THE greatest difficulty In Idaho Is to
keen a supply Of schoOlma'ams, said
tba Doctor "A large number Of com
pptent school teachers are imported
from the east every year, but about one
bolf Of them In some sections resign
when the school term Is half gone. They
dl moi resign on account of the salary
Cor school teachers are paid well In
Idaho Only few men will teach school,
as they find more profitable employ
Irent. But young ladies' receive $50 per
month In the country districts and from
$40 TO SS5 In the cities and towns for
teaching in the schools, a woman never
receives less than $50 a month for teachi
ing In a little school house in the coun-
try But the reason the supply of lady
teachers la always short Is because there
are ten men to one woman in Idaho No
sooner does a young woman begin
teaching young Ideas how to shoot than
Ten men attempt TO tell her how much
money they have, how many acres OF
land they own, how much bank stock
they hold, how pretty and winsome she
is how they love and adore her, and
well, before the young lady can antlcl-
nate, perhaps half dozen men have
popped the question and have asked her
10 marry forthwith. She generally ac'
cepts one OF these proposals, resigns as
teacher. and leaves the school room fol-
the hymeneal altar.
u will give an illustration that came
under my own observation. a charming
young lady, Miss Busch. came from
Iowa to teach In the public school at
Giyensville. Idaho. Before she was there
three months she was engaged to pro-
mnent man OF the town, and at the
close Of the school term they were mar
fltu litT slHtel Nttlllt " teach tll' oNHpbl
next year When the term was half over
this sister resigned and married, and
sent for another unmarried sister e
take her place as teacher. The third
Miss Busch taught In the school the lat
erhalt OF the term, but three days after
the term closed she was married TO o
bushes man OF the town.
Nov. that's the trouble school truD
tec has in trying to keep a supply Of lady
school teachers on hand. Some business
man or wealthy miner or ranchman
comes along and captures every one.
These ranchmen and miners may have
rough eXteriors and wear high-top boots
and SLOUGH hats, but they are handsome
anG strong. and many are graduates
from eastern colleges. And when they
begin to make love, n young lady's heart
IS sure TO be captured. st. Louis Globe
