The first people, so far as we know,
to navigate the deep waters were tho
Phoenicians. For a long time the Phoe-
nician ships were the only ones to be
seen on the Mediterranean or Atlantic.
At an age SO remote that 1t cannot be
determined with any degree of exacti-
tude the Phoenicians traded along the
Atlantic shore south with Africa and
north with the British isles. 1t IL
Just possible, of course, that other ma
lions may have n~avigated the deep
waters as early as the Phoenicians, but
to say that they did Is but to proceed
upon pure guesswork, A wonderful
people were the Phoenicians, who have

meeting of the old Board of Educa-
ton held In school No. 2 last even
ing.
Mr.. Oliver said: In view of the
fact that the contractors have not
completed their contract according to
specifications as yet, and owing to
the existing circumstances of the

that the old board could not finish
their work up and ave the new
board the trouble, | therefore nov
that the old Board leave the final
settlement with the contractors with
the new board. The motion was car
ried.

little controversy betweent the con-
tractor and architect as to certain
painting that had not as yet been
done. He also stated written ap-
proval of the building had not yet
ben received from the State lnspec-
tor although he had verbally express
sed his approval. He also said he
was satisfied the equalization pipe
that has been put In the boilers is
wrong.
Mr.. Davis called attention to the
resignation of one of the teachers,
and that under the rules a certain
allowance was due this teacher is
she had paid a substitute teacher for
three days. AS no formal bill for
the amount was presented the matter
was laid over.
Mayor Dey who was present was
requested by the president to make a
few remarks. He stated he had been
looking over the building and found
1t In an unfinished condition, but that
he had nothing else to say as the
board had held back what money
was due the contractors which was
his real purpose in attending the
meeting.
Mr.. Oliver said he wished to as
sumo all that it had never been the
intention of the board to make final
settlement with the contractors until
all the small items had been put in
proper condition.
