TEACHERS NOT Benefited
SCHOOL WAGE LAW NOT EFF.
FEcTiVE TILL NEXT YEAR.
Summer School Attendance This
Year Will Not Aid In the
Increase of Wages.

Des MOines, la, July Summer
school attendance by teachers this
year will not be of help to them in
raising their average grades as a ba
sis for salaries under the minimum
wage law. This will be disappoint
ing to many teachers.
Ii was provided in the law that
teachers who are in active work and
who attended at least six weeks OF
summer school may have three points
added to their certificate averages fol
the purpose of computing the mini
mum wage.
But the law goes into effect after
more than half OF the summer schools
for this year have been held. Its APP,
plication involves investigation and
recognition OF the summer schools
and the state board decided that this
can not be done this year; so the
consideration of this matter will be
deferred for a year.
The department of public instruc.
tion has just announced that the
board of examiners has decided that
the college authorities are hereafter
to be responsible for collection of eX.
animation fees from those who take
examination at the State Teachers
College
Deputy county superintendent
may be appointed and installed in
each and every county of the state af-
ter the Fourth of July. Attorney Gen.
eral Robbins has just rendered a de.
cision to the department to the effect
that where an appointment of a dep
uty is made and there is no provision
for his salary, it will be the duty of
the county auditor to convene the
county board OF education, or repre-
sentatives of each and every school
district, in convention for the purpose
OF fixing the salary of the deputy. In
counties that have deputies now and
the salary fixed this may not be
necessary.
