The Board of Education met in reg
u1ar session at the city hall on Tres
day evening and it was especially in
teresting on account of the retire
ment of number of the best known
teachers Of the schools. Announce
ment had been madeGof the resigna-
tion Of DonaldassA. Frank and when
the meeting assembled Tuesday night
it was announced that Miss Seba
of the English department of the Ke-
nosha High school, has resigned her
position in order to accept a similar
position at the West Side High school
in Milwaukee. Miss Moulton had
been very popular with the students
of the Kenosha school and her resig-
nation came like abbott from clear
sky. She had signed contract for
the new year and it was expected
that she would remain in charge of
the department.. However the Board
refused to stand in her way of getting
better salary and a better position
and her resignation was. accepted.
Miss Maude Yule, of Kenosha, was
elected to fill the position at salary
Of $3.50 year. The vacancy left by
the resignation of Mr.. Frank was
filled by the election of Miss Nina E.
Weston, of Cleveland, Ohio, who will
receive a salary of $3.50. Miss Weston
is Chicago girl and was graduated
from the University of Chicago in
1901. Since sthat time she has been
employed in the High school at Cleve-
land, Ohio, and.she comes to.Kenosha
with the, best of recommendations
E. O. Heuse, who had been elected
to fill the' position Of teacher aof
science, made vacant by the resigna-
ton of Miss S. Edith Brown at the
close of the last school year, resigned
his position last night and S.. w,
Ward, of North Manchester, Indiana,
was elected to the position at a salary
of 81, 050.a year, Mr.. Ward is grad
uate of the Indiana State Normal and
the State sUniversity of Indiana.

been thegprincipal Of the schools at

In order to fill in the different build
ings the committee on teachers recon-.
mended with the approval of the
Board that Edward F. Randall be
made principal of the new Balm school
at salary of 1000 year. Miss
Frances Kaltenbach was.made princi-
pal of the:Weiskopf school at salary
of $3.50 and for vacancies now exist
ing the Board employed Miss Editha
Gorske, MisstrkLulu Sutton, Miss
Blanche Adamson, sMiss Elizabeth
Clark and Miss BellelHunt as grade
teachers. EThey will be assigned to
the differents.schools by the superin-
tendent. The salaries of Miss Agnes
O'Hare and MRS. ]. A. Williams we're
raised in keeping with the salary
schedules.
The work of selecting new teachers
was the principal business before the
Board but one other i'm portant matter
was taken upland that was the ques-
ton of the admission ..ofshigh school
fraternities and sororities and this
was referred to the committee on rules.
A resolution awas presented demand
ing that such societies only be ad-
mitted when they lwere under the
direct supervision of the superinten-
dent and.when member of the high
school faculty was member of the
sorority or fraternity. 1t is probable
that the Rules Committee will report
on the matter at the next meeting of
the Board. There is now one sorority
in the school and it will fall under any
ru1ing.made.
The Board spent some time discus
sing the matter of boundary lines but
nothing:was done in this matter and
it will Ebe left to the superintendent
for decision.
