Public hish schools will be short by 15.000 teach ers when th efall term opens, accord ing to estimates by A. O. Neal, of the bureau of education. The bureau re cently conducted an extensive in quiry among more than 7,000 hieh schools in the country. These schools now employ 65.857 teachers and will require 17,275 new teachers in the fall to provide for the normal increase in enrollment and to take the places of those who are leaving the schools for other work. Mr. Neal considers that this propor tion fairly represents the general con dition in high schools throughout the country, and he estimates that a total of 25,978 places must be filled before the next school term begins. The visible supply at present does not approach that number by far. A canvass of colleges and universities to ascertain' what number of gradu ates would take up all teaching show that of those who will adopt this call ing 1,630 men and 4,742 women will choose high school teaching. On this basis it is estimated only 16,620 members of this year's gradu ates from higher institutions will teach in high schools. The differ ence, 15,358 places, must be filled from sources whieh are not now ap parent, or that number of classes will be without instruction. The threatened shortage is twice as great as the total number of teach ers in New England, and zreater than the number in .New York and Penn sylvania combined. School boards" everywhere are he. ing advised to strengthen their forces in every possible way, by raising sal aries and improving conditions as well as in other ways. La Mode Inc.
