The boy had no more sense of wrong doing than the gypsy child has when he steals, because stealing is the custom of the tribe. And yet, his disgrace is advertised from one end of the country to the other, while no mention is made of the teacher who was responsible for his training or his lack of it. Siu h teachers are not confined to Missouri, by no means. We hav? plenty of them in North Carolina. If the school authorities were so inclined, they might, without employing expert detectives, be able to discover that in some schools in this state plagiarism is the common practice; that the majority of compositions handed in by pupils are copied from books and magazines and Sunday school papers. if they were diligent enough in inquiry. they could uncover cases of teachers who actually connived at wholesale cheating so that their classes could make excellent showings in the county examinations and thereby enhance their own reputation as teachers. Fortunately, the great majority of teachers are honest. As a former teacher 1 can testify that the general level of honesty umong teachers 1b higher than in almost any other calling, with the possible exception of the ministry. Hut the teaching profession, like all others, has its unscrupulous few whose misdeeds bring discredit upon the great nuriiber of hard working people who are interested primarily iu the training of children and only incidentally in building their own reputations?Yorkville Enquirer.
