PRINCIPALS OF
STATE MEET
The Department of Principals
of the Palmetto State Teachers
Association met at the call of the
President W. H. Grayson, Jr.
principal of the Simonton Public
School in Charleston, S. C. The
meeting was called at Booker
Booker Washington School ui'd
was carried out with ah open
meeting from eleven to one and
a closed business session from one
to three-thirty.
Two featured were scheduled for
the opm session, which was attended
by teachers of the city and
county as well as by principals.
The first hour had scheduled as
its progran^ the discussion of the
sb&aji science, manual by Miss
Thomas of 'Ithe' State Department
of Education. An emergency
kept Miss Thomas from the meet
jng and in the absence of a substitute
-representative tlfis feature
wasT"hot "KtuT- The second hour
was devoted to a discussion, by Dr.
iosiah Morstf of the faculty of
the University of South Carolina.
Dr. Morse was both inspiring and
challenging as he visioned two
cotrasting worlds?one of many
years ago, a stable relatively certai
world, one for which a man
could prepare and look forward to
employment, look "forward to even
choosing his job. The world of
today was regarded as an uncertain
world, subject to change in
a moment, a world for which we
can prepare only with uncertainty.
Teachers of the pupils of this
j world, Dr. Morse said, must know
and be prepared to teach the eternal
verities, the things that d o
not change.
The business session of the prin
cipals followed immediately after
the open session and numbers of
problems common to the principals
of the State were discussed.
Expressions were received on the
proposed salary increase for teach
ers as recommended by Superintendent
Hope; the magazine
School-Work as a needed organ;,
the desirability of the administrator's
organization as a department
of the Palmetto Teacher^ Association.
The principals are of one accord
in their felt need for an 01ganization
among-heads of schools
working under the guidance o f
and cooperation with the State As
-cciation. A committee was appointed
to study the professional
publication in term*; of its possible
continuance by the State Asoeiation
[? this committee consists
of Mr. I. ,M." A. Myers, prinipa
1 of the* Manning Training
School, Mr. W. A. Perry, principal
of the Wavcrly School of Co'umhia
and C. A. Johnson, supervisor
of Negro Schools, Columbia.
A further suggestion has been
made to attempt to care for the
indebtedness of School Work. This
j plan is being sent the principals
and they are being urged to supI
Port it as a way to have any future
discussion of the magazine
not involve present indebtedness.
