Page Six GOLDSBORO HI NEWS January 25, 1935 TEACHERS ATTEMPT TO AWAKEN PUBLIC (Continued from page one) criminated against as state employ ees was brought out by Miss Susan Fulghum, who spoke on how the recent legislation has affected the school from the standpoint of the teacher. As a striking example she stated that teachers were granted no sick leave nor even a workman’s compensation in case of injury. Comparison of the schools of North Carolina with those of other states given by Miss Kate Smith, secretary of the association, showed that North Carolina ranked 41st in the total cost per capita in 1930- 31 and 44th in current expense and that decrease in the teachers’ salaries has been 31.4 per cent in North Carolina while in the other states only 13.9 per cent. Janitors are now paid only $21.90 a month. Miss Lelia Cobb in telling how the recent legislature has affected the schools from the standpoint of the child, said that the shortened school term means a year and a quarter lost to each child who is now in the second grade if he is graduated under this system. The State do£s not offer a cent for re placements of equipment in the schools and less than 2 cents a child in appropriations for the libraries. Crowded Classrooms Miss Dowtin, Miss Moore, and Miss Freeman told how the short ened term and crowded classrooms are affecting the efficiency of their teaching. In the Grammar School more than a thousand children are enrolled with only 25 teachers. Miss Ida Gordner told of the ... exc'^ssive teaching loads which t^ j great pains m its work b I school teachers are carry .ig. 1. iddition to their heavy load of teaching, the extra-curricular ac tivities such as clubs, debates, spon,soring classes and entertain ments must be carried on by them. For example one teacher is teaching 195 pupils each day and sponsor ing the sophomore class. Mrs. Wilkins, speaking of teach ing as a profession, declared that probably next to the ministry teaching has the greatest spirit ual reward, since it deals with children. Miss Margaret Kornegay, chair man, gave the main objectives of the organization. These are to improve the educational facilities in North Carolina, especially in Wayne County, to focus the atten tion of the people on the present trend of education, and to aid the teachers.

To help the public to know the aims and achievements of high school training. 2. To advance the cause of uni versal education as the cornerstone of democracy. S. To raise the level of high school education by publicizing its great advances. 4. To increase high school en rollment by providing aid to the financially underprivileged and by adjusting the course of study to demo cratic needs.

Librarian, held a delightful “open house” in the li brary, Thursday, December 6. About twenty members of the faculty attended. John Gay Britt, a junior, was awarded honorable mention among the contestants of the southeastern states in a recent national current news contest.
