TALES OUT OF SCHOOL
State Department of Education
THIS MAY SURPRISE YOU
Did you know that the liberal arts
professors have charge of the
education of Georgia teachers for
three fourths of their college de
gree work? The colleges of edu
cation get them only for one
year or less. Here’s the way it
works — and this .may be news
to you and the neighbors: Say
Mary Jones plans to be a high
school mathematics teacher. The
first two years she is in college,
she takes the general education
courses that everybody else takes,
no matter what they plan to be.
Then she must have a year in
mathematics, her teaching field.
All that, mind you, is taught by
the professors of mathematics and
English and history and other
such subjects. Then, in her fourth
year, one whole quarter is given
over to practice teaching, as part
of a doctor’s education has to be
in internship and a lawyer’s in
moot court. Now, listen with both
your ears in this next sentence:
of the 7 professional courses
which she is required to take
ONE-ONE, take note — is actual
ly a course in METHODS, which
there’s been so much fuss and
fury about. The other courses are
in things like the psychology of
the child and how children learn,
and the history of education, and
other such things. She takes ONE
course in how to teach whatever
she is going to teach. Do you see
anything unreasonable in that?
If you want the details of these
courses, all you have to do is
let me know.
PREDICTION — I have no
crystal ball, but I would bet that
the salaries of really GOOD
teachers in the U. S. 'will double
in the next 10 years. The public
will pay SIO,OOO to teachers worth
SIO,OOO But they won’t pay a
dull teacher nor a lazy teacher
nor a mean teacher. They think
these are overpaid at ten dol
lars a week. What’s more, teach
ers like that shouldn't be in the
classroom in the first place.

NO PRESSURES ABOUT
THAT ENCYCLOPEDIA NOW -
We’ve heard a lot of talk about
your being pressured to buy a
certain kind of encyclopedia be
cause that is the one the school
wants your children tp use.
There’s not a word of truth in
this. Any good encyclopedia is
fine. If this pressure, continues,
the encyclopedia involved will be
dropped from the Georgia Li
brary List, so our State Library
Committee recommended recent
ly. If you need a copy of this re
solution to show the salesman
who high pressures you, just send
me a postcard.

years of teaching service among
them — and still in their prime!
Miss Lillie Payne is in her 30th
year of teaching and her 18th
year of being a teaching princi
pal at Benedict School. She grad
uated at North Georgia College
in Dahlonega. Miss Beulah
Payne, sth grade teacher at
Benedict School, is a graduate of
the University of Georgia, and
has taught 22 years. Miss Artie
Payne, first grade teacher at Fish
Creek school, also graduated from
the University of Georgia, and
has taught twenty-two years.
ASTONISH YOU? — Did you
know that not so long ago we
had twelve hundred school dis
tricts in Georgia? Now we have
197.
WHEN YOU PLAN FOR THE
FAIR THIS FALL — It seems
early to be talking about it but
some people make their plans
early for county fairs. I wanted
you to know that the NEA (ad
dress — 1201 16th Street, N. W.,
Washington D. C.) has a very
fine new bulletin titled “Educa
tion Goes to the Fair.” This
would be very helpful for you
when you begin to plan with
your school and community to
show what education is doing in
your community.
SHINY RED APPLES to these
Georgia schools for these bright,
shining doings; the Turner Coun
ty Board of Education had a
dinner to honor the top ten honor
students in the four high school
grades on Honors Night, their
parents and teachers, reports
Supt. J. A. Holloway Jr. Bless a
Board that honors brains! ... A
fellow teacher, introducing Mrs.
Dwight Tabor, Crisp instructional
supervisor to the Cordele Rotary,
said, “You can’t see what she
does, as you can see the team win
or the band play, but I want to
tell you that nearly all of the fine
things that have been done in
this system in the past three
years came about because of
things that she helped us do.”
HOW MANY SCHOOLS IN
GEORGIA? — Suppose somebody
asked you how many schools we
have in Georgia. Would you come
within a hundred of the right
answer? Well, here it is: we have
1,931 schools in this state. That
is 1,386 schools for whites apd
545 schools for Negroes.
WHAT’S THAT ABOUT AN
ONION, NOW? — While your
children are reading this sum
mer, give the upper elementary
ones Onion John by Joseph
Krumgold and the tots Nine
Days to Christmas by Marie
Hall Ets. These two are the win
ners of the annual Newbery and
Caldecott awards for distinguish
ed books for children. Your
youngsters have the only eyes
they’ll ever have. Don’t let them
waste eyes-and-mind on trash.

therefore, to cite all persons con

tion, and receive Letters of Dis
mission on the first Monday in

Miss Audrey Morgan, family
life specialist, Agricultural Ex
tension Service, says needs of old
er people are very similar to
those of younger people. Older
folks need to love and be loved,
they need useful work to do, a
place in the world, and economic
and emotional security, Miss
Morgan declares.
Engineers at the Agricultural
Extension Service say a well
managed farm pond will yeild
150-200 pounds of game fish per
acre annually.
How Much
Some businessmen look upon ad-
vertising as an expense. When
expenses must be cut, the ad-
vertising budget is first to
come under the knife.
The trouble with that method
is—it just won’t work.
The fact overlooked is that
newspaper advertising repre-
sents only a fractional part
of the cost of goods sold.
Advertising is the instrument
which brings the greatest returns
when it is intelligently planned.
Advertising becomes expensive
when you don’t use enough.
It’s like failing to lubricate
a piece of valuable machinery.
You save the cost of lubri-
cant, but eventually you have
to pay the big repair bill
and production losses while the
machinery i s idle.
