 Additional room provided through the Junior High school and additional seating capacity in other schools will more than provide for all pupils, 1t is said
 According to an announcement made public by Prof. Junius Jordan, superintendent of schools, eight new teachers, including supervisor ot music for all the schools, have been elected, and will begin work on the opening day. The new teachers were with two exceptions elected to fill vacansies. The exceptions are 8 supervisor of music and supervisor of physical culture for High school girls.
 The department of physical cul- ture is a new department in the High school, where, for the present, it will be confined. Only the girls of the school can take the work of this de- partment.

 Salaries of all teachers have been substantially increased, according to H. E. Strange, secretary of the school board.
