It has been | the practice of principals to exclude las far as possible all children | coming from homes where the disease | existed, In many cases these cases are not reported and the exclusion ecannot be en- forced. The superintend recommended that the health officer be provided with postal cards <o that he could notify the school board of cases as soon as they were reported to him The superintendent also asked for instruc- tions as to the disposition of the books whis have been taken to the homes of children in- fected with the disease, The secretary was instructed to provide the health officer with the necessary postal cards and the superintendent was authorized to take whatever steps he cousidered neces- sary to remove all danger of contagion. The principal of the West Side school re- ported ' that the grounds were not provided with water. The committee on buildings and property instructed to put down & well at a cost not to exceed £50.

On motion of Dr. Saville it was decided to change the electric bells in the high school for four gongs, which are to be placed in the halls, At the request of the hoard the attorney, Lee Estelle, made a statement of the ruling of the supreme court on the school bonds. The attoruey stated that if another clection for bonds was held at the same time as the election for members of the school board, it would be a question whether women would be gual fied to vote on the bond_proposition, as the mdoubtedly qualified to vote on the election of members of the board,which would involve the same question as before on the majo 1y to carrys the bonds, Even if a special election was cilled to_vote on a proposition for the issuing of bonds, he said, the board could not dispose of the money without getting the consent of the people at u regular election. He said that he was not prepared to advise the board as to the best course to pursue, as he had only received the dec of the supreme court yesterday, and requested further time to look the matter up. On motion of Mr. Martin it was_decided that when the board adjourn it be until ‘Tuesday night, when the matter of school bonds should be made the special order.

Mr. Poppleton thought the authority to issue bonds carried with it the right to spend the money On mot .
