Will Elect Teachers March 26.
It was decided to hold an adjourn
ed meeting on March &c, when the
election of teachers for next year
will take place, and in the meantime
application blanks will be printed
and sent to the present teachers, to
be returned by March "a. If these
teachers say they desire reelection,
they are to name the minimum sal
airy demanded, and other conditions,
and then, if elected on those condi-
tions they are to be held tightly
bound by contract. Breaking the
contract carries penalty of for
| fixture of the state certificate re-
quired for teaching. The board is
tired of reelecting teachers, only to
have them surrender their positions
at the last moment, when it is diff
/ ficult to get good teachers.
Thanks From Mr.. Sperry.
In accepting his reelection, Super
intendent Sperry said to the board
81 wish to convey to the board my
thanks for the evidence of their con-
fdence in me, as shown by the cleo
ton at the last meeting. | hope to
merit that confidence this coming

the table, although Mr.. Regain
thought that such system ought
to be introduced.
The secretary suggested that con-
siderable labor could be saved by
having the fiscal year close July
81, as with other schools, instead
of August 81, as here, for the vari-
Gus reports called for are required
for the year ending July 81, which
necessitates making full reports then
and again month later. If the fiscal
year ended July 81, the reports
could be audited and approved by
the retiring board, which had not
always been the case. 1t was decid-
ed to look the matter up, and if
there is nothing in the school char
ter to prevent it, the change may
be made.
The usual bills were allowed, after
which the board adjourned. Vice
President Davies presided during the
meeting in the absence of President
! Hughes.
