: labor. Many persons who hav
had no experience in the teach
ing line seem to think that an,
common school teacher who's
wages are from $25 to $40 pc
month ought to make an indie
pendent fortune in a short time
Let such a one stop and conside
what is expected of a teacher
In the first place she is expected
to be well dressed at all times
which is no small item of ex
pense. She is expected to bu,
lall the latest books and subscrib,
for all the popular educationa
journals of the day; attene
teachers meetings whenever
and wherever held, and to spene
from 3to S weeks at an institute
during her short vacation. AL
these requirements are attended
by no small expense, and the
teachers who comply with then
will find at the close of the veal
that they have a very small por.
ton of their earnings to lay ur
for a rainy day."
Dc not understand from the
above assertions that such re.
qulrementS are useless. But
when it has become almost abso-
lutely necessary for a teacher to
attend all such meetings as those
who have supervision over them
shall appoint; it. should be also
required of the board of educa-
ton and directors that they pay
their teachers such wages as will
enable them to attend and have
enough of their earnings left to
last them until school term be-
gins again.
