THE BREAD AND
 BUTTER QUESTION

Teaching is a noble, charitable pro-
 fession, but are you content to work in the charity department of your state when they allow you no pen sion or protection in old age? Or will you go into the great broad fields of business, where you can lay up something for rainy day, and provide your own protection for old age? The draft has crippled the teaching profession some but the state has made no provision to in- crease the teachers salaries, al- though the high cost of living has in- creased fifty and one hundred per cent. All commercial concerns have realized this condition and have in- creased salaries in proportion to the increased cost of living. Six thous- and teachers quit the profession in Texas annually. Can you blame them when you compare their annual earning capacity with that of any other class of educated men or women? Bookkeepers, stenograph- CTS, private secretaries, or operators, as beginners, get from S75 to $l00 per month, twelve months in the year and soon receive advances in salary and it IS not long, if they are made of the right kind of stuff, before they are promoted to assistant managers, or managers of large business con cerns, or engage in business for themselves and are thereby enabled to lay up comfortable living for old age. Compare the teacher and the commercial student after they graduate from the high school. The teacher must spend at least one or two years in a State Normal. while the commercial student spends only three to six months with us. The teacher spends many times the amount of money in preparation, and must wait several times as long be- fore beginning to earn. Each year the business man increases his earn ing power more and forges further ahead of the teacher. More evidence on this subject can be had by writ ing the Tyler Commercial College at Tyler, Texas, for a lange illustrated catalogue giving full particulars of Americas largest commercial train ing school, with more than three thousand enrollments last year, and reading what teachers who have at tended this institution say of the advantages it offers to those enter ing the business world, where they can greatly increase their earning capacity, enabling them to own homes of their own and enjoy the comforts that should rightly be theirs
