The Lexington Dispatch Burned April 25th; rebuilt July 19, 1894. G. M. HARHAN. Editor and Publisher. LEXINGTON, S. C., WEDNESDAY. MARCH 22. 1899. The Teacher's Duty to Sis Association. [The foliowiDg address was delivered by Mr. Thad. W. Dreher before the Lexington County Teachers' Association at its February meeting, and is published in compliance with a resolution of the Association^ We are here today representing a nrrjfpRsino. which is second to r ' none in importance and in its far reaching effects upon the destiny of the human race. No other profession presents such rare opportunities for the development of character, cultivating self control, sympathy, patience, kindness and love for children, all of which are necessary in the make up of a successful teacher. The highest qualifications of soul or mind that the teacher possesses by nature, as well as by study, experience and practice, are called into service in organizing into an obedient, law abidiDg body children of different disposition*5, brought together ^ from different homes and diff-rent ] influences. Ia this difficult undertaking, intel? i lectual qualifications alone will not insure success. Many well educated ^ men and women have failed in the school room because they lacked ( some of the natural qualifications ( that intellectual training cannot give. In some respects the teacher is like the ancients said of the poet: "he is ^ born not made." Besides being well educated, the true teacher must have love and sympathy for childreu. He must have ' - -4 * J * raci, juogLueui, ummug oi?u a large store of common sense. The teacher who possesses these qualifications will be a well developed human being. But such a development . comes only by patient toil, perseverance and experience. To rise above the common level, and reach the srt of teaching is the desire of every enthusiastic teacher. uHis animating thought is to become a good t 'acher.'' This thought will be with him day and night; and he will seet every opportunity that will help him to reach that goal. But his interest is not confined to self improvement. He desires the improvement of his fellow teachers, and to that end he will give a part of his time, experience and talents. He recognizes the professional duty he owes to his co-laborers, and will give them all the encouragement he cm, and willingly labors to advance the professional standing of the members of his profession. He will seek opportunities to show his interest in his fellow teachers. And where will he find a more fitting place and better opportunities than a teachers' association? The prime object of all such associations is the advancement of education, and whatever affects an educational system, affects the two great factors in the system, the child and the teacher. We meet in this association for mutual benefit. Our great aim is to increase our professional standing, and to arouse greater interest in school work among the teachers of our county. In ibis association we meet face to face, we become better acquainted with each other, consesequently we will be more interested ia the advancement of the members of this association. Thus we are placed in better position to render , aid to each ether. Here the youDg, inexperienced teacher can gain much valuable information from those who have learned experience by years cf work in the school room. If the teacher is interested in the advancement of his fellow teachers, he will seek to do what will give them pleasure and profit. If this is j true, here is the place for him to show his interest. In this association we i discuss the live questions of the day that are cf interest to every true l teacher, and that concern the pro- < gress of our schools. j There are many vital questions i < concerning the welfare of our com 1 mon school system that are occupy- 1 iDg the miuds of great educators, school boards, trustees and LegUla- 1 tures that we pjight discuss with in- ! terest auu profit. Iu many things 5 we have gone from one extreme to J another. In reading some of the 1 educational writings of our day we 1 are led to believe that there was lit- 1 tie of educational value iu the sys- 1 tern under which our forefathers * received their training, and that all 1 that is good has been reserved for * "? T-? ? * f - 1 our a ay. jl>ui 11 wc pausea myuieut ? and note the long list of names of 1 great men who achieved distinction i in literature, science, invention, ora- t to^ and statesmanship, we are forced to the conclusion that, however de- f fective the old system, it had many t points of excellence and much of j c higher educational value. And, while j c * =Mothers! I THEdiscom- ^ ^ _ | dangers of {? child-birth can ^HBI | be almost enW'ineofCarduiJ>^LJj&Tggv relieves ex- | puts them in S condition to do their work g| perfectly.

Nine H I months later 1 had a fine girl baby." 0 LyUMJLi^Zfci ii I ;he common school system of today aas many points of excellence, it Las many defects. The aim of all true educators is to jnite the good of the old and the aew and give us a system tbat is free From extremes. But there are hobby riders who are advocating all sorts of extreme views that have do educa tional value. In education we are in a transitional period. The golden man will be reached sooner or later. These great educational questions directly concern us as teachers, and while teachers in every State are discussing the questions that concern their progress, we cannot sffjrd to sit ju silence and see others out run us. We must come together and show our interest in education by outworks, for in activity alone is prog less possible. We show our interest in what we do, not in what we say. To say that we are interested in our fellow teachers and refuse to meet them in an association where we can show that interest is a contradiction. Again, our discussions increases our interest in educatior: they stim ulate mental activity, and arouse in us the desire to become worthy members of a great profession. When this desire^bas taken possession of the teacher he will investigate the questions pertaining to education, and strive to find the truth for himself. This will increase his mental power, broaden his views and make him a better teacher. This is the desire of every true teacher. No teacher has reached that stage of perfection that there is no room for improvement. We want all our teachers to recognize this truth, and then set to wort with a zeal that will not abate, but will keep them ever striving for higher attainments. Such teachers will rise above selfish interests, and while striving for their own improvement, they will recognize the claims of their fellow teachers and will be found laboring for the best interests of all the members of the profession. Their aims will rise above monetary considerations. Fill our schools with such teachers, then we will have an association that will make its influence felt throughout the county and it will become an important factor in advancing our educational interest. Judging from the point of view that I have taken, many of our teachers are failing to do their duty to their association and to measure up to their opportunity, la thiB association we have opportunities for benefiting each other that we cannot find elsewhere. The world's great future lies before us with all its unceitainty and boundless possibilities, and what that future unfolds to us in improvement depends upon our own efforts >'Oar own interests, and all the great human interests around us," should b8 the incentives stimulating us to I greater zeal and activity in making | this association fruitful in good results in advancing the interests of the j profession which we represent. Is it j then asking too much of the teach- i ers of this county when we ask them i to meet us in this association and as- ! 3ist us in discussing the questions that concern our improvement and the improvement of our schools? Would it be claiming too much to say that it is their dutj? B.-f jre au- j sweriug these questions, consider for i i few moments what it is to be a ; leader of the young; to stanl iu the ; place of the parent for six hours a 1 lav; let the evil effects of bud teachi ag and bad example piss b.-fore j roar mental vision, and if you still ! * I ail to see your duty anil feel your j esponsibility it would be well for you j ,o leave the school room for those ! eachers who have a Libber coaccp j ion of duty thin you, and willrecog- j lize the claims that their fellow j eachers have upon them. A large majority of our leathers | j ail to recognize this claim. Jadge . hem by tbeir acts, and this is the i >nlv poiut of view from which we j 1 an rightly judge them, we are forced j to the conclusion that they have no interest in us and our woik in this association. Tbeir aims in life do not rise above self interests. They cannot look beyond self and see that there is a grander, nobler service than serving self. A few teachers say that they cannot receive any benefit from this association. Is tbis a reflection upon the intelligence of the members of this association, or does the remark come from those who are "wise in their own conceits?" Such teachers fail to remember that united effjrt has accomplished many reforms where individual effort would have failed. Admitting that some of our 0 teacber9 have made greater professional progress than we have, does that excuse them from attending this association? We will welcome them here, and while they are giving us the benfits of their superior wisdom and Inowledg", we will be silent lis'eners and hearers. But there are other causes that keep many teachers from attending this association, and we must admit them, however discreditable to some members of our profession. Some are making the dollar their chief consideration; others are making the profession a stepping stone to other j ro'essions. Such teachers are not concerned about professional advancement and pjogressin our schools. They are satisfied with present attainments. The animating thought cf becoming a good teacher never disturbed their brains. Their highest ambition is to pass the examination. They stand in the way of progress in our schools. They do not recognize the professional duty they owe to their fellow teachers, consequently their seats in this association are vacant. These vacant seats tell us the sad truth that those who should occupy them have no time to give to the members of their profession. Wd Vioro Vioor/1 IconVioro r?li(>rafl(pr. IT C UU 1 ^ UVUIU iVWVUV4 w ize our public school system as a farce and a humbug. Every intelligent person will admit that it has miny defects, but no good can come from calling ugly names. When the teacher sees that reform is needed, the only true course is for him to go to work and give his influence and encouragement to the efforts that are being made for improving the system. He can show his interest and sincerely by meeting his fellow teachers in this association and taking an active part in the great cause that calls us together. The careless, indifferent, self satis fled teacher is in part responsible for a part of the defects in our school system. They turn a deaf ear to all our calls for their aid, and discourage us by their indifference. Before our school system can reach that state of efficiency that will place it above the reproach of the intelligent people there must be reform. Bat where shall reform begiD, and who will lead the wa3? Some would begin with the teachers, others eay we must begin at the fireside. It makes little difference were we begiD. so we accomplish the desired reform. Let us as members of ihis associa tion ever labor for each others ad vancement and for the best interest of the great cause of education. And then when we are called upor to lay down our work we will have the sweet satisfaction of knowing that we had an abiding interest in the welfare of our schools and tried to do our part in increasing theii efficiency and usefulness.
