certificates shall be requested to raise
them to a higher standard at the ear
liest possible moment
,. Salaries of teachers holding sec
ond grade certificates shall not be fur
Their increased until first or higher
grade certificates are secured.
s. In selecting teachers, graduates
of the Ell PasO high school who have
made preparation for teaching by pur
suing normal or college courses, shall
be given preference over outsiders,
other things being equal.
4 Graduates of the Ell Paso high
school without experience. who have
taken regular work in the university
creditably. including work in the school
Of education, securing thereby a first
grade certificate, shall have the same
standing as normal graduate with
out experience.
5. Any student of the Fl Paso high
school or any other recognized high
school failing to complete a high
school course, who attends a state
normal school thereby securing
diploma, and then applies for a posi-
'tion in the Ell Paso public schools, shall
be required to serve two years as
substitute before being employed as a
regular teacher.

Secretary Harper then read the re-
port on the manual training work as
follows:
In raerard tO the mammal training de-
partment. the internal committee recon-
mends as follows:
THAT the following resolution be
adopted in view of the fact that in
other departments OF school work GER
tain standards of certification are re-
quired. and that high standards are as
necessary in manual training as in 9TH
er branches.

city of Ell Paso, that no person
shall be employed as instructor
in the manual training department Of
the Ell Paso public schools who does
not hold a degree or diploma from some
reputable school, college or university,

lent of at least two years specializa-
ton in the subject to be taught, and to
be preceded by a full high school course

any person now in the department; also
that no raise of salary shall be con-
sidered for any teacher in the manual

efficiency falls below a grade of so per-
cent"

Worsham then said: One teacher has
been eliminated in the manual training
department and his salary divided
among the other two which gives them
an increase.

Of our best teachers. Mr.. Arlit has left

ing: II would Ike to explein, Mr.. Win
ter, that I have gone into this matter
thoroughly and the amount paid for

than last year, on account of the
resignation Of one of the teachers"
Winter then asked: Can three men
do the work as well this year as four
did it last year? IF so there was one
man not needed last year"
Worsham-"Last year they were in
Sailing the department"
Winter-"Then I withdraw my mo-
ton"
