Sorry about that.  I should have included how I declared the bean.  The
<jsp:useBean> tag is the 2nd line in the page, right after the
<jsp:Page> tag. The full tag reads:

<jsp:useBean id="emp" class="test.EmployeeBean" />

I've traced through the servlet code and the bean's getters are being
called even in the getProperty cases.  

In the generated servlet code the scriptlet's version of getting the
title is:

  out.print( emp.getTitle() );

The getProperties version is:
 
out.print(JspRuntimeLibrary.toString((((test.EmployeeBean)pageContext.fi
ndAttribute("emp")).getTitle())));

        You are not creating a bean named emp for the jsp:getProperty.
You need to use jsp:useBean first (I believe) or use
<%=emp.getFirstName()%>.
