Miss Hoopes Discusses Three Poets: Hardy, De la Mare, and Stevens
Miss Helen Rhoda Hoopes, of the department of English, gave a lecture Thursday afternoon on three contemporary English poets; Thomas Hardy, known as the oldest of English poets, being now in his 87th year; Walter De la Mare; and James Stevens, an Irish poet.
De la Mare worked for some 20 years in the London office of the Standard Oil Company, but Miss Hoepe admitted being hatted as to just what influence this might have on his writings. She was a professor at A. E. (George Russell) from a mediciere position as clerk. "You either like or you do not like Steven's work. There is no haffray." Miss Hoepe read several prose selections from her own books, and noted that there was the same strain in both the prose and poetry of these men.
"All of these men started out to be something else and their preparation and background for the composition of poetry is varied," said Miss Hoopes. Hardy tried to be an architect, and it was suggested that his poetry showed a sense of plan which would allow for the rafters of life." Hardy turned to the writing of verse after 60 years of writing prose.
The selections from Hardy's work were all short character pictures: "She Hears the Storm," "The Voice," "In Time of the Breaking of Na'u," "The Two Houses," and inprise, "Weathers" and "Waiting Both."
From the writings of De La Marea Miss Hoopes gave "The Listeners," a very fancy ghost story; "Old Suar Silver" from "The Peace Pie."
A number of short, whimsical, typically Irish poems by Stevens closed the group of selections. "The Goat Paths" from "In the Green Way," "The Rivalts," "The Snare," "The Shell," "Honeycomb," "Evening," "Blue Stars and Gold" and "The Southerner" were among them. Seven stories were read from "Heals and Heads," several for Mr. Stevens' small son, showing the imaginative moods of childhood.

Recent Survey Shows Teaching Profession Leads as Chosen Work of University Women
In the elementary and secondary schools women teachers predominate. Kindergarten teachers are women, as are teachers of home economics, a large majority of teachers of art and music, and half of the teachers of education. The primary school is being developed entirely by women.

Secondary schools prefer college graduates as teachers. Many of the better high schools prefer teachers who have given a fifth year to their professional training and secured a master's degree.
Since school departments increasingly insist upon and in many states require of secondary school teachers stated training in education, colleges are regularly organized their departments of education to meet their requirements.
Also the demand for teachers trained in the history and principles of education has led to the establishment of many normal schools and
teachers' colleges throughout the country whose program emphasizes principles and methods of education an admits as electives the more cultured students in the education in reported 403 teachers' colleges and nal schools in 1921 and 1922.
In colleges and universities women teachers have been a small minority while the number of women in college has grown rapidly in the past 10 years. A study of college catalogs proves that women college teachers are still teaching in the smaller or newer colleges that established colleges and universities
Women professors or heads of departments are few. One reason for this is that only a small proportion of women have secured the graduate training required for responsible college and have fully accounted for the disparity which is still to some extent due to tradition and prejudice.
An adict issued recently by the authorities of the University of Texas places three dates as the maximum number of engagements which a university woman may accept in one week.
