Toaehm Need *Baale Prtnetpteo* Teacher training institutions spend too much time tutag teachers whet to do and too little time ^nstflling the fundamental principles of education, according to Dr. Frank A. Butler, associate professor of education, at the Penxuylvania Stat* college. "Instead of telling future teachers how to make assignments, how to ask questions, how to gain attention, how to take attendance, and how to seat pupils, we should give them such basic principles a* the need for a goal, emphasis on individual differences, integration of subjecfc, and the importance of education as growth," Dr. Butler said today. Given native intelligence and a pleasing personality- toaefcers can be taught the science of education as they can be taught to drive a car, he said. Qwitoi of our tsnchsr training centers and evidences of poor teaching in the public schools show the need for a change in emnh »«« in educational counei. h> ha ington feed; 300 shocks of good corn; 20 tons'I coming 2 yrs. old. of good corn in crib; Farmall F-20 on j 2 sets of good harness, good collars, rubber with cultivator; M-D tractor | Hay, Grain and Machinery plow, new; M-D tractor disc, 7 ft This machinery is practically all tandem, new; M-D hay loader, new; j new.

The use of contour farming with contour buffer strips, 18 feet to 30 feet wide, and grass waterways not only helps to reduce soil erosion losses, but also makes contour farming much more satisfactory by reducing point rows and making possible turns in the contour rows and grass waterways. Furthermore, this practice permits cultivating the more productive parts of the field and leaving out those areas low in productivity, gullied or so steep that they can not profitably be farmed without excessive wear and tear on the ^machinery. - ' New Idea manure spreader; culti- 0 McC-D. 6 ft. mower with rtiireedr ^hWi-sapLeeTd Swta gdorinll Vtr Mai"l,eDr ;r us^te'terl ucks, 2'yearsol_d . wheel wagon, roller bearing; low! , YT n.e^ roll husker and silo wagon; cream separator; rubber shredder with cutter head; single tired milk cart. !r0w cultivator, nearly new; new Gehl Rubber tired wheelbarrow; fencing ! £ Letz mills with pipe equipment, barn equipment and milk- j .

This time tb« conduct at the war will be explored and obstensibly for the public good. The studied and sensational charge of Representative Maas, of Minnesota, tfhat we are losing the Pacific war him stirred his fellew legislators into action. The movement merely brings to a head persistent rumors that Army and Navy communiquies from the Far Eastern theater of war operations were misleading on the side of optimism. Many delicate questions of propriety of such an inquiry^ in time of war waa raised. It has been pointed out that the British Parliament was obliged to undertake a similar study. The difficulty" is that probes by Congress are usually for political purposes. As the elections are over for two years, this factor is not considered important. Of course^ at this time many "brass hats" will be scapegoats. Advocates of a searching inquiry argue that it can be conducted without revealing too much that the enemy does not already know. The Maas criticism was directed to the Pacific where he toured the , battle scenes for four months as a Marine reserve officer and had access to information not available to war correspondents and others. He also enjoys Congressional immunity from censorship. Some believe the investigates wlil at least squelch unsupported rumors now going the rounds as to relative successes in the Far East. From a purely psychological angle discovery of a bad situation in the fight with the Japs may offset what officials believe is a dangerous optimism as a result of initial victories in Africa. Next in importance is the settlement of manpower policies. A special Senate Committee made elahorate recommendations a few days ago. Opinion is that the Administration is disposed to take advantage of other methods before turning to Congress for authorization. Employers and | trade unions want to carry on a cam- | paign of education under the voluntary system before the government resorts to compulsion. Enlistments qre interfering with vital war production output as men, uncertain about their draft status or fearful of 'slackerism," quit for enlistment with the armed services. This employment situation is so grave that one leading aircraft factory expects to have 75 per cent women on their payrolls. Several drafts of an executive order have been on President RooseJT"""*1®11, . £lve a 81*>all tip to a fel velt's desk. There is considerable in-> w°rkm«,rr)an W^° discusses hls. tra agency friction abcut the tentative proposals.. It is reported that the proponents of a White House directive are agreed that the order should require the registration of all workers with the United States Employment Service and the hiring under this agency's supervision and regulations. Bound in the- tangle of policy is the old controversy of unionism. It is raised in the question as to whether a worker certified from a non-essential industry for transfer to ^ vital war job would be obliged to pay union dues before taking over the new work. The military services do not take kindly to proposals»to stop rcruiting and the likely transfer of the Selective Service System to the War Man- ! power Commission, 6 civilian war agency. Furthermore, the Commission's chief, Paul McNutt, is on a suspect list as ready to utilize the manpower issue as a stepping-stone to a Presidental nomination. Obviously, an ! executive order wil be at best only a I partial solution of this vital problem. I The average citizen expresses little i concern over the complexion of Con- ! sessional committees. Not so with the administrative Wing of the gov- i ernment. Their policies are shaped in many ways by the political and economic views of members of important ommittees through which their legislation is funneled. An instance is |h§ Treasury Department's interest in the personnel of the House Committee on Ways and Means as it will be constituted in the next session. Election upsets changed ten seats on this key group where all revenue legislation originates. It is seldom that Congressional freshmen land a place on this committee. Therefore, the selections of the majority and minority parties are of the utmost importance to Treasury planners. Though the Administration indicates it would like a new tax bill early ~ext year, the betting favors del?.y until the March 15 tax returns are iled and the yield known. The government is trying to extend its list of volunteers for payroll tax deductions without legislation. Over forty state 'egislatures will meet next year and search for revenue to keep the state machinery in operation. State tax col- '.ctions increased approximately 13 percent during the past year, and a ^cr.siderable number of states closed .heir fiscal years ended in 1942 with substantial surpluses. • that fact doesn't help a bit, especially here in New York where the general rule eeems to be to tip everyone in eight whether or not there haa been any extra service rendered. When the waiter who, haa brought the food I have ordered and then disappeared until time to present-tilt cheek. Anally does reappear, instead at kfetdng about bad service, I roeddx hand Wm a bill and ^when he comes bade with the change, I don't pick it all up. As I gather up 4mt bill* and silver, 1 can feel his eyes on me. The result is that I leave twice as much as I intentfed. On those rare occasions, when I have left behind a tip I thought in keeping with services rendered, I have sneaked out feeling like a criminal. • • • With hat check girls, I'm still easier money. I know full well that they can't keep their tips. What customers give them is passed right along to some concessionaire who has paid a high price for the privilege of hiring attractive young misses to snatch hats and coats. Or if the concession isn't sold, the tips are placed in a pool and shared at the close of business which means that the one who has rendered some special service splits with those who haven't. I know also that a parcel or -even a big bag may be checked for 24 hours at railway terminals, in subways and elsewhere for only a dime. Yet I see a quarter on the plate and promptly proceed to match it. That piece of money--I'm told that in some places, it is glued to the plate--really does something" to me. • • • As for taxi drivers, 1 am putty in their hands. Often I apologize for a tip less than a quarter, though the total cost of t}ie ride may be only 35 cents. More often, I tell the 'driver to keep the change from a dollar when I should get at least a quarter back. But strange taxi drivers, especially if they wear caps and sweaters, cow me. Going through Central Park at night 01 along dimly lighted - and lonely streets, I'm just Caspar Milquetoast. Gazing at the license bearing the picture of the driver wfcich must be posted in the cab doesn't hearten me either. You've seen passport and other identification photos of course. Those in New York taxicabs are even less flattering. No number on the chest is needed, • • * . • Taxi drivers, who use the stand near our house and who therefore know me, do even better. They tell me about their families and I just fellow private affairs with me, especially when he tells me that the wife or little Jimmy is having a birthday and that he has had nothing but bum breaks all night. Then too there are a number who have discovered my occupation. They feed me tales, some of which from time to time appear in this space. So a double tip. In the last instance, however, though the driver may not even have opened the door of his cab for me, I really have received something for my money.

If 1 had tried to tip the barber at home, he would have tossed me out of his shop. Hack drivers didn't expect tips. Two bits covered 'the entire cost no matter how long the trip. Hotel waitresses may have received tips, but you can't prove* that by me. No one ever tipped me for delivering the local newspaper to his or her home. In some cases I was lucky if I got the dime I had coming at the end of the week. In New York, I have taken a post graduate course.
