yiding for consolidation of districts
and the formation of union high
school districts, by raising the min
imum requirements for certification
and increasing the length of the
school term.
In my judgment the immediate,
vital need of the rural school is
careful supervision. This is even
more necessary in rural schools
than in the city schools, because
few of the rural school teachers
have had normal school training.
The problem of the rural super
Visor is to take unframed, inexperi-
enced girls and to inspire and di-
rect them that they may develop
into efficient teachers. The super
visor must be one who not only
knows good school but also knows
how to train others to teach. He
must be teacher of teachers.

his attentions to just one, either,

In the counting season especially

then both tail and wings are raised

BY SPIRITS
SEEKS REST At
HOSPITAL

ST. LOUIS, April 2.-Of her own
volition, DR.. Sylvia A. Pfeiffer Of
1882 ST. Louis avenue has gone to
the city hospital, where she hopes
to be cured of the mind terrOrs that
have been induced by too deep
delving into the mysteries OF the
East.
Mrs. Pfeiffer is graduate of the
Kansas City College of Physicians
and Surgeons and the divorced wife
of William Pfeiffer, railroad con-
tractor.
She says she lives in haunted
neighborhood, and that the medi-
ums of her vicinity will not leave
her alone. Sometimes they send
spirits in the middle of the night to
wake her up and send her on long
Journeys. To escape the results of
these supernatural impulses she
surrendered herself to the care Of
the city physicians.
She says the desire the spirits
seem to be particularly anxious to
instil in her mind is to go to Pales-
tine to teach. This, she says, Is
furthest from her sane intention,

strength necessary to combat such
