Teachers and MatrimOpy.

CreSton Advertiser.
County Superintendent Peters in
talking with an Advertiser reporter
this afternoon said: "Out of the 10
teachers that were in our county
school two years agoi probably only
ninety five are teaching now. Where
have they gone? Well, large num-
Der are married, that's the fact in the
case. A large number, but of course
not all. The average life of a teacher,
as snch, is only about three years.
They teach and then they go at some
thing else. 1t is hard to keep the
bright girl in q school room. Some
young man comes along with a propo-
sition to place her in home and-off
she goes. But as one goes another
comes. There were nine applicants
for certificates last week. Eight from
the country and one from the city.
How many teachers will we loose this
spring? About forty, / should think.
No, they want all get married, but
most of them will.

d. p. Repass, who was County
Superintendent of this county for eight
years and who now is principal of the
Dexter Normal School, when in town
last week was talking to some of his
friends here about the movement for
new state normal schools. Mr.. Repass
is unusually we'll acquainted with the
condition OF the country schools and
with the needs of their teachers. He
is of the opinion that a strengthening
of the small normal schools over the
state at the county normals will bene-
fit the country teacher more than to
make more big state normals. He
contends that the average country
school teacher will not go away to the
big state normal as their wages will not
justify it, but if there are normal
school privileges i'll their own county,
or even in an adjoining one, they may
avail themselves of the advantage.
1t is the country school teachers that
need the improved advantages, as the
town and city schools are already
mostly taught by those having had
professional training.
