Goddard with them Saturday at their meeting. There were also teachers present from the A. and M. school faculty and the city faculty to hear Mr. Goddard. Mr. Goddard expressed regret at not having all the teachers of the county present. He said he thinks it should be compulsory for ail teachers to be present when a State Supervisor comes. That his duty was to go out and meet teach ers and parents and discuss things in the survey pertaining to Georgia s deficiences. The reason that Geor gia is so far behind in educational attainments, because we have not been able to pull together for the same thing. In the survey of 1923 was shown that less than 5 per cent of pupils of High school age in Georgia en rolled in High schools. 94 per cent stop by the time they have - 'mplet ed the seventh grade. Mr. Goddard says the fnly cne way to keep children -.vol, create interest in children, »ead child by inspiration instead of by force. Inspiration is the only wav to guide unswerving and lasting loyalty. Many teachers holding only ele mentary license are attempting to teach High school subjects. It is against the law, yet we have thou sands of them in Georgia doing this How are we going to prevent it? is the question Mr. Goddard says we should solve. Many other things were discuss sd by Mr. Goddard and the talk was inspiring to everyone present. G. O. P.
