to apply to teachers agencies. for
teachers, and whereas it is we'll

the teachers of this school are en-
ployed through agencies than other
schools, yet it is desired by the board

this practice, and that it use the
proper means to discourage the pay
ment of fees to teachers agencies by
the teachers, and the following res
olution was introduced by Mitchell
