Monterey, Va, Friday, June ID 1906

With all due respect to the opln-
ion of "Justica," the action of tie
County School Board, at its last
meeting, was. from our view point,
wise and we'll considered. 1t was
an effort to deal with future con-
tingencies rather than relieve. to
any material extent, present condI-
lions. We haye been assured that
the members Of the Board acted
upon the following ideas and con-
victions:
The present rate will not admit
of an increase of salary, though the
pay is shamefully low; the increase
allowed 20 End grades was made
under the impression that many
firsts and professionals may be
classed lower under the new regu
latiOns.
As to the premium on normal
graduates: There are possibly two
in the county. The campaign is
on for better teachers and longer
terms. Highland will have to pro
vide the latter in order to get the
first. Not every educated" person
is qualified to teach, and an in.
centive to get young men and wo-
men to attend regular training
schools is certainly no mistake.
Here is the logical place from
which to expect the very best
teachers. When our home boys
and girls have acted upon this In
centive, it is to be hoped that the
finances will be so shaped as to ad-
NIT of still better remuneration.
and enable the school authorities to
deal with actual conditions, rather
than future contingencies.
True we have some "frsts' and
professionals" but we can do no
better by them now; the normal
graduates. we have not, but need
them, when we shall have gotten
them, and, then let merit be recog-
nized wherever found or however
attained.
Meantime, while it is said the
Board has several presidents IN this
matter of discrimination, there may
be serious doubt rs to the legality
Of it. Should the contention be
sustained that salaries are to be reg
ulated solely by the grade OF GER
tifcate, the purpose, even OF using
it as prompting force" would
fall short.
