DOUGLAS SCHOOL TO BE
 DEDICATED WITH CERE-
 MONY COUNCIL DECIDES

Douglas City Council last night spent about two and one-half full hours of time considering the vari- ous matters of business accumulated since the last meeting of two weeks ago.
 Of principal interest among com munications presented to the Coun- cil was one from the Douglas School Board with the budget prepared for the 1938-39 school term.
 An important item connected with the budget is that an additional teacher for the grades is planned to add something like $1 400 to the estimated expense. On some of the other items such as heating, light ing and miscellaneous, the estimate is more or less like a leap in the dark as H. L. Cochrane, Clerk of the Board, put it since there are no previous years of experience with the building to guide them.
 By unanimous vote the city fathers approved the expenditures as budgeted in the report.
 School Budget
 A total estimated expense of $16,- ITO is shown in the following report which compares with the total for the present 1937-38 term of $13,780.
 City's portion of the expense next year will be 20 percent of $14,240, which is refundable, or $2,848 plus $1,930 that is not refundable, mak- ing the total cost to the city of $4,773 as compared to $3,916. GENERAL CONTROL
