The Board of Education has re- quested City Attorney Long for an opinion as to whether the mere as- signment of a teacher to a class is| equivalent to her election to the de- tment. When a teacher is assigned is made subject to a probationary iod of two years. The board be- a formal resolution elect- | ing the teachers must be adopted af- ter the probationary period has been | served. Some teachers, however, con- tend that the fact that a teacher has served two years’ probationary term without charges having been filed | ag: t her is sufficient to make her a | regular teacher in the School Depart- | ment. AFFECTS MANY TEACHERS. The opinion of the City Attorney | will be anxiously awaited, as it will ffect a large number of teachers that was igned to classes and continued | to teach after having served two vears without any further formal ac- tion by the board. A case in point is! that of Mrs. Reeves, who, Director | Roncovieri claims, was never elected | a regular teacher in the department. but was only assigned to a class after appointment as a high school substi- | tute to be paid only for actual ser-| vices. Mrs. Reeves now produces a letter, dated February 11, 1897, in- forming her that she was elected a regular teacher. Mrs. Reeves called on Roncovieri yesterday to answer the charge of Mrs. T. J. Stanton that she owed her | $102 for a board bill. Mrs. Reeves| produced a receipt signed “Mrs. Stan- | ton, per Abbott,” showing that she ! paid Abbott $102 for board and/| lodging on September 18, 1802. Ab- | bott was Mrs. Stanton’s agent at the| time, while she was East, and the re- ceipt clears Mrs. Reeves of any at-| tempt to evade payment of the bill. | —_———— SCHOOLS WILL OBSERVE BIRTHDAY OF it | The Sauntere; COLN Patriotic Exercises Will Be Held on February 12 in Honor of Mar- tyred President. In a circular issued yesterday by the Board of Education principals are re-| the last school hour of Friday, Febru- | ary 12, this day being the ninety-fifth | anniversary of the birth of Abraham Lincoln, so that patriotic exercises in the different class- rooms commemorative of the life and achievements of the maytyred Presi- Principals are also requested to or- der fire drills as frequently as possible, rule relating to fire drills is demand- ed.

The week commencing Monday, March 28, has been fixed as the spring vacation, and the summer vacation will commence June 13 and end July 25. Principals, in introducing substitutes to classes, are requested to refrain from giving advice to the substitutes in the hearing of pupils, and more par- ticularly principals are cautioned against criticizing the methods a sub- stitute might employ in imparting in- struction in the hearing of the pupils.
