At the outset of the meeting, it was
Noted. upon motion of Leo Davis of
the board of school visitors that the
‘itemized estimate of each district be
road. He believed that the meeting
should not vote so many thousands of
dollars unless It wuashown what the
money was to go for,

The South Nor-walk Union School
district estimate was taken up first
and read by A. Blanchard Mr Davis
wanted to know how it was that the
salaries of twenty’three teachers had
been raised. ills recount showed the
number to be twenty-one. He admitted
the per capita cost of teaching in mi
district to be very low. Mr. Blnncharr
replied bycxplainlng the distr-‘itts
scheme of graduating salaries from
year to year. according to merit and
term of service.

Louis H. Beers said he would like
to ask Mr. Davis if he did not think
that every teacher in the district was
not worth all of the salary being paid.
Mr. Davis did not reply and Mr. Beers
continued that he knew of at least
one teacher the district is likely to
lose because of the salary question.

Mr, Davis said that he did not want
to be in a position as objecting to the
increase in salaries, but he wanted to
hear the details of the estimates.

Mr. Blanchard hoped the town would
Mon take the high school off the hands
of the district. it is proposed to have
a male high school teacher for the
district during the coming year. The
sum of $800 was provided for in the
estimate for his salary. ,

The increase in the .estimate from
this district is $1,671. The full sum
asked for was voted.

The amount asked for by each dis-
trict was granted. The Over [liver in-
crease is $148. lI‘lfty dollars is for in—
crease of the salary on It high school
teacher, while the remainder Is for
increase in incldentals.

The lncrehsc in the Center district
is 850, This Is for one teacher's sul-
Bry.

The Increase In the East Norwulk
district is $176. One hundred dollars
of this amount is for Principal (lum-
bart. whose salary is increased from
$1,400 to $1.500. Some of the teachers
are also given an increase,

Winnipnuk asked for 84 loss than
last year. Twenty-nine dollars more
was granted to the Broad River dis-
trict. and 815 extra was given to the
North Center district. The appropria—
tions In all of the other districts were
the same.

Upon motion of Arthur C. Wheeler
it was voted that the district commit-
tees hand in an itemized list at next
year’s meeting. This action has been
token before, but disregarded by some
of the districts.

The session was brought to a close

thl’ Hillside household. was discussed.
Mrs. Mend was asked to call the com-
pany to order to listen to the plan of

Mat-Nellie, reported a balance of near-
.y Stir» in the trensury. The report of
.lIc lielen Perry Osborn memorial
cholarshlp in Mnryviile College. was
host interesting. The 850 paid by the
association for this scholarship has
ouch applied to the use of a bright
girl in 'l‘eIuIesseo. enabling her to eII~
on a year of study as a junior in the
college. This young lady would have
been obliged to give up her hope of
fitting herself for a teacher, had it
not been for. the founding of this
Helen Perry Osborn scholarship by
the Hillside Alumnae Association. The
unsuciaiion voted to extend the aid of
tips scholarship to this mountain white
girl for another year, thus permitting
her to complete her course. in order
to provide for this cxpcnse a subscrlp
tion paper was passed. and the sum of
836 was pledged. it was voted, if no

to take the balance of 815 needed from
the money in the treasury.

Palmer memorial in Woliealey College
Mrs. Mead stated that the proceeds of
the entertainment given on Monday
evening were to be applied to that pur.
pose. So far as could be estimated, the
net profits would come to about “if.
it is hoped to raise the sum of 3100
for this memorial during the present
year.

evening at the meeting of the board
of school visitors held at the office of

finally voted to refer it to a committee
consisting of the acting schoolyisitom,
Arthur C. Wheeler. A. Blanchard and
Leo Davis. They will investigate con-

The session of the visitors was held
before the joint meeting of that body
with the selectlnen, when the estI~

during the coming year were made up.

in launching the subject before the
visitors' meeting, Leo Davis said he
