TEACHERS ARE
IN GREAT DEMAND
THROUGH maine

| Gorham, Me. Aug. 21.-That the de-
mand for trained teachers in Maine
is very much in excess of the supply,
is the surprising statement made by
w. e. Russell, principal Of the Cor
ham Normal Schol.
I'VE cannot begin to fill the calls
that school superintendent send d.
rectly to us for normal school grad
uates," said Principal Russell. 1.-The
State needs about a thousand new
teachers every year and at present
the normal schools do not graduate
nearly that number Of Students Con-
sequently, every normal school grad
uate can secure an excellent position,
in fact, could get two positions II 1t
we're possible to fill BOTH"
1T is difficult to say just why there
are not more trained teachers In the
State" Mr.. Russell added. Il know
Of no occupation open to young women
that offers greater inducements than
does teaching. The work is decidedly
congenial. The trained teacher is not
only sure Of employment. but Is sure
also Of fair pay and has the prospect
of steady promotion from year to year.
And the normal school graduates are
engaged to teach the most desirable
schools where Of course, the best sal
aries are paid.
THE fact that great many Maine
teachers are called to positions in
other states, notably to Massachu-
SETS is also a very important factor
in keeping the supply below the de-
mand here in Maine The only solu-
ton to the problem that 1 can see is
for Maine to produce more first class
teachers and then, II possible. pay
them SUFFICIENT salaries to keep them
from going elsewhere"
