MANY CHANCEs
HAVE BEEN MADE
Twelve of This Years Corps Resign
Their Position, Many of Them to
Marry During the Summer-New
Teachers Come Highly Recon-
mended.

The school year for 1908 being barely
closed the board of education and Sup
erintendant C. Nj. Mcdaniel have al
ready secured the corps of eighty-six
teachers for next year, including the
six high school teachers and the prin-
cipais of the various schools.
Twelve of the old corps have re-
signed, but are supplnnted by twelve
new ones I'm addition to four teachers
for the new Wallace school on Calumet
and Conkey avenues. Owing to the
opening of the Wallace school there
will be some changing around in the
other schools in order that the
school may not be started off with
entire new corps of teachers. The
ignatiOns this year are not half of
what they used to be in former years,
this being largely due to the increase
IN the teachers salaries and the con-
genial system that has been estab-
nshed In the Hammond schools.
With more of a permanent force the
system is bound to improve, something
for which Professor Mcdaniel has been
striving ever since he has been in Ham
mond.
