RESPONSIBILITY OF SELECTING TEACHERS. From time to lime The Free Press has taken occasion to discuss tho importance and responsibility of the eelec tion of teachers for the public schools, and to emphasize the need for greater consideration of tho qualifications rathir than the "how much will he or she cost us" plan. Touching this vital question." the University News Let ter cf this week's issue has quite a pointed article under the caption, "Hiring Teachers." The News Letter pro pounds the following questions in introducing its article: "When you start out looking for a new teacher, Mr. Su perintendent or Mr. Committeeman, what do you have in mind ns qualifications? Are you looking enly for someone who will agree to keep school at forty, forty Ive or fifty dollars a month? Are you looking for some one who can come to you at a low price because their parents live r.ear and she can board at home? Are you looking for a teacher who is primarily a member of some MOOSE IN NATIONAL CONVENTION TODAY (By the United Press) Mooseheart, 111, July 22 "Howdy, Pap!" This expression of Moose recogni tion took on new 'and deeper meaning here today when three thousand del egates and ten thousand other mem bers of the Loyal . Order of Moose met for their 28th national conven tion. Moosche'art V the home of five hundred prphancdlMoose children and today they brought lumps into the throats pt iTap," and tugged at his heart strings in a different way than he had ever before experienced, when anyone called to him, "Howdy Pap!"

Tho News Letter wonders because some com- an(j pans to fus8 witn the munities put up with the teaching material that is foist- Democrats on state and national tick d upon them. Under certain accepted standards of ets this fall, at its meeting here to- teaching many a so-called teacher would be .indictable for mal-practiee, very. aptly says the Newt Latter, Unquestionably in the past teachers have been selected because of some family connection or otner like influ jnce, that were not qualified to teach and when those jpon whom the responsibility for selecting tho teachers lid a grievous wrong to their communities by placing the responsible duties of teaching upon Incompetent and tnqualifled people. Happily we believe there la a tenden :y, gradual though it may be, to better this condition. At 'east, our observation is that the progressive communl ties aro adopting tho policy of fitting the salary to the teacher rather than the teacher to the salary. No tax payer wijl object to his school committeemen selecting eompetent and thoroughly qualified teachers and paying inch tacchers commensurately with the service required, when he, tho taxpayer, takes into consideration that the teacher has to do with a very Important formative period jf his child's life. Every parent ahbuld desire to see the best qualified teachers of the highest character employed and should uphold the hands of their committeemen in pursuing such a policy. .: - WHAT OTHERS SAY , RESPECT FOR LAW AND ORDER.

Malaria, the dis ease i transmitted by this insect pest, has been a, more deadly foe to civilization than all the untaught tribes of savages that have overrun decadent nations. "Are you permitting mosquitoes to breed about your housa and grounds? June and July have been rainy months and during such seasons enough mosquitoes are hatched in an old tomato can to make your wholo family miserable every night "Sometimes drain pipesbecome clogged and then tin roofs and gutters make an ideal place for the mosquito to increase and multiply by the thousands.
