TEACHERS HIRED FOR LIFE
Swiss Pedagoeues Receive Small Pay
but Are Persons of Consequence,
Says School Head.

Thurgau-"Nearly 90 per cent OF
the teachers in Switzerland are men,
says W. X. Tate. supervisor of rural
schools in South Carolina. Mr.. Tat,
has Just returned from a three
months investigation in Switzerland
under the auspices of the national bu
reau of education.
Five hundred dollars is considered
a good salary for a teacher. After &
lifetime of service he may so as higE
$500. Living is cheaper there mar
here, however. and in addition to his
salary he is given a dwelling. a Ger
tain amount of garden land and wood
for fuel, His dwelling is generally in
the same building with the school
His position is Of considerable local
importance, Aside from his duties III
the schoolroom. he is often secretary
Of the local creamery association,
leader of the village band. organist in
the church and general intellectual
guide for the community.
When a teacher is engaged it is
for life or a long term Of years. He
settles down with the people WHOSE
children he teaches. and expects To
make that particular job his life work.
Changes are rare. Twelve new teach.
ers in one year in a system of 24O
was considered very unusual. The
record for continued service in the
same village is held by a teacher in
Thurgau. who has occupied the same
position for siyty-fve years. One
teacher that l visited has held his
position for twenty-four years. and his
father held the same position for
~thirty-iye years.
One of the most attractive features
Of the Swiss schools is the cordial per
sonal relation that exists between
teacher and pupil. There is nothing
Of the military in the discipline of the
school; no lining up; no marching TO

classrooms they shake hands with

had not see him for a long time and
are really glad 20 see him. The whole
relation is one of charming natural
ness and kindness on both sides"

A Rebel Verse.

A rebel soldier, after burying a fed

Every season l get many letters
running something like this: 81 love
flowers, l am a very busy woman
and haven't much time to devote to
gardening, but l must have a few gar
den-beds. l wish you would tell me
which kind to grow; kinds that re-
uuire the least possible amount of
the longest time"
| am always glad to answer such
inquiries, because | know how much
the average woman needs the pleas
ure a few flowers can furnish, as well
as the change that takes her out of
doors to care for them. Pulling weeds
and spading soil may not be very
easy tasks, but they are so unlike the
daily routine of housework that they
afford a positive relief for the over
worked muscles and the tired brain
of the woman who has to spend most
of her time indoors. ] wish every wo-
man could be prevailed on to have a
flower garden this summer. 1t would
prove as enjoyable as a concert or
the theater to the woman who has a
family to take care Of. She would
find health for both body and brain
in it.
Now l am a lover of old-fashioned
flowers. For several reasons; they
are as beautiful as any of the mod
ern ones, many of them much more

small expense,
Whatever system is used, it should
be planned and carried out in the
most effective way. The important
fact to remember is that in order to
farm successfully the fiat clay lands
with most crops it is necessary to pro-
vide some practical system of surface
drainage.
The land should be plowed- in mar
row lands. leaving dead burrows about
30 feet apart. The open burrows are
cleaned out and the water from them
flows into a ditch on the side of the
field BY. this means, very little sur
face water will stand ON the field after
heavy rains. BY this means. deep
cross bitches are largely avoided.
When the land is plowed in the fall,
the dead burrows are filled and new
burrows opened about Is feet from
where the old burrows were. This sys-
tenn of surface draining has given
satisfaction in many localities.

The drainage of heavy clay lands
deserves much attention, for the yield
Of crops obtained on such soils is very
largely proportional to the degree of
drainage. This soil, being naturally
retentiye Of moisture, puddles very
easily II worked when wet, thus pre-
venting the entrance of air into the
ground. The excess Of water also pre-
vents the coil from warming up early
IN the spring, and thus retards the
planting of seed and its termination

other organisms which prepare the

higher plants cannot do their work

and continue to do this at intervals,
until all the soil is disposed of. This
gets the roots of the plants down
where they will be cool and moist in
hot, midsummer weather. Shallow
sown sweet peas often fail in a hot
season. '
Another m~eritorious old plant is the
nasturtium. "Sturtions" our grand
mothers used to call them. They
bloom generously, and, like the sweet
pea, until cold weather m if pre-
vented from ripening seed. They are
snowy in the garden, and excellent
for cutting. But don't make the soil
in which you SOW them very rich, if
you do, you will get a most rampant
growth of vines and very few flowers.
Balsams-'The Lady Slippers" of a.
former generation-are deserving of a
place in all collections. They bloom
~profusely, ONE in a wide range of
color, and are easily grown. Do not
plant the seeds until all danger of
frost is over, as this plant is quite
tender. In order to give the flowers a
chance to display their charms effec-
lively it may be necessary to clip off
a good many of the leaves along the
main stalks. The Balsams of our
. grandmother's day were single flow-
ers, but those of our day are as dou-
BILE as a rose. The flowers cluster so
thickly along the stalks that they
look like broken bits of wreathing.
There should be a corner given over
to poppies-the great double peony-

son, and pink, and white, and almost
purple. And another for ragged robin
and bachelor buttons and Scabiosa.
The latter used to be known as Morn
ing Bride" because of its dark color.
1t will be found a valuable flower for
cutting, because of it's long stems and
lasting quality.
Nowadays we have no China asters
such as our grandmothers grew but
the varieties developed from that
modest old strain by our wonder-work-
ing florists cannot be left out of any
garden without deprivIng it of n of
the most satisfactory of all plants.
