Difficult to get
Sufficient Teachers

Owing to the unprecedented de-
mands by the government for both
men and women for the civil service.
resulting from the war. difficulty is
being experienced all over the coun-
try in obtaining an adequate supply
OF teachers for the public schools
This scarcity has. to some extent.
been felt in Colorado. although not
to the same degree. perhaps. ms In
some other states of the Union for
the reason that many teachers prefer
the West over other sections Of the
land. There is a shortage OF 10000
teachers this year. according to the
national commissioner of education.
Some trouble has been experienced
on this score in Fremont county and
IL was only by much search and per.
sussion that enough instructors could
be secured to fill the positions. II
Is hard matter to find supplies, and
the resignation OF teachers TO enter
other employments create vacancies
that are not easily filled. The condi-
tion is one for which there has been
no parallel in many years Miss
Garwood. county superintendent stated
a day or two ago that there were at
least two schools in the county for
which no teachers had yet been OBJ
tanned and that another school. which
was confronted with the necessity of
increasing its teaching corps TO meet
an enlarged attendance OF pupils.
could not find instructors.

Denver Man
Shot, Taken
For Bandits

Colorado Springs. Sept. 19-Mis-
taken for a bandit party. because the
lights on their Ford went out when
they were ordered to stop near the
Myron Stratton home. three Denver
men had an exciting experience and a
narrow escape Monday night. One
OF them. c. p. Meltabarger. received
> painful bullet wound in his chin and
neck and right shoulder. while w. p.
Carstarphen. a Denver electrical en-
gineer. had his left ear grazed by q
bullet. Horace Hull. also OF Denver.
who was driving the car, was not
touched.
According to the Denver men they
had been stopped before. when they
got on the Pueblo road by mistake. on
their way to Canon City They
were warned then by posses to be
carefssi and stop when ordered to do
SO. They claim that when they saw
the signals near the Stratton home
that they drove up slowly to where
the watchmen were. There their lights
went low and somebody in the posse
accidentally fired his gun. This
started others to shoot at range of
rs feet.
I'VE yelled at the men to fnd out
what they wanted" Meltabareer
stated. and they made us get out, keep
our hands up all The time. even after
we had established our identity. They
claimed that some one in the car shot.
but the guns we had for duck shoot
ing had not even been taken out OF
their cases. as the police established
later"
Meltabarger was taken to the STRAIT
ton home where DIR. f. j. Brady
dresesed his wounds, which are not
serious. The bullet. high-powered
rife one, tore through the metal cas-
ing of the windshield directely in
front. An inch lower or to either size
would have killed at least one man
The three Denver men were en-
route to New Mexico and were going
to Salida via Canon City. they say.
