Opportunity of School Teacher
1 (Continued From First Page).
ocracy is the expression of Jesus"
teaching of God‘s fatherhood and
man's brotherhood.
Therefore, a public school teacher
should consider himself ordained of
God to do his work in God's kingdom.
in the same. way that the preacher of
the Gospel is, who does his work
through the church of Jesus Christ.
The teacher‘s opportunity and func-
tion are primarily moral and spiritual
when rightly viewed and given the
highest meaning and interpretation.
Three personal qualities are neces-
sary to the teacher as well as to the.
preacher—lutellectuai, moral and re-
ligious. The highest ideal of teach-
ing is not simply to impart know
ledge. Nor is it to prepare pupils to
make their living. These may be pri-
mary in point of time, but are not the
ultimate ends to be sought.
They are to make 11 life rather than
11 living. to bring pupils into their
highest, place in human society, to
develop character and prepare for ser-
vice in the world.
The teacher's moral opportunity is
very great. lie gives to generation
after generation of boys and girls the
things they have not received by her
itage. lie supplies the deficiencies of
moral training in the. home. The.
training of the. mind is of little. value.
without the. education and culture of
the personality.
You teachers are guiding the lives
of many who are to be. the. leaders of
the great movements oi" mankind. Take
those who me to be. wage eari1crs.it‘
yoii will. Those. who am trained in
our public schools will be the. labor
leaders of tomorrow. There is no
realm where leaders need more. moral
training. more knowledge of great.
moral principles, than these. in fact,
for all who are to be. real leaders in
modern social movements, on educa-
tion in the 'pubiic school is the very
best.
Their great social impulses need to
be wisely trained and guided. All
teaching must have great moral ends
in View. What great opportunities you
have, through history and biography
to impress great. spiritual lessons.
1.11 order to carry out. such ideals the
teacher must be more than a hireliug.
Your financial recompense is inade-
quate; i know that. But you have oth-
er compensations. You are. molding
personalities and guiding many of the
great movements of society. Over
against your meagre. salaries. whichl
wish were not so unfairly me ogre. you
do have great privileges which cannot
be measured in material terms.
While it is important that you
should be equipped upon the intellect-
ual side of your work. the personal
equation is of the utmost importance.
Your personal moral influence is of
supreme significance. It Inns been
very gratifying to me. as l have had
the privilege and pleasure of knowing
you, to find that our teaching force,
is so strong in personal character.
in order to carry out. your larger
mission you must take great. personal
interest in the: life. of the community.
guide the young people in their life.
.outside the walls of the school, teach
them how to use our public libraries.
encourage them, without any sectar-
ian bias, to associate themselves with
on churches and to uplift and beautify
th itr homes. Try to make them love
their. school and their teachers. Per-
aoiiai affection will draw out and de-
'ch09 their qualities and mold then
This is probably to be more and
more 11 manufacturing community in
such a community materialism is like
ly to prevail and the interests of high
er education to stiffer. While it is
probably true that most. of~your pupils
will become wage earners, that is all
the more reason why they should be
kept iii‘ school as long as possible. it
is likely to be all they can get. Moro
over. some. of them would be. able to
use a college education to better atl-
yautage than many who have it thrust
upon them. You should keep your eye
and hand on such cases, and We should
provide for them in our High School
and send them to college by its prep-
aration, for they could not afford to
obtain their preparation by expensive
academies. it si a mistake to suppose
that we. may neglect the. higher educa
tion because we are a town largely ot
wage earners.
I11 ill? largest. sense of the1 word and
in the best sense. the. public school is
:1 religious institution. and its teachers
should be men and women of religion:
and reverent spirit. Th1,1 interests com
mitted to your keeping are divine
trusts. The public schools of 0111
land are solving its greatest problems
They are meeting the. great question
of emigration. If we succeed in re
ailing a true democracy. our publir
schools will be. its saviours.
The political. the moral and the
religious problems of society are large
ly in your hands for solution.
it any public servant needs a pray
erful spirit. a deep serious sense ol
moral responsibility, Win the teacher
For such work We. need great, strong
manhood and womanhood. with a deep
sense of consecration to holy trusts
NORWALK WATER ANALYSIS.
Very Healthy and With no indication
of Drainage Contamination.
The board of w ter commissioners
of the City of N01 nik are very much
pleased over the result of an examina-
tion of the city water which has been
made by James A. Newiands. chemist
of the state board of health. at the
State Bacteriological Laboratory at
Middletown.
The. examination was made from a
sample taken from a regular city watei
tap on May 7. by Frederick Buckley.
secretary of the board of water com-
missioners.
The result of the chemical analysis
shows the water to be very healthy
and there is absolutely no indication
of disease germs in it. A copy of the
Chemist's examination. showing all of
the properties of the w.ater is on ex-
hibiiiou at, the. water connnissioners
oflice.
The analysis i‘urihei (11:.1110111111111011
that. this water is low in mineral con»
touts and is soft The figures for al-
buminoid ammonia and oxygen c011-
sumed are high. but this is due. to the
presence of .harmless organic surface
water at this time of the year. The
figures for free. ammonia. nitrites. ni-
trates and chlorine are. low and show
no indication of drainage contamina—
tion. The bacteriological examination
showed a moderate number of bac-
teria. In the opinion oi the chemist.
this water is not receiving any drain-
age contamination, and is entirely eat-
isfactory for drinking purposes.

TROLLEY PBOMOTER
EMPLOYS SLEUTHS
They Donned Cum Shoes and
Haunted the Corridors oi the
Capitol
Since last Thursday slipper-footed
keen-eyed detectives, with notebooks
in the hands and high purposes written
on their very open countenances, have
been sleuthing in the field of states-
manship, says the Hartford Courant.
it has been a great and exalting chase
and they have not been the only ones
to enjoy their childish sport. It is said
that. foxes get. lots of fun out of the
dogs that follow them and similarly
the gnileless citizens whom these dogs
of investigation have been trailing
have found no end of amusement. in
watching the absurd maneuvers by
which a per diem was to be earned.
threcvcr any one of a dozen well
known men went, whether to the Capi-
tol, their own offices, the homes of
friends or to the Hartford Club. there
stood some of these seutlncls, writing
down in notebooks the. “salient facts"
of their important movements. They

into toilet rooms, hid behind trees in
front of tho club, stumbled upon people
who were in conversation, and tele-
phoned right and left under assumed
names to find their quarry when delay
in spelling out words in their note
books threw them off the scent.
At first it was amusing. but after 11
whiit1 the annoyanie and the insult of
being continually followed destroyed
the.1 fun and it was decided to stop 1hr?
business. These lined sleuths made
one unsiukewthey neglected to wear

tectives. Bewaret" instead they
wore notebooks and an air of mystery
“which proved quicker give-itwuys. in

Some Disappointmentoi Spec-
tators Over lion-appearance
of Catherine Hell, of Green-
wich, Charged With Killing
Husband
The criminal superior court for May
came in yesterday afternoon, in Brid-
geport with Judge George W, Wheeler
on the bench. The court opened a few
minutes after 2 o'clock. The judge
was followed by the Rev, E. Livingston
Wells. pastor of St. Luke's Episcopal
church, a former attorney at the bar.
who offered prayer.
The business of ihe afternoon was
the putting of prisoners to pita and
the assignment of attorneys. in all
cases the accused entered a plea of
not guilty. or that which is usually
done, to start the business of the court
although in two instances pleas of
guilty were entered the very first
thing.

term
at-
ls generally one or more cases of un-

court yesterday, and those who gath-
ered there to see her Were disappoint-
ed. 'i‘hose who will attend the. court
in the expectation of seeing a beauty
will be disappointed. anyway. Outside
of her hair there in nothing very
strikingly attractive about the woman.
Her case will probably be reached this
week.
Judge Wheeler said. in making the.
assignments, that 111101111 ys must be in
leadiuess when the cases ale called.
and that he would expert them to be.
in attendance in court on the days
