As a Woman Thinks
THE RESTLESS ONES.
BY EDITH E. MoRlARTY.

School teachers should receive more
money for their services There is
scarcely fair-minded person who dis
agrees with this. Much has been writ
ten and much is being said about the
poor underpaid school teachers and dis
satisfaction and unrest among teachers
is very noticeable. One expects that
the older teachers who have been
through years of hard, nerve racking
strain with small pay should feel the
injustice OF things and resent the slow
action of the school boards, for those
who have grown old in service have no
alternative. There is nothing to which
they may turn for livelihood and so
they must wait until due recognition
is given them and surely one forgives
them if they grumble while they wait.
1t is different matter, however,
when one hears young girls just out of
normal school, with scarcely two terms
of actual experience or training grumb-
''paltry salaries" and the "drudgery"
and ''monotony" of a teachers life.
One is tempted to lose all patience with
these girls and to tell them if they do
not like their work and their school
system and their pay the best thing
more remunerative. TO hear them talk
anything is better than teaching and,
if they really believe that, then the best
thing for them and for their pupils is
hasty resignation
Any teacher who feels that every
other job, no matter what it may be,
is better than the one she holds, ST Juld
get out of the teaching profession. She
is not worthy of the pay she is getting,
no matter how little it is. She will
never be able to do her best work if
she feels that she is in the wrong place
and is throwing her services away. No
school board, regardless of how badly
they need teachers, wants women who
feel they are doing a favor by taking
schools.
The schools, just like every bust
ness house, have their drones, their lazy,
indolent, inefficient quota of employees
who will always get more than they
really earn. 1t is this minority that had
best watch out when the reform in
school pay rolls eventually becomes a
realization, when teaching becomes
business, instead Of a profession, for
then these grumblers will be treated
like employees in other lines of work
They will be told their services are
no longer required when they cease to
show loyalty and interest in their work
The teachers cause is just, but the
complaints of the younger ones are so
unjust and unfounded that they often
hinder instead of help it,
Let them remember if they are really
worth more than they are being paid
they can earn it elsewhere.

Uncle wiggily. before you go off
looking for an adventure today, will
you please get Alice new broom"
asked Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy of the
bunny rabbit gentleman one Saturday
morning.
why. of course III get Alice a
broom" the rabbit gentleman said. But
what sort of a game is she going to
play with that"
"Oh, no game at ALL" answered the
muskrat lady housekeeper, who, with
Mr.. Longears, was staying for while
at the Wibblewobble duck house. But
it is Saturday, there is no school and
it's the turn of Alice to help sweep and
dust the house"
''Oh, see!" spoke the bunny. well,
can't she use the old broom"
"A new broom sweeps cleanest," said
keep you from an adventure, Uncle
Wiggily but Mrs. Wibblewobble would
like to have the house nice and clean
for May, you know-the month of
flowers
"All right--a new broom Alice shall
have" exclaimed the bunny gentle
man, and then, twinklng his pink nose
in a most jolly fashion, away he hop
ped over the fields and through the
woods
"In get the broom before I look for
any adventure" said Uncle Wiggly to
himself. "Tll take it home to Alice.
and then l can hop through the woods
again"
Mr.. Longears stopped in the nine and
twelve cent store and bought the best
broom he could find. And with this
over his shoulder he started back to
the Wbblewobble house.
Uncle Wiggly was hopping along,
thinking how nice slice Of chocolate
cake would taste when all of a sudden,
a little voice cried:
please"
who are you and why are you so
afraid of being shot" asked the
bunny, looking around.
Then he saw nice little old hop
toad gentleman crouching under some
leaves.
"Oh, it's only Uncle wiggily," said
the hop toad happier like. Excuse
me, thought you were a hunter man
with that gun on your shoulder.
That's only new broom for Alice
it isn't a gun" explained the bunny,
"Oh, so it is" croaxed the hop toad.
Excuse me, | can not see very well
But the broom surely does look like
a gun, ,.
Uncle Wiggily Then, bidding the hop
toad good morning, the bunny gentle
man hoped along and soon he was
back at the duck house.
"Oh, | was just wishing you q come
Quacked Alice. II want to finish the
sweeping and go out to play with
Lulu"
She took the broom Uncle Wsgily
had brought and, shutting herself up
in the sitting room, began to sweep.
Uncle Wiggily looked at his wrist
watch on his paw,
II guess I'll wait until after dinner
before I hop along to look for another
adventure" he said to himself. Maybe
then Alice will go with me"
So he sat down outside the house. in
the yard and he heard the duck girl
sweeping inside.
MAYBE Id better ask Alice if she
would like to go with me-" said the
bunny. She may have other plans"
So he went to the door of the room
where he heard the swish swish of the
broom. to ask Alice if she cared to go
with him. But no sooner had Uncle

So the bunny pulled the door shut,
but not before some dust had made

along came running the bad o!df OK
Have you seen anything Of Alice
Wibblewobble" asked the SLY fox. And,
before he thought what he was saying,
Uncle Wiggily answered
"She's in the house, sweeping
"Oh, is she?" barked the fox. well,
III just go in and get her. l haven't
had any duck in a long, long while"
Before Uncle Wiggiy could stop him,
the fox opened the door of the room
where Alice was sweeping.
Go back! Go back" quacked the
duck girl, thinking L was Uncle Wig
giN. you'll get all dusty and"
Just then lot of the dust that Alice
was raising with the new broom came
out CT the open door. 1t got up the
nose of the fox.
"A-ker- choo, Ker-snitzio, Bazooka"
sneezed the bad chap, and he sneezed
so hard that he turned a somersaut
over backward and slid down the side
steps.
"Oh. dear me-" cried Alice.
quick! Give me your broom" wills
pered Uncle Wiggily and, catching hold
of it, he pointed it at the sneezing fox
as though 1t were a gun.
