AT meeting of the Newark School
Principals Association one day last
week one of the speakers said in part
1.-THE time is coming when the male
teacher in our public schools will be
considered an extinct species. Go in
to the High School and you will find
sixty per cent. of the scholars are girls.
The tendency seems to be to hand over
the higher culture OF the nation to the
women. The same thing is true in
religion and in the world of books.

females and the majority of the readers
at our libraries are women. The great
bulk of the devotees to art are women.
The future high culture of this nation
promises to be shaped by female in
fiuence."
