TEACHERS WILL
RECEIVE SALARY
SAYS THE MAYOR
ALL WARRANTS WILL BE PAID
AFTER THE MEETING OF CITY
BOARD FRIDAY NIGHT.
CITY TO BORROW the MONEY
All Parties Having Accounts Against
City of Columbia Are Also Requested
BY Mayor Cherry to File Them
for Payment.

I'VE are going to pay the teachers
of the city schools and the high school
Saturday" said Mayor w. o. Cherry
TO representative of The Herald, fol-
lowing the publication of the report of
the meeting of the city board OF edu-
cation, in which attention was called
to the fact that teachers in these
schools have not been paid either De-
cember or January salaries, and have
been compelled to borrow money from
the banks to meet current expenses.
Continuing, Mayor Cherry said, mot
only are we going to pay the teachers
but we are going to pay the accounts
which concerns about town hold
against the city. We intend to borrow
$4,000 for this purpose, and | wish
you would call attention to the fact
that the city is going to do this so
the merchants and all other persons
who have accounts against the city
will send them to the city hall so that
they may be paid"
The mayor said the reason the sal
aries for January have not been paid
Is because they are never paid until
after the first meeting night of the
board Of mayor and aldermen in the
month of February. He said that it
had been the purpose of the board to
pay the December salaries of the
teachers, but when the last meeting
of the board was called, nothing was
said about the payment OF salaries,
and in the words Of Mayor Cherry
I'VE said something about paying the
teachers salaries at that time, but
the city recorder told us that we could
not pay them because we had not in
cluded ii in the call. but we sure are
going to get that behind US at the
meeting tomorrow night"

ENROLMENT IS
MUCH INCREASED
In. CITY SCHOOLS
MORE THAN THOUSAND STU
DENTS IN HIGH AND ANDREWS
SCHOOLS OF CITY.
INCREASED POPULATION SHOWN
Some Interesting Facts Concerning
Schools of City Have Been Secured
BY staff of School Paper "signal"
Which Comes OFF press Today.

If the enrolment of the city schools
can be taken as an index, the white
population of Columbia in the 1920
census will show considerable in.
crease over the number of inhabitants
within the corporate limits at the time
the 1910 census was taken. Enrolled
in the Andrews school, and in Cen
trail High there are, according to fig
ures compiled 1,05S students, which is
a considerable increase over the at.
tendance for the term of 191S.19.
Some most interesting facts con-
cerning the schools of the city have
been gathered by the enterprising
staff of the Signal which comes off
press today.
Under the appropriate head Did
You Know?" these questions are
asked:
That the enrolment at the Andrews
building for this term is 487?
That the enrolment at the High
School building is 571, that the total
enrolment for these two buildings is
LOSS"
That about 23S High School pupils
live out of the city limits?
That forty-two Of these live near
enough to town to walk from home?
That So of them board in town?
That thirty-five come to school on
the train?
That thirty-six come to school in
buggies?
That twenty-six come in automo-
biles?
That every district in the county is
represented in our ranks?
That II pupils live out of the coun-
ty; four in Hickman county, three in
Marshall, one in Sumner, one in Giles,
one in Georgia, and one in Lawrence
ihdt DCHiutS uho superintendent
there are twenty,nine teachers in the
faculty?
That eleven Of these teachers are at
the AndFews building?
That sixteen teach in the High
School?
That there are two special teachers
in the High School, music and express
sion, paid by their pupils?
That the average of pupils to teach
er in the High School is % 5-S.
That the City Schools and Central
High are the biggest asset the city of
Columbia has?
These figures afford much food for
thought From them the taxpayer has
an opportunity TO figure just how he is
spending his money, and how much
the education of each child in the
city is costing. He also is forcibly
reminded of the fact that more and
more the parents of the county who
have children to educate are taking
advantages offered by the splendid
schools of Columbia.

SENSATIONAL DECLINE .
SToPPAGE OF AMERICAN COTTON
IMPORTS VIEWED WITH
III, GRAVE CONCERN.
HOPE TO RELIEVE SITUATION
English Press Says That No Further
Imports Shroud Be Made Until the
Value Of the Pound Sterling Be
comes Nearer Normal.
(By United press.)

LONDON, Feb. 5"The stoppage
OF cotton imports is one of the first
and most telling effects of the ex.
change situation" between Great Brit
ain and the United States, the London
Star declared today While no Off
cial ban has been placed upon cotton
imports from America, newspapers
pointed out that the British manufac-
turers can improve their situation no
bly, by refusing to buy until the value
OF the English pound becomes more
nearly normal in New York.
As the result OF yesterdays sensa-
tional slump in value : of the pound
sterling in New York, the movement
TO refrain from buying American
goods today reached such proportions
as to cause grave concern among rep
resentatives of American business
houses here.
British financial authorities pointed
out that the government has as its
only object, the relieving Of the ster-
ling exchange situation.
