TEACHERS DEMANDS REGARDED 'HOLD-UP' School Committee to Meet for
 Action This Evening
 MEANS $4,000 TAX INCREASE
No Opinion Rendered Yet As Prob able Settlement of Wage Increase, Although Compromise Probably Will Be Suggested

There will be d meeting of the school committee this evening to act on the petition of the instructors in the local schools for an increase in salary over amounts specified in the contracts for the year.
 The. petition was presented to the school board a few days ago and de mands an increase of $200 per year for each teacher. Every teacher in the school signed the petition There are twenty instructors and if the de- mand is granted it will result in an increase of $4,000 in the years tax budget The reason given for the presentation of the petition is the rapid increase in the cost of living.
 Orrin l., Judd, principal of the Grammar school, is not included in Mr. Judd did not ask for an increase in salary. Frank G. Osborne, a, mem Der of the school committee, stated this morning that MT. Judd was op- posed to the circulation of such petition and attemptedd to dissuade the teachers from their course of action, but without effect.
 The estimate of school expenses,
 
 ready in the hands of the assessors and they have compiled the grand list in accordance with the original budget The decision on the. ques- tion of teachers salaries will have a pronounced effect on the grand list and probably on the tax rate for the ensuing year.
 If the school board decides this evening to give the petition further consideration it will probably be taken up at a special town meeting within few weeks Such a meeting must be held before March as the annual adjourned town meeting will be held in that month to lay the tax rate for 1920.
 In the event that the increase is granted the effect of the building boom in lowering the tax rate will be neutralized. Many prominent men, including town officials, expected the industrial expansion now taking place in Plainville would have the effect of lowering the rate by adding con- siderable sum to the grand list No opinions could be secured on the sub ject this morning.
 Frank G. Osborne, in speaking of the demands of the teachers this morning, seemed to consider them unreasonable. He stated that the teachers were approached before the beginning of the school year and re- qHested. to name figures for their sal ary contracts for t919-20 Tn every case, he said, the teacher named the desired amount of her salary and no opposition was offered by the school board. The contracts were signed in the usual order before the opuin ing of school. "1t seems rather like a hofd-up,' MT. Osborne said, for the teachers to present such demands at this time" The school board is likely To consider the action as a decided breach of good faith and a stormy meeting is likely to be the result of the demands of the. in StructOrs

both sides selected a prominent judge
to hold d court of arbitration.

four persons. This beef skinner ad-
mitted that he was being paid $4,000 a

ers, wanted more. All of which was
duly reported in the Omaha papers of
the time. Now I hear that the arbi-
traitor has allowed them all a consid-

assume that he honestly thought the

he swore, actual necessities"
Yet. even as l read his testimony

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not find
single trace of dandruff of falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after
few weeks use, Whel you see new
hair, fine and downy at first-yes-
but really new hair-groWing all
over the scalp.
A little Danderine INN e6iately
doubles the beauty of YOUR hair. No
difference how dull faded brittle
and scraggy, just moisten cloth
with Danderine and carefully draw
it through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time, The effect is amaz
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance of
abundance; an incompatible lustre,
softness and luxuriance.
! Get a small bottle of knowlton's
| Danderine for a few cents at any
drug store or toilet counter, and prove
| that your hair is as pretty and soft
as any-that it has been neglected
| or injured by careless trea tment-

tiful hair and lots of it if you will
