NO SHORTAGE OF SCHOOL
 TEACuERs THIS


 That the supply of teachers for Con necticut schools this fall will be greater than the demand is the expectation of officials working under the state board of education. This reversal of the ex- perience of the last few years is the re- suit of the increased opportunities for training in the technique of teaching made possible by summer school con ducted by the state board of education at Yale university and the extension courses conducted under the same aus pices during the school year. That this change should come at this time is the more significant since the new laws re- garding the state certifcation of teachers went into effect July 1 and raise the general requirements for new teachers to some degree. This increase of supply ov- 1 CT demand will mean that superintend- ents, especially in the rural towns, l rather than having to take any girl who could possibly qualify to teach in their schools now have range of selection. | J. L. Meader, director of the state summer school, said that there are about 225 beginners taking educational courses 1 this summer in the school. Against 1 this, he stated that there are nowhere near that number of vacancies in the state at the present time passing his statement on the knowledge of the field acquired through the employment agency connected with the summer school He said the girls realize this and that many of them are planning to supplement the:I summer work with courses in the regular normal schools of the state, which ht predicts will have record enro1lmcnt next fall.
 The annual turnover in the state each year is about 800 teachers, filled by bo to high school positions, teachers wht come to Connecticut for the first time and the local girls who enter the pro fession. The number coming into th state is usually a little greater than tn number who leave to go to other states.
 The evolution of the state summe
 school from a training school almos wholly for rural school teachers, whicl was it's original purpose, to a school at tended by city teachers and rural teach
 CTS, experienced teachers as we'll as be ginners, has been remarkable. Thi summer there are enrolled teachers fror practically every city in the state an
 the number of experienced teachers wh are taking advanced courses in educa
 tion, filling the gaps which in forme
 normal courses did not meet, has in
 creased until out of the 300 to LOO
 teachers enrolled, nearly 700 are experi
 enced teachers.
 The new state law on certifcation c I teachers does not shut out any h:g
 school graduate, providing she has ha e at least one six-weeks' course in educa : tion, such as is provided by Teacher! f College of Columbia university, the Hal - ward summer school, or the state sun f mer school. Meeting these requirement.
 she is granted a temporary teacher d certificate and on tha ronrnIetior1 n a two or more summer courses, she nas e permanent certificate. Teachers of e

again this spring when Judge Barnes was advanced as a candidate for mayor. The result was the defeat of Barnes by Rev. Mir. Ricketts for the nomination. The sequel to that was the defeat of Rev. Mir. Ricketts at the polls by Mayor Waters by upwards of 500 votes. Nor wich republicans did not altogether ap prove of the feminine disposition to pun lsh Judge Barnes. Judge Barnes, who is off on his annual tour to the White mountains is as chipper as ever and it isn't apparent to the casual visitor to the city that his prestige as one of it's im- pertsnt political leaders is in any way diminished.
 It would be interesting to know what Judge Barnes thoughts are when he con templates the possibility of a contest over the state chairmanship and a row in the convention over the governorship. He doesn't reveal what is in his mind. but it can be taken for granted that he has not forgotten some things that happened in the not altogether remote past. For several years he was judge of the Nor wich police court. He was a candidate for reappointment by the last legislature and the Norwich court contest was one of the high tension spots of the session, | sharing honors in this respect with the | Bridgeport judgeship fight which finally | was left to Governor Lake to adjudicate. | The Nineteenth district was represented | in the senate of 1921 by Judge Allyn L. Brown whom Governor Lake later put | upon the superior court bench and whose | father was formerly for many years judge of the Norwich police court. Sena- tor Brown made a bitter attack upon Judge Barnes and succeeded in defeating l his nomination.
 l There isn't any reason to suppose that l Judge Barnes loves Governor Lake any
 more for elevating to the bench the man | who prevented his Ceappointment or that he loves the Roraback machine any more for it's failure to rally to his support and prevent such a contretemps. Since Judge
 Barnes is factor in Norwich politics it
 might be we'll to take these matters into
 consideration. although the judge doe:
 not mention them and gives no sign that
 he remembers the incidents.
 Committeeman Bailey also had little
 experience some months ago when h'
 was a highly recommended candidate fol
 the compensation commission ership fol
 this district, now held by Dr. J. J. Dono
 hue, democratic appointee of ex-Gover
 nor Baldwin. The understanding wal
 that Mir. Bailey had the field to himsel
 and his friends had every hope that h,
 would land the appointment if Governo
 Lake would consent to displace the dem ocratic incumbent Governor Lake would not do that. so Mir. aBiley did not ge
 the place.
 Such incidents do not. of course. creat any excess enthusiasm among Norwicl
 republicans for the renomination of Gov
 ernor Lake.
 For the reasons stated there Is likewis a good deal of lukewarmness here towar I Chairman Roraback, whether or not breaks out into open hostility. Ther isn't any sign yet of an absolute brea f with the state chairman, but 1t rathe looks as though there was an outsid , chance for the insurgents to accomplis s something here if they are able to mak any showing in other parts of the stat

Green food is an important factor in helping | 10 keep egg production at its maximum. | Ordinarily where hens are on range or confined to yards the nice tender shoots of grass which are plentiful in the spring have become woody and consequently it is necessary to supply some sort of green food to take its place.
