TEACHERS IN FORCES
NON-ESSENTIAL WORK CRITICISM OF TASKS (Ter Press Association.) AUCKLAND, this day. “It is not the board’s policy to appeal for teachers called for serviceoverseas, but it has- been found that some on territorial service have been doing clerical work,’’ said the chairman, Mr. W. Campbell, at a meeting of the Education Board, when a notification was received that more teachers were to be called for home service for the duration of the war.
Mr. W. I. Boyer: One of our teachers put in the greater part of ids time in camp peeling potatoes. Other members agreed that teachers were too valuable in their own sphere to do non-essential work in camp, but if their services were considered essential there was nothing the board could do about it.
