box at the depot ard noticed that it
was from q mail order house. He
also noticed that the goods were right
In his line and the same as he had
carried for years. He Immediately
approached the farmer and said:
Il could have sold you the goods

the Chicago house and saved you the
freight"
Then why didn't you do so?" said
the farmer. 81 have taken the local
paper for a year and have not seen
a line about your selling these or anv
other goods. This mail order house
sends advertising matter to me asking
for my trade, and it gets it. If Won
have any bargains, why don't YOU put

TRAINING IN SERVICE.

LEARN to do by doing" is maxim
that conscientious teachers endeavor to
follow in their school management IT.
means that children are to learn to read
by writing; to solve problems by suii
cient drill in fundamentals; TO use good
English by repetition of proper forms
But the application of the maxim to our
professional improvement is seldom APP
preciated.
Capable workers in the industrial
world can best be secured by careful
system of training closely related to
practical every day duties. The humble
mechanic, the engineer, the lawyer, the
physician and surgeon realize that ad
vancement for them must be through
| experience And teachers, also, instead
of relying upon the prestige of certificate
and diplomas, need to realize that these
credentials are merely milestones in
career not clear evidence of teaching
ability nor proof of previous success in
the work these come through expert
ence only.
TO learn to do this by doing, one must
have an open mind. This does not
mean that every novelty and pedagogical
fad must be tried but it does mean that
the mind must be open to a possible
value in some untried methods and de.
vices, and be willing, even anxious, to
| -, Al
sideration, TO be confident that ones
own methods are good or better than
any one else, is to drop into groove, to
find interest waning and enthusiasm
| fading,
With an earnest desire to acquire a
thorough training through the work in
which one is constantly engaged, there
must be frequent analysis of ones com
mon practices. The actual work done
must be questioned as TO its ultimate
value there must be study of ways to
approach to important problems; the
peculiar relationship of teacher anG
pupils needs to be analyzed and the
usual management of school needs care
ful scrutiny; but all should be done by
comparison with the processes already
known and observed.
The Summer School," the Teachers
State Educational Meetings" and the
"Reading Circle" can do something for
teachers while in service however
they can never give the necessary direct
training actual school work is essential.
But these courses help the employed
teacher by giving her an idea of some of
the fundamental principles which will
enable her to analyze her own work
and put into practice more timely meth
ods.
Supervision also should result in i'm
provement of the teacher and should be
sought rather than feared. Supervision
can do something to lift teaching from a
rut by giving teachers the power to see
their way through the maize of text
book material and To trace definite
path to success through the multitude Of
duties that make up the routine work of
their daily life.
Improvement in the technique of
teaching can come only through system
attic daily work made exact by detailed
course of study. The employed teacher
has abundant opportunity, therefore, TO
become thoroughly trained and success
fu in her work, but this success will
come only as she applies herself thought
fully and enthusiastically to suggestions
aud practice,
