Report of School
District Clerk
Only $l.3O for Each pupil for Text
Books for Entire Year

e. NJ. Davis, secretary OF the
school board. has just given out his
report for the fiscal year and It con-
talns some Interesting Information in
regard to the schools of the city.
The entire number of pupils en-.
rolled during the year WAS four hun
dred aud ninety FIVE. and sixteen
teachers we're employed.
The salaries paid the teachers fot
the year amounted to sl2, 40.
aud the average salary paid to each
teacher Was ESQ. 81 per month.
The one thing In the report that
will be a surprise to the majority Of
leaders is the small amount paid out
for text looks. This Is especially so
as the board, at their last meeting.
considered a resolution to abolish the
free text books on the ground Of the
expense to the tax payers
The amount expended for text
books for all OF the pupils of all Of
the schools of the district for the en-.
tire year was only s67l.04 and thG
cost OF teNt books per pupil wae only
sl.29.
In the face of this showing Il
would seem that this city could hard
ly afford to 20 back to the old ex
pensive method of each pupil Furnish
Ing bis own books.
The report shows that the entir
cost Of maintaining each pupil Il
school for the year amonted to s25. Il
which will compare favorably will

CITY NEEDS MORE ROOM

ing Room

A regular meeting of the library
board was held Tuesday evening In
the library. The principal work at
this meetlng was the making out of a
list of about one numbered new books
which It was the Intention to oIder
at unoe. Although the list was pre-
pared and ready to be mailed, con-
IiugeD6ies have since arisen that has
maze the board think It advisable to
h9id up the order for time at least.
At the meeting of the city council
held the same evening plans for re-
modelling the city hall we're discuss
ed. These plans contemplated the
use of the room IN the second story
now occupied by the city library for
city council chamber, 1t being the
intention to arrange one Of the
rooms on the frst floor for The use Of
the library.
Il is farther planned to hx up a
basement underneath the building for
jail, putting the steel cages which
we're recently ordered into it and US
Ing It to confiDe drunks and other
city offenders IN.
The members Of the library board
eel that If the building is to be used
Is a jail It will be no it place for a
public library, especially If 1t is tC
be located 10 a room directly above
that In which are the cages aud that
II the council should determine tC
make the suggested change the onlJ
thing that would remain for th'
boprd to do would be to find som'
other location for the library.
The moving Of 1t would be some
what expensive aud the board Il
afraid that il the books are purchased
at this time and the library had to b
moved 1t would run the funds so Low
that there would not he sufficient lef
to keep up the librarians salary.
Still another thing shat is bother
ing the board ls that they have n
place 10 which to put the library II
case they do have to move.
Il has been suggested that perhap
one Of the rooms Ia the basement q
the brick school building on Thlr
str eet could be fixed up and used fu
the library. There are two objeC
tions to this plan however; frst It
not sucfilenily centrally located an
] second the room Itself Is not go ligl
Z as 1t should be and is badly vent
k lated.

board would like Is to purchase a Il

"watch in Hand. Teachers

"Naver Scharwenka complains that one
shortcoming of the music schools in this
country is the spirit of haste he found in
many of our educational institutions .
says Musical America. HE cites cases
where professors Sit watch in hand,
ready to terminate the lesson on the min
ute originally prescribed. Hundreds of
students who, have returned from study
in European schools are in a position to
furnish evidence that this spirit of haste
IN education is not confined to American
institutions of learning In fact, it would
be easy to pile UP testimony showing
that many European teachers are strong
ly guided by the watch in hand system
of giving lessons.
Mr.. Scharwenka comedies that there
are some good schools of music in the
United States. Close acquaintance with
the subject would undoubtedly convince
him that there are many very good
schools of music in this country and that
the atmosphere pervading them is con-
ducive to the highest degree of efficiency
