(Continued from lint page.) i I re not going to be satisfied with teachers of low standard to rating To give an idea of the trend of opm ion, last year there were employed in Haywood county nine teacher with second grade county certifi cates. This year there are Ave em ployed. It is my opinion that in an other year there will be no school in the county that will employ a teach er holding anything less than a State certificate. If, therefore, there arc any teachers hold non-prpfeipional certificates and who want to remain in the ranks for another year, my advice is to seek dillig'ritl to raisei your certificates to a higher class, cr retire gracefully from the profes sion. There is ayways room for the progressive- teacher, but hardly standing space for the standpatter Supervision. This is an age of efficiency, which is another name for supervision. Ev erybody who puts a dollar into ait enterprise wants to Ree the opera tions of that enterpHse so supervised that it will give the greatest possi ble return for the expenditure made Large business oncerns spend an nually enormous amounts of money for the supervisioin of their employ tea in oraer u make tn output o: (he plant adequate b th in quantivy and quality. The busincrj concerns have long recognized the greiu valao of such service and have increased irom year to year their appropria tions for such expert supervision, Educational leaders have been slow in recogmzinjr the ana!oirvbetveen the administration of big business and the supervision of schools, ff pervision in business pays, then the same will hold true in the contl.c of the largest business the state is engaged in, namely the training of more, Jhan three-fourths of a million children each year in the elements of good citizenship. Supervision of schools is comparatively youthful in North Carolna, but there is a healthy growth, and it is thought that not many years will pass before every county in the state will have one o more expert supervisors to assist tho county superintendent in the man agement of the schools. This is one of the objectives for Haywood county in the immediate future. The -atti tude, of the teacher toward the su pervisor should be one of open hand ed cordiality'- and most generous re sponse. I am confident that, when we shall have expert supervision of class room work as an auxiliary to the county superintendent's work, per' haps the coming year, will welconie the advance step and heelp to make it altogether a glorious success. The Compulsory School Law In counties that .have superintend ents of public welfare, the .burden of the enforcement of the compulsory schqol., law is laid upon the welfare department of the county. Our couu ty, however, has no superintendent of public welfare and the burden of the responsibility is laid upon the county superintendent. The county super intendent, however, must rely upon the teachers and school officers for cordial support, or the purpose of .he law will be defeated. I, therefore, call upon the teachers to give me the best assistance iin your power to th end that this law may1 be enforced In the first place see that the census is taken properly and compare your attendance frequently with the cen sus cards. Besides, make dilligenf. inquiry of citizens of the community for any chiildren who nre not going to school, or of families that have moved into the community. Neglect on your part in this particular may bring the law into open disrespect, Exhaust your own efforts in endeav oring to get children into school, o: in holding them, and when you have done so and still you are Unsuccees ful, call upon the superintendent and he will come to your assistance. Professional Spirit. Finally, for the nonce, let me ap peal to the professional spirit of each of you to make this year the best in the educational life of the county, Problems of poor hdusing, inadequate equipment, lack of co-operation, a you think. Perhaps yon will hare to overcome some handicap of that bind. But after all the success of a school is strictly up to the teacher. No doubt, the definition. Sf a 'school as, given by Jame A, Girflejd aji'Marlc Hopkins at one end of loVnd a student at the other end will readily occur- to you. . No amount of equip ment can acone ior poor teacclng.
