can be without such training. Well dis-
clpliped minis are best qualified TO train
others Much depends on the character OF
the teacher, In the school room, as In the
family, Character Is moulded into the image
OF him whose authority subjugstes childhood
to his will. His manners and motives are
insensibly impressed upon the yielding
nature of bis students, and they become
what he is. Asswearer, a gambler, a fiery,
tempered man, is not fl for tho school room.
Men and women of polite manners and
virtuous principles, joiIed to good common
sense and a capacity to inpart knowledge,
ought to be employed to take
charge of the early education of our
children. With these qualifications, the
more thorough their education the better. will
they be fitted for the responsible work of
laying the foundation for the training of the
human minds and the development of human
characters. How shall such teachers be
secured?
/. By letting it be known that such
teachers are wanted. If the school board
and the examiners of applicants for
certificates will lift the standard up
to this level, the teachers will soon measure
up to the standard. II we continue to en-
ploy Indifferent teachers because they are
cheap, we can easily aEd full supply.
2. BY suiting the salary to the character
of the teacher wanted. A liberal salary |
whereby competent teacher is secured, Is
money we'll invested.
8 By making the school term of sufd-
Gent length to justify teachers 10 giving
their time to that work. No man or woman
of ordinary ability will be at the expense of
preparing for any occupation that will only
sfford three or four months of labor and
4 BY encouraging county Institutes.
Every county should hold an annual jnsti-
tute of one months duration, where all the
teachers Of the county can be drilled Gu the
teAt books ard on the best methods OF teach
ing them. A small appropriation by the
county and fee of one or two d liars from
the teachers would secure competent instruc-
tors for this work.
