He looked almost gloomily on the mother who had upheld the pillars of state and the future generally. It was a beautiful medal. It was a five-pointed star. It said "Reward of Merit." The visiting gentleman lifted it from its bed of pink cotton. "You must get a ribbon for it," said Dear Teacher. Emmy Lou slipped her hand from Dear Teacher's. She went to the front desk.

The teacher is an important factor in this process of generating situations that render inoculation far more easy; and we omit one of the most vital things in education when we refer only to the teacher's ability to "impart instruction." The pupil gets certain things in that room, but the teacher does not give them.

The shooting without, mingled with the oaths of the men and the frantic wails of the women without were too much for the little one to bear. Her teacher's assurance of safety were of no avail.

Two rascals in the boys' class, who, evading their teacher's count, had been down under the seats kicking each other with stiff new shoes, emerged just as the librarian came around with a pile of books, ready to fight good-naturedly over the one with the brightest cover.

How many become discouraged and disheartened by what they consider the unavoidable trials of a teacher's life, and give up in despair, just because their faculties will not sustain a six-fold task.
