SHORTAGE OF TEACHERS
 HITS STATE BOARD

The state board of education at it's monthly meeting held at the capitol Hartford Tuesday, considered the shortage of teachers throughout the state, and it was announced that a campaign is to be waged to have more young women enter the normal schools. So much has been said dur ing the past few months regarding the low pay being received by teachers. that young women are not anxious to devote their lives to a work that is not so remuneratlve as other lines of endeaVor.
 Walter D. Hood. principal of the Gilbert school in Winsted, and a mem Der of the board, acted as secretary during the absence of Charles D. Hine, who is ill. Mir. Hood said that it was no secret that the scarcity of school teachers is causing grave concern in Connecticut. and that he had heard although not from an official source that several small town schools have had to get along with instructors who were not up to the standard.
 Following the session of the board the committee on normal schools held a meeting, at which plans were dis cussed for building of a normal school in New Britain, to replace the one already there. The present nor nal school is in the heart of the citz and at the last session of the Iegis- lature, an appropriation was made fo, additional land. None could be pur. chased near the present school build. Ing, so the board purchased land if another section, and will ask for ar appropriation from the next legisla ture to build another school building When this is done. the present schoo will be sold.

 The testimony given at the hearing brought out the fact that the claim ant first experienced thouble with his , eyes in the summer of 1918. at which time he. with two other employees, were painting the sashes on Storrs hall. He continued at work how ever. for about two weeks, which was rtIuired to finish that particu- lar piece of work and then had out side work where the sun did not strike the work so brightly and ex- i periences no special difficulty from that time up to June 1919, when he was obliged to give up work Claim ant testified that he had done no | work since Dec. 31, the date of his 1 last operation.
 1 It is found that the claimant was l suffering from strabismus, a condi- l dition of muscular weakness of the
 eye balls, caused by severe eye
 strain. The eye specialist testified l that this condition was caused by the i severe strain which the claimant
 eyes were subjected to by painting on the outside of the green house on ac- 1 count of the glare of light under
 which he worked.
 The claimant is still under the treatment of this eye specialist an6 1 while the left eye is now in very good condition, it is impossible for him tC | focus objects at the present time or
 account of the weak muscular condi- l tion of the other eye and so in order
 to correct this trouble an advance ment must be done on the interna
 rectus muscle of the right eye, whicl is the operation sought by the claim ant at this time.
 It is found that the operation is nee
 essary at this time and that furthe
 operations may be required from tim
 to time according to the opinion of tn
 attending eye specialist and it i
 found that the claimant is entitled to same as well as reimbursement
 for medical bills incurred and pai, by him since the date of his injury ol
 June 2. 1919. From the evidence it i l also found that the claimant is en titled to compensation at the rate O . $13.50 per week covering the vari ous periods of disability already ex isting because of the original iniur
