Fishermen returning to Harstad from Bear Island sald they had seen a plane on June 1S—the day the Amundsen party started for Spits- bergen from Tromsoce. They as- serted it was flying very low and was about 24 miles northwest of Eear Island. The ministry of defense asked local authorities at Harstad to ques- tion the fishermen closely, It was thought possible that the men might have seen the Italian peaplune piloted by Major Maddalena who was flying along that route on the 18th, An Exchange Telegraph dispatch from Copenhagen said fog had blocked the efforts of three vessels searching around Bear Island for traces of Amundsen.

Willlam Rose George Westerman ially Invited the Covensat and Redemptive TEACHERS DEVOTE ' SUMMER TO STUDY Take Extension Courses to Quali- Iy for Higher Positions ich is work A portion of the public W not engaged in educational often wonders why a teacher, who appears to be well established in her profession, deems it necessary to take extension courses in universi- tes. This question is answered by Miss Louise Schmahl, dean of teachers a the New Britain State Normal | school, who says that after a teacher | has completed a year of work in the | classroom she has given practically {all that is in her and it is with a i desire to replace losses and to re- turn with new inspiration that she decides to take a summer course. Despite the fact that Miss Schmah! has been engaged in the teaching profession for many years, during which she has stored up great experience and has a thorough | knowledge of every branch of edu- cation, she feels that at the end ot the school year she has reached the | end of her resaurces. Se has enrolled at Colorado TUni- versity for a course. Practically every teacher at the Normal &chool and many teachers at the Senior high, Junior high, and clementary schools have enrolled in universities in this country or are planning tours of a educational nature this sum- mer. There is probably no other pro- fession with the possible exception | the | of medicine and law in which members continue study after he has once entered upon the Work. . In medicine many times a physician | | will enter a university for a time so | that he may become a specialist at some particular part of his work. A teacher in the elementary | grades has the opportunity of pro- | motion to a place in the Junior or Senior High school if she wins a degree at a university, a Junior High school teacher may bring jabout promotion to the Senior | High school through study in these | summer schools, but a Normal schoo teacher can only hope make herself a better asset to the Ischool by her study. to | QUESTIONS ANSWERED You can get an answer to any question of fact or information by writing to the Question Editor, New Britain Herald, Washington Bureau, 22 New York avenue, Washington. 1 D.
