The chief purpose of the High school work has not been and is not now to fit young people merely for colioge, but to pre pare them for the ordinary business of life as well. With this jdea in view the courses have been made very flexiblo, allowing pupils to pursue largely the bent of the clinations and desires. The results have demonstrated the wisdom of this plan, for the High school graduates of Omaha have as’ o rule been successful in business life, and have i many 1n- stances distinguished themselves as stu- dents in other institutions of learning Muny of them occupy prominent positions in commercial circles, and this year, at Harvard, in a class of 400, Oscar Quick of 1 stood second and Kenny Billings seventh Julia Schwartz_of competed with 700 others for the Vassar scholarship two years ago and won it. At Princeton Herbert Rogers of 'S) is president of his class and of the glee club. Seven out of the nine Omaha boys' at Princeton took honors this year. These are but a few of the instances in which Omaha High school graduates have done meritorious work; the list might bo made much larger, but it is large enough to show what the schiool does for its pupils, Some interesting statistics ave now in course of ation which show how the Omaha :hool compires with the high schools her leading citios of the country, and it is aire dent that the showing will be ng to Omahea.

Following this came an interesting com- munication from City Treasurer Bolin touch- ing the subject of placing school funds on in- terest in the bank to the credit of the school district rather than keeping the funds in tho custody of the treasurer, The communi- cation from Treasurer Bolln was an answer 10 a letter of inquiry sent him_ by resolution of the board asking if he had taken any steps to comply with the law of the amended charter requiring that the school funds be placad on interest in the bank to the creait of the district. The treasurer explained that he had given the matter some consideration and had sought legal advice on the subject.

The resolution embraced the charter provision which reads s follows: *“The treasurer shall keepall money in his hanas belonging toghe city or school district of the, eity scparate and distinet from his own moncy, and he is_ hereby cxpressly prohibited from using any such money or any war- rauts or other securities in his custody or receiving any interest thercon cither directly or indirectly for his own use, or benetit, o * the use or benefit of any other person or corporation except said ciiy or the school district therein.

The plan sug- gested in the resolution was that interest should be paid on monthly balances and the bank receiving the funds should be obliged to furnish a satisfactory bond to beap- proved by the board. No deposit shall be made in any bank having less than §200,000 paid up capital stock, and no deposit should be made in any bank in_excess of 45 per cont of the paid up capital of the bank The treasurer was required by this resolu- tion to keep all school district funds sep- arate from other funds and in no case will he be permitted to use, either directly or in- directly, such warrants in his keeping and custody for his own use or for the beuctit of any other perfon or persons or corporations except the school districts of this city. The resolution was referred to the judi- ciary committee and the attorney to be ported back to the board at the first meet- ing in July. Mr. Elgutter offered another resoluvion which was intended to clear the slateand let the board start afresh in the attempt to get satisfactory bids for the heating and v ulilnliugrl.mls of the Hickory and Long schools. He supported the resolution by saying that the board had experienced a good deal of trouble in trying to got satis- factory coutract for the new buildings and he thought the best way would be toreject all. the bids and begin over aguin. Mr. Gibson was opposed to the resolution He held that there had already been too much delay ia the watter. Opposed to Such Dela The board was wasting time and money by failing to award the countract for these buildings. The longe the board hesitated the longer it would be necessary to pay & high pricea architect to superintend the erectlon of these bulldings. Mr. Knodell was also opposed to the re- Jjection of the bids and begiuning o again, Mr. Morrison was in f.u'ur of readvert: ing. The resolution failed to carry when put to a vote.
