however, that there were new rules
regarding the payment of the in
structors and new forms of check
books would have to be used. This
information came from the state Of
flee, which was informer that there
were none of the new-fangled books
on hand, and this will be necessary
in order that the teachers not be dis
appointed. 1t is probable the checks
will be sent in due time. However,
more time will be required to fill them
out.
