The board Of trustees of Columbus

eligible 10 teach the work of these
classes:
4. Graduates of the washington nor
NAL schools of last June.
5. Graduates Of the Washington
normal schools Of the last five years.
8. Former teachers who have previ-
ously resigned from the school system,
and
z. Persons on eligible lists as a result
Of passing competitive examinations.
The term surplus" will be applied to
kindergarten teachers who preside over
classes of less than IS pupils. The Sem
ate and House conferees made 1t plain
during the hearings on the current
appropriation bill and in correspond
ence with DR.. Ballou during the Sum-
Fner that they believe as pupils to be
the proper size Of kindergarten class.
They made 1t clear also that they de-
sire the elimination Of all kindergarten
classes which do not reach that num-
Der.
In transferring these surplus kinder
garten teachers to elementary grade
work, q field In which they were made
legally eligible by a legislative provision
in the current appropriation bill, school
officials plan to exercise every precau-
ton to determine whether q kindergar-
ten teacher Is professionally eligible for
the new work. It Is likely that most of
these kindergarten teacher transfers
will be made to the second, third and
fourth grade work since the f1rst grade
teacher instructs largely in reading.

SYSTEM OF PLACING
TEACHERS DECIDED
EIigibIes on Leave to Get
Grade Vacancies Before
Undergraduates.

Eligible teachers now on leave of
absence will be appointed to vacancies
in the first four elementary school
grades before any of the Surplus
kindergarten teachers are transferred to
those classes from their present posi-
tions, under the procedure which the
school officials will adopt in effecting
the reorganization of the kinderrartens
as desired by Senate and House con-
ferees.
This was made known yesterday by
DR.. Frank w. Ballou, superintendent,
following q conference with Assistant
Corporation Counsel Francis H. Stephens
on the legality of filling positions from
the various eligible groups.
This decision ended the confusion and
anxiety which has centered about the
kindergarten reorganization and means
merely that the transfer of kindergarten
teachers to elementary grades will be
delayed while these surplus" kinder
gardeners will remain in their present
positions.
In general vacancies in the first,
second, third and fourth grades will be
filled in order from the following
groups:
1. Probationary teachers whose ap-
pointments are scheduled to be made
permanent;
2. Teachers eligible to be reinstated
from leave of absence:
8: "Surplus" kindergarten teachers

Hence it is likely that when kinder
garten teacher who lacks first grade
grade vacancy she will be placed in
charge OF another kindergarten presided
over by teacher possessing the neces-
sary preparation. The prepared teacher
then viii be assigned TO the grade
vacancy.

Gives Mrs. smith Credit.

Much credit for the transformation
of the barren, waSte-covered ground,
Uttered with trash and debris into the
present restful garden spot Is given by
President Marvin to Mrs. Smith, who
has been oficially appointed the garden
conSultant for the university's grounds.
Mrs. Smith had achieved such excellent
results in her work with the trash
strewn old yard back of the Home Eco
Monies Building of the university that
DR.. Marvin invited her to supervise and
plan the work for the new campus.
Mrs. Smith accepted the task with the
energy and enthusiasm of the born
gardener, who, after IS years Of expert
ence, has known the qualification which
comes from having seen many ugly and
barren yards transformed into floral
beauty spots. Mrs. Smith has had
much success with her own beautiful
garden at her home on Bradley lane,
Chevy Chase, Md, and as the leader

an accomplished fact and no longer a

Delightful Park Developed
Entirely hidden from the public, the
work on the university'S grounds has
been going on swiftly and silently, until
now the space enclosed by Corcoran
Hall on one side, Stockton Hall on the
other and numerous buildings Of the
university on the other two sides, has
developed into a delightful park. with
trees, gravel walks and comfortable
garden seats, effectively cut off from the
noise and traffic of the streets.
Last Spring the ground behind the
university's Office building was practi-
cally dump heap. An unsightly build
ing, used as a stable in the days of
horse-drawn vehicles, was purchased
by the university and after serving its
usefulness as q temporary laboratory,
was torn down. The ground was raked
over and the space planted to grass seed
and shrubs, which give promise Of

square, crossed by the gravelled walks
leading to the different buildings, upon
whose brick walls little tendrils of ivy
are already beginning to climb. Ivy has

with much foresight left little cut-out
