Board, Scott Reid,brought a
hearty round of applause on Mon-
day evening when he announced,
that the salary of board members
was to be donbied. The reason the

announcement 'didn't make head-
lines is the fact that public school
board memberspay is exactly
nothing. Doubling won't` do them-

much good but then it , Won't do
