The Tampa Tribune says there are
plenty of school teachers in Hills
borough county. The st. Petersburg
Independent says there are plenty in
ST. Petersburg. There are plenty of
teachers to be had everywhere if the
school boards will do like everybody
else-take what they can get. There
are plenty of women in the country
who have graduated from the high
schools, could teach up to the twelfth
grade, and would gladly do so if Civ
en- chance. The trouble with the
school boards is they are trying to
compete with the government and
the war industries, which are paying
twice as much as Florida counties can
afford to pay.
The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1918-09-16

No doubt the school boards will
continue to teach what they consider
proper and right, without paying
much attention to the opinions of
newspapers-but In some counties of
Florida at least it would appear to be
better to give more time to English
and less TO Latin and algebra. An
amazing number of high school chill
dren have but a faint idea of read
ing, writing and spelling in English,
although perhaps certified as having
made excellent progress in Caesar,
Sallust and Cicero.-Times-U Union
Short Talks.
The school boards would pay lot
of attention to the newspapers if
the newspapers turned their atten-
ton to the errors in the school sys-
tenn. The newspapers, SO far, with
few exceptions, have let the school
authorities do as they pleased. 1t
would not be so bad if children who
are taught Latin and algebra remem-
bered it-particularly the latter
but they don't. Let Short Talks in
terrogate the men and women of his
acquaintance who have studied Latin
and algebra, and see how much they
remember of either. Some years ago
we asked an Ocala school teacher who
had given much time to instructing
young people in Latin to translate a
short and simple English sentence
into Latin. And he couldn't do it,
without going to his books and study
ing it out Of what use is dead
language that live men can't take
hold of any better?

In reply to the Stars remark that
1T didn't consider auto stealing suf-

Tampa Tribune says they might put
a stop to the stealing. We have never
known necktie parties to put stop
to anything except the life of the re-
cipient of the tie. Our president has
eloquently pleaded with Americans to
stop lynchings-we would hate to see
his request ignored by Florida men
for the sake of few hundred dollars
worth of machinery.

Modern Poetry.

Poetry, like every great force, has followed an evolution of it's own, and as 1t comes to us today we may trace tn 1t this general tendency. It has tended away from the epic and the ex- pression of broad communal or na- uonal feeling, and expresses now far more than 1t did. in far more subtle and intricate directions, the feelings Of the individual. If 1t gives voice on public, national or International eveAts 1t does so from far more specialized and personal point of view than of olc, and with something of the acerbity and narrow intellectual outlook of ths party politician. The strength Of roc1- ern poetry hardly seems to ia fcs tha euturo h this direction.
