Senator David /. Walsh of Massa-
chusetts pledges full support to Cox
as a presidential candidate. Such a
pledge seems to have been superhuous
when Walsh was reported to be a
thick and thin supporter of Cox in the
convention. However, it makes for
newspaper publicity for the senator to
renew his vows of allegiance.

Those thousand teachers in summer
schools being conducted in Vermont
this summer give evidence, by their
attendance, Of a desire to do their
part in building up the school system
Of Vermont through the development
of greater efficiency in their own
school rooms. The number taking
courses in three Of these summer
schools Is, we believe, the largest ever
registered in Vermont, indicating a
growing intention among the teachers
to prepare themselves in larger meas
ure for the responsibilities develop
ing upon them in the training Of the
young people. As in many other lines
of activity. the teacher who endeavors
TO reach ont for larger ideas and for
a more comprehensive training is like
" to be the most valuable in her work,
for she Is neither standing still nor
slipping back. That supposition in the
case at hand is based, Of course, on the
ground that the summer schools Of the
state are able TO provide teachers with
that which win prove beneficial in
the development Of their minds and
in the improvement Of instruction in
the school rooms. II is to De expect
ed that the course in the summer
schools win be along practical lines
as they are given under competent su-
pervision.
