The pedagogue | with his pedantry must yield to the simple teacher with rich personal power. The vocation- ist must not be admitted with his cash value doctrine until the groundwork of an education has been laid. ‘Soft pedagogy’ must be displaced by a vigorous, self- directed learning process. The temporary, time serving teacher must go. The feminizing process, by which even male teachers lose their virility, should cease. Our watchword should be, profes- sional conduct.”— Atlantic Monthly. “Group consciousness or solid- arity is notably lacking among teachers. Women teachers fre- @)| quently avoid classification as teachers. In public places they try to give the impression that they are not teachers. School- teacher is accepted as a term of reproach. There is no group pride. Teaching is a temporary employment to them. It fills the marriageable interim be- tween normal school or college and matrimony. In that inter- im the attention is naturally fired on the main chance. Time devoted to professional reading is reduced to a minimum. Teaching is not a career, but a vestibule to a career.” Atlantic Monthly. “Has Jim come home from school yet, Mary?” “T think so, Ma’am,” said Mary. “The cat’s hiding in the cellar.” “I never saw a woman wasn’t curious.” “But I’m not the least bit “Then you are a_ curious woman.” Beatrice Wimer who has been out of school for some time on account of sickness has again resumed her studies. who SHAREHOLDER’S MEETING.
