has its specialist. None of these are
more important than the selection
of persons to train the mind. “1
wish,” said the speaker, "to plead
with you who employ teachers to be
more careful in selection of teachers
for your schools. The opinion seems
to be prevalent tfiat a normal man
or woman will not teach. Their idea
is somewhat like that of the old
woman who, when asked how’ many
children she had. replied. ‘Three,
one livin?, one dead and one teach
ing school.' My honest opinion is
that 60 per cent of the money spent
in this State for teachers had just as
well be thrown to the birds. There
should be such a safeguard thrown
around the standard of teachers as
that these positions should be filled
with competent men and women.
The trouble is that so many people
teach as a stepping-stone to some
thing else. The State should pas
( upon the fitness of the teachers, re-
. lieving the county board of this
responsibility.” He believed the
i State should create an educational
1 commission to revise the school law
• of the State and to provide for the
| examination of teachers at the State
Capital or by a State board. The
average trustee in the rural districts
is not capable of selecting teachers,
fo the reason that they are men of
business and do not know anything
of the requirements of teachers.
“The best work of the country is
being done in the country schools.
There the environment is better
than in the city, and teachers do
better work in the country school.

Mrs Mary T. Nance Daniel was
next introduced and delivered an
address on the improvement of the
rural schools. She began by com
plimenting the county on her ad-
diton and improvement to the Court
House, and the town on the recent
issue of $20,009 bonds to erect a
magnificent school house. She said:
“We are here to-day because we
want to learn something that will
enable us to do more for our schools.
1 feel thankful that God has blessed
me with the opportunity to do some
thing for our country boys and
girls, and the country school teacher
has thatiwork to do as was so well
set forth in that magnificent soul
stirring address ^delivered by Mr
Garris. He is the best type of the
country school teacher, one who can
inspire confidence in the boys and
gprls of the country. We must have
Letter salaries for the teachers of
the country. Under the Garris Act,
if a community raises one dollar the
State will give two dollars up to fifty
dollars, therefore a school raising
this amount will have one hundred
and fifty dollars to lengthen the
term. Let us vote a local tax, put
good teachers in the schools, and
then put the children in the schools
to do this it will be necessary to
have a compulsory Education law.
There are over 54,000 while people
in the State, who cannot read their
names and over 15,000 voters who
cannot read the ballot they cast.
Over 26,000 white children are not
in the schools, it is therefore the
duty of our lawmakers to make it
possible for the children to enter
school. Then we must have better
teachers in our schools and better
schools for our teachers. If it is
- right for the town Co run better
