As to length of service, one hundred and fifty thousand serve in the schools only two years or less; three hundred thousand serve in the schools not more than four or five years. As to education, thirtv thousand have had no education beyond the 8th grade; one hundred thousand have had less than two years education beyond the eighth grade; two hundred thousand have had less than four years beyond the 8th grade. As to professional pre- paration, three hundred thous- and have had no special profes- sional preparation for the work of teaching.” FOR SALE—Pure bred Ply- mouth cockrels.
