Pamphlet of Information for Cuban Teachers.

An interesting pamphlet has recently been published for the guidance of the Cuban teachers who are coming to Cambridge this summer. It is printed in English and Spanish by the order of the military governor of Cuba.

Among other things the pamphlet states that one of the five transports which will bring the 1450 teachers to Boston will be given up entirely to women. Leaving Cuba about June 26, they will arrive about July 1, after which the teachers will at once be brought to their rooms in Cambridge. Every effort will be made to secure comfort on the transport ships, and special decks are to be fitted up for the accommodation, of the men in the party.

Before leaving the island, the teachers will divide themselves into groups as much as possible, each group being made up of friends and headed by an encargada or chaperon. This system is expected to add greatly to the health and comfort of the teachers and will simplify the arrangements for caring for them. During the summer the same salaries will be paid to the teachers as if they had remained in Cuba; and at the same time it is probable that the individual expenses will be very small. An emergency fund will be formed by contribution of each member of the party, to meet incidental travelling expenses; but in no case is a teacher to pay more than ten dollars for this purpose. Minute directions are given about suitable clothing, with an injunction not to buy anything which can not be worn upon return to Cuba. Medical assistance will be amply provided by five native physicians as well as American doctors; and no person will be allowed to leave the island without a certificate of health. This can only be obtained on condition that the applicant shall be vaccinated by a physician appointed for that purpose, except in cases where proof of previous vaccination can be shown.
