impediments to tho welfare of a child throughout his t cliool life is the lack of sympathy existing bo tween his parents and teachers That parents sympathetic or antagonistic in their attitudo toward teachers can exert a great influence for good or evil in tho school lives of their children is some thing that only the bun ry hearted teacher can fully realize Any obfcor vant person cannot fail to recognize that a cooperation that could hardly fail to be beneficial seldom exisrs Tho fault does not lie wholly with tho parents Teachersespecially those who are young and fresh from a training course filled with theories and ideals oftentimes re gard tho wishes and firmly fixed pre judices of tho parents with contempt They feel themselves secure in the back ing of prominent educators and thoy do not chooso to recognize tho antiquated notions of the parent Here they err Although they are undoubtedly working conscientiously for the best interest of tho pupil still they are hot wise in ignor ing tho views of tho parent however falso they may regard them Perhaps no classof persons meets ih so much or so severo criticism as teachers Much of this criticism is unjust aud exists solely because parents and others listen to un verified reports and do nothing to ac quaint themselves with the real iuner workings of tho schoolroom Any per son experienced with children knows that these reports even when absolutely truthful from their point of view cannot be relied upon Again anyone who has had the training of children has exper ienced the mortifying fciot that even the best trained children sometimes woefully lapse from their knowledge of good man ners and courtesy when away from homo among other children Some mothers will not tolerate anv correction of their childrens manners by their teacher taking it as a direct in sult to their home training when it is but the result of childish heedlessness It is not always easy for parents with a firmly grounded belief in the forms of education in use in their school days to see the advantage of new methods but were they to frankly talk the matter over with the teacher the cases are fre quent where she could throw light upon their real and not apparent value And no greater injury can be done a teacher than to condemn her at home in the presence of her pupils There are some they usually allude to a teacher as a school marm who persist in believing and encouraging that a school teacher is never to be regarded with other than suspicion They say she gives the chil dren no encouragement Beforo reiterat ing such a statement I wish they might be induced to go into the schools about them and notice the loving untiring elrorts ox tne teachers in every conceiv able way to encourage and give fresh impetus to the pupil not by means of semi yearly prizes that for one trium phant heart leave a score of sore ones but by daily hourly words and smiles that make the children believe in them selves Seeing this they might give her credit in fieir hearts for other than mercenary motives If every mother could be made to realize how hard a conscientious teach er aims to develop her child toward be coming just what her mother heart hopes and prays he will be there is little doubt teachers would find their authority more universally upheld in the home by the parents It is a fact there aro teachers who regard vacation and paydays as the best part of teaching but it is just as true that there are others who find their best part in the knowledge that one lit tle life has been given something to help in the days to come when ho must be his own teacher and it is such that deserve to be sustained and encouraged by the par ents It is a recognized fact that when from the vantage point of maturity we look back to the days of youth that we esteem those our truest friends who set for us the tasks we overcome or who in sisted on certain severities of discipline The boy when grown a man remembers wth more respect the teacher who kept him in to make up his lessons than the one he adored in boyhood because of his superior feats in pitching a ball Why then should not pareuts able to com mand the same wider view of what is for the ultimate good of the child be ready to indorse and support every dis cipline and instruction of the teacher despite childish fault finding and pro test Good Roads Train to Go Far Highway
