of as very much work, and it

Hay refuses
pay increase
Ha school area trustees, at a
!pecial meeting ,Friday .night,
turned down a request from town -
whip teachers. for a $200 increase
in salary.-'
The board said: "Having re-
C..wed the salary schedule paid
by other school boards. in this
inspectorate in comparison to the
Hay board in the past year or
two, we find that the Hay
salaries were considerably above
,average."
The board also reasoned "that
the attendance in some schools
will be coesiderably lower as of
Sept. 1;' 1959," because of the
Erection of the separate 'school
In Zurich.
The 'board made an exception
for Mesa Carole Kyle,'"who is in.
line for an increase since • she
how has 'had two': years' experi-
puce and is a uualified teacher."
The Hay' board sets one amount
for all teachers, except the prin-
eipaT: Present level' is :$3,400;

the boys got an old barn they

This patrol •has been hunting
for a patrol den for several

few windows. The den doesn't
have to be more than 10' by 12'.
In here the. Stags plan to build
cupboards, a work bench.. a
table and other furniture. They
will get old furniture from home
and what they can't salvage
they will build.
