The minimum salary or $40 is paid to
teachers who have had no previous ex-
perience in graded schools; and this IS
advanced IS per month with each year
of service until the maximum salary of
$50 per month, or $40 per year is reach
ed The last advance in teachers sal
aries was made in 1899, when the maxi
mum was increased from $55 to $50 per
month
It is agreed by the committee that the
salaries paid to competent teachers Tor
acceptable service are too low and chat
they ought to be increased both as Il
matter of justice to the teachers and
as necessary means of Sc
curing and retaining teachers Of
the highest efficiency. Fur
thermore the committee believes that
public sentiment is strongly in favor of
an advance in teachers wages and that
the people viii gladly support the board
of education in its efforts in this direc-
ton.
In order to determine the possibility
