BY B. c. FORBES.

Business is the only great field
cultivated in America.
once a man has risen to the
very top and has accomplished all
the money he wants there is moth
ing for him to do but go on money
making, trying to achieve still
greater successes in business.
He can not comfortably stop, for
if he gives up business he is re-
garded as a loafer and is despised
by his fellows Besides. there is
nothing to take up his time agree
ably and profitab.y He is out OF
It."
In Europe it Is very different
There men who have attained
notable success in business and
other rich men have several attrac-
tive fields open to them.
They can enter politics and find
able and congeniaI associates.
That is the great outlet for talent
in Britain, for example
or they may chose TO spend
their time largely among cultured
society and in clubs. where people
of erudition gather at all hours

years. high school course unlesa 1--WE
give them more men teachers"
Mr. Hand says:
"For four years the number Of men
teachers has remained almost sta
ttonary, but with a slight decrease.
For the same period the number Of
women teachers has increased SO per
cent. I realize that IT Is rash, impol-
itic and dangerous to say that the
high schools are in need oe more men
teachers Of ability. In discussing n
question like this it is hard to con
fine. people to orderly reasoning Let
us divest the subject of sentimentality
and ourselves Of blarney and patroniz.
ing gallantry. The whole question OF
the relative efficiency Of men and wo,
men as teachers Is usually pitchod on
the wrong plane and discussed from
the wrong viewpoint. The discussion
Is not to try to prove that mon toach,
ers are In any way superior to women
teachers, but to show that each has
place, very necessary place.

In this joint parental training the
