SCHOOL GINGES M ARE REGARDED : AS IMPRACTICABLE - County Board of Education i Turns Down Several Requests For Revision Of Work—No Shorter Hours For Stanton School JANITOR AT EASTPORT SCHOOL GETS INCREASE Because of the election, the regular i November meeting of the Board of ! Education of Anne Arundel county, ! which should have been held on the jiirst Tuesday of the month, took plade | yesterday, with a full attendance of i tlie members. Nothing of outstanding i importance came up for considera tion, and only minor matters were dis ! posed of during the rather short meeting. Two appointments as trus-j I tees of schools %ero made, that of j Charles Wayson, at Davidsonville, in i place of Harry Duckett, and that of Grant Gaither, to tlie colored school, ; No. 6. Fourth district, above Arnold’s. Several letters requesting additions to. o rehanges in. school work were received by the board; but in each case the requests were found to he impracticable under present condi tions. Miss Katharine Walton, the artist, made a plea for the appointment of a drawing teacher in the Annapolis schools, but, while recognizing fully the importance of such instruction, the hoard found itself without the money to carry it out. Another communication was from the Patrons’ Association of the Stan ton school, asking for shorter hours of attendance fyr the children. This the board was unable to grant be cause the hours are set by law and may not be changed. Increase Janitor’s Salary After granting an increase in tlie salary of the janitor of the Eastport school, amounting to $lO for each school month, all bills presented were gone over and ordered paid. How -1 ever, sveeral exceptions were made, where cleaning expenses in one or two I school houses seemed unreasonable i and unauthorized, and these were or dered investigated before payment is ; made.

SPORTSMEN READY FOR GUNNING SEW Wood And Field Will Be Full Of Them On Opening Day, Day, Monday OVER 1,100 QET LICENSES Anne Arundel county will have more than 1.000 sportsmen In wood and field gunning for birds and game on Monday, that is. if the number of persons who have taken out gunning licenses have planned trips for the opening day of the gunning season which comes then. The number of licenses issued from the Clerk’s office at the Court House up to the present time, is larger Ly far than for many years past, the total being 1,140, as compared to 820 for I the corresponding period of last sea son. That the total should he 320 greater is accounted for by two reas ! ons, first, that birds and game are re ported to be more plentiful than for ! several years past, and then many of ! the younger men of the county, who I represent a large proportion of tiie sporting element, were in the army or navy of Uncle Sam during the war. The armistice was signed after the gunning season was open, hut it was months after that the men were dis charged from further service. The number of licenses issued, re ferred to above, represents county li censes only, and there are several hundred others who have taken out either non-resident or Stare-wide li j cense§ from the Anne Arundel license ; clerk. The total licenses issued for the whole of last season was qver 1,- i 700. Rabbits and squirrel, partridges, woodcock and dove, toill be the prin- j cipal quarry to be sought by the j sportsmen. The ducking season i comes along later. The stage Is set therefore, for tlie gunning season, auq, the crack of the gun will be heard at the crack of day oa next Monday.

Armstrong is president. The brotherhood charged nothing for the lecture, and it was thrown open to all tlie public, and the response clearly showed the appreciation of the poo pie generally for the opportunity of having a near up view of the won cl*-rfill air feat accomplished success fully under the supervision of the American government. Preceding Ihe lecture patriotic songs were sung, and prayer was offered by Rev. J. L. Walsh, of Eastport. Theme )ividly Pori rayed. Commander Lavender opened his lecture with an account of the four month period necessary for prepara- j tory work. He then, with the help | of the pictures, described most in I terestingly the airplanes, especially the N-C 3 on which he was stationed . Tlie apparatus used on board, the va- j rious new features in the construe tion, and the many devices for a safe and successful journey were so vividly I presented as to he clear to all who | heard, lfe then held his audience for ; an hour as he described tlie trip from j the standpoint of tlie N-C 3 which al j most reached the Azores, but did not 1 being outdone by tlie N-C 4, command ed by Comdr. Read. When the plane was forced down to the water, aftei being lost in the air, the machine drifted for 72 hours on the Atlantic j before relief came. The experiences of the men showed what American pluck, skill and spirit can do, and the audience last night expressed its ap predation of this heroism and daring by the splendid ovation they gave Commander Lavender at the comple tion of li is address. The Brotherhood purposes to present a number of at tractive programs this winter which will be open to the public. Lie at.
