would not sell the suits for any
amount of money.

Student Teachers
Rated High by
Several Educators
According to Hany K. Dorsett of
the MerediA College education de
partment, a checklist for de
termining how Meredith • trained
teachers compared with teachers
from other institutions was sent to
sixty-eight principals and super
visors. The areas to be compared
were teaching efficiency, under
standing of children, participation
in community activities, and teach
ing the Christian and democratic
way of life. The following results
were obtained:
(1) Teaching efficiency
Above average: 79 per cent
Average: 20 per cent
Below average: less than 1 per
cent
(2) Understanding of children
Above average: 76 per cent
Average: 23 per cent
Below average: less than 1 per
cent
O) Participation in community
activities
Above average: 68 per cent
Average: 32 per cent
Below average: 0 per cent
• . 4) Teaching the Christian and
democratic way of life
Above average: 85 per cent
Average: 15 per cent
Below average: 0 per cent
Df. Dorsett pointed out that the
Meredith record is indeed one of
which to be proud. Normally, the
above average and below average
ratings are expected to be equd
to each other, with the highest per
centage falling in the average range.
Yet, over two-thirds of the group
polled gave Meredith-trained teach
ers an above average rating in each
of the four areas.

Fashion Features
Pat Griffin and Sandra Searcy
are seen tearing open boxes
containing wearing apparel
from Mac Josephs’ new spring
collection. Thinking and
planning ahead for those
early spring days, these two
girls have chosen versatile
suits which can be worn for
almost any type of occasion.
Exclamations are heard from
her friends as Sandra displays
a navy suit ensemble which
is made of a polyester and
rayon material simulating
denim. Sandra’s suit, con
sisting of a straight skirt and
a blazer type collarless jacket,
can be modified by substi
tuting a double pleated skirt
or an overblouse with a red
and white checked ascot.
For further possibilities with
the suit, Mac Josephs offers
red and white checked vests
and long sleeve blouses of
the same fabric. In addition
to her new "Tara tweed”
bermudas and slacks &om
Mac Josephs, Pat has also
bought a suit of the same
material. While the suit can
be “dressed up” with a more
tailored jacket, the all
purpose blazer coat with the
suit can also be worn with
the bermudas and slacks.
Sandra and Pat are especially
delighted with the practicality
of their new fashions and are
equally pleased that they
shopped at Mac Josephs
where there is such a wide
clothes selection from
which to choose.
