^vear is to be continued in force, and
I such restrictions aru to Ik* thrc>w?
armmd the adn? nisi rat ion of the
schools as to make it difficult to vary
from the legal salary in any commu

marnntop th;it tho w.-H Irnncil OIUL

very materially higher salary than

tax for salaries shall not exceed 30
cents on the $100 worth of property.
Any deficiency after the above tax
ha a been levit.Ml is to In- made up. from,
the state equalizing fund. The leg
islature also provided a loan fund of
. $5.000.000 _Lo- be used l n erecting con
solidated school buildings in commu

(will enable needy coiwnunities to ob

frucks and pay 'ransportation costs
?where necessary. Trucks are put in
the same cIaak buildingk ? and
equipment and maintenance cost is
put with the teachers', salaries. ?
? Br: ? Brooks reported that tlm leg
Jslature was entirely frtfcndly to the
schools and that all school laws en
acted" were* along the tine of pro

4. The following teachers from
the Youngsville and Pranklinton Re
ading Circle Group passed the work
satisfactorily according to the report
of the Group Leader Mr. J. J. Rose:
Mrs. Elizabeth Winston, Miss Ger
.trude Winston, Miss Burma Perry,
Miss Effie Tharrington, Miss Mary
O'Bryant and Miss Mary Lowery.
5. Through mistake the name of
Miss Musa Harris was omitted from
the list of teachers in the Cedar Kock
and Cypress Creek Reading Circle
Group. Mias Harris attended all the
meetings and passed a satisfactory
examination and will receive full cre
dit for the work.
6. I will be, glad to confer with
any teacher, who expects to attend a
summer school, in regard to the
course she should take. This mat
ter should be decided upon before the
opening of the summer school . All
teachers holding second grade and
a county summer school and not a
state summer school. The course
that a teacher, attending -a state sun>
mer school, should choose depends
upon the following:
? It ? The grade of work she expects
to. do.
2. Whether or not she is trying
to renew her certificate or raise it to
a higher class.
