Mrs. Ella flaSe Young, ST.

n y virtue of her exalted position as
superintendent of the Chicago
public schools Mrs. Ella Flagz
Young is already the foremost
woman among the nations educators.
As president OF the Illinois Teachers
association she heads the pedagogical
profession in her state. II she is elect
ed president OF the National Educa-
tional association at its convention in
July in Boston. as seems possible, she
will be the professionally recognized
leader OF the country's teachers. II is
hardly necessary TO add that she win
be the first woman 20 hold the posi-
ton. since no other woman has ever
advanced so far TO the front In the
profession or teaching as has Mrs.
Young
IL was last year that Chicago as
tonished the country by electing Mrs
Young to the Office OF superintendent
OF the city's schools. The very idea Of
a woman superintendent OF schools
seems not to have suggested itself
previously TO the boards OF education
OF the countrys big cities. and the
election caused n sort OF shock The
magnitude OF the Office, with its super
intendency of more than 5000 teachers
and nearly 100000 pupils. its super
vision OF the disbursement annually Of
more than $4,000 900 and its COM
mand OF salary OF $4,000. all sent a
thrill Of interest through those who
are interested In the nations school
children. A woman superintendent Of
schools In a big city was 20 the pub
lie an unheard OF thing. for no one
could even remember the suggestion
OF such a choice, Since then another
woman school superintendent has
been elected, In the person OF Mrs
Mary d Bradford OF Kenosha, wis.
The size OF the salary attached TO
Mrs Young's position was one thing
that aroused general comment. II was
suggested in some quarters that ~
male superintendent OF schools was
worth $4,000 a year a woman super
tendent could not earn so much. The
suggestion had even been made at the
meeting of the Chicago school board
which elected Mrs Young. but the
fiery indignation OF Mrs Isabelle
oKcefe. the only woman member Of
the board and Mrs. Young's chief sup
porter. promptly and quickly squelch-
ed II. The salary remained what IL
had been, and there has been no sus-
gestion that Chicago IS dissatifed with
