COITOEMMIXG TEAJKEM AMD
PATBON3.
The subject of teacners and their
boat ding places is one tnai has been a
problem ever since there has been a pub
lic school, and 1 suspect it will always
be one as long as the eachers are Ij
poorly paid. One reason that more me:*
are not tn this noble profession is that
they cannot make the living for them
selves and their families that their edu
cation and talents demand —they come
out of college full of enthusiasm and go
Into their rtrst school determined to do a
great work. But they must dress as well
as their patrons or the school will be
ashamed of them, they must give to the
various enterprises connected with the
school and the churches about them, they
also have obligations in connection with
the church that they belong to, and In
many cases there is some loved one to
assist. If the salary was a steady one.
no vacation to be provided for, there
would be more chances for the teacher
The merchant or farmer would think a
man crazy to shut up his store three
months In the year, but that Is what is
expected of teachers Yes. I often hear
people say that they may walk right out
of one school Into another, but it can’t
be done. There are few schools that do
not start In September or October and
run at least six months, and the better
class of neighborhoods want even longer
terms than that, and If a teacher should
finish a school and walks right Into an
other there is expense attached t*» ine
move.
A teacher’s education costs years of
time and hundreds of dollars, yet there
are some people so narrow, and generally
so igrorant as to think their time should
be paid for on the same basis as the day
laborer, and labor unions see that their
members have better wages than the
best paid teacher in the average public
school.
Men getting four, five and six dollars
a day would give one gasp and dron
dead at the suggestion that the teacher’*
••alary should eoual the stone mason,
•he engineer or the men In the black
smith shone, not to mention the owner of
farms and stores. Brains and their cul
tl vat lon count for nothing with some
people whose children are going to
school. Such parents seem to think that
the teacher, or any one doing mental
work, has an easy place. Manual labor
s their only idea of real work, and I
im in a position to tell you that I
wouldn’t be tn the place of any teacher in
these United States. A man or woman
In an office has one person, as a rule to
please so far as the rules are concerned,
a farmer has nobody (more’s the city
sometimes) and the merchant puts a
price on his goods and you take them or
leave them, he’d rather you’d leave them
if you are poor pay. but every child has
the privilege of going home and ’’telling
tales.” sometimes even the teacher's
good name suffers. The parents criticise
the teacher in the pupil’s presence and
tha lowers the teacher's influence for
ever after that.
It make* me alck to hear men and
women who had about three months In
school critlclaln<. finding faults with
methode that have been worked out for
all concerned by men and women who
have riven their Ilves to the problems
of education. “Boek learning" and
•’book farming” go hand In hand with
progress, and to neglect either one Is
to stamp oneself as a lump of raw ma
terial. I heard a little boy say that
every week he sold seven flve-cent story
papers, the moat lurid sort, in fact the
sort that could not find a place In my
home aa a gift, and sold one farm paper
for two cents. Those papers constitute
the sole reading matter for those homes
How can one expect much of the chil
dren that go from such homes? A
teacher knows tn a week's time Just
exactly the Influences in the homes of
every one of the pupils and farmers
that sneer at agricultural papers and
scorn the help of county agents are
the sort that run on a credit and are
literally owned by ths man that sup
plies them.
This is a plain talk, and one that Is
delivered with nothing but facts back
of it. I’ve gone through thta life with
my eyes and ears open, and one of the
strongest factors in my rqMntal make up
nas been, as ths phrenologist call It.
"eventuality”—to look for the cause of
every event —and ths thoughts 1 am
giving you today I’ve seen worked out
hundreds of times.
This chat Is getting over long, but I
must pay tribute to Darlina Bell's fair
statement of facts about the woman In
the bouse as well as the teacher's aide
of boarding. Girls are a Joy to me. I
have had some in my home ever since
I’ve had one of my own. and my mother
generally had some one to mother be
side her own children. I don't think
that mors than two of all who have been
under my roof have betrayed th* trust,
or tn other words failed to appreciate
the fact that I did every thing pos
sible to make them comfortable and
charged them as little aa possible. I
owned my home m Atlanta and a pro
rata of the actual expenses were all
expected of them. The two exceptions
were two who I took at greatly re
duced rates and tried to lift up into
better positions.
I havs been told of eases very dif
ferent. and I know a case where a
woman was asked to deduct every meal
taken elsewhere, yst that boarder often
brought In company that required more
attention than ths lady of ths house
could really give.
Not only are many farm houses small
and Inconvenient, but the most pleasant
person on earth has a longing some time
to be alone, and It la hard for the
teacher to have little children demand
ing attention when mind and body cries
for relaxation. Many mothers get the
idea that theirs are the sweetest and
most entertaining children on earth,
and would resent s teacher's going Into
her room and locking the door, she
shouldn’t have to do such a thing for
her room should be hers at least one
nour after she comes In no matter who

shares It with her. Then as Miss Bell
says the family like an evening, or an
hour or so together sometimes. I’ve
never had such problems for I’ve had
the sort that had good home training
and consideration of others is main
Idea of the golden rule.
Teacheraces, or the houses supplied in
some states, are fine if the salary is
sufficient to keep them up. but where a
teacher has to grade papers and visit
the sick and do all sorts of unexpected
things, not least of all having at least
one or two of the pupils to entertain
after school, there is not much time for
housekeeping. I’ve seen girls do co
operative housekeeping, but at least one
of them had spare time in which to keep
up the work that comes between 8 in
the morning and 4 in the afternoon. I
would like to hear from many of the
teachers. Not only theories but practi
cal experiences. There are teachers all
over the south, and some in the far
east, that take The Atlanta Journal and
we want to hear from several sections
of the country; also from tutors *ind
governesses. My heart is in the cause,
so believe me.
Faithfully yours,
LIZZIE O. THOMAS.

BOTH SIDES OF THE QUESTION.
Dear Mrs. Thomas: It is quite a
■rivilege which you accord to us to
allow us to express ourselves in your
columns. We also know that what we
say will be read, and in some cases it
will stir up thought. That is the im
,,ortant thing a* ter all. for every great
.r small enterprise was begun with a
nought.
What I wish to discuss now is board
ng teachers. The time is on now when
ome one will have to board the teacner
n order to have a school. No one is
.ery anxious, and very tew are willing
_ o do it. The fact that it is often so
nard for the country teacher to find a
toarding place is partly because the
arm houses are so small, and often so
nconveniently built, and partly because
he housewife is already overtaxed with
a ork.
Let’s first discuss this question from
:he teacher's viewpoint, for there are
■wo sides to every question. The teach
er thinks it is hard that tney are so
opposed to boarding her for she fully
expects to pay her board, and she feels
that she will not be any trouble or ex
. ense either to the family. She is leav
ing a comfortable home and friends to
go to a strange community to teach
the children, and she knows she could
do more efficient work and be happier,
too, if she could meet with a cordial
welcome from every one.
I have in mind a case where a young
lady went to a strange neighborhood
to tsach. There are no doubt many
others, but I will speak of this. She
was met at the depot by a patron, who
carried her to tho place they had se
lected for her boarding place. She
round everything about the place fault
lessly neat and clean, and the people
ne physical specimens; but that wel
come which wins half the battle was
■Hissing. After a long while the lady
ame into the room and greeted her
without a smile or the slightest sus
picion of cordiality. Sitting down, still
wearing her bennet, she besan: ’’They
11 had a most terrible time finding a
boarding place for you. I want you to
fully understand that I do not want
vou. and it does not suit me to have a
■ oarder. I have twelve children, and a
riother to look after, and that is about
•11 I am able to do. I am taking you
i ecause these other old women around
here are so rotten lazy they will not
ake you. and rather than give up our
chool I will take you. I do not want
•ou. but I will do the best I can.”
That is the teacher’s side, but the
oor, tired housewife deserves consid
eration. Thebe is no class of people.
ten nr woni*n v bltck or white, that has
to work harder than the farmer’s wife.
.Vords cannot possibly express the kind
of time some of them see. It Is work
and drudgery from before day away into
he night often without one single diver
sion, and sometimes without one word
>f encouragement from her liege lord
who has made her queen (?) on his
hrone. Taking one boarder is no real
nanclal benefit to her, and Is often a
tax upon her already overworked sys
'em. Even if the teacher does think
she will be no trouble, that does not
make It true, for In many ways one
extra person In the house makes more
teps to take. Even if the teacher were
10 trouble at all, it does not suit peo
ple to have an outsider always present
leading everything that is said. Besides
his. I am sorry it is true, but a lady
■mce told me that she would not take
he teacher if she were a young girl,
for Mrs. Sa-and-so and another Mr.x.
-'o-and-so had so much trouble with
the behavior of the teacher. She would
.x out with boys against her judgment,
"tid keep late hours, and dress very Im
-irudently. She said she would not
mind boarding the teacher if they would
et a settled lady for a teacher.
It is a pity that these things are
facts, but they are. The teacher could
modify the situation some herself by
onformlng to the regulations of the
r am!ly with whom she boards, and not
xpect them to be able always to meet
ter requirements She might be prompt
at her meals, and wait upon herself all
hat la possible. And she might stay
n her own room to do her school wort,
Trading papers, etc., to keep from invad
ng the privacy of the family too
inch.
There are a few teacherages In Geor
ta. I wish some one who knows some
hing about them would write about
hem. In some states there are many
n my next letter I will tell about wha:
havls read about some of them. It is
ny opinion that is the solution of the
■roblem of boarding the teacher.

Yankee Doodle, According to W. A.
Haynes.
Yankee Doodle took a saw with pa
triot devotion.
To trim the tree of liberty according to
his notion.
CHORUS..
Yankee Doodle on a limb like another
noodle
Cut between the tree and him,
And down came Yankee Doodle.
Yankee Doodle broke his neck, every
bone about him.
And then the tree of liberty did very
well without him.
The limb, the saw. and carass too, of
this silly defunct hero.
Now giace the walls of Lincoln’s halls
A type of a modern Nero.
Yet still the tree of liberty blooms
bright o’er fair Mt. Vernon,
And if the Yankees seek its shade our
powder quick will burn ’em.
Its branches spread o’er Dixie land, its
mountains, vales and waters.
Its roots are nour shed by the tears of
southern wives and daughters.
Davis is our president, the wood
en hams he slices,
Aleck Stephens helps him in that sport
one of his smallest vices.
He takes the hams from Davis’ hands,
the shoe-peg rice he mixes.
With wooden nutmegs and brick-horn
flints
And cooks them up for Dixie’s.
(The Yankees were continually re
proached for wooden hams, shoe-peg
rice, wooden nutmegs. etc., as their
fake stuff 'sold down south).
Then on boys, on to Washington and
tie that snarling poodle
Whose feeble prop is Winfield Scott,
his name is blinkadoodle.
Our gallant bands with hearts and
hands, ready at call of duty.
To hang with cords, the northern
hords. whose watchword Is beau
, ty-booty.
Yankee Doodle doodle doo,
Yankee Doodle doodle doo,
Yankee Doodle doodle doo,
Yankee Doodle do do.
(To be used as chorus except last
verse.)
What a run they had of this Yankee
Doodle! and the children and the ne
groes kept it going in the kitchen and
backyard. Our people were actually
wild with excitement in 18*51.

PRATER FOR PVBLIC GOVERN
MENT.
In the Civil war time the south had
many days of prayer, oftentimes with
public fasting. I lived through that
time. I know what I am relating to
you. We had public rejoicings after
bloody victories also. There could be
nothing more pathetic than to see the
mothers of the Confederacy on their
knees, praying for their sons in the
army and on the firing line. There was
no discount on their earnestness. They
prayed like one prays for life, for res
cue, for safety against invaders. 1 at
tended many of these meetings.
But the Confederacy collapsed The
whole thing went to pieces. Prayers are
going up in Germany and England today.
Agonized m- iers are praying over there
for their sons who are In bloody trenches
and In aircraft, where the mortality is
excessive. The kaiser declares he is ap
pointed of God to lead Germany to final
victory. He believes it, or he wouldn’t
say it. Yet he mav be as much disap
pointed as the poor mothers that prayed
and suffered In Confederate times. I
am trying to keep things straight in my
mind in regard to prayers for public af
fairs. I am Inclined to think we waste
a whole lot of time on subjects that we
are trying to turn our way by our pub
lic petitions.
The Heavenly Father from Hts eleva
tion sees the end from the beginning.
He understands our desires, but He does
not give us what we have prayed for.
Just as an impat'ent child hers its
earthly parent ot give it something it
crates very much, but which must be
denied. My creed has become a short
one in these lengthening days. I be
lieve the Lord brought me here for some
good purpose. He Is too good to bring
me here to punish me because rulers,
kings and potentates like war and abso
lute power In ruling over me. 1 am try
ing to say. “near Lord. Thou knowest;
take care of thy helpless child! Maybe
I do not know what to pray for.”
SOW FOR FE’.CE AND BROTHEMT
RTNDNESS!
The election is over and I wish we
nly had one in ten years. It unsettles
•o many things and makes doubtful so
nany valuable reforms!
But there will be quiet for four years,
ntil the next race for president is start
d In 1920.
Possibly you and I may not be here
ic see It, but it will doubtless be only
. similar thing with varying results
or the next quadrenlum.
President WHson has been given a
'. ery great honor In re-election and
while the next four years will be mo
mentous In the settling of wars and the
iflV'iiltles of settlement In our own
ountry, we will remember God reigns
nd overrules she destinies of nations!
The time is here for union, peace and
imity on American soil. Unless there
thould be co-operation and amicable set
'lement of disputes between labor and
anltal we may have difficulties to meet
iltogether unforeseen and unexpected.
<nd absolutely unknown heretofore to
tmerican presidents.
Therefore It Is well to keep tn mtnd
he need for co-operatton and genuine
ctrfotlsm In the near future. Perhaps
he election disappointed a grat many
eople, but we should never forget that
ut one could be president, no matter
ow the votes were counted, and It is
•atriotlc to accept the result in good
a I th.
Let us be good Americans and stand
for the pencable results of civic
Ighteousness and h-r>»herly kindness!

Gc.lu.en Text. —“I am not ashantel of
the gospel; for It is the power of God
unto salvation to e'-o r y one tout be
-lovsch.” Homans 1:16.
Three months on the Island of Me
llta carried Paul and his tellow-travel
ing companions through the winter
months. As navigation began to open
up the latter part of February or the
first of March, they took ship on an
other vessel of Alexandria which had
wintered in the island whose protecting
idols were the Geminii, and sailed from
there to Syracuse. On account of ad
verse winds, they had to make a circuit,
and finally came to Rhegium, on the
straits. But after one day the south
wind blew, which was favorable for
navigation in the direction in which
they were going. On the second day
they reached the mainland and landed
at Puteoli. Here they found some
Christians, who wanted them to stay
with them for seven days, and then
they left, traveling to Rome by land.
During their stay word had gone out to
the brethren at Rome, so that when
they came near the city they found
some Roman Christians waiting for
them al the market of Appias, and
again at the Three Taverns, whom,
when Paul saw, he thanked God and
took courage. That Paul was discour
aged would not be unusual, but the
probability is that the presence of these
brethren from Rome only added to the
joy which he already had. Instead of
supplanting sorrow with joy, or dis
couragement with hope. When they
reached Rome the centurion delivered
the other prisoners to the captain of
the guard, but Paul was allowed to
dwell by himself with a soldier to
guard him.
be was there only three days when
he called the chief of the Jews together
for the purpose of finding out what
their attitude toward him would be. He
did not know whether tn facing the
emperor he would have the antagonism
or the support of those of his own
race. He stated to them the reason
for his arrest and his appeal, but again
disclaimed any lack of loyalty to the
law « to the fathers. The Jews had
had no word from their brethren in
Asia, who seemed to have dropped the
matter after they found that they could
not get his blood in Caesarea. The
curiosity of these Roman Jews was ex
cited, however, and they expressed a
desire to hear him at his earliest con
venience.
He saw his opportunity for giving
them the gospel message, so he ar
ranged a day when he would receive
them. A large company came together.
He expounded the Scriptures, he testi
fied as a witness, and pleaded with
them as a preacher to accept the gos
pel as it was freely offered to them
in Christ Jesus. I am Interested in the
three words which are used—“expound
ed, testified, and persuaded." They
give us some intimation of Paul’s
method in presenting the message. His
1 message was based upon the Word of
. God. He expounded it, explaining to
I them this prophecy and that and the
other one which were fulfilled in Jesus
of Nazareth. He testified, giving the
, experience of an eye-witness, showing
i hat these prophecies had been ful
filled And he pleaded with them, ap
pealing not only to their Aeasons, but
also to their emotions and’wills. Thus
One mistake many women make
in buying coffee
You know how hard it is to get a coffee which really C.
satisfies you. You know how seldom you can find a
coffee which has the same fine taste and strength J

when you buy coffee, you are careful not to make *’"Tie tw
the mistakes so many women make. Read the ex- |
periences below —you yourself have undoubtedly had j
one or both of them.

Arbuckles’ Coffee is such good coffee that way back in —-
the sixties, when all other coffees on the market were loose | I
and unprotected, Arbuckle Bros, protected theirs in sealed H| If
packages. This sealed package keeps the coffee’s strength, l • L/; i4wti "
and guards it from moisture and store odors. Most important
of all, it makes it easy for you to be sure that you are getting
the same good coffee every time you buy.
The second mistake women make
Old coffee with new names
Are you continually being offered the same old coffee under
new names ? Under all sorts of new blends?
Did you ever stop to think of the hundreds of coffees £’ cjk m
which come and go on the market? And that all of these have
tried to turn women away from Arbuckles’Coffee ? // ~

When you get Arbuckles’ Coffee you get an entirely dis- j-T

—in no other coffee can you get the same good flavor. The Il .

roasting and in packaging it, gives you an entirely different •
coffee from any other on the market.

he reached the three-fold side of their
nature. The result of bis work was
that some of them believed and others
did not. Finally, turning to those wno
did not believe, and they were in the
majority, he quoted to tnem from
Isa.aa as follows; “Go unto this people
and say. Hearing ye shall hear and
shall not understand, and seeing ye
shall see, anu not perceive; for the
Heart of this people is waxed gross and
their ears are dull of heating, and theii

and should be converted, and 1 should

them an opportunity; he could go no

trial occurred, but we know that for
two more years following this he dwell
hi his own hired house, and while he
was not privileged to go out ano

hear the message from day to day.

preached to the Jew first, and when
they would see and not see and near
