Mr. Barton said. "Teachers must recharge their s torage batteries by a ttend:m ce a t. i:' Ummer schools. by at­t endance in conventions, and by vi s­iting among teachers as well as keeping informed of the newest methods of the educators of the day:" . Yale J ones. assistant superinten­dent. of Tulsa. is the most. well read and informed ma n of the day when it comes to school. It has always been Mr. Jones' policy t o invest $10 each month in th!! best books that he can buy concerning the teaching profes­sion.

Most t eachers think that is too much to put back ·into the teaching. business each montH. Business men ha\'e to invest more than that and the many promotions that Mr. Jone3 has had would make one think that $10 a month has been well spent.
