““hution to all students with SCHOOLS WILL | FURNISH EOUKS HERE IN FALL Local BoarIEecides in Favor of Providing Texts Free to Students At a meeting of the Juneau School Board held on March 6, it was decided to adopt and provide te students free text books in all departments of the local scheols ef- feetive with the opening of sehools for the fall term next September. This decision was unanimously agreed to in consideration of the rtew ruling of the Territorial Board of Education that there would be, hereafter, a refund from the Ter- ritory of 70 percent en text books to districts where they were fur- nished free to students. This action of the local board will cause no additional burden on Juneau tax payers. The new rul- ing does not apply to consumable goods such as pencils, tablets, ete., the students still having to pur- chase these items as before.

The report of Tauno Niemi, appointed some hml‘ ago to inspect the homes and ness houses of the town for fire hazards, was read in detail and the council js to be asked to have each bad case remedied. A more satisfactory heating serv- ice for the fire hall during cold weather, and safeguards to pre- vent misuse of the telephone-siren ce which is being interfered with, were subjects of considerable @iseussion and those matters were left to the trustees to have taken care of. Other issues ordered brought to the notice of the Coun- cil were the condition of the salt- water tank and pump-house, which need servicing, accerding to infer- mation before the department. To prepare for the annual elec- tion of officers scheduled for mext month a nominating committee was appointed to secure candidates. Refreshments were served at the |.close of the meeting. >oo |MR.
