NO SALARY RAISE
FOR SCHOOL TEACHERS
Until next YEAR

There will be no salary raise for
teachers in the city schools until the
advent of the new school year. This
was decided upon at the regular
meeting of the board of education
held Wednesday evening, which was
presided over by Hon W. F. V0ss
The teachers in the high school had
petitioned for raise in salary and
the committee on teachers and in
struction to whom it was referred
brought in report:
Your committee held a Joint meet
ing with the finance committee of
this board as it is primarily a finan-
cial one. The budget for the schools
covers no funds in our hands apple
able for increasing the salaries of the
teachers during the school year for
which they have contracted to serve
at the time of their appointment Lack
of funds and the ultimatum by the
city council that the board had best
not exceed the appropriation at its
disposal are factors. The city attorn-
ey's opinion is also bar to an in
crease on account of lack of funds.
However much the members of
your committee individually feel that
an increase in salaries of not only the
teachers of the high school, but also
of the grade teachers would, under
present conditions be not amiss, your
committee for reasons above set forth
is constrained to recommend that the
request of the petitioners be laid over
until appointments are made for the
new school year of 1888.
o. C. Wertheimer,
w. F. Voss.
Edwin w. Reichardt
A A. Frattinger.
Ed. Sipp.
The report was adopted.
President Voss addressed the meet
ing and stated that while he thought
the salaries as a whole were not high
tied and it was impossible to raise
the salaries until the funds were pro-
vided by the city council budget.
In response Miss Laurinda Albers,
one of the three teachers present, in
speaking for their committee thanked
the members of the board for the con-
sideration given their request and
felt no i'll will in the matter
Superintendent T. J. Berto reported
that he considered the bill for shovel
ing snow at the old high school alto
gether too high for the work, and a
committee of the hoard will look after
the matter in the future

question of what color the walls of
living rooms should be tinted The

white walls reflect by far the most

other colors in order of their light
