SUPERINTENDENT SMALL
ON THE PROBLEM OF SCHOOL
 RIGHTS

Interesting Address at Wo6lsey Hall Yesterday-Rights of Public Pupils and Teachers outlined---Gives Reasons Why Teachers Should Dnnce-AIsO Tells About the Various Kinds of Pupils Met With.
 walter H. Small of Providence, R. T., read paper on the Problem of School Rights" at the general meeting of the American institute for instruction at Woolsey hall yesterday, MT. Small spoke as follows:
 W, H. Small, Providence, R. I.
 When 8 ship leaves port for voy- age across either ocean the last point of land is taken as the point of de- parture from which the casting or westing of her course is reckoned. It is necessary in public school matters that a point of departure should be es- tablished from time to time from which supports the schools, the chill dren reckoned. To my mind that point is the recognition of the rights of all parties involved in the school policy, the public which supports the schools, the children who form the raw mate- rial, and the teachers who turn out the more or less finished product Soon after Dorchester established her free public school, it was discovered that these three inter-related parties had rights which demanded adjustment, and among the duties imposed upon the wardens in 1645 was this, to judge of and end any differences that might arise between master and schol- ars or their parents" Failure to re- cognize these rights has been the saurce of most school troubles during the two hundred and siXty-one years since that fact was discovered. As the time allowed for this discussion is short, shall present these rights as a series of propositions without any very extensive demonstration.
 THE RIGHTS OF THE PUBLIC.
 
 First The public has the right to re- ceive for every dollar invested dol lars worth of return in buildings, in equipment In service, in mental and moral development of the boys and girls whom they educate for future citizenship.
 Second, The public has the right that its schools in time and tendency shall conform reasonably to it's local condi- tions and demands, as measured by the consensus of public opinion. Eve ny live teacher or school official has ir mind an ideal school which grows out of the real, but this ideal school should not be pushed too rapidly tc the front. Public opoiion will not keeI pace with it. The real school is al ways a little in advance.
 Third. It has the right to demand

COULD NOT REST
 NIGHT OR DAY
With Irritating Skin HumOr-WhOIe Body Affected Scalp ltched All the Time and Hair Began to Fall Wonderful Result From
APPLICATION OF
 CUTICURA REMEDIES

"I am never without Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment since I tried them last summer. About the latter part of July my whole body began to itch. 1 did not take much notice of it at first, but it began to get worse all the time, and then 1 began to get uneasy and tried all kinds of baths and other remedies that were recommended for skin humors; but ] became worse all the time. My hair began to fall out and my scalp itched all the tiEae. Espe- cially at night, just as soon as l would get in bed and get warm, my whole body would begin to itch and my finger nails would keep it irritated, and it was not long before could not rest night or day. A friend asked me to try the Cuticura Remedies, and did, and the first appli- cation helped me wonderfully. For about four weeks 1 would take a hot bath every night and then apply the Cuticura Ointment to my whole body; and 1 kept getting better, and by the time used four boxes of Cuticura l was entirely cured, and my hair stopped falling out, but 1 continue to use the Cuticura on my scalp. It keeps all dan- druff out and scalp is always clean. l always use Cuticura Ointment on my face after shaving, and have found nothing to equal it. will never be without it." DE. Blankenship,

 YOUR RIGHTS AS TEACHERS.
 First-It is your right to receive courteouns treatment from the public, in the press, In public speech, in the home before the children. It is your right to insist on this courtesy when parent visits your school, if you have been courteous.

 Second-It is your right to receive from your pupils prompt and regular attendance, cheerful obedience, earnest effort in school work, respect for the rights of others, proper recognition of ,, your position and authority.
 Third-It is your right to have some originality in your work, to think for yourselves and to have reasonable freedom for trying your thinking We hear much about developing the | individuality of the pupil; why not the Individuality of the teachers? It IS your incentive to growth and action.
 Fourth-It is your right not to be over supervised, to have your strong work praised, and your weak work criticised in a kindly, helpful spirit, to a fair statement of your opinions and l beliefs.
 Fifth-It is your right to have the best possible training from your su- perintendent; it is his duty to instruct, to help to uplift, not to "boss" and dismiss. One hundred thousand new teachers are needed yearly in this country; only about twenty-five thou sand are annually trained, and the su- Iperintendent must rrain the other three-fourths.
