"Everyone admires my hair, new
that I'm doing it the now way that
nearly every really smart girl. I know
to using," says Miss Agnes Traney,
popular dancer, new appearing in the
Breadway hit, "Rio Rita." “My hair
doesn't need shampooing more than
once a month, now. My scalp feels
better than it ever has felt. I have
gotten rid of all my dandruff. My
hair is much easier to arrange, and
it stays that way. AU I do to hoop
it like this to put a few dashes of
Danderine on my brush every time
I use it. It’s wonderful how Dan-
derine adds to the beauty of your
hair, makes it look so silky and lus-
irons."
Danderine is not oily. It removes
the oily film from each strand of
hair and restores the natural color
and lustre. It dissolves dandruff,
cleanses and invigorates the scalp. It
is delightfully fragranced. The big
bottles are just 83e at all drag stores.
Beautiful, smooth, gloaming hair and

tise touch lag: It ia by moa to teach-
era* colleges and in too departments
of education in our lending univer-
sities that most of the books on the
professional side of education have
been written; it was through the la-
si stance of these same authorities that
professional courses have come to be
evaluated equally with purely acad-
emis courses; it is by those same
agencies that most of our school sur-
veys have been made* it was largely
through their instrumentality that
we have today a recognised “profes-
sion of teaching."
Need Profesalonal Training.
Dr. More lock strongly advocate ■
that every teacher from the smallest
school to the university shall have
had a definite amount of professional
training. “The end and aim of all
teaching should be to make life bet-
ter for the sake of society and not
for the glory of the individual. The
teachers’ colleges believe that per-
sonal contact with students is fun-
damental in all export teaching; that
a scientific knowledge of heart and
mind growth and of individual pos-
sibilities counts more than 'more
academic training.”
Answering what qualifications are
demanded by the new standards. Dr.
More lock defines them thus. He
is the teacher who knows the laws
of health so well that he can discover
defects of eyes sad all other physi-
cal ailments which can be remedied
in time to save the child much mis-
ery aad loss of time; who knows
child psychology so well that he can

agresment the poor school teacher
was tortured for many years, and not
until very recent times did he even
dare raise his hand to inquire the
name of his torturer or why he was
being punished. The teachera’ col-

and expensive and only the favored
few could obtain it. It tended to-
ward elass distinction and produced
an educated aristocracy.
Teacher training institutions were
among the first to challenge the wis-
dom and justice of those hidebound
curricula. Morelock asserts and were
foremost in sensing the vital rela-
tion between scholarship and social,
moral and spiritual problems. "Schol-
arship is fundamental in edueation,"
said he, "but wo need a new defini-
tion of scholarship."
“The rise of modern industrialism
sought to transfer the emphasis upon
curricula from cultural uplift to eco-
nomic necessity. This effort natur-
ally gave rise to a dash. The ex-
ponents of cultural education formu-
lated their theories in well-phrased
definitions; the public contemplated
with intolerance the whole scheme of
education, often uttering a ery ft pro-
test at the products of our schools.
Te appease this ery, specialized
schools sprang up all over the coun-
try. Opposed to this great army
stood the universities, panoplied
against all forms of Phillistinism.
Between these two extremes the
teachers’ colleges have occupied, a
happy medium; they have sought to
apply to life and the solutions of its
problems many things which the uni-

well, president of the Stephen F. Aus-
tin State Teachers’ College at Nacog-
doches. made a study of the Texas
institutions. He found at that time
there were 32,000 public school teach-
ers in Texas and that only M per
cent were college graduates of teach-
ers’ colleges. It was thus shown that
the teacher training institutions were
furnishing two-thirds of the college
trained teachers. And this in spite
of the fact that practically all of
the other colleges of the state, pri-
vate, denominational and state sup-
ported, have certificating privileges.
This situation leaves a large field
for the teachers’ colleges, as /Dr.
Birdwell sees it, to furnish to ths
schools college trained teachers wha
have been trained in methods of
teaching.
Dr. Birdwell argues that the public
schools are entitled to a high stand-
ard of teaching and that this is given
by the graduates of the teachers' col-
leges. He believes, therefore, that
the Legislature should provide those
institutions with sufficient funds for
plant and instruction, if the children
of Texas are to be given the very best
education possible.
The Ideal Standard.
An ideal standard is described by
Dr. Birdwell as follows: He says
that to do the best type of work
there is needed one critic or expert
teacher with a group of 30 children
for every six college students who
arc doing practice teaching. The 30
children would be those in the prac-
tice or demonstration schools con-
ducted in each of the eight state in-
stitutions where the student teachers
get practical class-room experience,
# well says that practice work is
the “very heart of the teachers' col-
lege” and that it should bo more ex-
tensively used so that the period of
eperimentation may bo reduced-
With ouch experienee the graduate
tekcher should do acceptable work
frd the very first day of service in
a 'school.
Texas' teachers’ colleges are of-
fering one year of sub-eollege wort
equivalent to the work of the
eleventh grade of a standard school.
Thia, is for the underprivileged, but
/ too necessity for this is gradually
disappearing in this state.
How the teachers' colleges have de-
veloped ie convincingly shown in the
fact that they offer instruetion in 22
different departments, including ag-
riculture, biology, business adminis-
tration, chemistry, art, edueation,
English, French, geography econom-
ica, Latin manual training, mathemat-
ice, music, physical edueation, phy-
sics, rural education, Spanish, read-
ing, demonstration school work, in-
cluding kindergarten, primary, ele-
mentary Md high school types.
Supervisors are also being trained
in those institutions in order to
see that Texas spends wisely its
money for education and that it ae-
egres proper returns from the invest-
sseat. Careful inspection is also
given to publie school work not at
present supervised.
It was noticeable that the classes
in business administration were large
in all of the institutions. This is
in response to tbs demand of the pub-
lie schools for mgro teachers to give
business courses such as in stenog-
raphy, bookhooping and the other
commerelal lines.
Child Activity.
Children’a libraries, ehildren’s
bosks and children's theaters and
work benches were visible in all the
colleges. Every form of child activ-
ity is provided for even to feeding
milk to the toto in the kindergarten
every day. This familiarizes the
student tenchers with the ways of
children and enables them to select
books for the use of children Md to
build up worthwhile libraries in the
rural communities.
Each of the eolleges has a refer-
ones library ranging from 12,000 to
25,000 volumes, all carefully selected
for nos in the wort of training teach-
, da"d ■ oou
i -
, ______________gf the Bel
' Ros State Teachers’ Collage at Al-
* pine. He says "the tencher” eolleges
have been foremost in shaping
th eurricula to meet the demands
ofhuta; they have eenvinced the pub-
Ue that there inaueha thing to a
teehnique of teaching, a knowledge

detect Orii tendeneles of heart Md
mind in efme to save hops and wirs
from bosomtag eriminal later in
life; who, through ekill in hie art,
can develop life into Ite bigbeet pos-
aibilitles."
It was Dr. Morelock’s poaition that
many non-essentinia were taught and
that many great truths, vital to Mr
happiness and succesa, are learned
after leaving collega, inquiring, “how
many thiigs we have forzetten about
which our professors raved and rant-
odT" Ho then proroods M follows:
"The teachers' colleges have heen
largely ipatrumental in humanizing
our curricula and the teaching pro-
cess. They have made life and its
problems the basis for a choice of
subject matter in our achools; they
have argued for clearly and well an-
derstood objectives for all they teach
aad for the methods tt teaching this
subject matter."
He furthqr argues that if the
they have been instrumental in rais-
ing the requirements for certifica-
tion, especially in the primary and
intermediate grades; they have es-
tablished definite objectives ia their
program of teacher training, and they
have employed their beet energy and
intelligence in demonstrating their
values, sad they are today furnishine
a large per eent of the profeasionally
trained teachers for our public
schools."
Changes in Curricula.
As a prelude to the foregoing sum-
mary r Morelock briefly reviews
the history of education saying that
there was a time when the universi-
ties of Europe turned to the litera-
ture of Greece Md Romo for cultu-
ral inspiration and for many years
a knowledge of Latin, Greek, math-
ematics Md philosophy was eonsid-
ered the indispensable requirement

Originally teaching in toe United
States was an occupation without
systematic training, but in 1838 earns
the agitation for normal schools and
by IMO a total of 13 had been estab-
lshed. Since the Civil War these in-
atitutions have so inereased that
there are now about 300 in the United
States, one or more in every state,
and Texas having eight of full colle-
giate rank.
At toe outset these normal* wore
to furnish teachers for the elemen:
tary graded only, but they expanded
to meet a larger demand. By 1918 a
total of 70 normal schools had either
secome teachers’ colleges or normal
colleges. By 1023 there were 100
members of the American Associa-
' tion of Teachers* Colleges with 31 on
the waiting list, and by 1027 S3 of the
latter had been admitted.
