F. HARRISON CO, LTD. § PUBLIC a SCHOOL IS THE LOWEST. The Figure is $112.750---Board of Education Accepts It--New Salary Figures Suggested For the Women Teachers. The Board of Education at its resday night, on the 2 of the property com- Z , of which Trustee Godwin is chairman, accepted the tender of Robert Wallace, of this city, for the erection of a brick school of ten rooms in Cataragui Ward at a cost of $112,750, the said tender being the | lowest. The tender, of course, is subject to the city council passing a by-law to raise the necessary funds. Application is to be made forth- with to the city council for the pass- age of a by-law proivding for the raising by debenture of the sum of $142,000 for the erection of the new | " i {ing requests from the teachers Yor | y school, this being the amount esti- mated for the total expenditure. The report of the property com- | mittee, which was adopted, read as follows: Property Committee's Report. "In accordance with the board's in- struction, your committee had the different properties included in the new sthool site. and the figures were $16,131. The | first options. secured by the board {amounted to $16,250. The city soli- citor's advice being to avoid expro- | priation proceedings if possible 'on { account of expense, new options were | secured, the figures being $17,200 { Mr. Whiting forwarded the result to i the city council, advising that a reso- lution for $17,200 be passad. This was done at the meeting on Monday night dast Notices have been sent | to each of the property owners ac- cepting the options, and' the pur- chase is now being put fhrough as quickly as possible, as the options ex- pire on Saturday next. Tenders were received for new school building and opened Wed- | nesday evening. Bulk tenders were | received from Messrs lace and separate tenders as follows: { Heating and tinsmithing, Ellott { Bros. and Simmons Bros.; carpent- { ering, H. Hunter; painting, T.

The cost of the school will be $8.- 204 in excess of the estiinate secured by the board some months ago, when the erection of a new school was de- cided upon, and was "held up' by the city council. The extra amount is due to the increased cost of material, which has been going up continually. : Salary of Women Teachers. | The management committee re- { commended the following: "That the women teachers in the public schools receive an increase of $100 instead of $50 as provided by the salary sched- ule of 1920, That the maximum salary for male principals be $1.8300, with $200 add- ed for Victoria school, 'a sixteen- room building. That the following increases in the sglaries of male principals be made, to take effect in January, 1920; Mr. Ettinger, from $1,700 to $1,900; Mr. M: 1 and Mr. Scott, from $1,~ 500 to $1,700. -- Discussion on Salaries. The board discussed the question of salaries of the women teachers, | but it was finally decided to leave | the matter over to be dealt with by | next year's board. Trustee. Macdonald, chairman of the management committee, said that the teachers were organizing all over the province, and making de- mands. Government showed 'that the cost of living in the last two years had increased over twenty-five per cent. Mrs. Newlands wanted to go still higher for the women teachers, and give them an increase of $75 instead of $50, and moved an amendment to o | said § ed on the taxpayers, time she could not but feel that the teachers who moulding the ji shargcter of the children should be |pendal s er paid. good salaries in order to get the very | Corn It was necessary to pay teachers. es Farrsll said there was a this mark can al assortment fo r bave a ct mark.

J. W. Kelly, instructor of the Col- legiate Institute Cadet Corps, wrote telling the board about the trophies the cadets won in the recent shoot- ing competition held under the aus- pices of the Ontario Rifle Associa tion. Two very fine trophies won by | the cadets decorated the chairman's | desk, and testified to the honors car- | ried off by the local boys. ; { In this connection the board re- ceived a letter from W. Sawyer, cap- tain of the cadet corps, asking the board to pay the cost of the railway transportatidh of the ten boys 'who took part in the competition at To- ronto. The sum asked for amount ed to $150. On motion of Trustees Farrell and Renton, the board voted the money to pay for the transportation. The | ! pleased over the showing made by the cadets.
