TEACHER’S HARDSHIPS
THE COROMANDEL CASE [ Per Press Association. ] AUCKLAND, April H. Stories of alleged hardships suffered by a teacher in an isolated part of Coromandel Peninsula were refuted at a meeting of the Auckland Education Board to-day, when a letter was received from a district resident. The teacher at the last meeting had applied for a transfer because the, home provided was not fit for human habitation, and he had to live in two dirty rooms with a rusty wire mattress and overcoat for a bed. The Board then decided to write the Education Department that a shanty be erected alongside the, school. The resident states that the teacher was offered good lodging. It was decided to-day that the advisory inspector be sent to the district to investigate.
