INTERPROVINCIAL.
[per press agency.] Dunedin, September 15. At a meeting of the Dunedin School Committee last night the following resolutions were carried:—lst. “That this committee believe the interests of education will be promoted by the introduction of more than has hitherto obtained of boy pupil teachers into our schools.” “That the head masters be required to co-operate with the committee, with the view to further their introduction, by recommending boys as pupil teachers in such proportions as will equalise the numbers of each sex so employed.” “That the terms of their engagement and salaries attached be advertised in the newspapers, and the head master be asked to notify from time to time the conditions on which pupil teachers are engaged in their respective schools.” At a meeting of the Porbury Park Company last night it transpired that there is every likelihood of the whole of the company’s property being leased for five years to the Dunedin Jockey Club. During the meeting it was suggested that the Government or City Council should purchase the Porbury Park for sporting and recreative purposes, as otherwise the time would come when it would be so valuable that shareholders would not be content with the revenue they will be receiving from the property.
