stantIy in demand and, with present
contemplated building operations COM
pleted, not less than 10 teachers will
be needed. With our present pro rata
and salary list, it is going to be i'm
! possible to supply them and the Ques-
ton suggests itself-How shall we ar
range to get more teachers?
That the present force is exceedingly
poorly paid is admitted without argu-
ment. That as a whole they are doing
their work willingly and well, under
the meagre salaries, is cheerfully
granted. And yet the fact stares us
in the face that we need more teach
ers as well as better ones and that
there are no funds with which to pay
them under the present arrangements.
AS the salaries paid the teachers in
the summer vacation are variable,
owing to their length Of service, there
is always something saved from the
monthly pro rata and this balance to-
gether with the balances of the one
or two months of the school year
amounts to $4,769.3S which can be ap-
piled at the beginning of the next
school year for salaries Of teachers.
1t does not seem wise to draw on this
balance until we see exactly how we
are coming out.
MAKE TEACHERS SWEEP.
The only solution that presents it
self is to reduce or wholly cut off the
janitors in the various schools in the
district of Honolulu. This unques-
tionably means an added burden on
the teachers and it may be an open
question whether it Is a wise method.
We are at the present time employ
ing:
z Janitors, Kaahumanu School. :. .$55. 90
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1906-02-24

/ making a total of 1872 so per month for
| janitors for ten of the schools in the
| district of Honolulu or a total for the
| biennial period $S940 for these ten Ho-
nclulu schools while outside of Homo
| lulu, SO far as L know, there is but
one janitor employed, namely at Hilo,
who has charge of four different school
buildings at a salary of $50 per month.
1t has been argued that the condi-
lions of the buildings and the char
acter of the students differ from the
outlying districts. That if this extra
work be imposed upon the children,
their parents will ask for their release
from school or transfer to different
schools where they will not be obliged
to work. The argument has also been
advanced that the teachers are so
poorly paid now that we have no
moral right to ask more of them.
Granting that this last argument has
some force, the fact remains that the
Honolulu teachers as a whole are bet
ter paid than those in the outlying
districts and this work has been ex-
pected of them whereas it has not been
required of those in Honolulu.
The matter practically resolves it
self into the question of teachers or
janitors. We need more teachers. We
have not money to pay for them I'M
less we reduce or dispense with the
janitor service.
TEACHERS FEEL 1T.
There is among some, and I fear
among many, of the teachers a feel
ing that if the department can furnish
material for manual training work
school supplies, flags, ETC., that that
money might be used to pay the teach
ers better salaries They do not re-
alize the fact that the amounts ex-
pended for these various things are
under specific appropriations by the
Legislature, and that the department
has not the power to divert money
from one appropriation to another.
The only one from which we can
pay teachers, janitors. etc, is the ap-
preparation Payroll, Support of
Schools and this, as I have shown in
the figures above, is drawn almost to,
and in one case over, it's monthly pro
rata
SALARIES TOO SMALL.
In support of the assertion that sail
aries are all too small. 1 beg TO sub
nit the following table of teachers
