ROTARY MEETING

Supt. of Schools Stuart
Is Speaker
Gives Excellent Address upon Sub
jeet, Augusta S ooIs an d
Rotary" - Large Attendance of
Members and observation-disclosures
Desire Of Rotarians That Rev. Mr..
Wood Remain and Continue Work
in Augusta

That the laws of supply and de-
mand operate just as surely in the
case of teachers as in the case Of
the workings of this economic law
are now painfully apparent in the
supply or lack of supply of trained
teachers was pointed out by Rotari-
an III. II. Stuart, superintendent of
schools of Augusta, in his address
before the Augusta Rotary Club at
it's regular meeting Friday evening
at the Augusta House. Mr.. Stuart's
subject was Augusta Schools and
Rotary" and he pointed out Just
how Rotarians and other organiza-
tons can be of effective service for
the betterment of the school system
OF the city. 1t was splendid ad-
dress and held the close attention of
the Rotarians and their guests.
Mr.. Stuart spoke in part as fol-
lows:
You will probably agree with me
that the operation of the schools is
the most important single activity
at least which the municipality sup
ports and maintains. and that the
sole object for which these schools
are operated is for the education of
the children and for that alone. Not
withstanding this fact, the public
apparently shows very little interest
In its schools and school boards, and
superintendent too, are dilatory in
proposing new and progressive poll
cles, especially if they cost money,
until a forceful minority of the peo-
pie at least demand such changes.
This is not as it should be. for re-
sponsibility for the initiative in mat
ters pertaining~to the schools ought.
of course. to rest with the Board of
Education and the superintendent.
They presumably know more about
the needs. Yet school history il
full OF cases where school boards
have been numerically criticized for
advocating a school policy which OBJ
viously would promote the best in
terests of the schools.
You are all familiar with the Or
ganization of the Board of Educa-
tion-that the schools are separated
from the municipal government and
that money for the schools is ap-
propriated at a general meeting of
citizens held annually in May: this
is in my opinion as it should. be.
While this system is Unique ia this
State. in New York state this form
of school organization is common
and is rapidly becoming operative in
the better communities where there
is an earnest desire for good schools.
Probably improvements could be
made in the present system, but any
effort to return the schools to poll
tics should be fought zealously, for
when the schools are obliged to take
their chances in the ebb and flow of
political parties, the children per-
iodically suffer.
I believe Augusta is maintaining
a school system of average quality
and effectiveness, capable of much
improvement. Whether OF not i'm
