THE TEACHER'S REWARD
pt,—I would like to point out to." School Master's Son," in reply to his statement that salaries of teachers have so much improved since Victorian days, that his figures may perhaps be regarded as more or less satisfactory for such as have not graduated at a university. Those figures cannot, of course, be considered as fair pay for Praduates who have taken Honours in more than one school, ,and on whom well over four figures has been spent in obtaining the intellectual and mental equipment which is essential to the proper fulfilment of their duties. It is poor encouragement for the student who is anxious to give his best when qualified, and a-warning to such parents who are not in a position to endow their sons or daughters with private means. Head masters and head mistresses are few iii
number.—Yours faithfully, PATERFAMILIAS.
