The peak of the reaction against the teaching- profession has been reached, according ro Dcjin B. E. McProud of Nebraska Wesleyan Teachers' college. That the present dearth of teach ers is due to the rule of the mob is the belief of the dean, who went on to say that a few dissatisfied per sons resigned, influencing many other teachers to follow their ex ample. "The tightening up of money and consequent decline in business will send people back into professional work," said the dean. "Teaching is really one of the nicest professions for those adapted to it. Shortage Soon Over. "Teachers have been reasoning that the apparent dearth in their line will raise the wages and after a time they will come in as candidates for fine paying jobs. All this will change in a very short time. Two teachers' employment bureaus in the middle west inform nie that they have a lot of waiting candidates. I do not think there will be as many schools closed as superintendents are saying. "The greatest shortage will be special teachers for special types of teaching, as in vocational schools and for vocational subjects in the regular schools." Dean McProud'' stated that he re gretted the tendency shown lately by some schools to lower the standards in order to gft sufficient teachers, pointing out that this was largely due to failure of teachers to look upon their work as a life-long profession. As proof of this asser tion he gave the following example: Few Teachers Sticky "In a certain locality in Missouri there were 9,830 teachers. Sixty nine per cent of these were teaching for the first time, 21 per cent for the second year, 7 per cent for the third year, 2 per cent for the fourth year, and only 1 per c t for five or more years. The con; .Jons that produce this state ff affairs are economic as well as financial. I do not see how we are going to get around it unless you can make school work profit able and eccrkomically stable. ,"I have a sort of feeling that schools ought to be put on a type of education more worth while and then we can command our pay for it as for everything else worth while. Our public schools do not educate us for life as we must live it in the community." Hastings College. Workln drawing for the Liberty me morial hall were received at the college office from the Chicago architects this week. They d-oriDe the bulldlnit In the term of a gigantic 'TV' The head of the T being the front or the building and the leg of the "T" the rear extension. lhe frontage La lit) feet and the depth i 108 feit. The building, in addition to a chapel seating 300. ample office" for the pres iiVnt and treasurer, rontsina a complete equipment for the home economics de partment, consisting of five rooms. There will also be 18 clans room with six science leborntories. A very large apace will be auiluhle on ihf upper floor for the ac commodation of the valuable natural tclence collection. The greater part of this collection la th A. M. Brooking col lection, almost complete, which Is noted for many fine specimens, but especially for its collection of Nebraska birds. In connection with each of the class rooms, there is a teacher's stiidy. This Is a unique feature of this building, and a most valuable one. It provides a room tcr conferences with students and the ac ccmmodatlon for special libraries related u the subjecta taught by the various teachers. The equipment for the home economics 'lepanment is complete in every respect. It will afford opportunities for the most practical training of students in all linen it home economics, whether such stu dents become teachers or home makers. The furniture and equipment of the laboratories will also be of the latest and best type. The architects have submitted the plans and specifications to bidders in va rious parts of the country,, and it is ex pected bids will be in the hands of the trustees before the end of this month. U is hoped that wrrk upon the founda tion will begin in September. The fall term will open on September 15.

Cultivation of Self Reliance Essential, Says Omaha Employer The policy of encouraging self-reliance develops men and makes them more reliable, an Omaha employer says: "I have found in hiring young men and women that young people with a business college training more readily understand their duties and respond quickljj to encourajr nt, and as a rule they are stickers, h with us is a valuable asset. The fundamental purpose c.t the modern business training school is to provide the student with a thorough knowiedR of business. Employers have come to realize that a high grade office assistant or ste nographer is cheap at almost any price. It is the duty of the em ploye to not only perform his work efficiently but also prepare himself for any opportunity that may arise. Boyles colleges in Omaha and Council Bluffs offer an unsurpassed curriculum. Their business training courses have proven to hundreds the value of being prepared when the big opportunity presented itself.
