The years of ardous training and the high standard maintained by the teachers count as little in their favor. Next to the father and mother themselves--and, sad to re- late, surpassing even them in thou- sands of cases--the teacher stands as the faithful guardian of childhood, its instructor, companion and friend. The eternal principles of right and wrong, which the home ought to in- culecate in each childish breast, are often left to the teacher to instil in order that the parents may have ample opportunity to attend the movies or the nightly dance to ths music of a jass band. owes a debt of gratitude to the teach- ers who take up the burden the mod- ern parent seeks to evade, and who give to the children of this genera- tion the only sane and sensible guid- ance they are apt to receive. . The teacher may grow discouraged over the apparent failure .of his or her efforts, as the children slip beyond control and join the giddy throng of those who seek merely present grati- fication rather than the acquirement of a character and a personglity that will be of some use to themselves and the world.
