do not glvo ' enough time and
thought to the employment of be
ginning teachers, and to the sup
ervision of them when they come
Into the , school system. I have
several .suggestions to make. The
school officers should -know the
college from which the teacher
comes. When a teacher applies
for a position In the public school
system, and seems to have the per
sonality und bearing und training
jthat- the Job demands,' the next
question should he, 'What type of
I college nnd what type of Instruc
tors trained this teacher, and how
well are they equipped to do that
Job,' 1, believe' it is', very necessary
for the employing officer that
trained the uppltuunt." ,
