LOOKING TWO WAYS.

BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE.
There were poets once in the yester
years
And there may be poets in days to
come.
To sugar our smiles and to salt our
tears,
But a Poet Today? Oh, hum!
Would a Homer live in a five-room
With the Greek for Welcome" upon
his mat?
There were statesmen once in the
olden days
And others shall follow in years to
come.
Men upon whom we could pour our
praise,
But a Statesman Today? Oh, hum!
Can a newspaper print suffice our
craving
For Webster the Wise in a steel
engraving?
The Past calls loud to the ear of faith
And We look TO the Future with
eyes of hope
We swear by the giants Of myth and
wrath
And Tomorrow's people have Won
drous scope,
But the neighbors and friends we may
see and touch
We can never believe in--very much

Teachers Underpaid.

Practically every State has become
interested in better salaries for pub
lie school teachers. Twelve States
and hundreds of local communities
have transmitted that interest into
actual increases. 1t is still legally
possible, however, as the National
Education Association points out,
for a teacher to receive the dis
graceful salary of $40 per month,
and that for only six months-an
annual salary Of S240 or &c cents a
day. There is no class Of workers
in the railroad service, not even the
section hands, that does not receive
l07 per to 800 per cent Of the aver
age salary paid teachers. Hod car
riers earn from one and one-half to
twice as much as teachers, black
smiths two and one-half. and brick
layers about three times as much.
When one considers the years of
preparation and constant study re-
quired of teachers such comparisons
are ludicrous- Never have our pub
lie schools had greater RESPONSE
bilities than today II We are to
have teachers who measure I'D to
this responsibility. they must be
paid living salaries.-From LesIie's

energy. He is an ardent Y. NJ. c. A.

recently.
Men who are under Chance are
strong for him because he takes an
