DOCTORS WAIT FOR PAY
Wife of Physician Says it Is Hard to
Make Ends Meet.

In The People Forum department:
OF the New York World there appeared
few DAYS ago communication
signed Doctor 5 Wife. An interested
person in Brattleboro sends it to this
paper to be reprinted. 1t is as fol
lows:
Will some one tell me why nobody
wants to pay the doctor until he has
everything else he wants! l am the
wife of a hard working doctor, and he
has largo practice. We have the
greatest difficulty in meeting the ex.
pense OF our small family because his
books are loaded down with the names
OF people who owe him money that he
has earned in one of the hardest pro-
LESSONS on earth.
How many Of you like to listen to
the aches and pains and woes of your
dearest friends even, and what would
You think if you travelled all day, fur
nlshed medicine, your conveyance and
and perhaps, out of 20 calls,
SIX people might pay you!'

liable, so necessary, that we should eS-
tablsh n sufficient number Of state nor
NAL schools TO provide every rural
school with q professionally trained
teacher, even If we have to take the
necessary money to do this from the
state common school fund In the end
this would be better policy of public
economy than our present hort-sighted
policy, which IS expensive and which
sorcly neglects our rural schools in the
matter of properly trained teachers
This is evidenced from the fact that
there are over 100000 juvenile teachers
teaching IN the rural schools Of our
country at this time with less than high
school education and no professional
training
The only way to have better rural
schools is to have better rural teachers
For as is the teacher, SO is the school.
The only way TO have better teachers
is to provide better opportunities for
their preparation, and then paw for the
service rendered. IF we reduce the
wages of the school teacher, we must
raise those of the recruiting sergeant. :"
We need better qualified men and
women III many of our state normal
schools, colleges and universities to
teach our prospective teachers. SO be-
levcd Colonel Parker. the great teacher
of teachers, who said:
1.-THE day has come when stems
should be taken to see that no collepe
or university graduate is ever allowed
to take upon himself the sacred office Of
teacher without at least two years pro.
iessional training in school or college
fully equipped for that purpose.
what more priceless legacy can We
leave to the millions vet to be than TO
make 1t possible for our spiritual de-
scendants TO be 80 educated and so
trained that they will, under God, ef-
fcetually work out the destiny Of this
mighty continent, and through it of all
humanity
1t seems fitting and proper to review
ut tins time the evolution of the teach
er-training idea in both Europe and
America, for the reason that many state
legislatures viii wrestle with this prob
lem during the early part of 1917.

THoMAs's SUGGESTION TIMELY
Question of National Forest in Green
Mountains Worth Considering

The suggestion of President Thomas
that there should be large national
forest in the Green mountains. is time
", and worthy of the careful eonsid-
Grafton of the legislature. 1t is well for
the people OF the state to consider
whether they will have large areas OF
state owned forests like New York.
and strong forestry department. or
whether they Will encourage the owner
ship Of national forests as in New
Hampshire. Before the government
can buy any forest lands in any state
1t Is necessary for the legislature Of
the state to pass an enabling act. New
Hampshire and Maine are the only New
England states which have passed such
acts. Two years ago the state forester
brought tins matter = the attention of
the Vermont legislature with special
reference 70 Essex county. which has
the largest area OF nbrokcn forest
At that time the members OF the housa
