TRAINED TEACHERS
NEEDED FOR SCHOOLS
NEAR FOUNTAIN CITY

There is a dearth Of experienced
teachers in Wayne county, Superin.
tendent Williams said today. Doz-
ems Of teachers who hold licenses but
have never conducted a school room
under contract, are ready to step into
positions if the school authorities will
permit.
An effort is being made to bring
back to the county some of the teach.
ers who have left in the past two or
three years. Larger towns and high
er salaries drew from the county some
of the ambitious young teachers of ex-
perience who found the progress too
slow here.
While not officially decided on, it
is probable that higher salaries will be
the inducement to recall such expert
enced teachers as the school boards of
the towns and townships find neces-
sary to take charge of the schools.
Tomorrow the fifth monthly teach
ers' examination will be held in the
office Of County Superintendent Will
liams. The attendance will be from
forty to fifty, dropping from 100 in
the preceding four months.

INCLUDE CITY
IN GATHERING
TYPHOID DATA

A typhoid survey TO determine the
quantity and nature Of waste thrown
in tributaries OF the Ohio river and
to establish accurate charts Of the
amount Of typhoid fever caused by
poor water supplies, includes Rich
mond. Today DR.. H. F. Smith OF the
Cincinnati branch of the United
States Public Health Service and ].
A. Craven, sanitary engineer, open
ed their investigation in this city.
Although not entirely familiar with
local conditions, DR.. Smith said he
believed very small per cent OF the
typhoid fever cases in this city come
from poor water, Richmond receiving
its water supply from galleries situat-
ed from one to four miles from the
river.
DR.. Smith said after the work is
completed, figures fro mcities with
good water and milk supplies will be
charted and compared with figures
from an equal number OF cities with
poor water and milk supplies to show
the effect in the prevention OF typhoid
and the few kindred diseases.
Mr. Craven will make a sanitary
survey of the city. The sewer system.
the communicating influences situated
on the river, the condition of the
water galleries and similar questions
will be probed by the engineer.
Samples of water will be sent to Gin
cinrati where the biggest health sur
vey laboratory is located.
