BIDS ON MAGAZINE LIST Bids on the magazine list for the Library for the ensuing year, commencing September 1, were presented as follows: The Grimiaux Subscription Co. - $247.25. The H. H. Wilson Co. - 242.60. Selby-Harris Co. - 237.40. S. P. Tapping - 233.25. The bid of S. P. Tapping, of South Bellingham, having been found to be the lowest, was accepted, and Mr. Tapping was authorized to supply the magazines enumerated in the Librarian's list as submitted (with the exception of "The Drama" and "The Twentieth Century," both now suspended) at the stipulated price of $233.25, for the coming year commencing Sept. 1, 1914. COMMUNICATION FROM THE PRINCIPAL A communication embodying various recommendations from the Principal was presented as follows: August 8, 1914. To the Honorable Board of Trustees, Bellingham State Normal School, Bellingham, Wash. Gentlemen: In order that a number of small matters that have been held over from month to month may be adjusted before the opening of school in September, I am pleased to make the following recommendations: 1. Mr. Carver, who was selected to serve as Athletic Coach and Physical Director for boys at $40.00 per month (it being understood that he would serve only half time) is unable to go forward with this adjustment. He is willing, however, to accept a full time appointment of $60.00 per month, and I recommend that he be employed on this basis. 2. If one half of the School Nurse's salary may be paid from the School Nurse Fund, the money saved to the salary fund will make possible the employment of two or three general student assistants. I recommend that from the Nurse Fund there be applied $45.00 per month to this end, and that student assistants be appointed as follows: (Name), (Department), (Monthly Wage). Aida Uddenberg, Education, $20.00. J. H. Jones, Manual training, 20.00. Judith Axland, Training School, 20.00. WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for August 1914 Volume 05 - Page 047 1914-08-12 3. In the budget of the year $40.00 per month has been allowed for a student assistant in Penmanship. Mrs. Tillett was elected to the place, but could not accept. This leaves a vacancy which should be filled at once, and I recommend the employment of Mr. A S. Hartley at the figure named, namely $40.00 per month for the year. Mr. Hartley is a young man who has had five years of experience as a teacher. He has taught the Palmer Muscular Movement for three years, and is just now taking an advanced course in Penmanship at the Bellingham Business College. He is of pleasing personality, and would, I believe, fill the place satisfactorily. 4. The school is very fortunate in having as its matron Mrs. Ida E. Powell. During past years Mrs. Powell has been given a concession through permission to have her children with her in the dormitory and in spite of the fact that she will have them with her no longer, the matron's salary was left unchanged in making adjustments for the coming year. If the Edens Hall Fund will permit an increase of $10.00 per month in Mrs. Powell's salary I recommend that this amount be voted. This would make the salary of this excellent matron and housekeeper $70.00 per month. 5. As announced verbally at the last meeting of the Board, this institution has been identified for some years with the Puget Sound Marine Station. It is my belief that the school's relation to the Station should be continued, and I recommend that $50.00 per year be appropriated as the Bellingham Normal School's part in maintaining a research room at the Station, and that Prof. W. L. Moodie be appointed to represent this school at the summer council. 6. Miss Frances S. Hays, who has been elected acting dean of women for the new school year, requests that a telephone be installed in her office. I feel that the request is a reasonable one, and since the installation will cost only $1.25 per month I recommend that it be made. 7. The work in manual training promises to be more popular than ever during the coming year, and the department is in great need of additional supplies. I have been over the ground very carefully with Professor Gebaroff, and am convinced that if the funds will allow we should purchase three new benches at an approximate cost of $15.00 each, and at the earliest possible moment secure a band-saw with individual motor. I recommend that not to exceed $50.00 be allowed for supplying benches and tools that are urgently needed by the Manual Training Department. 8. The institution has a right to feel proud of the worn condition of the entrance to the main building, but the time has arrived when the floorway of the area just outside the door should be replaced. This, I believe, can be done at small cost, and I suggest that the new work begin immediately. Just below the entrance the brick-work of plumb, and the plaster covering the courses of brick has become broken and is disintegrating. These walls should be straightened and pointed at once, so that the state may be saved greater expense later on. WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for August 1914 Volume 05 - Page 048 1914-08-12 9. The long continued dry spell has, in a measure, destroyed the beauty of the campus, and it has been suggested by the gardner and others who seem well posted as to the nature of the soil of the Normal campus, that fertilizer should be applied in the hope of bringing to lawn back to its former beauty. Mr. Hendershot says that the shrubbery is being starved because of a lack of food, and I recommend that a start be made at the earliest possible moment to remedy this defect. Mr. Beal, the water commissioner of the city, informs me that if the school were to use its ten water taps during the entire sprinkling period permitted each day the cost to the school would not exceed $15.00 per month. The gardner says that we need for sprinkling purposes twelve 50-foot lengths of hose, and that these lengths can be secured at a net cost of $48.00, or less. He suggests also the puchase of a half dozen sprinklers. I recommend the expenditure of not to exceed $60.00 for providing the equipment of which the gardner is in immediate need. 10. The carpenter is putting in some time in repairing the play-ground apparatus for the Training School. It is Miss Norton's suggestion, which I endorse most heartily, that the swings, tooters, joy-wheel, and other apparatus be put in perfect condition for the opening of school in the fall, that the play-ground be thoroughly graveled, and, if possible, the play-room in the Annex be drained and made usable. She also suggests that, when thirty-five student teachers are sent out into the public schools to teach the last half of the year, a special supervisor should be provided. It is possible that Miss Ida Felt, who was granted leave of absence for the year, may be induced to come back in April and undertake this work, providing, of course, the Legislature votes a sufficiently large appropriation to permit the additional salary payment. The employment of Miss Felt is a matter that mist remain open until the work of the year is well organized, but it is something which will probably need the early attention of the Board. 11. A committee of the Students' Association met with me recently and suggested that the office which has been set apart for this organization be supplied with chairs and table, and that the partition, which divides the room into two parts be removed. The committee also asked that the walls be tinted so as to remove the weather discolorations now in evidence. This seems as reasonable request, and can be granted at small cost. If the Trustees do as the students desire, the Student Association will provide curtains, and other adornments for the room, so as to make it an attractive meeting place for committees of the various student organizations. 12. In order to avoid using the front campus as a play-ground I suggest that Secretary Edson be instructed to have graded as inexpensively as possible the ground which the school owns near the Manual Training Building. The stones may be removed, and a disc harrow used to advantage. If the field is graded and seeded promptly it will, I believe, be in good condition for use next spring. 13. It is my opinion that the work on the new Training School Annex should be promptly completed. The arrangement with the contractor was to the effect that he should paint the roof and calcimine the basement this summer, and the actual performance of the work WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for August 1914 Volume 05 - Page 049 1914-08-12 was assigned to a sub-contractor. I recommend that this work be immediately performed, or that the school be allowed to use the $140.00 remaining in the Building Fund to carry forth the work on its own account. 14. During my brief connection with the school I have become convinced that it will be well for the Board of Trustees to pass a resolution prohibiting all travelling salesmen of any kind from soliciting in and about the school. If this is not done many inexperienced but worthy students will be imposed upon and induced to buy books and other articles for which they have no need. If the principal of the school is ordered by the Board to exclude these solicitors from the grounds he will be alert to carry out the Board's commands. Hoping that these various matters may have your favorable consideration, I remain Sincerely yours, Principal. Action was taken on the foregoing recommendations as follows: Employment of Mr. Carver 1. On motion it was ordered that this recommendation be adopted, and that Mr. Carver be employed for the ensuing school year at a salary of $60 per month, as athletic coach and physical director for boys. School Nurse Salary 2. The recommendation was adopted that $45 per month of the salary of School Nurse be paid from the School Nurse Fund, the remaining $50 to be paid from the salary fund. Student Assistants Employed It was also ordered that the student assistants recommended be employed in various departments as follows: (Name), (Department), (Monthly Wage). Aida Uddenberg, Education, $20. J. H. Jones, Manual Training, 20. Judith Axland, Training School, 20. Mr. Hartley, Teacher of Penmanship 3. The recommendation that Mr. A. S. Hartley be employed as a teacher of Penmanship at a monthly salary of $40, was approved, and Mr. Hartley was elected to the position for the coming school year at the salary named. WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for August 1914 Volume 05 - Page 050 1914-08-12 Salary of Mrs. Powell 4. The recommendation that the salary of Mrs. Ide E. Powell, Matron of Edens Hall, be advanced from the present figure of $60 per month, to $70 per month, was considered in connection with another communication which was presented from Mrs. Powell herself. On motion it was ordered that the salary of Mrs. Ida E. Powell as Matron of Edens Hall, be fixed for the year commencing Sept. 1, 1914 at $70 per month. Puget Sound Marine Station 5. The suggestion with reference to the Puget Sound Marine Station was approved, and it was ordered that $50 from the Miscellaneous Supplies fund be appropriated for maintenance of a research room in connection with that institution, and that Prof. W. L. Moodie be appointed to represent this school at its summer council. 6, 7. Action was deferred upon the 6th and 7th recommendations. Repair of Brick Work 8. With reference to the 8th recommendation, Mr. Barlow was authorized to consult mechanics as to the manner of repairs advisable and the cost of mending the brick walls flanking the main entrance to the school. 9. Action was deferred as to the 9th suggestion. Flooring the Annex Basement 10. As to the 10th recommendation, Mr. Barlow was commissioned to ascertain the most feasible way of flooring the annex basement and the cost thereof. The remaining portion of this paragraph was not acted upon. 11. Action was deferred as to the 11th recommendation. To Improve the Athletic Field 12. Mr. Olsen was authorized to confer with parties having suitable equipment for smoothing the surface of the athletic field with a view to having that work done. 13. No action was taken on the 13th recommendation pending an adjustment as to other related matters. 14. The sentiment expressed in the 14th recommendation was heartily endorsed by the Board and the suggestion accepted.

WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for February 1920 Volume 05 - Page 316 1920-02 The following displays the condition of funds: Salary appropriation: $220,000: Expanded to March 1, 1920: 98, 159; Balance available: 121,841. Temporary scale to begin March 1 for six months at $11, 902.80: 71, 415. Balance Sept. 1, 1920: 80,434. On the new scale beginning September 1, 1920 at approximately $15,000 per month this balance would not carry the school to January 1, 1921. Maintenance appropriation: 45,000. Expended to March 1, 1920: 23, 157. Balance availab;e: 21,843. At $2,000 per month this balance would carry the school to the class of January. Combining salary and maintenance funds the institution could probably run until the fifteenth of January on the revised temporary schedule. Figures showing the probable deficit at the end of the fiscal year - March 31, 1921. Salaries under the temporary salary schedule - March 1, 1920 to Sept. 1, 1920 at $11, 902.80 per month: 71,415. Salaries under the fixed schedule - Sept. 1, 1920 to March 31, 1921 at $15,328 per month: 107,298. Total: 178,713. Funds available for salaries: 121,840. Deficit: $56, 873. Maintenance at $8,000 per month for 13 months: 96,000. Available funds: 21,843. Deficit: 4,157. Total Deficit: 61,030. This deficit is due to the imperative need of increased salaries for faculty and employees and to greatly increased cost of all articles consumed with special stress upon the matter of fuel oil. The needs of this school require approximately $190,000 per annum for salaries and $30,000 will be needed for repairs and small capital outlays so that a supplemental millage of 9.8 hundredths of a mill should be levied in the supplementary budget, bringing the total mileage for this institution up to 28 hundredths of a mill.
