ALL PAY TOO Low.
Now, there is not the least disposi-
tion to criticise the Board of Educa-
tion in the matter of increasing the
pay of teachers, in cases where has
been an increase. The Board doubt
less had reason in every case for the
raise that was made. There are too
many low salaried teachers in the
department, and 1t is even safe to say
that NTH the increases that have boon
made the salaries are all too low, yet
Good pay alone will get and hold good
teachers-and there should be good
teachers in the public schools. But
the object of the Waterhouse resolu-
tion, which seems to have been to
raise the pay of the lowly paid, has
not been met. The Board has doubt
less done the best that it could, but
1t has not had the money.
There are in the Department of Edu-
cation, now. seventy-one teachers
whose pay is thirty dollars a month,
or less, and one who teaches for the
pittance of ten dollars a month. And
that is too little even for the poorest
kind of a teacher
