By the way, here Is a cu* little story fro n Neil Morgan’s rlunin in the San Diego, Calif.. Journal: "When a police reporter, sitting down to his typewriter on a rare occasion, a^ked a pal how to spi ll ’pinochle.' the pal spell1 it. then read ovei the report r's shoulder: 'John Smith today reached the pinochle of Ids ambition when. . . ' ”

This is what brought on !hc foregoing lengthy introduction. one of the great troubles wit 1 , modern edheation is ’’frustrated

teachers.”

A drab teacher, he satd, is like

a bad apple in a barrel. Many teachers, according to him, kill initiative, enterprise and any other outward growth in a child in order to make the

child obedient.

One great trouble, he said, is that the teacher is ptaced on the same exaltd plane as the clergyman or the physician. And why are teachers frustrated? Here arc his words: • "Because their initiative is smothered by too rigid supervision. Public meddling in a teacher’s personal life also is a cause Many teachers cannot relax with a cigarette because prejudiced school trustees frown on smoking by teachers."

Maybe so; maybe so. -Personally 1 think teachers arc fnistrn ted because uiey don't get enough money. They have to be exemplars of everything that is g<,„d and noble in their community, yet they don't get as niuca pay a i the plunbcr who fixes their bathroom faucet and about whom there certainly Is nothin" "frustrated.” As an expert M.
