Very likely by the beginning of the next school year we shall see a decided change in the personnel of our faculty. The increasing need of men for our armed forces and defense jobs has taken some of our masculine faculty meme bers and will take more as the need increases. During the first World War there were fewer men and mar- ried women teaching than there are now. The number of married women teaching will probably ine crease and the number of men teachers who are eligible for the draft will decreaseg too, the changing college curriculum which enables students to coma plete a course a year sooner is making available younger teach- ers who will be able to fill the vacancies. We are very fortunate in being able to find efficient substitutes.
