An unusual appeal is published in a recent issue of the "Norfolk Island Weekly.” It is an invitation to some person with a wide variety of accomplishments to fill a vacancy on the teaching staff at the Norfolk Island Public School. These arc the qualifications insisted upon: “Must be an unmarried male.- experienced in general class teaching, and capable of giving instruction in all branches of manual training, including woodwork, metal work, cardboard work, wire work, leather work (art and saddlery), art. agriculture, and agricultural botany. and swimming (preferably holder of instructor's certificate in lifesaving). Knowledge of music, with ability to teach part-singing, is desirable, though not essential. The appointee should also be the holder of a motor-driver's licence so that he can transport pupils to swimming, and he must take a keen and active interest in all branches of sport.”
