MARRIED
WOMEN TEACHERS

Editor Advertiser: Should the mar
ried women be allowed to teach in our
public schools? This question seems to
be taking up lot of the valuable time
of our legislators and from the merits
of the bill it seems that they might bet
ter be putting their time to some more
needed legislation. The promoters of
this bill have admitted that they were
aiming their efforts at the teachers
employed in the larger districts, first
of all, the district of Honolulu. There
fore let us confine ourselves to a few
figures for this district alone.
From the latest Report of the Su-
perintendent of Public Instruction. it
will be found that we have twenty
seven married women teaching in the
public schools of Honolulu. Of this
number, from fifteen to twenty are
wholly dependent upon themselves for
their support. In three or four cases,
the women have taken up teaching in
order to help make both ends meet.
In every instance but one, these mar
ried women hold first-class certificates
or better. For years, teaching has
been their life work. Must they now
be cast aside for the reason that in
one or two cases a woman is teaching
whose husband is earning a good SAL
airy? Must they be cast aside for the
simple crime of matrimony? Does
matrimony make them unfit? If so,
how many of the young lady teachers
of today will in the future hesitate at
getting married because, if ever ne
cessity demand that they again take
up school teaching, they must first, as
one of our senators suggested. 'get q
divorce? Last of all, the claim OF
our legislator is that the married wo-
man is keeping the single or unmar-
ried girl from holding a position on

woman we could not help admiring and

The March Of the Men Of Ia rlsch.r
In military music the march occupies
prominent position and has been
employed not only to stimulate cour-
age, but also from about the middle
Of the seventeenth century to insure
the orderly advance Of troops. One Of
the earliest instances Of rhythmicaI
march is the Welsh war strain. "The
March Of the Men OF Harlech,' which
Is supposed to have originated during
the siege Of Harlech castle in 146s.
In England the military march was
Of somewhat later development. Sir
John Hawkins in his History of Mu-
sic" tells us that its characteristic was
dignity and gravity, in which respect
1t differed greatly from the French.
which was brisk and alert, and apro-
pos Of this subject the same author
quotes witty reply of an Elizabethan
soldier to the French Marshal Biron's
remark that ''the English march, being
beaten by the drum. is slow, heavy
and sluggish" THAT may be true.r
he said, ''but slow as it is it has
traversed your masters country from
one end to the other" = Chambers
Journal.
