Some of them are remarkably well educated.
Q.And generally earnestly devoted to their work?
-- A.

Perfectly so.
Q.Or is it simply to get their money?

No; I think some of them really have a desire to see their scholars advance.

I think there is a certain pride in that respect; and, again, they want to gain a reputation as teachers.

I think about from $50 to $100 a month.
Q.Do they pay their own expenses, board and shelter?
-- A.
