In those times there were no unqualified teachers. In principle "juf" is short for Juffrouw equivalent to "Miss". When Juf or the male teacher went on Homeleave, lessons were given by qualified Wives of employees.
As it was a small community, these ladies were known as Missis (Mevrouw) So and So. Then suddenly calling them Juf would sound awkward.
