NEW SALARY SCHEDULE
IS ADOPTED BY BOARD
Principals Salaries For Outside Schools Reduced Under
New Schedule Annual Increase Only $645 On Payroll
Exclusive of JanitOrs and Teachers For New School
New Requirements Reward For Service

After threshing the matter out at
four long drawn.out special meetings,
the Salem school board finally "tooll
the bit in its teeth" and adopted a
schedule of salaries for the teachers Of
the public schools, which will take eff.
feet at the beginning of the fall term
of school, at last nights meeting. In
the main there are no substantial in.
creases, except in cases of experienced
teachers, who have been drawing salar.
les below the minimum of the new
schedule, and there are no decreases
in salaries.
All told, the new schedule will
cost the district approximately $645
more on the annual payroll than under
the present system, or rather, lack of
system, of salaries, and it does not
include the salaries of janitors, which
are left the same, or $50 per month
for schools of eight rooms, with an al
lowance Of $3.50 extra per room in ex
cess of eight, This excess allowance
will effect the ianitor of the East
school only, whose salary under tn,
new schedule will be $40 per month
Neither does it include salaries Of
teachers for the new grade South Salen
school.
The schedule for principals was fixeo
at $95, 800 and $l05, for first, secon'
and third years, respectively, in spit
