Finds It Has No Legal Right to Pay Salary to Secretary. A special meeting of the town school committee Wwas held Friday evening. L. B. Lincoln presided and the fol- lowing members were present: George Blliott, C. C. Page, P. J. Kell Curtls Deane, Dr. W. S. P. and Mrs. K. J. Spaulding The committee voted not to grant Miss Florence Hunt'’s request for a release from her contract as a teacher In the South Windham school. Such action would be contrary, the com- mittee thought, to the previous vote not to release teachers except by rea- son of incapacity or to enter some other vocation. Miss Hunt had a more lucrgtive offer to teach in another school. The matter of the secretary's sa ary was again discussed. Attorney Kelley gave the opinion concurring with Atforney General Light's view of the law that the secretary as secretary could not receive compensation. B: virtue of the office of secretary that member of the school commitiee is an acting echool visitor and in that capacity can charge 52 per day for actual services rendered. The mat- ter of paying a member of the school committee for doing the work of a secretary could only be taken up at the annual town meeting, if at all. This makes it impossible for the Dpresent secretary of the school com- mittes to receive compensation for her wcrk until the annual town meet- ing next October if the town should then vote to pay her for her services in_that capacity. The request of Mrs. McCallum of Mansfleld Depot to have her son trans- ferred from the school there to the Model school in Willimantic was sranted if the transfer could be made without expense to the town and C horized to m: essary arrangements with Principal Burr of the Normal school If the transfer could be made.
