'Genoa School Will Get Money That it Needs Commissioner Valentine Favors In- crease in Appropriations, Making w it Institution of First Class, ) (From a Btaff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 21.—(Special Telegram.)—Commissioner Valentine of the Indian service, at a meeting of the Indian Affairs committee of the senate Saturday conceded that Genoa was one of the best schools In the country and should be maintained. He advised the committes that the school should have $2,600 for re- puirs, instead of $1,00 as carried in the house bill. He also favored Senator Burk- ett's amendment for the ereotion of a superintendent's cottage to cost $4,500, ad- ditional quarters for help at a cost of §7,600, | and enlarged shop bulldings to cost $4,000 Thése amendments wers agreed upon. This is an increase over the house bill of 17,600 for the Genoa sechool, which makes it,dn the opinion of those who have fol- od the appropriations for Indlan schools, oné of the most favored in the country. Instead of being abandoned, as originally contempimted, under the new arrangement it s deslined to become an Indian school of first importance.

Rog- ers' papers on “What Is Wrong With Owr Public Schools?’ in Lippincott's Magazine Is devoted to the teachers, the problems of the profession and the compensation, leading up to an appeal for old age pen- slons for educators. Mr. Rogers says, in par Consider the emoluments of the average teacher. Our annual expenditure for edu- cational purposes, public and private, ls about $500,000,00, making liberal allowance for possible defects in statistics. This fig- ures out at about $25 per capita for those merely enrolled; or about 330 for the aver- age scholar who goes with any degree of regularity. But only $850,000000 is ex- pended for public school purposes, which means about $20 yearly for each person enrolled. Of this sum about one-fifth s expended for buildings, sites, etc., another fifth for miscellaneous purposes and three-fifths for ‘teachers' salaries—about ~'§210,000,000 per vear. This is a trifle more than $400 per annum for each teacher, male or female. It Is of common knowledge that teachers in the higher schools, and all men, get bet- ter salarfes than the four-fifths of the total who are largely women teachers in the grades. It is a fair estimate that the average salary for women Is from $300 to $37% a year. It 1s more than this in the clties and less in the villages and rural distriots. This sum is less than that paid good do- mestic servants in the larger cities of the country, where upwards of $§ a week Is glven to cooks and housemalds, who also have perquisites which increase their in- come and lessen thelr expenses. The teach- er's salary {s about what the ordinary shop girl gets at the beginning of her carcer. It is less than many girls make in mills and factorle Judged from a bread and butter standard, the young woman who is solely coneerned with making a living might as well pre- pare herself for house service as for teach- ing. But, of oourse, this is no criterion, since women have other motives In life. The evident fact is that few women start out with the slightest notion of making 4 permanent profession of teaching. It Is true that about 40,000 of them annually at- tend the normal school to prepare for teaching, but to themit is a means and not an end, or, rather, it is only a means to an end, Many 4 woman who starts out to teach does 80 with the object of seclring enough moneey to dress well, and to provide a modest trousseau when the opportunity of marrying is offered her. This motive must influence many of the 40,000 young women Who go to normal schdols each year. Others have no desire to teach, but go to one of its chief duties to keep In close | touch with the state system of public | education and to render a valuable service | by sending out annually a large number of graduates fitted for the positions of teachers 1a the high schools or superin- tendents of city schools. “By ‘adopting as early as 1§70 the plan {of recelving to its classes -without exami- nation the graduates of accredited high schools which had been visited by univer- sity professors it came into most intimate what would ordinarily grace the pages of |24 fruitful relations with the schools. | Whatever criticisms may be made upon the magnzine pdblished under the above ! '3 | that plan either In theory or In. prac- | tical execution, it in many respects cannot be denled that 1t has been of great help both to the university and to the schools, especlally In bringing them into closer connection with each other. This is 80 obvious that what is known as the Michigan plan has in Its substantial fea- tures been adopted all over the west and to a large extent in the east. “One of the many important results to us is that it has tended to turn the at- tention of Michigan high schools and to a considerable number of the high schools of other states to this university for their supply of teachers and superintendents. The draft on us has been so great that of late years some 200 have been annually called from here to positions of consider- able importance. “The professor of education and his as- | sistants are made by the literary facuity & committea of appointment to select teachers with due regard to their adapta- tlon to particular places. 8o muchy con- fidengs s placed in this committep by school boards that they often accépt a teacher recommended by the committee witout further inquiry.” In the annual report of George S, Baker, troasurer of the University of ‘Michigan, submitted to the regenfs at thelr Novem- ber meeting, it appears that the actual income of the. uplyersity from July 1, 1908, to June 30, 1909, was about $1300,000.

Three prizes amounting to $100 have been offered by John Clay of Chicago for the best articles written by students in the | College of Agriculture of the University of { Wisconsin on topics rélating to the live, | stock Industry of the state. The competi- |tion was established for the purpose of stimulating interest in agricultural jours nalism. There Is already a large agricul- | tural press club, composed of students of journalism In the agricuitural college.

Mr. Hardenberg's education in Holland, with his consequent thorough acquaintance with the Duteh peo- | ple and language, fit him especially for his new position. 3 Over 1,600 men, women and boys regls- | tered in the brief courses for farmers, thelr | wives and daughters, dairymen and boys | at the College of Agriguiture last week, Over 300 more farmers were enrolled this | | year than for any previous course, and | | when the separate short courses conducted | at the county agricultural school are In- | | cluded, it is estimated that the influence these schools for the higher education at|of the university agricultural departments & low price.

Accurate statistios are not available, but it appears that for women five years is about the average form of service In the schools, 8o that we have almost & complete change in that perlod, which sugurs Wl for the youth of the land. And yet, under the ex- isting conditions, It 18 not aston- ishing that 0 many young women enter the service and remain so long? In an ideal state there wouid be few women outside the elementary grades and the secondary schools for girls and those who rewarded and ard, * * ¢ The time will never eome when women are not needed in the schools. They ought &lways to have charge of the very young, and In all grades there must needs be some. In secondary schools for girls, es- peclally, women are indispeusible. And the time is coming when the word “teacher’” will no longer be considered a feminine noun. Beyond the age of 12, all boys and most girls must be instructed most largely by men who are devoting their lives to education and are especlally equipped for the service, * ¢ ¢ The men who enter upon teaching in the have @& higher stand- thuslasm are woefully few. Most of them drift into the work by aecldent, or because they have nothing else to do, and they get out of it as s0on as possible. This is natural since the rewards are few and the exao- teaching, from which they cannot escape even If they so dealre. They have given too many hostages to fortune.
