A number of the teachers who filled the vacancies during the war did not intend to teach except dur ing that period. Others who left the school room for war jobs have found larger salaries in other fields and do not plan to return. With the low salary scale for teachers, Mr. Messer is much alarmed at the slow manner in which the vacancies are being filled, and feels that unless there is some boost in salaries that the problem will continue to be of in creasing gravity not only here hut throughout North Carolina. Vacancies by schools are as fol lows: Fines Creek 2, Crabtree 2: Clyde 4; Waynesville high and Junior high 3: Haelwood 2; Rock Mill 2, and Lake Junaluska I: licthel 7. The total allotment for teachers for the Waynesville district for the coming year made by the state is for (i( elementary teachers, and 17 high school teachers with one gained in the elementary schools and three gained in the high school. In the Mt. Sterling school one teacher was gained and one lost: in Fines Creek there is an allot ment of 11 elementary and four high school teachers, with a loss of one elementary teacher and a gain of one high school teacher; in Clyde school the allotment is for 13 elementary and four high school teachers, the same as last year. In the Crabtree school there were 10 teachers allotted for the elementary school and four for I he high school with one gained in the latter: in the Bethel school the allotment calls for 27 elementary and eight high school teachers with a gain of two teachers in the high school.
