MISS STINSON, STATE CTA PRESIDENT,
SPEAKS TO TEACHERS OF MOORE COUNTY
Miss Nell E. Stinson, president
of the North Carolina Classroom
Teachers Association, was prin
cipal speaker when the Moore
County Classroom Teachers As
sociation, a division of the North
Carolina Education Association,
met Thursday afternoon in the
Carthage High School auditorium
with the local president, Mrs.
Anne Tomlinson, presiding.
Taking as her subject “Stock
holders in a Great and Growing
Concern,” Miss Stinson reviewed
the growth of the teaching pro
fession through its organizations,
the National Education Associa
tion and the North Carolina Edu
cation Association, and pointed
up the many services of these.
“Just as we support the profes
sion, so shall we succeed in
many activities in which we are
engaged,” the speaker declared.
She emphasized that it is the re
sponsibility of every teacher to
have being a good teacher as his
or her highest goal, stressing the
point that no teacher can fully
realize his Or her importance and
possibilities in the field of edu
cation. In closing, she urged the
teachers to accept the responsi
bilities and challenges which are
theirs.
Miss Stinson reported on the
MISS NELL E. STINSON
Classroom Teachers and their
contributions to the profession,
emphasizing the fact that Moore
County teachers had voluntarily
given $75 to UNESCO for sup
port of the Arab secondary
school in Libya and that at pres
ent their unit is at the top of the
list in gifts to this cause, which
is sponsored by the International
Committee of the State Associa
tion and the Classroom Teachers

Dawson Speaks At
Kiwanis Meet On
School Problems
Public schools, of today are do
ing a better job of educating than
they have ever done. The most
serious problem facing public
education is scarcity of teachers
for the future, what with pupil
enrollment in North Carolina in
creasing by 30,000 a year.
Dr. Amos Dawson, superinteh-
dent of schools in Southern
Pines, talked on schools in gen
eral and in this community in
narticular before the Sandhills
Kiwanis Club on Wednesday.
The luncheon meeting was held
in the HoUywood Hotel.
Dawson discussed what people
want and expect from schools,
and what Industry expects. The
latter, he said, emphasizes the
need of a good general education,
rather than one to fit graduates
for a particular industry. Man
agement tells the educators that,
given a well-rounded boy or
girl, they can and will train ^m
or her for available jobs. ^e
manufacturer does place empha
sis on mathematics and science
in that general education. ;
He reported that tests here in 1^
elementary school had shown' -t^
pupils well ahead of .the natidijal
average. Also, that the 'th^ee
schools in Moore county, Aber
deen, Pinehurst and Southern
Pines, which supplement St'^e
funds for their suppbrt, appear, to
have a higher rating than ,the
county’s schools, which are hot
locally aided. The State suppprt
