W ants Good Educators T he Pacific un iv ersity professor said that he had heard a great leal of criticism of the profession bv the teachers them selves and said that he was vitally in terested from a selfish standpoint because he w anted his ch ild ren to have »he best teachers. The shortage, he said, is not the result of the w ar because men and " o m e n started leaving the te a c h ing profession prior to tlie w ar The bottom of the bucket has been sc .a re d and the q u ality of some of the teacheis is bound to be worse u n d fr such conditions, he laid S alary schedules of some of the larger schools are proving a h a n d i cap w ith the result that some sm all schorls, realizing that thev have to na.v m ore, are outbidding them , asserted Rowe.
