A few hours later he was followed

only:

AS to the result of this decisive turn
of affairs ON the part of the hard coal

predict with any measure of contain

There was strong belief, however,

ally. He has persuaded the Cunard
and other Transatlantic Iines to fur
nIsh passage for teachers at nominal
rates during the winter season. Be
tween November and March steam
ship accommodations for 500 will be
provided. Arrangements win be made
to care for teachers ON their arrival
here and to distribute them among
university centers. This Is form OF
educational reciprocity OF which there
have been numerous manifestations
in England within year. The inter
change Of visits between French and
British workingmen was phase of
1t, as as the fraternizing of schoolboys
from either side Of the channel. Very
recently French university fellows
were welcomed as the guests of the
University Of London. The institu-
tion of the Rhodes scholarships gave,
. great impetus to 1t. In sense the
Gosely plan Is an extension Of the
'sabbatical year" system under which
the more fortunately placed American
college instructors study abroad every
seventh year on full or half pay.
Such an exchange OF teachers be-
tween nations is bound to be produc-
tive Of heightened interest and in
creased efficiency. Why should not
the plan be adopted here? asks the
New York World. II similar induce
ments are held out to American teach
ers TO visit Europe for study and i'm
proving travel It IL likely that the
main dimculty would be to restrict
the number desiring to 60. It should
be feasible to secure like concessions

American teachers Of educational

would be inestimable. They could
visit the culture centers Of Europe at
