Bur-- 1 ton told board members that an option had been secured from Mr, Ellen R. Thornley to purchase the balance of her land just north of the school, for the sum of $5.i kk. Mr. Burton told the board that suo pupils are now enrolled at the school and that additional play ground is needed. Dr. G. D. Rut- ledge moved the adoption of the following resolution: Whereas, there is need of additional grounds for the North junior high school at Clearfield and an opportunity to purchase, Now, Therefore, Be it resolved, that the president be, and is hereby authorized to make the purchase of the parcel of land north of the school as described in the option of Mr. Ellen R. Thornley, and that the clerk be authorized to sign a check in payment thereof. The motion was seconded by David A. Johnston, and all members voted in the affirmative. The superintendent called attention to nursery schools to be established shortly for the purpose of caring for children of parents who are working and have children too young to go to school and too young to leave home. The program also provides for the care of school children between the ages of 6 to 12 years before and after school hours, provided the parents are working at war plants. The government is urging the local board to make application for funds for the project. Mr. Burton said that the nursery schools will be located in buildings other than school structures, .And nurses. and others will be employed tp care for the children. The project will be under the supervision of the Davis county school system. Superintendent Burton recommended to the board that present rules for payment of teachers while out of school, due to illness, be changed so as to extend the time for which they may be paid. In the past, if a teacher became ill, full pay was given for five pay for an addays and one-ha- lf ditional five days. The new plan, Mr. Burton said, is to be governed on a sliding scale, depending on the years of service a teacher has given to the district In other words, the teacher with 20 years service will receive more in days pay than the one who is serving the first year.
