LOVE VS. MONEY
In
reacblncr Address of Rev. H
Sillier on Educational Dnj Here.
The; following production, "Love
vs. Money in Teaching," comes from
the pen of Rev. H N Miller, princis
pal of Mont Amoena. which address
was given here on last Saturday
educational day .'
'fThtreiano diversity of opinion
with any of us in the question
i . i
whether a. teacher should work for
lovt or money. All of us agree thjj t
the highest ruling motive should be
love of the work, but at the same
time we are firmly of the opinion
that "the laborer is worthy of his
hire," and that the "hire" is yery
acceptable and beneficial, and should
be commensurate with the responail
bility and importance of the work
than which there is none more re
sponsible or more important outside
of the Gospel ministry.
! It would seem, at first glance, that
I ! I
it were absurd to impute to any
public school teacher of Cabarrus
countj the charge of teaching for
money, jfor the average salary per
month is only twentysseven dollars
and
twenty-seven Wnts ($27.27)'
which, considering the brief school
tei m certainly affords few attrac
tions toward the poinbility of a
comforting bank account. And yet,'
amall as this salaryj is. there may be
tome! allied to the money side; while
I hope that the majority are in the
profession for tbe lore of the work
itself.
Then," coming to the main point
i
of issue, it is our belief that tbe true
and successfal teacher is the one
who has come into and remains in
tha profession by force of love. We
may be driven by necessity to some
remunerative employment ; we may
enter the' profession of teaching bes
oiuse we see an open door; but we
certainly will not remain there a
success unless wt love the work of
teaching itielf,&nd especially love
to see its results manifesting thems
selves. : ; ' '
Teaohing is vastly different from
other forms of employment. A
man may shovel dirt from morning
to night,! and although hating the
work may dd it sitiafadtorj. A man
may keep books from day to day,
and from month to month, but his
hatred ef the same will not effect the
success of his work. Tbe same ji
true of varioaa other forms of ems
ploy men t. But a person cannot suc
cessfully teach without love of his
work, however w 11 he may be paid
financially The prospect of finan
cial remuneration may induce the
teacherj to ksep a seat in the schooN
room, call j the roll regularly, and
'hear the lesson" promptly, but the
truest work of the teacher will be
wanting without love. Jt is not
amies to make applicable here the
teaching of St. Paul when he says
that though he speak with the
tongues of men and of angels, with
out loye he is sounding brass; and
though he have the gift of prophecy
and understand all mysteries and
all knowledge without love b is
nothing.' I ' j
; Love gives 'the teacher1 a patience,
sympathy and abounding j interest
and enthusiasm which a hireling:
. i i . I 1
cannot have, and which are indis
pensable to
successful work.! No
amount of pay can give the! teacher
i - i - !
patience under all the manifold
trials of the scnooKroom; nor can it
infuse sympathy and enthusiasm.
And, strange as it may seem, a child
may be a blockshead in grammar or
arithmetic but he is never such a
block-head that he, cannot discern
whether a teacher js a friendly sym
pathizer or the reverse. The stnderjt
will do twice as moon for the teacher
who manifests this
love and inteiet
as for the hireling who simply ,4hcars
1 1
the iefsona " It is ntediesa for me
to explain fartber
how the teachor
with love or the work has the ad
vantage of the hireling, as it is
matter: very potent to my hearera.
I c'foae fcliii subject becauee it in
terested me, and because I could
lend tho value cf experience to
I i
theory. I hnye been un employer of
teachers for only j! two jeara but
that brief time has sufficed to show
tne that tbe subjeot lis not an idle!
olp. I have seen con'rased every
day doring tbe school year the work!
of teachem prompted by different
motive-. In onr school whre eome
studies are elective, even better
opportunities are afforded for a study
of this question.. Some departments
:ontinn&lly fallj off in number o
students, while others continue to
grow. Those t hft grow have at the
head a warm, sympathetic, interested
teacher; and nf injustice is done any
one if I tell thai I have at times
found a teacher shgdding tears oyer
what seemed an unpromising student,
When I find a teacher with such a
lively interest in hsrjwork, I make a
contract to ketp her just a long as
P9881l)le- Wnen 1 . f Qdf one wb0
aisparages tne laienis or tnestuaents,
is not sympathetic land kind, to
whom the students are not attracted,
and finds no satisfaction in the work
beyond the reception cf her salary, I
accept her resignation without
reluctance, even though she b a
genius of geniuses. I
The teacher has a grea- work a
most responsible work, a most diffis
cult work, but it may be done very
successfully where competency is
allied to iove, end, where the com
pensation is adequuu, the work is a
very pleasant one. BfUt, certainly,
the hireling has not an easy time,
and bis students are hot very much
more comfortable. j
It certainly U no venial or mortal
bio to select teaching as an occupa
tion for the money compensation,
for a person may It am to loye the
work and devote her soul's energy to
success is more hopeful in almost
any : other occupation without love
for and popular adaptations to its
various necessities. I t
