Chancellor kirkland is spending the

Southern Sociological Congress, in
session there. He is in Hattiesburg at

The Importance Of the teacher in
civic life" he declared, SIS indicated
by the number of institutions estab-
lished for normal training. You have
an example OF it here, with = big Sc
ries of buildings, costing thopslnds of
dollars, and a corps of professional
teachers, than whom there are none
better to be found anywhere.
Teachers are sometimes born, and
they must always be made. This
means that they must be trained. This
is true not only for the elementary
grades, but also for high schools. col
legcs and universities. There is 1t
tie excuse today for an unframed
teacher. In this work we have devel-
oped an endless mass of technical de-
tails. We have courses on method
for every subject il the curriculum
courses in psychology, philosophy,
school administration, and the history
of education. The field is so large
that each one must specialize aEd no
one can compass it all.
