DISCUSS NEW YEARS WORK.
Industrial Board of Education Meets
at City Hall on Monday Evening.

The members Of the industrial board
of education held session at the Of
flee of the superintendent at the city
hall on Monday evening and discussed
plans for work during the coming
school year. No special business came
before the board 1t is the plan to
open central Offices of the schools at
the Deming school and the Office in
the city hall will be turned over for
other uses of the city. The members
of the board decided that no new
teachers for the school should be en-
ployed until the D. E. Seull, the new
superintendent, was on the ground and
could have part in their selection.
Need of more room for the school was
seen, but no action was taken to secure
further buildings and the continuation
schools will probably be forced to
struggle along with the present equip
ment for another year.
