WASHINGTON COMMENT.
I Ij
It's, a very funny world! And there
are a lot of very funny people in it.
Seme of them are located in Atlantic
City, from which municipality of joy-:
cus vacationing comes the news that 5
the superintendent of schools has as- 5
# sembled his feminine teaching staff 1
and warned them , doubtless with the *
gravity due so serious a subject, that J
they must not bob their hair if they
expect to retain their jobs as purvey- 1
ore of information to the ycuth of (
Atlantic City. 1
The cogent reason alleged for the
prohibition is that bobbed hair is "not 1
dignified." !

superintendent with such a fund of '
* knowledge, and to set so high a stand-'1
i ard for teachers. Curious people may 1
wonder what will happen to a teacher
4 with hair naturally short, or one who
has to have it bobbed because of fever.
For, of course, if short hair is undig#
nificd it is undignified, regaidless of
the cause of said indignity; unless,
* indeed, it is proposed to put an 0. K.
label on natural short hair or short
hair acquired for medicinal reasons. 1
R would be a matter of some interest
to know this official's views
upon sport shoes, sweaters, short
skirts, Atlantic City bathing suits,
the reading of Freud, Sunday mov>
ies, and chewing gum, and his ratiocination
regarding textbooks, training.
ability to teach, personal sympathy
with children and standing of
classes under the non-bobbed-hair
would certainly be worth hearing!

an anxious world the probability that
the Vatican will send a note to the'
heads of the delegations to the Genoa
conference, which will set forth,
wr ong other things, the views of Pope
Pius on the necessity of a lasting
peace and the belief that economic
reconstruction can best be obtained
by universal disarmament.
The devout Catholic will find in this
cause for jubilation. The average
reader will recall the peace policy
of the Vatican cjurinfg the war and
wonder, if the several pronouncements ^
upon the subject before, during and
after the conflict had no effect, what
particular result is expected from
this npost recent proposal. The limi- j
taxioir of arms conference at Wash- ;
ington accomplished 3ome things?it j
didn't accomplish limitation of land
armaments, simply because the nations
were not ready for such a step j
and it was found that they wouldn't
do it!,
If they wouldn't do it then, will they
do it because the Pope says they
AnH if tViav trnn't. urKaf is
going to be accomplished by the
Vatican statement that they should?

Rev. Harry F. Hubble, Presbyterian
pastor, of Buffalo, N. Y., says "all
churches should install dance halls."
He argues that where therg is a
"dance hall evil" the way to correct' (
it is not to get rid of it, but to grab I,
it and put the church into it.
If there were a few mere ministers ,
with so broad a viewpoint, there j (
would be less churches which fail to j
hold the young man and young woman ^
who today seek diversion where they ^
can get it?in the church, with the j
"* church's wholesome influence, if they
can, but diverson anyway, church or *
no church! J
It's a long, long road from intoler-11
ance to sanity of thought. We jailed j
people for kissing their wives on Sun- \
day but a few score of years ago. j'T
When all churches lead the world in j ^
tolerance, all the churches will lead!
the world in influence.

OFFICIALS
DISCUSS TEACHER NEEDS
STo Shortage in Number of Teachers,
But Many Lack Proper
Training.
Washington, April 17.?That the
shortage of teachers, which became
so acute during and shortly after the
>var, is a thing of the past as far
is numbers is concerned is well shown
jy the Bureau of Education statistics,
rhat the shortage has been made good
it the expense of quality of the
teaching force is stated by reaerai
Commissioner of Education J. J.
Tigert. He believes that vigorous
methods must be used to raise the
standard of education and training
required of teachers, which was lowered
during the war because of inadequate
salaries which were attractive
to partly trained men and women.
Representative Towner, of Iowa,
whose name is associated intimately
with the Towner-Sterling bill to establish
a department of education,
points to these statements of Mr.
Tigert as but another argument for
the establishment of education in the
government on a department, instead
cf a bureau, basis. He points out that
illiteracy can not be overcome by untrained
or half-trained teachers. It
is contended that the inspiring influence
of a federal standard of qualification
to which teachers might be
expected to conform before they would
be considered eligible as members of
the staff of state schools which received
federal aid, would do more to
raise the level of teaching than any
other thing. Mr. Towner emphasizes
the fact that the Towner-Sterling bill,
when law, will not attempt to control,
but to advise, in educational
methods, and will no more interfere
with the free expenditure of state
funds for state educational purposes
than the department of agriculture
interferes at present in state agricultural
methods.
. i/
NOTICE. ~
The State Board of Education at
its last meeting ordered that the regular
spring teachers' examination be
held at every county courthouse Friday,
May 12th and Saturday, May
13th. The examination will cover
primary licenses?first, second and
third grade, and general elementary
licenses?first, second and third grade.
The examination for high school
certificates will be held later. It is
hoped that trustees of. high schools
will endeavor to employ college graduates
mostly.
All applicants will have to take the
examination both days, half of the
examination being given each day.
No teacher can secure a certificate
on one day's work.

County Superintendent of Education.
