The Bright Side of q Teachers Life.
Paper read before the Trego County
Teachers association by Elise Neuen-
schwander.
In ancient times occupations and Of
fees were hereditary. Special tribes, or
castles, were ordained for the profession of
teaching as we'll as every other calling.
Modern times ale more liberal and give
to every one the option to choose his own
occupation. Not every one is fitted for
the profession of teaching. Not every one
has the inclination to and the love for it.
Not every one possesses the necessary
patience.
This vocation has so much that is I'M
pleasant, 80 many difficulties, so little
gratitude, and the pecunisry compensa-
ton is SO small that 1t requires certain
energy and special talent to induce any
one to enter it. But the profession, hav-
ing dark side, has also bright side.
The necessary preparations opens the
coming teachers head; he learns to think
and inquire; he sees everything around
him with brighter eye; he overcomes
many established prejudices, and to him
the beautiful book of nature is opened.
Is it not rich enjoyment to study the
interior of the earth, the magnificent
paradise of flowers, the many artfui per-
formances of the animal kingdom, the
busy striving and working of mankind?
Is it not elevating to reflect about the cir
culation of our earth, the many millions
of other heavenly bodies, and the reign of
the great High spirit who rules every
thing? Is it not pleasant to teacher up
on entering school to greet number
of little children whose minds he is to
wake to thought, train to discipline, and
inspire to gather knowledge from every
source? Is it not gratifying to b teacher
to note the efforts and diligence of these
little creatures and to observe the ex-
pansion of their souls as they grasp some
new idea?
What happy moments for a teacher
when parents thank him for his efforts
and bless his work; when he knows that
he will always enjoy their grateful re-
And oh! what a great joy to
the faithful teacher to see his pupils take
their places On the stage of life as young,
noble, pure hearted girls, educated
mothers, industrious housewives, strong !
young men, good fathers and citizens, or |
energetic, high-minded statesmen.
Good schools create industrious fam |
lilies, well-to- do communities and bloom
ing states. Good schools foster civiliza-
ton and enoble humanity. The teachers |
profession is noble one and We may well |
be proud of it.
The self improvement, the self knowl-
edge, the consciousness of being engaged
in an honorable calling, the opportunity
to study and direct the growth of the
intellect which the school offers to the
fsithful teacher, and the important posi-
lion which must be assigned to him in
society, necessarily brighten and cheer
the life of q teacher.
The true, earnest, faithful, conscienti-
IONS teacher must certainly belong to
hat class to whom il may be said at the
,ve OF q vell-spent life by the great
"Well done. thou good and
'aithful servant; thou hast been faithful
,ver few things, I will make thee ruler
'ver many things. Enter thou into tho
