ness on Decrease Among
School Children

Naugatuck, Dew. 22-Harold =.
Chittenden, superintendent Of
schools, announced absences OF
school children due to illness de-
creased considerably. Most Of these
absences were believed to have been
cases of severe colds, and with
the decrease of missing children
indications are that the epidemic Of
colds is on the wane.
Children were not alone In their
absences as IL teachers at one time
from the various schools were also
out. Substitutes for most Of them
were found. This year the substi-
tute shortage is a big problem:
tt ere are very few teachers avail
able for high school substitutes. and
the list for grammar school work
is not very large, Mr.. Chittenden
announced. 1t is virtually impos-
sible to get substitutes for some
of the specialized positions in the
high school.
