All members of tba Board were present and Wm. M. Bennett, Pres¬ ident of the Board, presided. The Treasurer of the Board, O. P. Schnerr, reported a balance ot $37,- 877i>S on September 1st, 1938. The reeelpts during the month of Sep¬ tember were $30,099.58 and the ex¬ penditures $9,656.97, leaving a bal¬ ance ot $M.$ie.6$ on Oetober Ut. The Sinking Fund as of October lst consUted ot a cash balance of $13.- 149.44 and Nasareth School DUtrict bonds of the 1922 Usue of $43,000.00 par amount, or a total ot $55,149.44. Tax Collector R. O. OrifBth re¬ ported collections of school taxes during the month of September amounting to $31,$73.S9. BilU aggregating $4,804.14 were ap¬ proved for payment and the treasu¬ rer was suthorised to pay them. A request was received from Mr. B. L. Coleman, County Agent, tor the use of the high school auditor¬ ium for the purpose of presenting educational features pertaining to rural life; the features to be pre¬ sented in the evening of November 18, and the afternoon and evening of November 19, 1938. The Board granted the request. The Orounds Committee, of which Elwood Unangst is the Chairman, reported having compared the bids received at the September meeting for painting the steel grand atands on the athletic field, and having awarded the eontraet to Mr, P. D. Abel who was the lowest bidder. A survey of future needs show¬ ing that additional room wUl be needed by the beginning of the 1939- 1940 school term to accommodate the increasing enrollment in the high school, the Board directed Superin¬ tendent P. A. Marcks and the Board's consulting engineer, Mr. Wm. Silfles, to prepare and present plans to the proper State Oepart- menU for their approval of recon¬ ditioning the Broad Street BiUldlng so as to accommodate flve sections or approxhnately 200 pupils, wiih the vUw ot having the work done as a W.PA. project. The estimate prepared by the Consulting Engineer and the Buildings ComnUttee, of which A. R. Snyder is the Chair¬ man, shows an approximate cost of 83000.00 to the school dUtrict tor materials exclusive of furniture and equipment. An estimate prepared by the Superentendent shows sn ap¬ proximate cost of 81,700.00 for fur¬ niture and equipment. Superintendent Marcks and Di¬ rector Unangst were named a com- n-.lttee to select and purchase a din¬ ing room suite at a co.st not exceed¬ ing $150 00 and silverware at a cost not exceeding $43.00 for use hi the Home Economics Department. The Superintendent was also authorUed ;o purchase a tool grinder from Mummert-Dlxon Co. at a cost of $104.50 for use In the Industrial Arte I>partment. Permission was granted to Miss Florence Nlchol.is. Principal of the Senior High School, to attend the Convention of Principals of Second- .iry Schools which will be held in Harrisburg on October 27th and 28th.

E C Pr.iiikenneld. North New St . on S.«;iiid,\y BROAD ST. SCHOOL BinUNNG TO BE | RECONDITIONED For Overflow From High School The Board of Education has been giving very serious consideration to the problem of increasing hign school enrollment. The rate of In¬ crease was accelerated during the depression and it wiU likely continue for several years more, due to the law Increasing the compulsory at¬ tendance age to 17 effective this year and 18 thereafter. Enrollment in September was 837 and the mid¬ term RTomotions will increase that flgure to about 865, whereas the normal capacity of the high school faciUties to only 800. All availab'.e iipace Is now in use and one cfas.s In typewrltting U being taught after regular school hpurs, in order to accommodate everyone. It is not at all unlikely tor the enrollment to be over the 1000 mark by September 1940. Non-resklent pupUs attending the high school number $$$ compared with 504 trom Naaareth, Indicating that the need for additional facU¬ ltiea has been brought about by the enroUment trom adjoining DUtrlete, These pupils eost the Naaareth DU¬ trtet more than U raaUaed trom tol- tion ebarges, chtetly beeauae no charge ean be Ineluded for Debt Serviee and Capital outUy. Up to the peeaent sueh unreallaed eoat waa compensated tor by tha fact that the inereaaed enroUment due to the non* resident students msde poasible a broader and more dlveralfled eurrt- euler program and better aehool fa¬ culties. Hoivever, it U tbe Judgement of tbe Board that the high sebotrt haa now reached the point where a auf• flcUntly varied program can be of¬ fered eeononUcally, unUM vocational eouraes are to be Introdueed. The IntroductUn ot vocatkMMl eouraes would require an addition to the present buUdlng for the neceasary shops and Uboratories, and Inel* dentally such addition would pro¬ vide aocommodatlons tor additional pupiU. Tbe need for vocational courses at the present time, how¬ ever, seems rather questionable and it U deemed prudent to go slowly with the introduction of such cour¬ ses untu the need for them U more evident and untU adequately trained teachers are avaUable. The recently enacted Uw knoem as the Thompson PUn for flnanclng a state-wide program of school build¬ ing projecte offers very little, if any. inducement to Third Class DUtrlct^ .situated as we are. Furthermore, there may be a reduction in non¬ resident enrolhnent after 1940, in the event Districte now sending their pupUs to Nasareth should consoli¬ date and establish high achooU of tlieU own. Several DUtrleU have the matter of eonsoUdatlon under conaideration, but flnal decUion will not be known imtll atter the vote ot their electors In 199$. Under the circumstences, a major buUdlng project Involving an In¬ ereaae In the bonded indebtedness and debt serviee of tbe District ap¬ pears Inadvisable at the present time, even though a 45% outright grant waa obtained as a PWA pro¬ ject; and it U therefore the con¬ sidered Judgment of the Board th.it new construction should at least be deterred until either the need for vocational courses U more evident oi the rural situation with regard to consolidations, etc., has become more clarified. On the other hand, the Board i^ desirous of having Nazareth con¬ tinue as the school center of its surroundeng vicinity. With thU hi view, and in order to relieve the over-crowded condition of the high school without having to refuse en¬ trance to any part of the non-resi¬ dent enrollment, the Board has de¬ cided to request permUslon from the Penna.. Department of Educa¬ tion to recondition the Broad St. Building, to be used to house five sections (approxhnately 200) of jun¬ ior high school pupils As a WPA project, the District's part of the cost of the work Is estimated at 83000, plus 81700 for equipment. The project would have to be completed by September 1939. Meeting the problem in this manner will not increase the Debt Service expen.se of the District. The plan of oper¬ ation would be for one group of pu¬ piU to use the Broad St. Buildin? in the forenoon and another group In the afternoon, so as to avoid moving from one building to another while school U in session. m m USHERS ASSOCIATION MEETS The Ushers' Association of the Nasareth Moarvian Church held its monthly meeting in the social rooms of the church on Tliursday evening at which time they eclded to hold a Spider Web social, Priday, No¬ vember 18th in the social rooms of the church.
