tribune FN TUESDAY nnd FRIDAY THIRTY-EIGHTH YEAR NORTH PLATTE, NEBRASKA, JANUARY 13, 1922. NO. 2. V. r COMPARISON OF SALARIES SALARIES OF KUItAIi TEACHEItS SHOW VARIATIONS DUIUNfl PAST TWO YEARS An educational directory Is pub lished by County Superintendent Allcen G. Cochran of Lincoln county for each year. The directories of 1D20-21 and 1921-22 have been com pared 'as to teacher's salaries In the rural schools. All teachers In coun try and town schools outside of North Platto wero considered. The highest salary paid this year outside of North Platto was $222 a month, tho lowest $75 a month. Sixty-two toachors are receiving $100 a month and that Is more than twice as many as receive any other amounL Jt is tho favorlto Balary this year. Comparing the salaries this year with those of last year wo find that soventy-six places lowered the salary some this year, twenty-nine Increased tho salary Borne and fifty-nine left it the same. These figures aro taken from the printed list and- are subject to such corrections as might come from mis takes and oversights. Tho deduction Is that there was a slight tendency this year to lower rural teacher's salaries' but that tho favorite amount Is $100 which is more than was paid somo few years ago. County Super intendent Cochran has shown tho need of paying well for rural teacher? and tho local school boards have heeded her advice. Read the Bargain . Counter list.
