REENGAGED SCHOOL TEAGHERS But Subject to Some Changes of Positions—Town Board Votes Salary Raises Aggregating $1900—Most of Teach- ing Staff of Town Have Now Reached the Maximum. NORWICH BULLE‘i‘IN, WEDNESDAY. MARCH 11, 1914 HERE IT IS —_—— The March meeting of the town school board, which had a special in- terest for the teachers because it was the time at which the question of re- engaging them for next year was to come up, was held on Tuesday eve- ning in the superintendent’s room in the town hall, This question was settled by a vote to reengage all the teachers, including the drawing teachers and the three su- pervisors, J. B. Stanton, Fred L. New- ton and F. R. McNamara. There was a provision about seme changes of Dpositions in reengaging some of the teachers and there was also a vote to give all the advances in salary recom- mended by Superintendent E. J. Gra- ham. These various advances bring | most of the teachers in the town to: the maximum fixed by the board some ! time ago and make an aggregate in- crease in salary budget of $1,900. There is no advance in salary in the cases of the supervisors. In the absence of President Shepard B. Palmer who is out of town, B. P. Bishop was made chairman of the meeting. Secretary T. J. Kelly acted in_ his usual capacity. The committee on care of property reported that some important sanitary improvements were to be made at the Hobart avenue and the Mt Pleasant street schools and that the larger| BERKSHIRE AVE,, schools would be fumigated during the bridge to 516 Helen. coming spring recess. 3 Knowlton st. intersects.

Norwich Coliege Club Names Commit- tee for the Work. At the meeting of the College club held Monday afternoon in Slater hall, with Miss Louise C. Howe, president, in the chair, plans were d ssed for an entertainment to be held after Eas- ter for the purpose of raising fund to send some Academy girl to the Con- necticut College for Women. The com- mitiee appointed os as follow: Miss Bonfoey, chairman. .Mrs. All L. Brown, Miss Sutton, Miss Jane Bill, | Mres, Edward J. Graham, ) s Cather- ine Beckely and Miss Marion Pullen. | The followilng report was presented { by Miss Newtor, chairman of the ex- ecutive committee R gnizing the fact that though | we, as individuals desire to give per- | sonal support each to our own college, | t as a college club we could not be partial to any one of them; ing algo that we could our loyalty to that for of college women we stand than by uniting all our alma maters, to lend our in-| fluence and our efforts for the new Connect College for Women which will not only bring its benfits and op- | portunities almost teo our doors, but| will stand for something new and hitherto unprovided for in woman's training, will fill an unfiulled want for Toman's education and be distinctly in the line of progress: in view of these things the committee decided to. recommend that the College club g0 on record as in sympathy with the aims and inception of the new college and adopt some means of more definitely and actively offering its friendline: and support. We would recommend first and fore- most that a publicity committee be mppointed whose object shall be to keep the coliege in people’s minds by ronversation, correspondence, by fre- guent press notices or in any other way that occurs to their fertile minds; and particularly to attempt to interest peo- ple of means to give largely for the funds for its buildings: rather espe- eially to approach to this end people of Norwich or Norwich connections that possibly through the efforts and as a result of our Norwich College club a | “Norwich hall” may hava its place on the college campus. Thus we might combine to do something for Norwich as well as for the new college.
