QUIVERIAN 1933 Page 9 ur Friends The l:aculty Their search for knowledge means a constant toil, That from the tides of wisdom they may glean Each drop by drop, a share of priceless oil To fill their lamps, a flame of silver sheen Lights up the world, and shows the way behind Where little children, hearty, fresh-faced youths Of every nation, every race and kind Are seeking for the everlasting truths. Tomorrow's leaders, future men of fame, They take today, to shape in destiny . . . To light the way, with wisdom's silver flame The path that leads to things that are to be, Of heart, and mind, and soul to give the best That youth may be successful in the quest. PERHAPS you too, have had fond aspirations to be a teacher some day. This wish may have arisen from a lofty desire for service or from a secret ambition to hear several dozen variously pitched voices saying, Good morning. But teaching is really a great lite. Just ask anyone who knowsl The administration of small doses of the amendments to the Constitution, flapjack recipes, nominative absolutes, typewriter keyboards, and quadratic equations only becomes a trifle complicated when the patients just insist on hiding under the table. lnstructors of today are no longer pictured as grim, bespectacled monsters. As a rule, they spend more of their hours outside of school at basketball games than in devising new methods of punishing gum-chewers. They all have their social gatherings, hobbies, friends and bright little homes somewhere in the city. l-lowever, there is no occupation devoid of drawbacks. The present financial conditions have shown no more respect for teachers than for the rest of the world. But cheer up, discouraged pedagoguesl This business of Technocracy will never concern the teaching profession. lmagine a cast-iron robot unfolding the mysteries ofshakespearian drama to some of our clever senior classesl Another year of mingled study, work, and play at Wyandotte draws to a close. The time has come for leave-taking, when every one looks kindly on familiar faces, though they may not have had entirely pleasant associations. Many of these faces are those of the teachers at Wyandotte. Some faces young, but others are lined with years and responsibilities. l lowever, they are wise and sympathetic as only the alder faces can be. Though we may have thought our teachers too strict or unfriendly at times, the end of the year brings us to the conclusion that they have not been only our instructors and helpers, but real friends, as well.
