TEACHERS WILL
TOUR AMERICA
En- sIish Instructors TO ViSi.
Our Shores in Search OF
knowledge

Interest among the teachers Of public
schools Of this city has been aroused
by the proposed visit of the English
school teachers who viii make a tour
OF this country for the purpose Of in
speoting our schools and methods.
The English teachers are being sent
by Mr.. Alfred Mosely who was
close friend of Cecil Rhodes. Mr..
Mosely has sent two other delegations
to this country the committee Of rep
resentative laboring men and students
and distinguished company of British
edueationalists. A comprehensive
article on the proposed visit OF the
English teachers is written by Prof
Michael Murray Butler, of Columbia
University. in the American Monthly
Review of Reviews. The article in
part follows:
Early in the month of November a
company of 500 British teachers will
reach the United States for the purpose
Of studying carefully and in detail some
specific educational undertaking or
problem. From November until March
next these visitors will continue to ar
r4ve and they will distribute Them
selves over the United States, seeking
school systems, institutions and under
takings of various kinds for particular
examination. Some will concentrate
their attention upon problems Of adj
ministration. others will study the
elementary school, it's problems and its
influence. still others will study sec
ondary education and its relations to
elementary education on one hand ard
to the demands of practical life on the
other. The methods followed here in
the training Of teachers and the meas
ufe of success which has followed the
/ Introduction Of manual industrial and
techinal training viii also be subjects
4 of special inquiry 1t is Mr.. Moselys
hope that the information SO gained
hy the visiting teachers will be made
practically useful IN the communitie.

.that in this way centers Of educationa

/ Of schools and school systems will bl
/ established all over England Scotland
/ Ireland and Wales.
The great desire on the part OF tn
English school teachers to visit here
is shown by the following:
While but 500 teachers can be pro-
vided for, applications reaching into
thousands have been received by Mr
Mosely from those who wish to max
use of this opportunity Mr.. Mosel,
has wisely thrown upon the local edu
cation authorities in Great Britain tn
responsibility of selecting from thi
large list Of applicants the names o
those who are to make the journey. Il
most cases these local education
authorities are nominating the teachers
who are to come to the United States
and are granting them leave for IN
purpose. Some Of the visitors vii
remain one month, some two months
and some even longer.
The article concludes with the follow
ing:
To Americans, and particularly e
American teachers. there is offered op
portunity for a display Of America
hospitality and friendliness. and ais
an opportunity to learn from the Wis
itors at first hand and in detail of IN
mighty educational movement which Il
now under way in England.

awoke one morning TO find her hall

these letters offered to sell her cat
others offered a horse. others dog
and so on.
while she was realing few of the
letters, the bell rang, and in came a
chimney sweep with six boy helpers.
She tried to tell the man her chimneys
needed no attention, and there was
another ring at the bell and another
detachment of sweeps crowded in In
fact. from till 10 o'clock that morn
ing, no less than 100 chimney sweeps
arrived with all their apparatus.
AT 10 sharp. coal wagons began to
come. Up Berners street and down
Berners street they came, blocking one
another, locking wheels. all making for
the one house. From 10 till II Berners
street was a pandemonium of great
