v Woman Teacher Will Not Go
The Hon Philander P. Claxton, commissioner
of education predicts the disappearance of the woman teacher from our rural schools by 1930 as the result of a plan he has for replacing her by
the man teacher.
He would provide adjacent tohe school house a residence for the man teacher and his family
and a small farm with the aid of his pupils, who will thus" receive education in agriculture while
increasing the teacher's income by their labor.
Judgment on the general merits of the plan
is left to the reader, with confidence that it is in no imminent danger of being widely adopted as the result of any clamorous demand from the rural population, and with equal confidence that Mr. Claxton gravely errs in assuming that the woman teacher must eventually go. The woman teacher will not go. She holds her post by the best of all possible titles her natural and proved fitness for it. If there is any occupation in which woman
has proved that she is not only the equal but the superior of man, it is in the teaching of children.
For that task one must have a patience that
is not only beyond the reach, but beyond the comprehension of most men. One must have an in
stinctive understanding of the nature of childhood which men seldom possess and which most women have.
One must be, in brief, not only a teacher, but
a sort of mother as well to these dawning intelli
gences and expanding characters; and not only
a sort of mother, but a wise sort of mother who knows how to correct when correction is needed.
As a man looks back over the dusty road of life there are few figures that stand out and claim his gratitude more powerfully than that of
the woman teacher of his early years. He real
izes now, with a touch of reminiscent tenderness
and wonder, what she went through to give him
the foundations of the education he enjoys.
In those days he might have thought her a
trifle irritable. Today he wonders how she man
aged to stand it. In those days he might have
thought he would have liked a man teacher better. Now he knows that no man could have per
formed the task so well. In those days his sentiment toward her might have been dislike. To
day it is nothing but gratitude.
Whether she was in the bloom of young womanhood, or one whom her girl pupils, when they began to "let down" their skirts, referred to as
"the old maid," he remembers her with affection
and respect.
uod Diess the woman teacher! The country
needs her, childhood needs her society and the state cannot do without her, and any plan that
contemplates her elimination is doomed to fail ure in advance. Chicago Herald.

It has three lines of forts protecting it and cannot be taken without great German losses. While the Belgians and French are giving way inch by inch, the whereabouts of the English expeditionary force remains a mystery. An official announcement given out by the British war office denies that the English are engaged along the Belgian-French position now being attacked by the Germans Heretofore it had been believed that the British troops were in Belgium.

ALEX ROSS National Open Champion 1907, aayti "Tuxedo, cool and mild, is essentially the smoke "thai satisfies. Many of my fellow golfers agree with me in giving preference to Tuxedo."
The Perfect Tobacco for Pipe and Cigarette
It's' worth your while to try Tuxedo. Especially if a sensitive tongue prevents pipe smoking. Tuxedo positively cannot bite not even if you smoke pipeful after pipeful, as many as you can crowd into a day or a week. Tuxedo is made of only the finest, choicest, selected leaves of perfectly aged Burley tobacco. It is made by the original "Tuxedo
rrocess which removes every trace of bite and sting and develops all the wonderful mildness, fragrance and flavor of the Burley Leaf in a way that no other brand of tobacco has ever successfully imitated.
