Incidents in Society BELIEVE THE DISCUSSION WAS OF MUCH VALUE Principals’ Club Review Mesting of School Boards—Two Papers Read at Gatiering. At the Broadway school Thursday afternoon there was a meeting of the| Princivals’ ciub, at which there were | present W. D, Tillson, J. B, Stanton, | Werking, F. L. Newton, I. C. Elmer, . Tarbex, and J. F. Lu- ce; s a review of the meet- ing of the schoel beards last week, and tie discussion concerning the res- olution presenied by the club. X was thought that its introduction nadj)o-a good, as many had not considered the matter and since that time Frawe changed their minds. There were two papers read at the meeting. Superintendent Tiison read a paper on the relatiom of the super- viser to his corps, which was partic- ulariy fine and brought forth much discussion, The second paper was by 1. C. Elmer on a plan to regulate the amount of teachers’ salaries. He said ere are two genmeral plams in use with modifications—the salary-for- position plan and the salary-for- ath-of-service plan. The first he declared to be defective, because the teacher has no chance to become ex- pert in any particular line of work, but makes it necessary for ome to change to another grade for a better- ment. As to the second plan he holds that it lacks the fundamental merits of in efficient salary payment plan. Good teachers are retained in spite of these plans, rather than because of them. If we are to be just to all—the poor; the mediocre, the good teachers alfhe —all salaries must be paid upon the basis of service rendered, that is, the teacher's salary must be in direct ra- tio to the amount of service rendered, which can easily be determined be- tween the superintendent and super- vising principai. This plan says to the teacher, Make yourself worth while and you shall be paid more. This pa- per was aiso discussed, the session lasting an hour and a half. GOVERNMENT MEN GIVE THIRD CO. HARD FIGHT.
