At the High schodl a new manual training room contalning twenty benches and wood lathes will be used for the first time, but apart from that there is no expansion of the work. “The old Monmouth Park school will be used while the new one és be'ng constructed, but the overflow will continue to crowd the Saratoga school and necessitate the renting | of -two outside rooms. The Kellom school likely will be crowded as usual. The most indonvenient thing of all, however, is the situation at the Beals school, which burned last winter. The puplls, numbering about 100, have to walk long distances to either the Columbla or Windsor schools, as the board has no money for a new bullding this year." There was an exceptionally large number of resignations and marriages of teachers during the past summer; also an unusual number who retired from their positions to enter colleges for other reasons. The total is close to fifty. At the High school there will be two additional instructors—Miss Theodora Borglum and Migs"Minnle Steph- enson, who will be employed in the English, Latin and mathematics departments. Then there are these new members of the corpe. due to resignations: C. M. Bracelen, in place of Miss Laura B. Pfeiffer as head of the history department; Mr. Dasen- brock, teacher in German, who fills a va- cancy in consequence of the departure of A. R Congdon, mathematics; F. A. Bar- bour, teacher in writing, due to Miss Ber- tha Green, mathematics, leaving; Miss Mao Hanting, in place of Miss Ethel Evans, in free hand drewing; Miss Tielen Brandels, vice Miss Amelia Farnsworth, Latin and mathematics; Miss Edith Higgins, vice Miss Gertrude Macomber, Instructor In phystcal culture. Authority has been granted also for the employment of another assistant in manual training and mechan- fcal drawing, and still another teacher may be hired if the clasees are unusually large. Te Wateh N sidents. Secretary Burgess of the school ‘board has issued a letter to all principals urging them to exercise special diligence in order fhat no nonresident pupil may obtain in- struction without payment of the required tuition fees. The circular says: “It has been reported that pupils whose parents dp not reside within the city of Omaha have been attending school without the payment of tultion. It also has been reported that in some cases puplls have made misstatements regarding the resi- dence of their parents in order to obtain free tuition. “No child is allowed to attend school without the payment of tuition unless his parents or legal guardians reside in the city of Omaha.” The secretary states he is convinced that In the suburban schools many children have attended free during past years whe had no right to do so. This, of course, &) plies strictly to.the grade schools, the: being less opportunity for such evasion at the High school. Bome ten or fifteen grade puplis paid the tuition last year and about fifty In the High school. Of the latter thirty came from suburbs near Omaha and twenty from cutside the county, including & few from low The tuition fees are as follows for the school year: High school, W7I; Ofth to eighth grades, | school and then drop out in & short time, | company, inclusive, $20; fourth grade to kindergar- ten, §15. Heretofore 1t has been tH cystom for nonresident pupils In Douglas county to pay but $18.50, the remainder, $28.60, being paid by the county under & law which has been declared unconstitutional. For this reason all nonresident puplls at the High school will be required to hand over the full smount In advance this fall Superintendent Pearse has issued this bul- oA Ce lsory Attendance Law. The following features of the compulsory attendance law are of general interest. In #ome of these items the law has been changed since last year: First—Children who are not yet 15 yeas public school school, 7 xears old, but old, must attend either the or a private or parochial or receive regular instruction from some person qualified to instruct in the studies ht in the public schools. Becond—This attendance must begin on the day the public schools epen and must continue for two-thirds of the time sche in session during the year will require an attendance of twenty-fi and one-third weeks. Third—The attendance must be continuous | until the requited period is completed. Chil- dren cannot start in with the opening of | regularly for the twenty-five one-third weeks. Fourth—Children from 7 to 18 years who are deaf or blind, must .uena for the Deaf st Omaha, Bchool for the Biind at Nebraska Cit) less such children are being pflvlle{y in- structed In a sultable manner. To Sell Cadet Suits, The local clothing firm. the Berg-Swanson has been designated by Pettibone Bros. Manufacturing company of Cincla natl as the agent for high school cadet uni- forms. The Clncinnati house holds the con- | tract for supplying the apparel. RAISE IN LAUNDRY PRICES General Advance Uontemplated in Omahs as is Done in Other Oities CHICAGO AND FAR WEST TAKE LEAD Reason Assigned by Local Managers is the General Increase in Cost of Material, Fu Labor. Collars will be higher this winter and worn a trifie solled. This is not a recent hint from London for those who follow the fluctuations of the dress habit, but a sol- emn forecast of the laundry situation in Omaha. For on the authority of a leading laundryman the prices on a large part of the work dome will be raised. The new {price list will be announced soon. Blue flannel shirts will be the popular thing this | season uniess Mr. Carnegie can be induced to found & laundry here where poor wash- | ing—that is, washing for the poor—can be done. The movement is general in nature. In Chicago & new schedule has just been an- nounced and in some of the cities a body bas to earn & nickel before he can get' his collar back. In Denver | also the prices were put up some time ago !'and a pleated shirt is done up for not less than 2 cents. In Chicago the scale has all along been unusually low—collars being 2 cents and cuffs 4 The new price list lses these smounis to 2% and § cents respectively. ‘This apparently small in- crease will get insiduously to work at the savings deposits of the would-be clean, for it i calculated that this change alone will increase the Intake of the laundries by about $800,000. The change Is in an upward direction all along the clothes line, and the same thing, aithough the laundry men do not yet go into details, will cghe about here. ““This increase is made hecessary by the continued increase in cost to us of every- thing which pertains to clean linen,” sald the manager of a local laundry.” Wag are higher, coal increase all the time and we are already paying the same price that we gave last year, tallow for soaps has gone up a fourth cent per pound The higher price of laundry work will only be in uccord with the genegal tend- ency, People hear & bigger outcry when our price goes up, because you see almost every man has to have a little washing done, and 8o the increase hits thé general public hard. In most other lines not so many people are directly affected. FORTY DOLLARS IN CUPBOARD Momey is Stol She Hy y Man Pacific coast | Mrs. Kellstrom of 4610 Howard street re- ported to the police that “Shorty” Hamil- ton, a man she had doing odd jobs around the place, entered her cupboard while she was upstairs and stole $40. “Shorty” Ham- fiton didn't wait to tell the woman that he was going, but left unceremoniously, and | Mrs Kellstrom fears has made good b | escape. She asks the police to find him and to recover what is left of the $40. PRINTERS’ UNION PROSPERS Organisation Never Conditio Ja. Was in Bettex Says President M. Lynch, President J. M. Lynch, Secretary J. W. Bramwood of the International Typograph- fcal union and L. C. Shepherd, all of whom are members of the board of trustees of the Printers’ home at Colorado Springs, were in town Saturday enroute to Colorado | Bprings, leaving at 1:30 in the afternoon via the Rock Island o inspect the home. The gentiemen visited The Bee office. President Lynch sald: “The affairs of the International Typographical union were never in hetter shape than at present. There were elghteon printers’ strikes last year, involving 4600 members of the craft, but these have all been amicably adjusted. There are no labor troubles st present in the west involving the printers except the one with the Los Angeles Times. The membership of the union is growing and its affairs are in & most gratitying shape.” —_— Back from Enecl R. 8.
