Work As Service Station
Lucrative Than Teaching

"Amen," said Almond, 30, .who
also has a M.A.
Interviewed during a lull in
business at the Prospect Service
station here, they said other
teachers who can't make ends
meet might do well to consider
taking the same step.
Hough was earning between
$74 and $80 a week when he
told McClelland Grammar school
authorities last year they would
have to find somebody else to
teach their fifth grade.
Needed Part-Time Work
"It was just too much trying
to support a wife and three
growing boys on that salary,"
he said. "I had to do so much
part-time work I was never
home to enjoy my family."
When Hough leased the ser
vice station Almond decided to
make a break too. The father
of three children, he quit his
job as instructor in handicrafts
at a junior high school and join
ed Hough as station manager."
Both had been earning $3700
for teaching 10 months out of the
year. They figure their income
this year will hit about $6000
each. They work anywhere from
five to 14 hours a day, "depend
ing on how busy we are."

sociation has estimated the av
erage public school teacher in
the state gets $4500 a year. Last
year, spurred by reports many
teachers were leaving New Jer
sey for more lucrative salaries
elsewhere, the legislature raised
the minimum . starting wage for
teachers from $2500 to $3000.
Too Much To Ask
"It's too much to ask us to
work for money like that no
matter how much 'we love tea
ching," Hough said. "Walt had
taught for seven years and I had
taught for five before we de
cided to quit."
- "It was a tough decision to
make. You- have to believe in
yourself completely to make a
change like we did. But it's a
real challange.
"Anyone who is making the
kind of money 'we were and has
similar financial obligations cer
tainly should review their lives
and think about taking the same
kind of step."
Hough appears as a speaker
before civic organizations from
time to time, arguing on behalf
of higher salaries for teachers.
Otherwise his teaching career
is behind him.
"We both miss the intellectu
al contacts we had in the teach
ing profession, but we've met
some pretty nice people in this
business, too," Hough said. "It's
pretty hard work at times, but
we're darned happy to be doing
it."
