This bill, which signed by the Governor Wednes- nd is now a law, provides for the aside of a special fund by the Boards of Education on the ist of each year, to be known as the teachers’ salary fund. It is to be based upon careful estimates of the amount required for the purpose and is to be ample to meet teachers' sal- aries for the ensuing fiscal year. The measure passed the Assembly unani- y and there was only one vote against it in the Senate, that vote be- ing cast under a misapprehension.
