Teachers' Pay Under New School Code In Institute
The new school code guarantees a week's pay to teachers who attend institute daily. The Henry county institute is in session and all teachers present. In Delaware county over 200 teachers are involved. An institute officer says no pay until the law is declared valid by the supreme court. The State school commissioner and Attorney General advise that teachers who obtain certificates for full daily attendance and who are employed within three months after institute closes receive one week's pay in addition to the first month’s salary.
