Little Woman From Iowa
Farm Belt Named Presi
dentHas 29 Years of
Experience As Teacher
DENVER. July 8. (API A ken
wittfd little woman with trim ankles
from Iowa's faini lands laid small
hand to the throttle of the nation's
biggest educational machine today.
But that hasn't made Miss Agnes
Samuelson of Shenandonh, Iowa, for
get, she smiled, that she Is still at
heart a "country school ma 'am."
"At first I was thrilled by tne news,
then I sobered with the thought of
the responsibilities and the hard
work that Lie ahead," said Miss Sam
uelson, whom the national educa
tion association elected Its president
for the coming year In closing Its
convention last night.
Then, determinedly, she said she
hopes to help steer the N. E. A. to
ward "new frontier." rural educa
tion. "The country schools and the K. E.
A. must be brought closer together,"
she said.
Has Definite View
Small of stature and placid of dis
position, Iowa's superintendent of
public Instruction yet has definite
convictions.
She thinks, for one thing, that
"children really like to go to school."
She regards schools as "service sta
tions on the highway to life." She
contends children "should not be al
lowed to grope around but shown the
way to freedom through discipline."
Miss Samuelson. who succeeds Dr.
Henry Lester Smith of the University
f Indiana In her new post, dlscu?ed
some of the tasks she said are facing
the N. E. A.
One "Is expanding education from
heth ends."
"sPs'Tfl got to drop that Idea that
dsicatton is a flve-to-2l year term."
fio said. "This nation needs educa
tion for the children now looked upon
M too young to go to kindergarten
nd for adults for whom school days
Vsfcd many years ago."
For Flexible Curriculum
fehe urged a "flexible curriculum,"
which would permit children to take
the subjects that; are nearest their
hearts and Interests.
"We mustn't put the same trade
mark on every child." Miss Samuel
son said.
The new president was a striking
figure In a trailing blue net dress
and blue and silver openwork slip
pers. Her dark hair becomingly bob
bed close to her head, Is threaded
with gray, her direct eyes are blue,
her chin strong.
She doesn't smoke cigarettes, ihc
said smilingly to a question, and
doesn't "care to talk about women
teachers who do."
"That's a matter of Individual
wishes," she snld.
She enjoys the movies. If the pic
ture Is "interesting or taken from
some good book." and has no favorite
classroom subject.
"I taught In country schools so
long and on so many subjects that
I guess I like them all." she said.
Miss Samuelson. who began ter
teaching career 39 years ago In a
schoolhouse rear her home town,
thinks education, tn venturing Into
. new fields, must not forget estah
II shed principles.
"Character has never been reversed
In any court nor declared unconsti
tutional," she said.
