Nor are arguments needed to con-
vince every teacher of the power of
organization in this day Of combna-
ton and concentration"
In speaking of the tendency to or
game Miss Haley says that the need
has been felt and is rapidly growing
in the large cities. But" she says,
teachers have been the last class to
organize effectively for the purpose OF
bettering their material conditions.
One of the greatest obstacles in the
way of such organization has been the
sentimental notion that teachers de-
grade themselves and their profession
by working Individually or collectively
for mere material advancement
"What is needed now is some demon
stration of the power of intelligent
well-directed organized effort among
teachers to convince teachers ano
others, not that organization is pro
fessional, but that through organiza.
