TEACHERS NEEDED IN THE PHILIPPINES

'"The greatest opening for ambitious
young Americans that know of now
presents itself in the educational de-
partment Of the United States govern
ment in the Philippine islands," said
Private f. G. Gilpin of the United
States army, who passed through the
city this morning en- route to Fort
Niagara Falls, n. Y.
Gilpin has just returned from the
islands and for the past six months
has been on interior police duty in the
islands IN the region north of Manila,
on the island of Luzon.
He says there are hundreds of vii
lagos vigorously demanding teachers,
who "sabe Americana" or speak the
American language and many of these
villages offer superior inducements to
well educated young men and women,
Many of the islanders would gladly
bear the expense of hiring an Ameri-
can teacher themselves II teachers
could be found, but It is impossible
for the government to supply the de-
mand.
