Teachers, now is the time to ask
for higher wages. You have been
teaching for $40 or $50 per month for
eight months or with few excep-
tions: for little more. Teaching is
the poorest paid profession now on
the list. Do not hesitate as to de-
manding better pay in your field
the noblest of them all. If you
work energetically and consistently,
as most of you do, you are worth
more to the community, state or ma
tion than any other class of people.
This is not an overdrawn view in
any sense. In our own county note
whatsa change has been made in the
last few years as to salary of teachers
and development of the grade work
in our country schools. How have
these improvements been wrought
out9 Mostly through your own
Efforts is the best reply. You have
taken up your work in the several
districts at a comparatively small
salary, have done your work faith
fully and at the end of the year the
school boards have almost without
exec ption asked you to remain, say
ing to you that a few dollars increase
| is nothing as to benefits derived
from what has been accomplished by
your instruction. Boards of educa.
tion will continue in this line if you
show them you are worth it.
