THE ARTS-EDUCATION CURRICULUM degree of Bachelor of Arts. From the Department of Public Instruction of the State of Ohio he receives, without exami– nation, a provisional certificate entitling him to teach in any high school, or to superintend schools in any school distrist in the state for a period of four years. After the holder of this pro– visional certificate has taught upon it successfully for twenty– four months, he is given, also without any examination, a state life high-school certificate. The enormous demand for high school teachers during the last few years and the consequent increase in salaries has made the teaching profession attractive to those qualified to fill the higher positions. The return to the teaching profession of thousands of trained and experienced teachers who have been engaged in military service and in war work of various sorts will necessitate a high degree of professional training on the part of those who have been filling their places during the war and of those who aspire to compete with them in the future. ~o~h~~1~c~~rt;~~~ \~t~~~ts~ 0 t;~;::i:1n ~~ 1 , :t ~ufJ°J;;s;~~~~n~ 0 \:i~h anything less than a bachelor's degree and a state high school certificate, together with the intellectual and moral attain– ments that they represent.
