The New Mexico Education AS.
ISOLATION is made alive with pur-
poseful activity. 1t exists for a
purpose and has its being in order
to carry out certain great projects,
Reduced to it's lowest terms and
stated as a formula the purpose OF
the Association is to advance every
movement for the betterment Of
education in New Mexico with the
ultimate end that every boy and
girl should have at least a high
school education and while pro-
curing this education, every boy
and girl should have a trained
teacher.
To reach these goals the teach
ers of New Mexico have organized
themselves into an Association and
every member of the organization
must be aware that New MeXico's
greatest educational need is a
trained teacher for child.
Make use in season and out II
season of legitimate effective pub
licity and propaganda.
We ourselves must see to 1t that
needed legislation is enacted which
will require a decent minimum Of
training for all who are permitted
to enter the teaching profession.
superintendent principals and
high school teachers must compro-
bend the problems as a whole and
G,,f fnt
percentage Of the best boys and
girls in our high school senior
classes shall be attracted into
teaching service.
The state must provide teacher
training institutions with funds
available to make them all of col
lege rank, properly equipped and
supported to insure within a rea-
sonable period-five years let mo
say-a trained teacher for every
child.
The public must everywhere ac-
cord to the teaching profession a
decent degree of social recogni-
ton.
Every one must recognize that
education is expensive, but there
is one thing more expensive and
that is illiteracy, The expense Of
an educational program is insig-
nificant in comparison with the
enormous gain society receives
from it.
There shall be a shortage OF
trained teachers until such time
as compensation is adequate to
make the profession attractive.
Adequate compensation must be
sufficient TO provide:
I. A living which includes food
clothing, housing, laundry, Incl
dental essentials, medical, dental
and surgical care, insurance,
church, legitimate charity ex-
penses and all desirable facilities
for wholesome recreation and the
promotion of health.
2. Social and professional
growth, including, expenditures for
social life, including association
with attractive personalities Of
ones community and state, read
ing matter, music and art, expense
Of our state association and the
National Association, other meet
ings travel and professional train
ing In institutions OF learning.

THE FUNCTION OF A STATE
EDUCATIONAL ASSOCIATION

ISOLATION, there is the practical
matter of concrete methods, things
new in plan and things new in
accomplishment in our education
al scheme.
Without our educational associ-
alton 1t would be difficult to at
tain a uniform standard for the
teachers and the schools of the
state, 1t gives us an opportunity
for comparison. not only among
ourselves but with other systems
over the country. 1t is vital to
the educators of New Mexico to
know what is being done in Colo
RADIO, in Wisconsin. in New York,
or in London!
The educational problem is uni
versal and the teacher must get
vision beyond the walls of her
school-room if she is to keep alive
professionally.
And lastly, there is the social
benefit of our educational associ-
ations, and by social benefit l
mean that we are made more hui
man, more sympathetic. more re-
sponsive, by getting together. We
need our kind: social contact is
always enriching. The teacher
must feel near to human beings
II she is to touch young lives. And
in this connection must be con-
sidered the value to the commu-
nifty receiving the teaching body
as guests at an association.
The schools always need the
support, the cooperation and the
understanding Of the public. When
educators are gathered together
in city or in any center, educa-
tional concerns are brought to the
public mind with greater force
and it is possible to explain edu-
cational plans and interests. There
Is a quickening. not only of the
educational force but of the whole
receiving community. The asso-
citation furnishes the opportunity
for the cooperation of educators
and citizens of the state.
The New Mexico Educational
Association has advanced from
year to year not only in develop
ing more esprit de corps but in
bringing to the teachers a valu-
able opportunity for growth in
hearing educational leaders from
all over the United States.
e. The program this year has been
most carefully planned and the
speakers who are to address the
association are of unusal ability
and with rare vision.
l have earnestly urged the CO.
operation of all boards Of educa-
ton and county superintendent
to the end of securing full at
tendance at the coming associa-
ton, and entire support of the
purposes of this educational meet
ing.

BY John V. Conway, State Super
intendent of Public Instruction.

The benefits of a state educa-
tional association to any teach
ing corps are fourfold. namely
physical, mental, professional and
social.
The work in the school-room is
not a separate phase of a teach
er's life activity, but it must be
the expression of her whole being
az she Is acting uron ard react
ing to living num1n beings. A
teacher must give intellectual en-
ergy, emotional sympathy ana fine
example to shaping the growing
lives in her care.
The task is far too great for
one individual unless she con-
stantly renews her being from the
great source of life, the inspira-
tional sources.
An educational association Is a
physical benefit; it affords a sea-
son of change and refreshment:
it brings rural teachers out of
their isolation and renews social
contact for those who have gone
cut from the cities. 1t takes the
teacher out of the school-room for
period of relaxation and diver
sion that cannot fail to re-enforce
her physically, There is also
n mental refreshment, a stimula-
ton Of new interest. a qulckening
of mental activity. The teacher
is for a time lifted out of the
thought routine of her school,
room in new and varied ideas that
tend to stimulate her own origi-
nality.
The professional benefit of an
educational association is very
obvious. Education is living
movement, constantly advancing
in theory, in methods and in con-
ception of aims. No teacher can
serve effectively without acduaint-
ing herself with what progress is
being made.
At no time in her career is
teachers preparation complete.
She never can be sufficient unto
herself. She must constantly en-
rich mind and heart for her
work. There is an inspiration in
the gathering together of any
large group having common aim
or interest. There is a sense of
strength and enlargement that
must come to the teacher in real
izing that she is working in COM
mon with other teachers. The
magnetism of the mass must pos
sess her and stimulate her to finer
effort. The teacher has constant
need to renew her sources of in
spiration lest the deadly routine
of her work cripple her efficiency.
Aside from the benefit of such
inspiration in an educational as

PRESIDENT BICKLEY'S MESSAGE
TO THE TEACHERS OF NEW MEXICO:

~ lEAOHEho Of NEW MEAlCO:
The problems of this year are perhaps greater
than ever before for school people.
First-Because of the extreme tension of finan-
cial conditions, whether of school other business
lines These conditions must be met and considered
by the teachers as we'll as other school officials
Second-Our school system seems to be at the
dividing line. In the past, have of necessity de-
voted time and energies very largely to the ques-
ton of organization and have perhaps in this
obtained very creditable standing 1t seems now,
that we are to the place where we must go beyond
organization and obtain results from organization
take it, that the school of the state recognize
this condition. and that they determined to bend
their energies in the future to the larger fields of
school activies, and by the of organization
continue in more efficient way to work out and
obtain the inevitable results of good organization.
The slogan of our State Convention, Every Program
an Aid to Better Classroom Service for New Mexico's
Boys and Girls" carries this thought.
Our program indicates a most pleasant and
helpful meeting. Each superintendent, city and
county, is urged to weigh carefully their financial
conditions, remembering that, inefficiency is high
priced at any COST and that seldom over-pay for
efficiency. If financial conditions make it at all
possible, the teachers of our state should be at the
meeting November 21-22-23, at Albuquerque.

THE MEANING ON DEMOC

by James II. Chamberlain. Prcsi-
dent Silver City Normal School.
THE MEANING OF DEMOC-
RACY.
1t has been said that there Is
nothing new under the sun. AS
applied to a democratic form of
government there is much truth
in this for democracy is centuries
old. What does a democratic form
OF government mean? Some APP
pear to believe that It means n
form Of government under which
each individual is free to do as he
pleases. This would be the entire
absence of government. A democ-
racy is that form of government
under which each individual has
voice in deciding what he and
his fellows shall and shall not be
permitted to do.
Is the assumption that each
American citizen is capable of as
ststing in the work of governing
the nation well founded? Is our
government to endure or is It to
fall? What is to be the result of
the unrest and dissatisfaction
which are finding widespread ex-
preston today? The answer to
these questions is to be found in
