BOARD FIXES TUITION
NON-RES|DENTS S72.57
Books Audited Found Correct
Several Changes Of
Teachers Made

Pupils attending the Salem high
school living in districts outside of Sa.
lem will be asked TO pay $72.57 year
tuition, nalf of this amount to be paid
at the beginning of cash semester.
After discussing the school tuition
problem from various angles, the fol-
lowing, introduced by director II. o..
White, was passed: "Resolved, That
hign school from Polk county and
other counties operating under the old
county high school law be placed at
$72.57. This is with tine understand
ing that Polk county and other com
ties under the high school law pay $40
of this amount for each student and
that the student pay the balance, nalf
at the beginning of each semester" "
There is a difference as to what it
costs to educate a student. The board
of directors figured interest on invest
ment and depreciation, while the state
department of education contends that
the investment in grounds, buildings
and depreciation should not be consid-
cred in figuring the cost of doing busi-
ness. Chairman Lee reported that the
board S attorney Geo. G. Bingham was
working on the problem.

by the board to audit the books from
Sept. s, 1915, to July 10, 1916, reported
