HIGH SCHOOLS
ON PROPER BASIS

Resolved, That it is the sense of the
joint Association of Alabama Colleges
and High Schools that no college in Ala
bama should be considered as of stan
dard grade unless It bases its course of
study on at least IA high school units
This resolution, expressed in q nutshell
the sentiment which was voiced by some
Of the strongest educators of the state,
to raise the standard of the college and
get out of the way OF the high school.
Statistics, presented by James J. Doster
of the university, pointed TO the vast
expenditure OF half million dollars OH
high schools in the last few years. and
the Importance of leaving their work TO
them.
Charles II. Barnwell, dean of the aca-
demic faculty at the university, in an able
paper, set forth his idea of the best way
to secure results, In discussion of ad-
mission to the college by certificate. In
the following paragraphs he set forth
strict and graded system of certification:

FALLS PLAYING
HIDE AND GO SEEK
Hufford Todd Has Both Arms Broken
and Head Injured by Slipping
From Roof

Hufford Todd, the 12-year-old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. H. i. Todd, 707 North Twen-
ty-first street, was painfully injured yes
terday when he fell from the roof of a
house. The boy was playing hide and
go SEEK with some of his boy friends
when the accident occurred. The building
from which he fell was just one story
high. 1t is stated that the boy climbed
up to the roof in order to hide, his foot
slipped and the accident resulted. He
was injured about the head and both
his arms are broken at the wrist. He
was taken to the Davis infirmary, and it
was reported there last night that he was
resting well.

HE is willing to live simply and go

betterment OF a large community
at IL a choice of values. They find a
greater satisfaction in the value which
appeals to them than in the value which
appeals to the business man. Many other
men are engaged in scientific research
without any thought of its bearing on
practical applications. They necessarily
must live in a moderate way and neces-
sarily must expect slender financial re-
turns. They do not even know that the
discoveries which they make in science
will have any practical bearing whereby
wealth may be increased. And yet we
know that from such discoveries the
progress of the race Is largely derived. No
one can tell what may flow from a new
truth in science. We do know that the
vast improvements which have come from
the application Of human knowledge to
electricity, for instance. have been de-
rived from studies in pure science

ers are small. 1 am always glad when
they are Increased. But when all Is said
and done they will remain small as COM

and a teacher entering on his profession
must deliberately expect to sacrifice
wealth. He must do that in the full ex-
pectation Of attaining large and larger
satisfaction In his chosen profession"
Resolutions were introduced last night,
urging the use Of temperance course
in the elementary grades. insisting upon
musical instruction in rural, city and
county schools. The legislative commit
tee met last night at the Hillman hotel
and drew UP q number of resolutions to
be placed before the association this
morning.
The last session of the Alabama Educa-
tional association will take place this

and the passage OF final resolutions will

THESE Alabam scnool teachers are
the hardest working people in the
world" declared a tired newspaper
man last night. "They simply do not
know when to quit work and take
rest. They are up early in the
morning, get down to business and
keep steadily at it till late at night
"They never seem to get tired. If
they are not actually in session they
are holding conferences. committee
meetings. and il they run out of work
of that kind they get together and
talk mathematics. pedagogy and other
technical matters that look just like
work to me. 81
But these people especially those
from the rural sections, just naturally
love their work. They are earnest and
energetic and are determined to keep
UP with the rapid pace that is being
set for them by the advanced require
ments of the age.
1T is time for the teachers to get
up and hustle and they are doing It.
They have learned to burn the mid
night Oil and a, = themselves OF many
of the pleasures mat sometimes come
to people in other lines of public ser
wee. Inc teachers work Is never done.
New ideas and advanced methods are
being brought forward every day anu
the modern teacher in Alabama must
keep up or skp out of the way for
him who is willing to work"
THE success of the annual conven-
ton of the Alabama Educational asso-
citation is very gratifying to me as 1t Is
to all those interested in the education
a, interests of the state" said State
superintendent Harry C. Gunnels last
night.
The large and enthusiastic attend
ance is an encouraging indication of
the live interest that is being taken
in the new era of educational advance
ment by the teachers of the state.
ANY observer will recognize In the
personnel of the teachers In attend
ance on the convention a marked i'm
provement in intelligence. The teach
.ers of Alabama are on ~ higher plane
than heretofore Better salaries, bet
ter school houses and more stringene
requirements are doing wonders in the
elevation of the teaching forces of the
state.
II feel that we are just at the be-
ginning of q great educational awalS-
ening in Alabama, an awakening tn at
will elevate us much higher in the
ranks of culture and education among
the states of the union.
Alabama has not been as progress
sive along these lines as she might
have been. Our hope is In the teach
ers encouraged by the patrons OF the
schools. The teachers are doing their
part handsomely and there was never
a time when the people were more
thoroughly aroused to the Importance
of educat ton"
