0uR STATE TEACHERS ASSOCIATION

Another State Teachers Association has gone into history
It's program contained splendid speeches. splendid
musical numbers and dsgracefu arguments and undgn
fled behavior average teacher it gave nspra
ton plans efficient future work In its nature
lit like holiday gathering than association for
broadening the pedagogical horizon and opening up and
more modern lines thought those who have the
training youth.
Such situation not unknown to great of those
attend it, More than few of those who have been attend
its sessions for years expressed themselves
DESTROYS radical change in its procedure But they stop
with the bare expression Either they join in its
policy refuse to aendthus leaving it in the same unsas-
factory state as before.
To the casual observer it appears that lacking dec
ton at nothing particular therefore it accompshes
nothing 1t is "just meeting"
This should not be- With the demand nsstent far
service pioneer efo steady development and broadened Wis
the highest possible efforts teachers should be expen-
ded in acquiring these by means of directed with
other and with specialists along school lines it be
made possible by this meeting It's policy should be well de-
fined and its pursuit Of such poncy nssent that thought
into the minds of those who would attend it. be
made to stand for something AS it conducted stands
for nothing except mngng and the exchange Of greetings in
stead Of thoughts.
The Express does not attempt to say this
believe that certain changes in its executive mach
cry could be made to contribute much toward this end
It's business is poorly transacted due to the absence Of
sponsibilty for it in any definite place
It's finances be dspaed for they are not properly safe
The method Of choosing its officers is unfortunate for al
lows for the predonance of politics over the more constructive
part of its program.
The directing heads have not caught vision of great
possibilities which has becoming potent force in the ed
caona life of the state therefore its program aims at nothing
They have time to study its needs
The behavior Of the teachers during its sessions not
sentative The meetings do not pretend to follow the clock
There are teachers and educators in Texas who the
of time and dcorous procedure Splendid executives
numbered among them
This situation demands that these teachers band themselves
together way to bring about change for the better in
this body which fails by than little to reflect credit
upon the profession with which they identified
The Express would be pleased to hear from them.

(For A. N. Pr

st. Louis, Mo-, Dec. 4.-The Con-
stitutional Convention now in SEES
sion in Jefferson City is having diff
ficulty in framing a provision for
permitting this city to expand its
limits, taking in certain desirable
portions of St. Louis County. IncIud-
ed in this city question, the Con-
vention has a proposal before it
changing the system Of electing the
members of the Board of Alderman
by city wide vote, to choosing AL
derman by votes of their respective
wards. This plan is sponsored by
the Democrats who see the possibil-
ity OF securing 10 of the 18 Alder
men under the arrangement, and
will doubtless meet the solid appro-
val Of the Colored voters, as under
the present arrangement 1t is alb
solutely impossible for them to
choose one of their own nun Der and
elect him to the board of Aldermen

largely in the majority. Indeed JUS

THE SOUTH AND THE DYER BILL

One who observes the vgor with which Democrats and
Southerners opposing the Dyer AnLynchng Bill is
to wonder whether the bill will actually pass and whether
Of it's failure the individual Southern states win take steps,
their rights having been reserved pass laws at its check
Such observations order for the Dyer Bill is again
halted in the Senate This time it headed up by of
the everes ruthless busters staged in that body 1t
determined effort One calculated to accomplish its pur
pose at any cost
idea Of the feeling of Democrats and Southerners who
participated in the buster may be gained from the speech of
Senator Underwood who said 1T be apparent the Sen

appears that Republicans hope to get some legislation
through at this session so they have abandoned the Dyer Bill

solved by the builder and contrac-
