Teachers Salaries Are Measre.

eaCnerS SaidFIeS are WSdSTC'
Teachers are poorly paid. This Is
the conclusion reached by the commit
tee on salaries OF the National Educa-
tional Association, appointed two years
ago, at the Boston meeting. This COM
mittee has collected statistics through
out the United States, and 1t has been
found that the average salary paid to
teachers in elementary schools is less
than that paid to street cleaners. II
must be remembered that the average
salary of teachers Is low largely be-
cause of the fact that the personnel OF
the teaching force is constantly chang
ing-new teachers with lower salaries
replacing teachers who have been IN
the service number Of years.
In comparing the salaries Of teachers
and street cleaners, it Is noted that the
former are on duty but six hours daily
for Sc weeks and the latter 10 hours
daily for so weeks. But the teachers
generally work more than six hours
day, and must live throughout the year
on the salary earned during 36 weeks
OF school.
The average salary Of teachers in 467
leading cities in elementary schools Is
s1,1e1 for men and $3.50 for women,
and in high schools 1903 for women
and s1,303 for men. In New York city
the minimum salary Of teachers Is $500
and that Of street cleaners s631. Bos-
ton pays teachers s552, and Its street
cleaners s603, while Philadelphia pays
its teachers s470, or s67 less than the
street cleaners. Teachers In San Fran
cisco receive $500 a year, but the street
cleaners are paid $3.50.

Mission Of Music.

Music boxes and blue light are two
Of the latest things in the line OF an
aesthetics. The music boxes do not
reduce pain OF render the patients In
sensible, but, according to Prof. Redard
of Geneva, they do take away certain
i'll effects that often accompany the
use Of araesthetics. It Is a well-known
fact that external impressions received
during the period Of somnolence have
great bearing on the dreams. From
this Prot. Redard conceived the idea
of utilizing music. 1t was found that
the music had a tendency to take away
the disagreeable excttation previous to
the use of the chloroform or other an
aesthetic. The awakening was also
found to be free from excitement

war have practically. transformed the
Pacific coast states, making in period
Of ten years change almost as sweep

ter the discovery Of gold half a century
ago.
Ten years ago the population Of San
Francisco was 5000; it is now 450.-
900. Ten years ago the population Of
Portland where tie exhibition Is being

Ten years ago the population OF Se-
