SCHOOL BOUNDARIES
COMMISSION IN THE NORTH. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) . Auckland, May 21. the Education District Boundaries Commission, comprising Messrs. A. W ihomson, G. M. Thomson, J. S. Tranchon, AY. Petrie, and G. Hogben, heard evidence here to-day. All the evidenco was wholly and strongly against the division of the Auckland district. Witnesses representing the Education Board, tho inspectorate, and various educational bodies testified that large districts such as Auckland made for emicency in teaching and. economy in administration. It was also pointed out that tho division of tho district would disarrange the Auckland scheme •of grading of teachers which was working very satisfactorily, whereas the creating of other large districts would allow the Auckland grading schemes to dovetail m with other grading systems, resulting in general benefit to the teaching profession. The argument appeared to be that the smaller tho district tho less value was tho grading scheme b teachers affected. Further evidenco will be heard tomorrow. „
