CARSON DEFINES A TEACHER
Editor Says Good Educator One Who
Teaches Pupil Self Help.
SHOULD IMPART KNOWLEDGE
No Matter How Mucb He or She May
Know, the Important Thing Is
to Present ~ Properly to
the student.

A good teacher is one who makes him
self useless as quickly as possible This
In substance, was the definition given of
a competent instructor by o. 4. Carson,
editor OF the Ohio Educational Monthly.
Columbus, o.. yesterday afternoon. He
was addressing a Joint session of county
superintendents. boards of education and
rural school teachers at the Omaha High
school
That definition, for which ] am not
responsible is not, taken literally, very
complimentary TO the teacher" said
Mr.. Carson. while It is something Of
a quip It Is fun of meaning. a good
teacher, in other words is one who can
teach the pupil self-help-one who can
show the pupil the way to do things for
himself. It is in this way that the good
teacher makes himself useless
MIR. Carson's address was greeted as
feature of the session. 1t followed a dis
cussion on How Teachers Are Judged"
Joined In by Miss Alice Florer, York
county; Miss Hannah Johnson, Boone
county, and T. Z. Grimes, Custer county.
DIR. f. Holovtchiner. president of the
Board OF Education, had spoken on The
Need OF f~Technical or Industrial Educa-
tion in Our Schools" and THE Duties of
Boards of Education TO Promulgate the
Same"
The editor of the Ohio Educational
Monthly believes that the most successful
teachers are those who, I'm their own
minds, can reproduce the problems that
perplex the student.
Problems of Teaching,
"Occa sionally," he continued, there
creeps into our schools--grade schools,
high schools, colleges and universities
as an instructor a man who is wholly
untitled TO discharge the duties he has
undertaken. This is particularly true OF
universities, where we sometimes find
man who has spent his life i'm research
work trying to impart to students his
knowledge OF some particular subject or
science. Now, such a man, without ques-
tion, has all the knowledge and more than
is required of a good instructor. The
trouble usually is that he positively can
not pass II on; he 10 a scientist, not a
teacher. Men who have been successful
in research work-whose whole training
has fitted them for that department Of
turn their data over, so
TO speak to men who have acquired, or
have been gifted with, the knack OF
teaching"
The opinions OF Mr. Grimes as to the
criterion by which teachers are judged
by pupils. parents and others were re-
garded as rather original. He said that
the personality and the personal appear
ance, especially OF woman. had much
TO do with the impression that Is given.
He said that the Unborn regard that every
one has for physical charm Is responsible

refraining from indicating whether II was
disposed TO mediate between Mexico and

AVERAGE PRICE
OF METALS HIGH
IN PAST YEAR
PAST TWELVE MONTHS WERE
THE BEST FOR PRODUCERS
IN MANY YEARS

1t is a happy coincidence that
while the United States was break
ing all previous records for amount
of mineral production in 1912 the
average price Of all the metals, with
the sole exception of lead, showed
splendid Improvement over previ-
GUS yars The improvement in sill
yer, copper and zinc were especially
marked, while the cost OF produc-
tion, especially copper, has never
been so low, generally throughout
the country as it was in 1912 The
producers, therefore found the world
anxious for it's metals, willing to pay
a premium for the same, while
the cost of production in part at least
was the lowest ever gained
Copper in 1912 averaged 1884
cents per pound, against 1876 cents
in 1911 and 12.73s cents in 1910.
Silver in 1912 averaged 60.S35
cents per ounce. against 5S.SO4 cents
in 1911 and 53.4S6 cents in 1910.
Zinc in 1912 averaged 6sS5 cents
per pound (St Louis prices), against
5.6OS cents in 1911 and 5.7S0 cents
+ in 1910
/ Lead was somewhat of disap-
pointment to the west, averaging
in September and October of last
year better than 5 cents pound
for the first time in several years
but falling back again when it be-
came evident that the tariff was
to be disturbed by the new admin.
istration. Lead in 1912 averaged
4. II cents per pound, against Az
cents in 1911 and 4.446 cents in
