SCHOOL BOARD 1S SEEKING TO ASSIST Is Advertising for Rooms for Teachers Next Year So serious is the situation in this city regarding the lack of suitable living quarters for the school teachers that the school board has seen fit to advertise in the daily papers in an effort to get into communication with private families about the city who might be willing to board members of the teaching staff. action was taken by the board when apprised of the real conditions. A special committee of the Teach- This unusual ers’ Council on *“Housing Conditions and Social Welfare of Teachers,” h had charge of investigating the mat ter and interesting facts have been brought out concerning the way many teachers live. i This committee sent a questionnaire to every teacher in the local schools. The questions were whether or not the teacher lived at home, what the con- ditions of her room were, what ac- commodations she had at home, and various other questions. The replies to these questionnaires showed that there are 176 teachers who live at home, while 106 teachers are obliged to scourc places to live taroughout the city. Of the 106, there were 70 who reported desirable rooms, 68 with rooms comfortably heated, 86 with rooms properly | lighted, and 87 with hot water privi- leges. There were 61 who reported they would like to live with a private family, 40 who would like small housekeeping apartments. Fifty-three stated they would enjoy use of a club house if such were available. Many | teachers reported paying $3.00, $3.50, | $4.00, $4.50 and even $5.00 per week for room, a price they all reported as exceptionally high. Many of the teachers are wonder- ing what they will do for rooms next vear as the people in charge would keep ther rooms only on payment of room rent for the summer months. | Several teachers have suffered priva- tons through lack of heating, light- ing and accommodations. Suggestions were offered that someone see that a professional hotel or clubhouse is erected or that the city should erect some neat apartment houses wherein the teachers could live. Two ways seemed left to the | committee in which to better con- dition: They are to establish a pro- | fessio and business woman's club and to request the school board to see that enouzh is done to secure good | comfortable guarters.
