SUPT. WRIGHT
IS REELECTED
School Board is Well Salts
fled With Years
Work
MOST TEACHERS REMAIN

p. A. Wrightshas accepted the sup
erintendency Of the Lynden schools
for another year at an increase IN
salary of $2OO-making the new
salary 800 a month for II months.
The advance was volunteered to him
by the school board, the members Of
which ale we'll pleased with the ad-
vance made during the past year.
All of the teachers were reelected
most of them at slight advance in
salary. Some of them have, or will
hand in their designations, having
desided to go elsewhere.
We believe the action of the board
in advancing Mr.. Wright's salary sc
materially was honestly a surprise u
him, though possibly to few others
The schools lave never made SO mucl
progress as during the past year.
There is a stronger more earnest tone
to the work than ever before. An
advance in salary was the least tine
district could do to show it's appre-
citation. 80. 9
Don't think. that the Tribune gives
MIR. Wright all the credit. He has
been heartily supported by the school
board and patrons and he was par
ticullarly fortunate in the selection Of
teachers. From the high school in
structors down to the primary grades
his teachers have given him honest {
and earnest cooperation the sort OF
cooperation that spells progress. =,
Another action by the board that
will cause rejoicing, Il think was the
reelection of c. o. Nulder for three
days work a week in the manual
training department, at, a salary inat
will give him $1,000 year.
While 1t is not yet decided it is
probable that 3 music and art in
structor will be added to the staff
this year.It is also likely that a man
teacher will be secured for the
Eighth grade. Miss SoRelle who
has succeeded so exceptionally inNthe
Eighth grade work has decided. 10 7put
in next yearasin university work.
Mr.. Talbot, who has been science
teacher and musical Instructor in the
hioh school has resigned and is COL
sidering places in two or three larger
towns and cities. His place has not
of course, been filled here, yet.
For the most part, the old corps
of teachers Will remain in! Eynden
schools and in the same work as
now.

COFFIN NAILS
ARE BARRED
Supt. Wright Shuts Down on
Tobacco
USERS CANNOT GRADUATE
No Smoking Even lat the
Athletic Events and
Board Agrees.

y No Lynden High School diploma
will tie given to any student who
smokes.
Smoking at any school event, athle.
tic or otherwise will hereafter be con-
sidered a just cause for suspension.
Superintendent Wright has Ohg
considered making these rules, though
tie Tribune is glad to say there mas
been little urgent need for them,
he having induced most of his boys
who smoked to give UP the nabit, at
least until after years of manhood.
The immediate cause for making
them now was the spectacle last Sat
urdav of a high school BOY nmoking
at the school ball games. None Ot
the senior class in the high school
are affected by the ruling and It is
hoped any of the under students who
are now addicted to the habit will
break it off at once, in order not to
ruin their chances of graduation. AS
to the smoking when away from the
school grounds Mr.. Wright says:
ANY boy who smokes at school
event is not only linjuring his own
reputation; he is injuring the rep
Mation OF his school-my reputation,
his teachers reputation and his school
mates reputation We may not nave
tie authollty to put him off the
grounds, but We have the authority
to put ont of the schools anyone who
persists III harming himself and
others
"As for Issuing diplomas to smokers
| would decline to do that under any
circumstances because l could not
do It and remain true TO myself.
When we give diploma We certify
to whom it. is issued. Could | certify
to the good character OF Il cigarette
smoker?
mot the least but the most i'm !
portant work of the schools is build =
ing character and every diploma I
issued should be certificate of char
acter." ,
At meeting of the school board ,
Saturday night the members dn-
endorsed MIR. Wright's
new rules.

Fire Chief Makes Showing.

Tho report of Fire Chief Robinson, to
the Mayor and City Council for the
year ending March 81, 1911, is one of
II there il any one thing that should ap
peal to our citizens it is the work of the
volunteer fire department in all of its
four branches. If there is any ono thing
that should receive a liberal support on
the part of the city government the
property holders and the community
it is this department.
The report shows there were three
fire alarms and six private calls and
not one dollars worth of damage was
done by fire during the year. This is
an unparalleled record and it 10 ques-
tionable whether any city of the size
of Idaho Springs can duplicate it
With the exception of about $50 feet
of rubber hose on the Grass Valley hose
cart, all the hose and the cart are in
good condition. The fire alarm is re-
ported by the Chief as in perfect order
with the exception of the Indicator at
Hose House No 2, which has been re-
ported in bad condition for each sue
cessive year The principal improve
ment has been the building of the new
Hose House in Grass Valley. Among
suggestions made by the Chief are the
purchase Of 600 feet of cotton hose, q
stove for the tower and also the re-
duction of the numb.r OF firemen to 35
members. This latter would mean a
saving of $50 year to the city.

Editors VIII Con, To Us.

MIR. V l. Noxon received the follow
ing letter from the president of the
Colorado State Editorial association in
reference to the summer meeting:
You doubtless observed that the
very kind invitation of Idaho Springs
people to the Editorial association
which you gave us, was accepted, and
that plans are being made to hold the
midsummer meeting there on August
7th and Sth.
In this connection, of course, we
would ike to consult the pleasure of
your city. There is some talk Of secur-
ing special ira n, which, if possible,
would give little more time. Perhaps
the first afternoon and the morning of
the 8th might be devoted to business
and literary efforts and talking shop
with the evening of the 7th, and as
much time Tuesday as possible spent in
sightseeing or enjoying ourselves other
wise. What have you to suggest along
this line.
Mr., Leckenby, Mr. Barkhousen and
Mr.. Cain are a special committee to
get up contests In printing, ad. compo-
sition, eto along the line Of the Mon
trose meeting two years ago. And it
was suggested that yourself and Mr..
Adams, the secretary, get up the main
program, assisting me in that matter,
shall certainly appreciate your as
sistance, not only as to disposition of
time, but in other details and sugges-
ted a ticles We want to make thi
the biggest Summer meeting ever held
| in the association.

ENTERTAIN THE EDlTRs

Idaho Springs has been selected as
the place Of nesting of the mid sum
mer session Of the Colorado State
Editorial association. The meeting
will be held on Monday and Tuesday,
August 7th and Sth. There will be
in attendance at least 100 editors, with
their wives and members OF the family.
Idaho Springs is to be congratulated
upon being so signally honored. A
meeting OF the State Editorial asso-
ton is recognition that many towns
of the state are always deslrous of re-
ceiving, and for the mid summer meet,
ing Idaho Springs was shown prefer
ence over two other mining towns and
several cities in agricultural centers.
The advertising a section receives
where these meetings are held is OF
incalculable worth to community,
being very general and far reaching.
As the editors will have two days
for their meeting, it would be good
idea for'the Chamber of Commence OF
Gilpin county to make some arrange
ment for the scribes to spend por-
ton of the time visiting points OF in
terest in and around Central City.
GiIpin county virtually made Colo.
RADIO and visit to this historical point
would surely be pleasing to the news
papermen.
Perhaps by the time of meeting the
connecting raise from the Newhouse
tunnel to the Gunnell workings will
be in shape that trip through the
tunnel eau be given the editors; then
hoisting them to the surface through
the Gunnell shaft. Or another trip
that could be considered is drive up
Virginia canon to Russell Gulch
where tram cars could be boarded and
a ride taken over one of the most
novel railway lines 10 the world
Either one OF the trips suggested
would be a wonderful experience fol
the editors. They would never gel
through writing about tho unique at
fractions Of this district.
Our co. operation with Idaho Springs
in the entertainment of the news
papermen in August is a matter the
Observer would like the Gilpin County
Chamber of Commerce to take action
upon. It will mean q great deal tc
both counties to acquaint the news
papers Of tho state with our wonder
full gold mines, the millions OF dollars
this great district has produced, and
the possibility of millions upon
millions yet being extracted tro"
this rich territory.-Glpin Observer
