The Tribune is pleased to note he made
most favorable impression with all.
He is younger brother Of Lawyer

mended by the best-known educators of

In reply to several inquiries received
by The Tribune concerning the new law
minimizing the salaries Of teachers of
the second grade, we quote that por-
ton of the law making such provision,
though it should be borne in mind that
it does not go into effect till July 1st of
this year. We quote: "No teacher
holding a certificate of lower grade
shall receive a salary equal to or in ex-
cess of that paid to teacher holding
certificate Of higher grade in the same
district; provided further that no teach
er holding a second grade certificate
shall receive less than forty-five dollars
per month on and after the passage
and taking effect of this act. And
nothing in this section shall be con-
strued to mean that teachers holding
the same grade Of certificate must nee
essarily receive the same wages.

not sitting in judgment. and therefore
will only venture the prediction anc
hope that the matter will be adjudica-
ted to the satisfaction, as well as just
ice, of all concerned.
