Dodson who voted "no" on the theory that there were Harrisburgers perfectly capable Of doing the job. They also talked figures. Nellie Van Dyke, who resgined, was paid $700 for supervision of the cafeterias; $2000 for being home economics supervisor. The new supervisor will receive $3000 yearly and will have nothing to do with the home economics department. The purchasing department will buy supplies.

The school beard treasurer will continue to look after the money. Wert will have charge of one meal dally in the cafeterias. One director said: "If we pay a man $3000 for serving one meal a day, that would be a $9000 job if he served three. Others quick with their pencils figured that the rate averaged about $16 per meal. There are 190 days In the school year.

The board had to suspend its own rules to make the election. Hitherto the choice was made by the board secretary, now R. E. Bos well. The new man will be solely responsible to Dr.

Abernethy, who picked him. One man silenced the discussion when he said: "Why should the board kick about briging in an out town man. They brought in Abernethy from Lebanon, didn't they?" That broke up the discussion. i Agriculture Forces Enjoy Annual Outing I i rv Ti a. Mr II (Si 5 rA lit I X.
