THE SCHOOL-TEACHER.

Almost everyone thinks she can teach
school, if everything else fails. She
runs over the list of feminine employ
ments. and decides that teaching would
be the most eongenial. She does not cal
culate upon the hardshipS that beset the
profession, upon the Ounces she is likely
t. meet in this occupation, upon the diff
ficulty she will encounter in imparting
what she knows to others who may not
be ready to aSSmilate it. and which re
quires special knack or genius she may
not possess. in which case all her require
ments are thrown away, as far as her
pupils are concerned: she does not calcu-
late upon the wear and tear. upon the
confinement, upon the continual demand
on her attention. upon the power of the
school-g girl to make her tasks tedious and
her working hours distasteful, upon the
dissatisfaction of parents and committees.
1t may be she thinks mainly of the sala-
~, of the pleasure and necessity of earn
ing something, of independence. 1t is
doubtful if the majority of those who go
out to teach the young idea understand
the magnitude of this enterprise. Be
cause they have graduated in mathema-
tics and languages. they feel able to re-
move mountains of ignorance. Not a
thing like pouring water from one vessel
into another. that all they need to do is
to unpack their wonderful budget of in
formation for the students benefit. As a
peddler exhibits his wares. and that each
mind will select what it requires most.
But the position of teacher becomes
no sinecure when it is remembered that
education is necessary not only to Guilt
vate the intellect. hut to develop the
natural bent of individual-to give each
mind an impetus in the right direction;
and in order to accomplish this in any de-
cree. one must take the matter to heart.
not merely push through with the daily
routine. To be sure. she who is in love
with the profession will find this not an
uncongenial task: it will be i'll the line of
her ambitions, and though it Will demand
infinite painstaking on her part. it will
interest her more than any novel OF the
day. The enthusiast will always receive
her recompeuse in the visible growth of
the minds which she instructs; but there
is always a large class of teachers who
are without enthusiasm, who have no de
cided views relative to their work, and
no decided adaptabiity to it. and who
naturally find it tedious and Improbable
drudgery. of small service to others.
The teacher is more of less a slave, but
she who loves her bondage does not wear
out her strength and spirits fretting
against its hard conditions.
