Thus once the status of the teachers is raised, that of the schools is raised, and hence that of the nation. From this we can all soe the importance of the position of teachers. We are told that the Minister of Japan, on being naked by the Kaiser to give his impres. sions in his visit to Germany, said that what impressed him most was the splendid management of the primary schools and kindergarters. From this, William - I-know that he was a great man and that Japan was not to be slighted.
