MORE MONEY FOR TEACHERS.

From the Indianapolis star.
Salary increases aggregating approx
mately $4,000 for teachers Of the Indian
apolis public schools are recommended
by Supt Calvin " Kendall in a report
made last night to the board Of school
commissioners. This report was prepared
at the request OF the board. and in It re-
quirements Of school buildings in the fu-
ture were discussed also. The board de-
ferred action on the report.
Mr. Kendall gave II as his opinion that
the increases he advised are needed TO
maintain the high standard OF efficiency
desired among the teachers, 10 Offset the
increasing high cost Of living. and to at
tract capable men and women away from
the ofttimes superior financial advan-
tages offered in the world OF business.
In another report Mr.. Kendall discussed
ventilating and heating systems in use
in the Chicago schools. He recently
paid a visit 10 the institutions OF learn
ing Of the Windy City in company with
D. L. Waters, heating ana venuIahng
engineer. He described as ideal a COM
bination assembly room and gymnasium
that has been adopted, and discussed at
some length other features OF the Chi
cago buildings. The temperature is kept
automatically ar 20 degrees. and 1850
cubic feet Of air per hour is allowed
for each pupil. The ventilation system is
Of the fan type and has been found very
successful, the superintendent said.
