THE STATE

BARRE TEACHERS ASK MORE FAT
Declaring that they cannot live decently
On the present salaries. the grade teach
ers of the Barre public schools system
have petitioned the school commissioners
for a raising Of the minimum and maxi
mum of teachers salaries and the accom-
panying increase of their recommendations.
The petition is said to have been signed
by all except one of the grade teachers,
The minimum salary asked for is $500
year and the maximum $50 year, as
compared with $500 and s675 at The present
time. It is said that only about eight Of
the teachers are now getting the present
maximum salary. and some of them have
been teaching in the Barre schools for
between 2n and 70 years. A majority of
the grade teachers received an increase
of s25 this year over their salaries Of
last year and few of them received
a raise of SIS. These increases the teach
ers feel are too small to keep up with
the increasing cost of living and not
commensurate with the large gain In
school appropriation made possible by
the action of the voters last spring IN
voting a dollar on dollar of the grand
list for school purposes. and the levy
ing of such tax this year. Many OF
the teachers are boarding themse
az the present time in the hope Of cut
ting down expenses. while those who
elect to pay boarding mistresses are re-
quired to pay an average of S. a week
