Excerpt from Happiness in the School, Some Practical Suggestions for Beginners in Teaching
It has been the writer's privilege on several recent occasions to speak to Student Teachers, Teachers of Evening Classes, and Sunday School Teachers on the general principles underlying teaching practice. A teacher of experience can often save younger colleagues from certain preliminary difficulties and pitfalls, and can at any rate strengthen their faith and increase their hope.
Whatever message there may be in this book comes from the inspiration of daily work in the Classroom and is meant to be at once of practical help and encouragement to the teacher. Happiness in the School for both pupils and teachers is possible and ought to be universal. Teaching may be, under the best circumstances, like divine philosophy -
"Not harsh and crabbed as dull fools suppose,
But musical as is Apollo's lute".
It is of importance now when so many teachers are urgently required that the influence of the teacher, and the interest and joy of teaching, should be freely pointed out and freshly remembered, so that the right kind of people may be attracted to the work.
