Groups congregate here and there, while other students weave in and out through the crowded corridor. Above the con- fusion, however, a simultaneous whisper lingers on every pupil's lips--Whhat do you think of your new student teacher.N The lonely, bewildered stu- dent teacher ventures out from the classroom, and miraculousb maneuvers his way down the halL Curious eyes follow- this da fenseless creature until he 3 out of sight. Then--now wah just a moment before you begn to tear that person apart. Would you like to know wha kind of a person a studem teacher really is? Well,I haw the true facts--because you sea I am one! A student teacher is a normd human being who is especialh interested in Horace Mann stm dents. He enters your classrow timidly and yet eagerly. He likes each of you to like him If, at times, he seems weary M discouraged, or is constanth prodding at you, he has yom welfare in mind. A student teacher makes mis takes, and he pleads for ymn understanding and cooperatiom A student teacher realizes tm importance of a high schod education, and he sincereh wants to help you. .
