The Georgia School Teacher.

To the Editor of The Journal and
Courier:
Among the more important questions
before the people of our State there is
none of greater significance and far
reaching results than the one relating
to the mission of the common school
teachers.
When a student in one of the oldest
and best normal schools in our country
the writer had the privilege of sitting
at the feet of very distinguished edu-
Gator whose policy it was to have his
pupils define all terms of subject under
discussion before expounding the ques-
ton With a desire to adhere to his
teaching, we shall proceed to define the
theme chosen for remarks:
A Georgia school teacher IS a public
official entrusted with the great func-
ton OF molding character and enlight-
ening the intellect, for which service
she (white) receives the mental wage
OF 1920 per year, payable twelve months
after due, without interest This def
milton sounds little paradoxical to the
more intelligent, and savors OF pecu-
liar philosophy susceptible of expla-
nation only by our politicians, and
made possible by the ruling power of
the Commonwealth, namely, the voter.
The lawmakers seem to have some
conception of the Importance of edu-
eating our children, but in providing a
means whereby this might be accom-
plished, they have found nothing better
than very unsatisfactory system.
What deplorable condition confronts
usI The great State Of Georgia employs
yearly more than 10000 teachers to
teach some 10000 children, with no
greater appreciation than to offer them
a hodman's wage, and this depending
on credit system of payment.
In this, the State errs in not properly
paying her teachers. and further shows
her inability to provide remedy for the
betterment of her financial system.
The annual income OF teachers is a re

proach to our school system, ana the
There is not county in the State that
can, under general laws, pay her teach
ers promptly. No board Of education
can legally borrow money, and scrip
issued by boards will not be approved
by the State School Commissioners only
at stated periods within the scholastic
year. Poor school teacher She has ne
possible way of getting her money when
same is due and should be paid.
Our teachers not only face these I'M
inviting conditions, but they also en-
counter a mass of indifference and
skepticism on the part of the populace,
furnishing both the cause and effect of
a disgraceful school system.
No person Of good business sense will
enter profession where such inconsist-
encies prevail. The field is uninviting
and will be filed with inexperienced
weaklings, rather than men and women
Of real ability. There can be no cause
for rejoicing over the fact that few
schools supplement the public fund. A
supplement in the way of private tut
ton is strictly forbidden by the law
during the public term, and, therefore,
cannot be collected.
Even il private tuition is raid by the
better element, the teacher is reduced
to the station Of a beggar-mereIy
thrown upon the charity Of the people
a state both disgracing to the teacher
and degrading to the profession.
Moreover, that school system is a
monumental failure that fosters per-
sonal liberty to the extent of trying to
run it's finances from simply passing
the hat around"

Owing to his bashful nature you
