TELLS REQUIREftlENTS ! FOR PERSONS SEEKING TO BECOME TEACHERS J fesentiaV requirements for persons taking up the teaching profession and the attitude taken by many young people toward this work as the result of misinformation is .told in the following article written for a bulletin cf the National Education association, of Washington, D. C, by a member cf The Palladium's reportorial staff. Inconsistencies, misconceptions, and false illusions characterize the attitude of the public and of prospective instructors with regard to the necessary Qualifications for the teaching profession and the. nature of the work as shown by evidences of misleading information received by them. Applicants either possess only vague knowledge or , complete ignorance of the essential requisites in preparatory courses, methods of child instruction, time and sacrifice of personal interests demanded, remuneration offered, and chief of all, the proper spirit that Ehould actuate and govern both preparation and actual teaching Casual interrogation of the applicant reveals the fallacies of . this prevalent attitude. , He- seldom has any definite ambition 4n, .deciding to take up the teaching profession, but thinks fce would like-to teach for awhile. Since he has had one or two years jn College. Inducements considered are such a3 good pay for work that is not difficult, and which demands moderate hours five davs a week. Prefers Hiah School. - , -1 Such a person does not consider a normal school training necessary, but thinks lie can hold the attention of and properly instruct a roomful of children. He prefers to teach in high pchool since high school instructors receive higher salaries than do grade school instructors. He has not specialized in his course, but has entered upon a general college course, indefinitely aiming at a degree. In fact, a survey of his curriculum in college has more the appearance of a. box df as sorted educational bon-bons than preparation, for a vocation" of such vital importance and needing such high qualifications as that of educating. ; It' these' idea3 are incorrect, what may the young man or young woman who earnestly desires to make this his Hie, vocation, accept as true definitions of -the character and qualifications for it? Trained Persons Needed In the first place, although two years beyond that of high school training is the usual requirement for teaching in the grade schools, it Is not really enough because the methods employed in high school and college and with which the applicant is familiar, are very different from those successfully used with younger children. Teaching demands professionally trained persons, whose higher education has been directed toward the specific work of teaching. This means not only a broad scholastic foundation, scholarship in general, but professional equipment for a highly specialized work. Teaching, contrary to the common belief, cannot be undertaken successfully by anyone, but requires the best quality of mind and the finest kind of attitude toward the problems involved. - Teaching,: is not merely imparting to the growing child information and aiding it to learn to read, write, spell and use numbers. It is the much larger and vitally important business of giliding a growing, expanding human life. Since the influence of the teacher' in determining the character of that individual is inestimable, the work of teaching demands vision, self sacrifice, and great enthusiasm as well as skill in the technicalities of school work. Must Plan Work Teaching is not a five day a week, tix hour a day job. Successful teach ing requires the same spirit and the same disregard for hours or work as any other profession as law, medicine, dentistry, or engineering. A successful teacher carefully plans the day's work for the classroom beforehand, and, showing that she has her heart in her work, spends additional hours in extra curricular work. It may be visiting parents whose cooperation a pupil has difficulty in obtaining, in coaching backward students, in pursuing further professional studies, in attending conferences where there is an exchange of ideas and discussion of common problems it may be any or all of these things, for the true teacher will be found to be one of the busiest persons in a community, disregarding hours, sacrificing pleasures, and keeping fit for the work both physically and mentally.

Here's Good Advice: Relieve Your Fatigue With Sleep. Avoid Stimulants
THERE is nothing in the world so reconstructive as sound, refreshing sleep. During sleep the system rids itself of the fatigue poisons that have accumulated during the day. The food elements are taken up by the various tissues that require rebuilding nutriment It is important that you get plenty of health-bringing sleep. Anything that interferes with your sleep hampers and hinders you mentally and physically. A common cause of physical

But, given the specialized training, an applicant will have no dif ficulty in procuring employment, and he will find himself more than paid by the great pleasure of hard work and service, and by the thought of the contribution he is making toward the education and betterment of the students with whom he comes in contact. STOCK OF GASOLINE IS GREATEST EVER WASHINGTON, May 15. A new high record for the national stock of gasoline, increases in the price of which have been ordered investigated by the senate, was established April 1, according to statistics made public last night by the federal bureau of mines, showing supplies of the commodity on that date aggregated 854,232.000 gallons. The stocks on hand April 1 were approximately 47,000,000 gallons greater than on March 1. when the previous high mark of 807,000,000 gallons in storage was made. The April 1 sup ply, according to the bureau s figures, was 20 per cent larger than on the same date on last year and 36 per cent above the 6tored stocks ef April 1, 1920. The official figures confirmed statements made in the senate that present supplies and those of recent months were greater than ever before in this country. The increase in stored gasoline stocks came at a time when consumption was increasing, according to the bureau's figures, which "show that for the first three months of this year, 7 per cent more gasoline was used than for the first quarter of 1921, and 25 per cent more than for the corresponding three months of 1920. Farm machines to the value of $536,945,000 were manufactured in the United States during the year 1920, and all except $66,626,000 worth were sold at home.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEUKAM, KHJUMUISD, IND., MONDAY, MAT 15,
BOND SAYS DIVORCE RESULTS FROM POOR CONCEPTION OF HOME Lack of proper conception of home life, on the part of husbands, is responsible for 90 per cent of the divorces today, according to the statement of Judge W. A. Bond, who spoke in the high school auditorium at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon. The address of the judge was the chief feature of a program in celebration of Mothers' Day, conducted under the auspices of Harry Ray Post, No. 65, American Legion. "Men are usually to blame for the legal action that breaks up the home," declared Judge Bond. "Divorce strikes directly at the center and sanctity of the home. Woman is a home seeker and home lover. Usually when the home is broken up by the courts, the fact is due to the neglect of the husband, who fails to recognize woman's true function in life." The program was opened with the song "America," by the audience. A prayer by Captain Mater, state secretary of the Salvation Army, and a trombone solo by J. Don McDaniel, followed by an address by Capt. Mater were other features. Evans Sings Solo ' A song by L. Barton Evans, "Mother O' Mine," with Mrs. Eva Morrey playing the accompaniment, was well received. A recitation was given by Mrs. Neva Cook, and a song trio by three Salvation Army members. In his address, Capt. Mater touched briefly on the work of the Salvation Army in France, and stated that in peace it was the aim of the Aimy to help in a material as well as a spiritual way. The next activities of the American Legion are to come next Thursday when members of Harry Ray post will motor to Greenfield to attend the sixth district convention there. Dr. George B. Hunt of this city is district chairman. The Richmond delegation leaves at 7 o'clock in the morning. A number of machines have been offered for the trip and transportation is assured all members who will meet at thej k.. or r. building Thursday morning. Given Contract to Haul Mail For Local Office Thomas Joyner, of Newcastle, has been awarded the contract for hauling all local mail between the postoffice and the various transportation stations, it wa3 announced Monday.

Danings Prominent In Cincinnati Musicals Mr. and Mrs. William H. Duning of Cincinnati, former residents of this city, are attaining considerable prominence there through their musical ability, says a dispatch from that city.

George Koch chief of police, bought a setting of eggs some time ago from Patrolman Willis Jones, who special izes in Rhode Island Red poultry. The chief set the eggs two weeks ago last Tuesday, expecting to have a nice flock of Rhode Island Red chicks by the middle of this week. Last Tuesday he was astonished to find that one of the eggs had hatched seven days ahead of schedule and that it had produced a chick with all the body markings of a Barred Plymouth Rock. In addition to that peculiarity, the chick had the spoon bill and the web feet of a duck. The chicken-duck is showing every sign of health. LADY ASTOR IN CHICAGO CHICAGO, May 15.

Memorial Day, May 30, will be generally observed throughout the world this year, due in large part to the efforts of the American Legion, accord ing to an announcement made at Leg ion headquarters here today. The statement says: "Originally designated by theTJnion veterans of the Civil war as a particu lar Decoration Day for their fallen comrades. May 30 gradually has be come a day set apart in memory of all Americans who died for their country. Although it has long been the custom of many southern states to observe a memorial holiday of their own on April 26, the tendency to a uniform observance has been apparent since the World war. The Legion, composed of both the north and the south, officially adopted May 30 as its Memorial Day and posts of the World war men on both sides of the Mason-Dixon line have, for the last three years, simultaneously honored the dead of the Civil, SpanishAmerican and World wars. "When 'the Inter-Allied Veterans' federation, made up of World war veterans of France, England, Canada, Italy and the others of the allied nations and of which the legion is a member, adopted the legion's date for the observance of rites for the dead, May 30 became an international holiday, comparable only in universal observance to Christmas. This year it will be observed by legion posts and allied veterans' organizations in the following countries other than the United States: Canada, Belgium, France, Poland, Turkey, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, British Isles, Chile, China, Cuba, Guatemala, Japan, Peru, Porto Rico, Portuguese, West Africa, Santo Domingo, Spanish Honduras, India, Venezuela and in the Canal Zone, Hawaii, Philippine Islands and the territory of Alaska."

OHIO REPORT SAYS RAIN
BUT WAS HELP TO OAT AND WHEAT CROPS
. (By Associated Press) COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 14. The wet weather held back and delayed the planting of com still further last week, though much planting was done in many parts of the state, the weekly review of Ohio farming conditions, issued, by O. J. West, state-federal agricultural crop statistician says.. It is not uncommon to find farmers who still have a considerable acreage to plow, he said. The review continued: "The weather of last week is not without it9 compensation for the farmer who sowed oats, for the rains have been well timed for the crop, and also for wheat. Condition of young clover from this spring's seeding is good, and it is being favored materially by the wet.weather. In fact, the weather has been fairly suitable for all crops except corn. It is estimated by West that 13,000 horses died on farms in Ohio during last year, with a total loss of $1,300,000. The loss in cattle from deaths is estimated at about $1,750,000, and arose from the death of 43,000 ani mals. About 145JHX) hogs are estimat ed to have died during the year, with a total value of $1,450,000. "These figures of losses through deaths of animals on the farm necessarily only anroximate estimates, but they are useful in giving some idea of the enormous total of such farm losses." How to keep peace in the chicken house is told by E. L. Dakan, profes sor of poultry. Ohio State university. which are confined to the brooder house from picking at each other, eat ing toes, tails, wings and the like. According to Dakan, there are just two reasons for chick eat chick: Malnutrition, and overcrowding. "Malnutrition," continued Prof. Da kan. "is due to a deficiency of the es sential and vital elements for growth causing the chicks to pick at living objects. A drop of blood starts and satisfies this craving for animal food. Chicks confined to the brooder do not get grass, roots, bugs, and other food which nature supplies in the spring of the year. "Overcrowding in the brooder sometimes leads to cannabilism because the chicks may not get an even share of the feed given, and consequently! their hunger and craving for the element deficient in their ration, causes them to start the habit of picking at their fellows." , - Dakan advises that cannabilism may be prevented by using these measures : Keeping sour milk before the chicks from the very first, which will supply the ncessary animal protien. Feed chicks plenty of green stuff, such as sprouted oats and vegetables, when it is impossible to get them on range. When the habit has been formed, or the deficient ration fed for a long time, and an immedite cure is sought, fresh pork liver may be fed raw. Dig up chunks of green sod and place in the house. Turn chicks out of doors on every occasion possible even though it be for only an hour at a time. Do not try to brook too many chick ens in one flock. Three hundred, or; even 200, under one stove is enough for the average poultryman. I One hundred Jersey Black Giant' eggs have been purchased by the Ohio State university poultry department,) and this comparatively new breed ofi poultry will be given a trial to determine its practical value as a meat and egg producing fowl. Only in the last two or three years has this breed been pushed, experts in the poultry department said, and now j many of the leading shows, including the Madison Square Garden, are proCOUNTRY BUTTER QQ per lb OtC Clover Leaf Grocery 603 Main Phone 1587 M HI mi

Sunday saw the first public performance since 1910 of the world renowned pas sion play with the highlanders of this Bavarian village as the actors. In the wake of the most cruel and extensive war of history, the revival of the pag eant dramatization of the life of Christ came to an audience of some 4,000 persons in what seemed a particularly appropriate sequence to the conferences at Washington and Genoa. T hope the passion play will constitute a basis from which more friendly intercourse between nations will result in better international understanding," said Anton Lang, who plays the role of Christ. "To me there could be no better place for a peace conference than Oberammergau, with the teachings of its passion play." N Thousands of tourists are here for the passion play. Fully half of Sunday's audience was made up of Americans. The English delegation was next in size. The other auditors were Germans, Russians and Dutch.
