HANGCHOW NOTES

Trying Weather Conditions

From Our Own Correspondent, Hangchow, July 12.

The chief subject for discussion here at present is the weather, and really it is beyond speaking about and cannot be mentioned in simple language.

The Government _Educationalists are having a little spar just because schemes are being hatched to join some of the schools and reduce teachers and so reduce expense. It means throwing a number of principals and teachers out of employment and those who are likely to get the sack are kicking.

Those who were hurt or killed by the unskilled motor driving the Lin Yin route are all quiet in body and mind now, and we hear the cars are to run again on Saturday.

Text read from the printed page and cleaned; old type leaves the occasional error.
