SLATES IN SCHOOLS.
[press association.]
WELLINGTON, July 2G,
In a letter to the Wellington Education Board, the Chief Health Officer said that one of the great sources d infection in schools was dust on tlio desks, on which the childieu coughed or sneezed. It would make very greatly for the diminution of infectious diseases if slates were done away with, and writing-pads substituted. The Board decided to obtain an estimate of the cost of supplying writ-ing-pads to the schools.
