Work

If one cannot find the kind of work he wants to
do or which he thinks he is best fitted to do it is
for him to find what work he unfamiliar it
may be to him. It may be less congenial than the
work to which he has become trained and accus-
toned but it will least gain him livelihood and
what is more to the point it will keep him busy and
prevent him from lapsing into the habit of waiting
for something TO turn up
We are now in a period of so-caed unemploy-
ment and are getting in a little deeper every day
The depth will probably get little greater until
sometime spring when a resumption of activity
in all lines may be reasonably expected In the
meantime there is work to be done. That is work Of
some kind may be found by those who are earnestly
looking for it.

We have had something to say respecting the
proposed teachers salary amendment to the consti-
tuition which rejected by the people month
ago. We pointed out that a constitutional amend
ment was unnecessary to increase the salaries of
teachers though such an amendment would be
quired the salaries OF officials those sal
aries which fixed by the constitution and for
which the teachers salary amendment merely
cloak 1t the transparency at least the trans
ucency of the cloak which effected THE defeat of
the amendment. Perhaps straight forward re-
quest for the increase of salaries, with reasons show
ing why they should be increased would have met
with a favorable response. Though the average
voter perceivng the avidy with which official places
with their present salaries sought might
then have objected to increase.
We have before copy of THE Arizona Edu
caona Directory. 1s2o-21. issued the office of
thte state superintendent of public instruction in
which is set the of every school district in
state, the the teachers and the salaries
they receiev. We find that the salary situation is
not nearly bad thought it was. 1t will need
very little adjustment,-say minimum salary enact
ment fixing minimum somewhat above thte lowest
salaries paid
In the larger town schools the salaries rangs
from SIPS month upwards Very them be-
ing below $3.50. for nine months year. The
age is s175 The principals of the schools
ceive from s225 upward $500. $500 and $500 for
twelve month year.
But believe it not proposed to raise thte
salaries generally of the city teachers who thus
generously provided for by boards of trustees. but
make provision for the teachers districts
where boards happen to be penurious. We find,
however, that the country boards have been much
liberal than supposed
The lowest salaries paid anywhere are in the
Crane district Yuma county where they are, 500,
$40 and $3.50 for nine month year. In Welton dis
trict in the county there is $120 salary for
eight month year. A similar salary is paid in
thte Lake district, Coconino county. OF course
such salary is attractive the teacher of
average capabilities 1t is less than $1,000 for a
twelve month year. But generally throughout the
even in small districts teachers receive salaries
ranging upward from s125. The more common fig
$780, s14o. $3.50. $3.50 to s175.
Thus it can be how easily such defects as
may exist in the teachers salary list may be
died without structural disturbance of the founda-
ton of all laws.
Most school trustees need legislation. They
apprecative of the that fair salaries must
be paid to good teachers they willing
to pay them to the extent the afforded them
There are. suppose some trustees to whom mere

sufficient to correct THE methods trustees.
