This is to be remarked not only of Boston and Massachusetts, but of most States and large cities. Of the six supervisors in the Boston department, only one is a woman (Miss Sarah L. Arnold), whose salary of 13,850 is probably one of the largest paid to women in any occupation or profession in this country. But the most strenuous efforts to break down the disparity of rank and compensation of women instructors, as compared with men, have invariably met with overwhelming reverses. Women are rigidly excluded from the masterships and submasterships. In Boston it is impossible for a woman to be elected to one of these places; it is declared to be against established policy. It matters not that the woman is college-brehas demonstrated her capacity to teach and manage, stands higher than any man in the competitive examination and holds a masters certificate. A man and a woman teaching, side by side, precisely the same subjects with of a equal ability, in the class-rooBoston grammar school, are not thought to be of equal worth on account of sex. The man receives a maximum salary of $2,340 and the womans maximum salary is $1,212. The man is eligible for promotion; the woman is not. d, SALT LAKE FUR CO.v CHAS. EBERT, Prop., 79 E.

Women's Clubs at Jacksonville October 20, 1897 1 by Miss Frances Le Baron of Elgin, Chairman of the Committee on Education . The public school problems that have been met by the Womens Clubs of Illinois and by them reported to tively interested in them. Since the woman is, by the laws of nature, the mother, we are not surprised to find that when she appeared upon the public arena she soon turned her attention to the welfare of the child, a hitherto neglected factor in the human economy, and, on account of her interest in the child, she first investigated the schools. And here her domestic instincts, active through the long centuries, led her to scrutinize critically the condition of the school rooms and cause her to exclaim with Mr. Dick in David She finds was them. that in Boston there were school buildings that had not been scrubbed in forty years, and that in many western towns a more generous use of soap and water would greatly improve the appearance of the school rooms. One is horrified since the germ theory has taken so strong a hold on the public imagination, to picture what must be the condition of the air in rooms in which the germs from all the impurities gathered through a quarter of a century are floating about. So throughout the land, the school rooms are being scrubbed and the windows washed and in some instances public charity funds are used to pay for this work, instead of being paid out as charity, thus relieving the exchequer of the school board. Again womans same instincts lead her to consider ways and means of making the school room attractive. The: ball has just started to roll in this direction, but the impetus is so great that this problem will soon be solved, Cop-perfiel- d, |
