PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS,


Some days ago d special dispatch from
Santa Fe to several western newspapers
announced that there was shortage Of
public school teachers in New Mexico,
and many OF the examining boards had
issued second call for teachers.
Since the publication Of this dispatch
the territorial superintendent of educa-
ton, Hon. Amado Chaves, has been
flooded with letters of inquiry from all
parts of the country respecting these
teacherships. For the past few days
such letters have numbered about 100 per
day and while the superintendent regards
it as splendid sign of the times, signify
ing much as regards the future of the edu-
catlonal welfare of New Mexico, he finds
it simply impossible to respond to such
inquiries, He is not the proper person to
maze application to, nor did the special
dispatch referred to convey such an idea
but the would-be teachers seem to have
reached such conclusion in body and
they have piled the superintendent office
full OF missives which, were he to under
take reply, would keep him pretty busy
for the rest of his natural life.
Parties desiring positions as teachers
should apply to the county superintend-
ents Of public schools, list of whom,
together with their postoffice address, is
here appended:
