APPEALING FOR TEACHERS.
To the Editor. Sir, —In reference to your leading article of June sth inst. re "Appealing for Teachers," I would like to enter & plea for the return to New Zealand of those teachers who volunteered in the early reinforcements, many of whom have been wounded and unfit for further service in the firing line. These teachers are probably doing work of much less importance than that for which they arc eminently suited and trained. Why not "appeal" for those who have stood the stress and strain of nearly three years of warfare and so help to solve the problem of the great shortage of teachers? I notice that a great number of officers return to New 1 Zealand (on duty) who are fit and well, and if they can be spared why not some of the qualified teachers who are admittedly so essentially necessary. —I am, etc., MOTHER. Hawera, June 0.
