Just here, I want to pay my re- spects to that much-maligned instl- tution, the flapper. A wonderful creature she is, to my way of think- ing, astonishingly capable, clear- thinking and direct; a young person who knows just what she wants and goes right out for it; who is as charm- ing when she pours tea as she ix quick - seeing and unerring on the basket- hall field; who thinks far less of boys than Hartley Manners would have us believe she does, who unerringly judges plays, books, movies, people, and who demands from each only the most real, rejecting Instantly every- thing else.

I would advise the beginner to get her first experience outside of New York City if possible, A girl coming fresh from normal school or colle is more or less dazed by the responsi - bilities of a new life; she needs to feel her way along.

After a girl has demonstrated to hersel/ that she can mantain it, her confi- dence is established. And once sh» has this control over herself and her class, she is in time worth any price she chooses to put upon herself. The question of teachers’ salaries has been well aired in the past few years, but {t seems to me that the pay of the teacher who has ‘arrived’ compares very favorably with that of the woman in any othet profession or art, for never forget that teachinx is indeed an art. The war gave dig- nity to the profession, for during that period salaries were very generally increased to accord with the higher cost of living. ‘They have not fallen, nor will they, I think, to the pre war standard. The girl of ability ani effective personality was never #0 much in demand and no apologies need be, made for the salary she will receive {f she makes good. ainly the teacher has an en viably close contact with many of the good things of life.

The older the pupils the more they de mand of interest, and, without mean ing to be impolite, they indicate at once if interest is lacking. This is perhaps that element of « teacher's life that encourages the gen eral belief that it is intensely fatigu ing. Personally, I think that if « woman with a good physique am! a sound mind is habitually all tire: out at the end of a day, there is some- thing wrong with her teaching.
