Arthur r. Spaid. County Superin-
tendent of New Castle Schools is de-
termined that the clerk of the school
districts shall collect the taxes and
keep the schools open. Attorney Gen
eral Richards has given him an opin-
ion that every clerk failing to collect
the taxes of his district is liable to a
fine of 800. Mr.. Spaid said that where
the $100 can be collected the school
teachers can be paid for keeping the
schools open for the full term. Ow-
ing to the tandard of teaching having
been raised and the many marriages,
teachers in New Castle County are
scarce and the district commissioners
must pay better salaries and have the
schools open for ten months if they ex
pect to keep good teachers.
