I Teachers QUESTIONABLE.
! Are you interested in community
welfare work.
In presenting lessons, do you talk
/ over the pupils heads?
( Is your school room always ready for
inspection?
/ How about your personal APP
peaTance?
Are you always doing your very
best?
Do you go before your pupils every
day with complaints of your poor
/ health?
/ Are you one of the large class of
grumblers and complainers? (There
is nothing that is so conducive to dis
cOuragement and lack OF interest in
school work by the pupils, than this
Ina bit in The teacher)
/ Are you living up to the highest
ideals possible?
/ a true teacher is, and may be, proud
of her title, for her work is akin to
+ that of the Master Builder, the crea-
/ ton of temple, not built by hands.
! Opportunity.
They do me wrong who say / come
no more
When once knock and fail to find
you in;
/ For every day l stand outside your
door
/ And bid you awake, and rise to fight
and win.
1 Wall not for precious chances pass
ed away!
] Weep not for golden ages on the
wave,
I Each night burn the records OF
the day
( At sunrise every soul is born again.
GOOD BOOKS.
In books lies the soul of the whole
past time, the articulate audible voice
of the past, when the body and mater
ial substance of it have already van
ished like dream-Carlyle.
ASSIGNMENTS.
In our visits throughout the county
schools, we find that the poorest work
seems to be done in making assign
ments. Most teachers plan the day &
lessons carefully, but forget or neg
lect TO plan the new assignment. Then
they wonder why the pupils fail to
get their lessons better, and why they
lack interest in their work.
The best efforts of the teacher should
be pat into making good assignments
That is where you should arouse in
terest in the lesson, raise questions
aud problems to be solved by studinp
it suggest reference material and helI
the pupils enough so that they can get
the lessons we'll without becoming dis
couraged or wasting time. But do not
help them too much. Do not read the
new lesson to them or you will deaden
their interest and leave nothing fOl
them TO work out.
Our new county nurse, Mrs. Joseph
ine Gerry, began her work. March, %
The following is a statement which
she has sent out to all instructors il
the Iron county schools.
"W hereas, There are now severa
