FRANh T.. DANIEL,
New principal of Mckinley School.
Several hundred public school teachers
are still wondering where they will be
teaching the 18th of this month, when
the public schools open, for despite the
fact that the board of education held a
meeting yesterday afternoon the big
scheme of Organization Is still to be
completed.
School teachers have looked forward
to the first fall meeting of boards of
education for years, and generally learn
their fate for the coming year The num-
Der of changes in the schools announced
yesterday is less than those ordinarily
announced at regular meeting in the
school year. when every one has been
placed.
Normal School girls who are anxious
for places look on the first meeting as
their own special property by right Of
long precedence. but this year the girls
of Normal School No. 1, at least, don't
care what happens because every one
of that big class of more than eighty has
a place. True it is that one girl has a
place by fireside, she having succumbed
to Cupid during the summer, but all the
others have teaching positions either in
Washington or in Virginia
However, the big scheme OF organiza-
ton will be arranged in plenty Of time.
The business which has kept the school
heads busy these last few days has been
in connection with the estimates for the
coming fiscal year.

w. D. Hoover suggested at the meeting
