EXAMINING TEACHE RS.

Some one has said that teachers like
poets are born not made. There is much
truth in the saying, but we do not hold
to the opinion that study aud extensive
preparation on the part of the teachers
are unnecessary. lie must study his
profession and make himself at home in
the text took.
Examinations do not make successful
teachers. They have their place, but
cannot supply the want of the necessary
preparation on the partsof the teacher
himself. lie may 60 through the exam
nation mill, but that does not meke him
a teacher. Some persons can pass a first
rate examination, and yet they will never
make successful teachers. They lack
energy, tact, and that peculiar gift, some
times called common sense, which takes
hold of things as they exist and shapes
them up and creates circumstances in
stead of being the creatures Of these cir
cumstances. The County Slperinten'
dent cannot make efficient teachers by
mcans of examinations. Many teachers
who pass an unsatisfactory examination
in the text books have fine success in Tue
school room. A thorough knowledge Of
the text books is Of great Importance, bu'
something more is necessary.
Examinations will keep teachers on The
qni rire and thus spring them to action
The poor scholars will be cut off and the
standard of teaching elevated. Thes'
things examinations uiH debut tLey alone
uiN not make good teachers.
