Nation In Need

tenn to insure a proper education
Although teaching is already the
largest Of all professions in the
United States, employing some
2,125,000 persons, there is a defi-
mite need for another 100000
teachers TO replace those leaving

ing, to eliminate part-time seS-
sions, TO give instruction and SER
vices not now provided, and TO

t.rued.
Because April is being observ-
ed as Teaching Career Month in
Sidney and across the nation, this
is a good time to review our own
situation with regard to teacher
supply and demand.
The pressing need for teachers
has come about because of the
continuous high birdh rates since
the 1905, the introduction Cd
public school programs for the
mentally and physically handicap
ped, the strengthening of specia,
services, in the public schools, {
