A Tribute to Teachers Our educat ional system has called its teachers from the body of the peo- ple. and has commissioned them to teach the ideals of the mass as well as the know ledge of the more fav ored few. It is. therefore, in itself truly demo- cratic. This teaching of ideals is by its nature spontaneous and unstudied. The public school teacher cannot live apart; he cannot separate his teaching from his daily walk and conversation. He lives among his pu- pils during school hours, and among them and their parents all the time. He is peculiarly a public character under the most searching scru- tiny of watchful and critical eyes. His life is an open book. His habits arc known to all. I lis office, like that of a minister of religion, demands of him an exception- al standard of conduct. And how rarely does a teacher fall below that standard' I low seldom docs a teach- er figure in a sensational headline in a newspaper! It is truly remarkable. I think, that so vast an army of people approximately 800.000—so uniform- ly meets its obligations, so effectively does its job. so decently behaves itself as to be almost utterly incon- spicuous in a sensation- loving country. It im- plies a wealth of char- acter. of fact, of patience, of quiet competence, to achieve such a record as that. —Herbert Hoover Twenty-four
