It seems as if the practice teachers are getting
some humor in the classroom along with the seem
ing hard work. The other day Clara Allen asked
one of her pupils to define “hurricane.” The answer
came: “A hurricane is a man riding through the
streets on horseback in a hurry.”

With the emerging from the toils of the quarter
exams, we thought there would be somewhat of a
respite. We were very much mistaken, however, for
our critic teachers have had us constantly in the
deep and hidden thoughts of Thorndike, Sutherland
and Holtz.

SINCERITY.
A philosopher has said, “Weak persons cannot
be sincere.”
At first thought there would seem to be no con
nection between strength and sincerity and between
weakness and insincerity. We are not accustomed
to think of a man who is insincere as being, per se,
of a weak character. Yet how true it is.
The strong man is sincere because he is big
enough to state facts, whether they be favorable or
unfavorable to him personally. If he is at fault he
will acknowledge it. “If there is any fault to find,
find it with me,” he says.
The insincere man is always concealing or cov
ering up something because he fears it might dam
age him, if the full facts were known. He fears—
and therefore is weak.
Sincerity is spelled S-t-r-e-n-g-t-h, but it spells
success.
Our work-a-day life wears a double aspect. Out
wardly it may appear humdrum, even monotonous;
yet, interpreted in spiritual worth, it may be rich
in inner meaning. Lit up with inward significance,
“the daily round and common task” became a path
of consecration.—George Watson.
o
When you get even with any one that has
wronged you, you put yourself exactly on his level;
but when you not only take no revenge, but act kind
ly toward your enemy, you rise far above him, and
rossibly help him up, too.
