Teachers Cfxchangz Blames This year for the first time Butte High School participated in the teachers ex- change system which has been steadily gaining popularity all over the country. Miss Sadie Erickson of Butte high school exchanged teaching posts with Miss loan Mort of Belle Vue high school in Brad- ford, Yorkshire, England. Although they had corresponded, Miss Erickson and Miss Mort did not meet until they were introduced in London at a recep- tion given by Mrs. Lewis Douglas, wife of the United States ambassador, before the British teachers left for America. Miss babie Erickson Shortly after this meeting Miss Mort and ninety-seven other British ex- change teachers crossed the ocean on the Queen Elizabeth. eagerly awaiting their first glimpse of the United States. The teachers stayed in New York for three days, and in Washington, D. C. for five days. While in the national capital they met President Truman. Bliss Euan jllilurt Miss Erickson's job of teaching, accord- ing to Miss Mort, is much different from hers in that Belle Vue high school is an all girls' school of 560. The school itself was famous at the end of the last century, and the beginning of this, for the stress laid on teaching science to girls. Miss Mort, too, found differences worthy of comment in her experiences here. Particularly she singled out the pretty clothes of the girls, the amount of talking boys can do, the gay garments of the boys, the lovely mountains around Butte, the clear air, and finally the true kindness and friendliness of Butte people.
