Freyler Procures
 Restaurant License

The county commissioners have granted to F. J. Freyler, a first class restaurant privilege license, the only one of it's kind in this city, with the exception of that of The Stratfeld. The former cabaret establishment closed its doors when the order to eliminate all forms of amusements in restaurants selling liquor was made by the police commissioners.
 Other cabarets which kept their doors open but had no means of serv- ing food to its patrons were later or dered to close. The establishment of Freyler has every modern facility for conducting a high class restaurant and with some renovations the busi- ness probably will be opened in a week.

TEACHERS GET LONG, AWAITED
 WAGE CHECKS
Supt. Slawson Writes Letter to Principals to Explain
 Situation.

Bridgeport's teachers received their pay, today, in the sixth weel since the last payment. It came al balm for the landlords, boarding mis tresses. etc., who had been wailins that they were hutt in their pocket books. The teachers were last pait April, 4.
 The following letter, sent to th' principals by Supt. s. J. Slawson may serve to clear up the matter: Dear Principal:-
 There seems to be a misunder- standing with reference to the Easter recess and the making out of the pay roll for the past month.
 l. Easter vacation has never been counted as part of the number of days or weeks that school was in session for the year.
 2. Teachers have never received pay for the time of the East CT recess.
 {. This year the Easter. recess is shorter than any other year. 4. Your pay-statement should be made out for all regularly appointed teachers and per- manent substitutes, who be- gan work on September 25, for four weeks time, less whatever days were lost on account of sickness, etc. This means that the regular teacher and permanent sub- stitute are giving two days service toward the two weeks that they were paid for at the, beginning of the year.
 6. All regularly appointed teach CTS who began servic- since September 25, will be paid for 22 days if they have taught that number of days. c. All other substitute teachers will be paid for 22 days if they have taught thas mum Der of days in the month. 7. The last pay roll will be for four weeks ending June 29, and should be in this office on Monday, June 25. Respectfully yours. 'H s. J. SLAWSON,
 superintendent.
