The cost of living in now much greater than before the war.

Many good teacher will remain in the services of the hcIiooIh In the face of temptation of larger pay elsewhere, but we cannot hope to kpep the schools up to their lull efficiency without a largo increase, in all probability, in hcIiooI revenneH.
