THE COUNTRY SCHOOL TEACHER.

The following word picture of thC
average country school teacher was fur
nished by Charles Wardell Stiles, pro
fessor of zoology of the United States
health service:
She is paid miserable salary for
exposing herself five days a week to
indecent and unsanitary conditions sur,
rounding the / OPT schools, which jeopar-
die or end her life. She is blamed for
not giving better education to UNI
healthy children, who on an average are
not mentally capable of digestng the
education she does give them. But she
is the greatest civilizing influence to-
day in our rural communities.
After reading the paragraph, Vermont
people ought to take the matter home
to themselves and see ii the conditions
fit the surroundings OF their own schools,
either in their community or in their
district. There is no need to get ex-
cited over the expressed and implied
hints concerning the inferiority Of the
people whom the teacher serves, but, on
the contrary, there ought to be earnest
and candid eonsid Grafton of the state
ments set forth in Prof. Stiles annual
report. Perhaps the statements are not
true of Vermont school communities.
We hope they are not. But the people
will most certainly show their mental
if they attempt to resent the
insinuations of Prof. Stiles. Therefore
it is best to look into the conditions of
the district schools and see if the teach
er il not very much handicapped and
see, also, if it is not possible to re
move those handicaps to a marked de-
gree without great outlay. The well
fare of the state demands that this open
minded consideration be given to school
conditions. Vermont should prove her
self large enough to cope with unsatis-
factory conditions as they are found. |
We presume other states, to which Prof. |
Stiles remarks apply, as well as Yer
mont, will also take the steps required |
% improve the rural schools. If there |
: any place in organized society which
demands the best possible conditions il |

The Oberammergau play is in the main
