Present: Chairman Edens, Mr. Donovan, Mr. White, Dr. Mathes and the clerk. Minutes of the meeting of August 12, August 24 and September 5 were read and approved. E.E. White presented his oath of office under appointment as trustee for the term from March 2, 1905, to March 2, 1911, and took his seat as a member of the board. J.J. Edens was nominated by Mr. White, seconded by Mr. Donovan, for chairman of the Board. Mr. White put the motion, which was carried. Mr. Edens thanked the other members of the board and accepted. Mr. Donovan moved that the insurance policies on the dormitory building be referred back to the agents, requesting Kline and Van Wyck to make one out for three years at the newly fixed rate for $1,500 and likewise requesting L.H. Daldy and Co. to make out their policy for three years for $1,500. The motion was seconded by Mr. White and carried. Mr. Donovan requested the clerk to look up the old policy on the dormitory, finding and reporting when it expires. During the discussion, the fact that no insurance is carried on the Normal building, was brought out. On motion of Mr. Donovan, the bill of Thiel and Welter for furniture for the dormitory, was ordered paid, subject to correction in the item charging $55 for ten bed couches instead of $50, if, on investigation, Dr. Mathes finds that such correction should be made. On Motion of Mr. White, J.S. Sheckey, who had appeared before the board and explained his bill, was ordered paid $62.50 as the balance due on materials for the fence, which he had purchased. Dr. Mathes made a verbal report on the effect of the vaccination order of the Board of Health on the need of a fence under the heating pipe from the Normal to the dormitory, which had not been built because no one was available to do the grading; on the new funds coming in from the dormitory, and the library and locker fees. WWU Board of Trustees meeting minutes for October 1905 Volume 02 - Page 032 1905-10-17 Dr. Mathes was instructed to include the fees received from lockers, with the established incidental fund, but to deposit the income from the dormitory separately. Mr. Donovan moved that it be the sense of the Board that as appropriation of $550 be provided from the Science fund of the State appropriation for the erection of a lecture room and green house, adjoining the Normal, subject to plans to be approved later. The motion carried. Dr. Mathes reported having engaged Charles Pothoran, Herman Smith, and Roger Williams, students, as assistant janitors at $9 per month, each, and Charles D. Jones, student, as assistant to the librarian, at $6 per month, in accordance with instructions of the trustees. Dr. Mathes further reported having engaged H.D. Boyd at the rate of $10 per month to assist in teaching Algebra during the first semester. This action was approved. Mr. Donovan moved, seconded by Mr. White, that the clerk be instructed not to pay salary warrants to any members of the faculty who have failed to sign their contracts. The clerk was further instructed to notify any members who have not executed their contracts, as submitted for the year 1905-1906, that this must be done before October 31.
