MORAL TRAINING IN SCHOOLS.
No mure regulation or enactment can give moral training in the trua sense and meaning unless school teachers are representatives of the best elements in the comraunty. Many of them are, but as Mr .Macdonald admits, some teachers are utterly unfit to train children. It is regrettable to think how little improvement can be effected in this respect until there is a wider choice in the selection of teachers, which can only be attained by making the conditions premanently attractive enough to induce general recognition that the teaching profession is not only honourable in itself, but that it is treated as an honourable one by the State authorities.
