Board of Education Likely to Drop Boms of

NO IRONCLAD RULE WILL BE FORMULATED

At the annual election of teachers next
month, certain members of tho Hoard of
Education will take a position against the
employment of married women. Thero has
been a marked fooling, particularly among
tbo new members of the board, and It Is
not unlikely that tho sentiment will tako the
form of a resolution nt a meeting in tho
near future. Of tho twenty-six married
teachors now on tho rolls, several secure
Immunity through widowhood, but thero Is
a largo proportion whose husbands nre able
nnd willing to rendor thorn support. It Is
prnbablo that no Ironclad rulo will bo mndo,
but tho agitation will rather havo Us effect
In Individual cases.
Ouo member who dons not wsh his namo
connected with tho movement at this time,
said: "Tho board does not wish to deal un
fairly or harshly with any teacher simply
becnuBO sho has committed matrimony.
There Is no doubt, howover, bui that sho
Is occupying tho place whicl might bet
tor go to an ambitious splnstor who has no
matrimonial expectations and expects to
tnako teaching her life work. Of courso there
nro cases where tho natural head of tho
family Is sick or otherwise unablo 10 earn
a living and a few exceptions might bo
mado, Wo havo a High school full of girls,
howover, and many of them are looking for
ward to fomo day becoming teachers, I be
llovo In giving them a chnnco and thero Isn't
much for them to look forward to when tho.
high-salaried positions are hold by matrons.
"Tho decrease and curtailments havo
hitherto been along the wrong line. One
case In point Is thnt of Prof. Ilealo, who dloc
last wook after a nervlco of thirty-nine
years. Hundreds of young business men
about tho city secured part o! their trulnliie
nt his hands und ho was still doing good
work when ho was dropped from tho roli
last spring, ulthough ho was later replaced
at n nominal salary. A resolution will bo
Introduced nt tho board meeting next Mon
day night to continue his salary until tho
end of tho year and 1 will movo to nmend
by substituting his former wages of $100 per
month."
President Ilurgefs of tho board said that
thu prment ngltntlon was an annual feature
of tho spring election nnd ho did not expect
It would, como to anything more than usual,
except possibly in a fow Individual cas?s.
"Tho only tlmo tho board ever considered
a resolution to disbar married women," said
Mr. Ilurgcss, "was threo years ugo, when
It was propesed to discharge women without
notlco whenever they married. Tho matter
was referred to the board's attorney, who
reported that ho did not hollevo such a rulo
could bo lawfully carried out. He wa of
tho opinion that tlm courts would declare a
ban on matrimony to bo agaln'. public pol
