Altho we have always boosted OF our
educational facilities, We have nevertheless
been only trifling with education. There is
no doubt that the teachers Of our country
are underpaid and that if we continue our
present policy this teaching force is going
to deteriorate still more rapidly.
You cannot control natural forces, and it
is natural for the more capable people to
seek those avenues of employment thaV
bring the most remuneration and give the
most opportunity for liberal culture.
Dr. William Allen Nielsen, president OF
Smith College, says: eve are facing the
aqnihilation Of profession"
Teaching does not pay. Other professions
do. The college graduate is entering the
industrial and commercial fields. They be-
come department managers or go into BUSH
ness for themselves; they take up chemistry
and dietetics; they write or edit
A New York professor writes: Most Of
young men now coming into the teach
ranks are mediocre. Otherwise they
fould not be here. There is too much de-
mand for them elsewhere. The world is
being rebuilt and they are wanted. The
universities cannot get them"
In view of all this il is difficult to con-
ceive OF more pressing obligation upon
our people than that of worthily endowing
and supporting their institutions Of learn
ing.
