Paul r. Morrow, principal Of the
Senior High school announced today.
his resignation 10 take effect in June.
Mr.. Morrow made the following
statement:
Il expect to hand over the Senior
High school TO my successor in June.
Il is fitting that ] should now state
that shall leave the pupils OF the
school and friends in chickasha. with
regret. In the past three years, / have

work Nothing is too good for the Sen.
ior High school The progress made
the past three years there has been
largely due to the active support and
loyalty Of the students.
Concerning my own plans, shall
say briefly at this time. that | shall
leave the teaching work altogether in
June, and, for the next three years,
shall pursue the study OF law at one of
the large universities-pr probably Le-
land Stamford, at Palo Alto Califor-
MIA Ny family will. of course. accom-
pany me, as | shall remain at the uni
versity until | obtain the doctors de-
gree in law.
My reason for leaving the teaching
profession is. as every teacher knows.
that it is impossible to, engage in that
great work without great sacrifice.
The teaching profession as a whole is
far underpaid, and in this time Of ex- J
treme cost Of living, teachers are bare
ly able to make ends meet. An un-
married man may continue as teach
er with great personal sacrifice, but |
man with family is necessarily obliged !
to sacrifice his family as well. There
is no good reason that conditions
should be as have described leave
the great work with regret, and, in
leaving would suggest that real
problem before the people today is
that Of paying the teachers fair and |
adequate salaries. 7 am purposely and
thoughtfully frank in statements con-
cerning the teaching profession for the
sake Of the great body Of noble women
and men who work in the schools"
