many Of our teachers seem to act as if
they cared more for the dollars aud cents
Of their employers than forlthe welfare
of their pupils. THE laborer is worthy
Of his hire but one who simply tries

There can be no position, save that of
a parent, in which person is placed,
where there is so great an influence ex-

common school teacher. He has to do
with the rap material which can be
moulded, by precept and example, into
worthless drones and selfish feuds, who,

half; or into shining lights whose benef,

Of discord and rebellion have been cast

FINAL RICHEST.

Teachers of Cedar county, if you desire
the Educational Column kept up, you
must send in your communications, or it
will certainly be discontinued. One or
two persons have not the time to do all
the work gratis. We frequently wait
till the last moment for articles, and if
they do not come, we have to sit down
and hastily "scratch off" something
which is, almost necessarily, full Of or
rors. One article, containing three pages
of fools cap, from each teacher in Cedar
county would keep the Educational COL
umn supplied for two years. A teacher
is unworthy the name, who cannot or will
not contribute, at least, one article to the
Educational Column of his county paper
during the whole year. Teacher, if you
can't write for the column, get some one
of your pupils to write for you.
