WOMEN TEACHERS
The New Zealand Women Teachers' Association conference ended last night. Miss E. Andrews presided. Among tho rcniits dealt with was one protesting against the Department's recent direction as to the particular class to be taught by the infant mistress, and another supporting the Trained Nurses' Association in petitioning against the amending Bill to tho Nursing and Medical Service Act which will allow private hospitals to train nurses.
Thanks were expressed to' Miss Andrews for the great amount of work done by her, especially in drawing up and presenting a report before the Parliamentary Kecess Committee. Miss Andrews was nominated a delegate from the W.T.A. to the Women's PahPacific Conference this year. The report and., balance-sheet were adopted, the former telling of a busy •year and giving the membership of tlift association as 1080, which is thought to be a record, and the latter showing a credit balance of £175.
