PERSONALITY OF TEACHERS.
Scholarship Not the Only Thing to
BE Considered.

Personality counts as an asset
In the case Of teacher; scholarship
is important, but 1t Is not the only
thing to be considered comments
, the manager of large and success
full agency for teachers. What type
of woman makes the best teacher Is
a pertinent question: she continues.
is 1t the brilliant student, who takes
all the honors IN college, and to
whom knowledge comes almost with
out effort; or is 1t the mediocre stu
dent, who works hard for what she
gets and believes that life Is one
long grind; or is 1t the one who is
conscientious, who tries to do the
best she, can with the ability she
possesses, and who feels hat life Is
not one-sided affair, but that all
sides of the person should be de-
yeloped--the physical, the intellectu-
al and the spiritual? rhe answer
in general, would be that the last
type of woman is likely TO be the
most successful
We all admire those who have
billiancy of intellect; but we some
times find that certain characteristics
go with 1t which. to degree, limit
the power of the person. The bril-
liant student does not always make
the best teacher first, because she
learns so easily herself that she can
not understand the difficulties with
which the ordinary student has to
contend, and therefore she may lack
patience; second, she is so receptive
to knowledge that she canhot always
impart easily what she herself
knows; third, she thinks so much
about the intellectual that she ne
elects often to develop the social
side, and therefore lacks the power
OF adaptation, so necessary to those
who have to earn their own living.
Scholarship should not be I'M
dervalued in the slightest degree.
but with 1t should be combined
other essential qualities. For In
stance, when we meet a person for
the first time we generally Judge him
by his external rather than by his
intellectual qualities. Otherwise ex-
cellent candidates for teachers are
often handicapped by some one thing
which might be easily remedied-
a carelessness in dress. an unpleasant
voice, a lack of self-confidence, or
some mannerism. Every school
superintendent feels the advantage
of placing in his schoolrooms we'll
poised, tastefully dressed and pleas
ant voiced teachers. On account of
the close association with the stu
dents-and this is especially true In
private schools-the teachers must
needs have in as high a degree as
possible that browning quality of any
woman, an attractive personality.
Now, the question as to what is
meant by personality 1t is certain
ly not beauty; rather, personality is
the sum total of a persons inner
and outer qualities. Self-centred-
ness shows itself in self-consciousness
and the lack of self-confidence. On
the other hand, a person who has a
love for humanity and an interest
and sympathy for others will have
more confidence in her own ability.
If she has tried to make the most of
herself physically as well as mental
ly, she cannot fall to have an at
tractive personality. The woman
who has good health, determination
and love for the work will most
certainly succeed as a teacher"

EDWARDS NEW ADVISERS.
Official Announcement Made Of the
Changes In British Cabinet.

Official Announcement Made of the
Changes In British Cabinet.
London, April 13.-Official announce
ment was made Of the new cabinet ap,
pointments. They are as follows:
Herbert H. Asquith, prime minister
and first lord of the treasury.
David Lloyd George, chancellor OF
the exchequer.
Lord Tweedmouth, president Of the
council.
Earl of Crewe, secretary of state for
the colonies.
Reginald McKenna, first lord of the
admiralty.
Winston Spencer Churchill, president
of the board of trade.
Walter Runciman. president of the
board Of education.
John Morley, secretary Of state for
India, and Sir Henry H. Fowler, chan
cellor of the duchy of Lancaster, have
been made peers, but retain their pres
ent Offices.
Colonel ]. Il. Seeley has been appoint
ed undersecretary for the colonies;
Lord Lucas, parliamentary secretary,
war ONCE; r. d. Aeland, financial sec
rotary, war office, and Thomas r.
Buchanan, parliamentary secretary, In
dia Office. -
Having been fully anticipated in
well informed political quarters, the
few changes which Mr.. Asquith made
in the old Campbell Bannerman cabinet
caused no surprise. There had been
some speculation as to whether the
new premier would think it well to
dissolve parliament, and he would have
been fully justified in assuming the
government under somewhat unusual
circumstances Of taking the course of
appealing to the country for new
mandate He has, however, evidently
decided otherwise.

THE MUKDEN AFFAIR

on Our Consulate.
Japan REFUSES PREPARATION.

Senator.

Fleet is In Pacific" Says Prominent
Senator.
Washington, April 13.-The attack on
Consul General Straight and the serv-
ants Of the American consulate at
Mukden by Japanese rowdies, led by a
postman, has stirred the administra-
ton to action. 1t is regarded as a
much more serious affair than appears
on the surface, and prompt action will
undoubtedly be taken to obtain the
reparation that Japan has SO far re-
fused.
A conference on the subject was
held at the White House by the presi-
dent, Secretary Taft and Assistant
Secretary of State Robert Bacon. It
was assumed at the conference that
Consul Straight had made a report OF
the incident to Minister Rockhill at
Picking and that he would commune
cate the facts to the state department
without delay.
To insure his doing so cable mes.
sages were sent to both Mr.. Rockhill
and Consul Straight asking for all the
facts.
Consul Straight All Right.
A prominent government official, In
discussing the affair, said:
II know Straight personally. He ia
well named. He is a good, clean, able
fellow and not one who would make
mistake. The invasion of consulate
and an attack upon the consul is one
of the gravest abuses of international
etiquette. 1t is something that calls
for prompt apology and punishment
of the offenders. / assume that moth
ing will be done until the facts are
officially known, and that will take a
few days. Until then judgment should
not be hastily made"
''Of course we don't know officially
just what happened, but is safe to as
sumo that the facts are practically as
they have been stated said ranking
member of the senate foreign relations
committee in commenting upon the
affair.
This is not news to me-" continued
this senator. I'VE have had similar
cases before, and the Japanese have
always been found in truculent, no
compromise attitude. We have got to
have it out some day. This may not
be the time. 1t probably is not tbs
time, but from the far east a long
- ~
dignities and supercilious sights even
to point of violence have been re.
ported. 1t is good thing that the
fleet. is on the Pacific. We are ready
for them il they get too high and
mighty"
When inquiry was made about the
matter at the state department the
subject was treated in the most guard
ed manner.
