore
have to try to adapt the plans to the
money. AS a matter of fact there
would not be much more than $4,000
for the structure itself. The question
was whether to ask them to cut the
plans, or to allow them something out
of the general fund.
Il should be in favor of putting up a
good building" Mr.. Wight observed.
Mr.. Rabbit said a building accord
ing to the plans would cost $23, 900 all
told.
Mr.. Harrington thought the loan APP
preparation was $4,000 and asked where
all the difference existed
Mr.. Rabbit said it would cost $500
to move the old building off, and the
filling in of a gulch would be $500 or
$500 more. That was approximately
$4,000 and then there was the architect
to pay.
1t was agreed to make an additional
appropriation if possible out of the
general fund
