Outside class teachers always seem to find time, between cor- recting papers and preparing for the next class, to give the student extra help on something in which he might be faulty. Our teachers can also be found supervising and advising var- ious organizations, clubs, and school activities. A teacher is not only a scholar but also a human being with indi- vidual talents and i n t e r e s t s , al- though the students seldom see this lighter side of a te acher' s life. These talents and interests explain how the teacher can be such awell- rounded person.

When students are conscious of the human element in the lives of teachers, they find that co-operating with them is much easier. Not only that, but the pupils begin to realize that even though teachers try very hard to make the atmosphere of the school pleasant, the success of this attempt depends very much on their attitudes toward the instructors.
