The most puz- zling feature of the situation is how the output from the gang can be separated from the dollars issued by the government, as they are exactly similar.” The silver mine owners are want­ ing to work this seigniorage scheme and it is natural that they should, but the wonder is that there should be innocent people in no way to be benefited, but sure to lose who are assisting them.

J J 9 73 175 00 The state superintendent has settled a question which ought never to have arisen, but yet has been often asked. Rule 16 in the new Teacher’s registers says: “ Boards o f directors should meet at the close o f each school month and authorize the chairm an and clerk to draw warrants for the paym ent o f teach­ er's salaries.” This construction o f sub­ division 18, section 37, School Law s, is is in the nature o f an official opinion and means that directors must hold board meetings once a month while school is in session. School orders drawn without such a meeting to authorize them are at the personal risk o f the clerk. Mrs. S a ilin g ol Weston is visiting, her daughter Mrs. Coffin this F. S.
