Nutley school teachers and school jani-
tors are happy today over the prospect of
increased salaries, due to the probability
that the town will receive $1,000 from the
State railroad tax, under a recent decision
of the courts. At the same time some of
the women teachers are said to be a little
worked up over the proposition of Super
~intendent A. b. Meredith to introduce men
teachers in certain grades of the High
School, to the exclusion of women, on the
ground that boys of 16 years or thereabouts
are Influenced toward manliness better by
men than by women.
The monthly report of the superintendent
to the Nutley Board of Education last
night touched upon the two matters as fol-
lows:
II would respectfully call your attention
to the fact that there is a strong prob
ability that the railroad tax, amounting to
about $4,000 for this district, will be avail
able, and under the law this money is to
be used for teachers and %janitors' salaries,
thereby making it possible for a district
TO pay larger salaries and (at the same
time reduce the local district tax. 1t is
this fact which ~justlfies the recommends
ton which | ask you to consider.
