Wed- nesday of this week over 300 teach- ers had applied for the position. many making personal application to Sec'y Wm. Fulton. The hot throt- days Mrs Fulton has been busy r-n- tertalnititr in the parlor, one car com- ink and another going, sometimes two or three cars with applicants, be- ing present at one time. A short little advt. in the Globe four days - Thursday to Monday, caused the deluge. It asked to state salary and qualifications and tlwsalar- ies asked ranged from 8550 to 8120“. A number of teachers with first class certificates and years of high school experience. have applied, and more applications will likely be forthcom- ing. With such a plethora of teachers. the ttrderation and minimum salary of $1000 is apparently a thing of the past. The outlook is that hundreds of Ontario teachers will be school- lem, and forced into other occupa- tions the coming year.' M Mills is Durham’s 1925 Tax Rate At Tuesday evening's session of Town Council, the main business was the striking ot the tax rate.

Electric Elothes Dryer a likely Hospital Convenience Dr. D. Jamlr-son, as a member of the Hospital Board, is in the city this week seeking Information as to modern electrical methods used in connection with the drying of cloth- es in the different hospitals. This special need has been felt for some time in Durham Hospital and to be independent of the weather man. is lolsteln a thing greatly to be desired when' it comes to clothes drying. The sys~ tem necessarily will run into money. but is only one of many suchlike conveniences that are required, and especially in the case of clothes washing which has to go on, rain or shine. and practically every day. i F Plans are also underway to change the position of the wards in the' building, making the men's ward to ithe rear, whereas it is now in the fore section.
