T h e a p p o i n t m e n t s r e c o m m e n d e d were m a d e a n d t h e o t h e r recomm e n d a t i o n s of t h e r e p o r t were adopted.

SCHOOL OF PHARMACY.

It is recommended that the guaranteed salaries of the School of Pharmacy be $3,000.00; that Dr. Rogers be paid $100.00; and that the remaining$2,900.00 be divided as follows, viz.: Professor Hallberg one-third, or $966.66; and Professor Puckner the same; Professor Goodman two-ninths, or $644.44; and Professor Day one-ninth, or $322.22; and that each teacher pay the salary of his assistant, if any. If there should be an excess of receipts over expenses, on this basis, it is recommended that it be divided in the same proportion, excluding Dr. Rogers, up to the sum of $1,500.00, beyond which the faculty shall in no event have any claim. T h e s e r e c o m m e n d a t i o n s c o n c e r n i n g t h e School of P h a r m a c y were adopted.

LIBRARY AND LIBRARY SCHOOL.

1. That Margaret Mann be appointed assistant librarian and instructor in library economy at $1,100.00 for twelve months. 2. That Grace Osborne Edwards be reappointed cataloguer at $900.00 for twelve months. 3. That Laura Russell Gibbs be reappointed loan desk assistant, at $720.00 for twelve months. 4. That Lucy B. Ely Willcox be appointed loan desk assistant at $720.00 for twelve months. 5. That Willard Otis Waters be appointed order clerk at $720.00 for twelve months. 6. That Cecelia McConnel be reappointed reviser of the junior work at $50.00 per month for ten months. 7. That Emma Reed Jutton be reappointed reviser of the junior work at $50.00 per month for ten months. 8. That William Liebrick Couch be appointed custodian of the Law Library at $20.00 per month for ten months. 9. That Richard Pratt Garrett be appointed assistant custodian of the Law Library at $10.00 per month for ten months. 10. That Charles C. Roy all be appointed stenographer at $25.00 per month for twelve months, with the understanding that he is to give half time for five days in the week and full time on Saturdays. The most important appointment in the Library School, that made necessary by the resignation of Professor Straight, is yet to be made. It has not yet been possible to secure a suitable appointee, although diligent efforts in that direction have been made. Professor Sharp is now in attendance at the American Library Association, at Montreal, and hopes soon to secure an experienced and capable incumbent for this leading position. I am therefore obliged to be content with recommending that the President be authorized to make an engagement as soon as practicable, and to pay a salary of not more than $1,500.00 per year. T h e foregoing r e c o m m e n d a t i o n s with r e g a r d to t h e L i b r a r y a n d t h e L i b r a r y School were a d o p t e d :

ASSISTANTS.

1. That Fred Randall Crane be reappointed assistant in farm mechanics at $750.00 a year.
