TOO MANY DUMB TEACHERS IN U. s,

Greeley, Col.--There are too many dumb" teachers in schools of the United States to assure proper education of pupils. accord ing to pr George Willard Frasier. president of Colorado State Teach CTS college.
 Most teachers have a warped idea of the importance of their own particular subject or sub- .jects," he informs. 'No subject is very important. It Is the child that counts. The development of the child's spirit Is the sacred duty of the teacher.
 "Too few teachers see this.
 "The teacher must be intelligent. It takes real brains to analyze the personality problems of all the pupils in a room. It takes even more intelligence to guide each pupil so as to achieve the greatest development. We have too many dumb teachers in America"
