An adjourned session OF the board

Every member of the board was
present and the matter Of the cleo
ton of teachers was taken up but
deferred until the adjourned meet

"a slight measure looked into and
until the evening OF Thursday the
matter will be before the board
members. This action legally follows
the election of superintendent,
which was done Monday by the
county commissioners in the choice
of Superintendent Frank.
Many applications were received
for the vacant positions in the
! schools and this year a number of
new teachers will be elected with
the assistants promoted to regular
work. Some of the board members
had heard of reports to the effect
that c. NJ. Beckett of the CONNER
cial department OF the High school
had accepted a position at Mans
field. Mr.. Beckett has not yet re-
signed his position here, neither
has he applied for it although on

Owing TO the lateness of the sea-
son no change in the readers and

A meeting was called for this pur-
pose a shont time since but as the
time before the opening OF school
next Monday is very short the local
dealers would have been unable to
secure their supply. The various
texts of this lime will be considered
by the teachers and an investigation
will be made in the next year so
that a change can be made at that
time.
The board was of the opinion that
at least $500 sholld be expended for
supplemental reading in the schools
during the next year. However, the
needs win be looked into and al
at later date the committee will see
that the schools are supplied WI"
the reading. 1t is the aim of the
board to gain good supply thls
year so that a lesser amount will
be thus disposed fof.
