FIRsT-CLAss TEACHERS.
Is Supervisor the Proper Thing for
County School Districts? a

Correspondence OF the Ledger
BENTON Cry, Nov. 30.-We are
informed that the people will be
called upon next spring TO vote on the
proposition to have county supervision
of schools. 1t is well for the people
to qualify themselves on this question
before the time comes to exercise the
right Of suffrage IL is said that 30
per cent. of our school fund is wasted
in various ways, principally in en-
ploying weak and inexperienced
teachers. We are told by experienced
teachers that 40 per cent. would be
nearer the figure. Is not our present
law sufficient to give usefflcientteach-
ers? In my opinion its honest admin
istration would do away with the
''weakn teacher. 1t goes without
question that imitation and mock
teaching are among the evils Of the
present day, AS school director the
writer has attended teachers assocfa-
tions and from his knowledge Of the
persons present, he readily found out
that many of those considered good in
methods" were notoriously weak in
practice. viii not the Imitation"
be increased by superyisonP Won't
such thing as individuality in the
teacher be a thing Of the pastP III
the teacher is an imitator now, how
will she be when she has superin-
tendent to visit her school and tell
her how she shall teach? l heard a
teacher say the other day that the
superintendent's duty was to encour-
age weak teachers by advising" with
them. The superintendent must have
more power than merely to advise
if he accomplishes results. Who
doubts this? The facts are that, the
superintendent, under the present
law, is an autocrat, as absolute in
his dominion as the Emperor OF Rus
sia. He has the power to issue GER
tificate without which the teacher
cannot teach. He has the power to
revoke them for reasons, the suffering
of which he is the sole Judge, and
from whose decision there is absolute
ly no appeal. See the law. Super
vision would undoubtedly be a benefit
should our autocrat be perfect man
But nothing human is perfect and We
might get a superintendent somewhat
short of perfection and who possesses
some of the frailties of man. But
if county supervision will give us
more professional teachers and better
teachers, then supervision is what
we want and let US have it, There Il
no profession Of more Importance K
the people than that Of the teacher
Yet there are school officers that thinl
''anybody can teach school," Thai
anybody can train the immortal
minds Of our boys and girls is the ide;
that does the harm. Some schoo
boards have this idea and county
supervision will not eradicate it,
fear. Let's hear from some professional
teachers in order that we may maxi
up our minds on this vital question.
