"'THE PERSONALITY OF THE TEACHEI Address by Prof. I. M. A. Myers Before St Colored Teachers Association in Florence l cember 30th. We are here rearesenting the sch< teaching profession in the State South Carolina. Several hundred m and women are engaged in this field labor among our people in our sta and to see so few of that number in s sion argues favorable of the impressi that we. educated or uneducated, are r yet willing to do anything helpful as mass of people. But., like in the churc we can but feel happy of the opportt itv to address ourselves to the may tbrough the feelings and ears of t faithful few who love the race, t. building of the c'untry's citizenshi future welfare of the boys and girls much so, that they have sacrificed tiur spend money and thought to further f< ter the needs of so great an Associatic Fellow teachers, the work that is t fore us is much and if taken hold of the strongest of us and with the bE methods great must be the result. The is a demand for strong men and wom to make good every calling in life a: the work to be done in our professi depends upon the individual employe Pessimistic teachers and narrow mind leaders are not to be counted in tl greatest achievements ever attained ever to be attained in course of hum; events. It's the individuality of the pers that, makes him the star of his callit and the real leader of the people. TI school teacher has rot to make an it pression and if he does not he lesse the respect of the people for that whi< he represents because the man, in th line of work, is the object of sometbit said. They see the person before thi recognize fiis intentions or are called respond to effort. There is quite a demand for an it provement in the school system in tl state. The poor school nouses and smn pay are detrimental to the life of ti system. If the condition spoken of is be brought to the desired standard must come through the personality < individuality of the teacher. If the people love their preacher it easy to pay his salary, raise his chur< claims and erect a new church costiu up in the thousands. The magnitude < self exertion of a school man will ten if he puts himself in the proper attitu< to draw the people to him and brit about the desired results. We have n the resources to draw on like other ra es, but I say much when I say we ha the people. History points out the fa that what has been done can again I done. I offer love as the greatest stir la a to leadership. I also offer as a sc ution to the educational problem amor negroes in this state. the acquisition the art of friend making. Let the teac. ers and preachers, class leaders and de cons go hand in hand. If we must ha' men hear us and follow us we must r among them with no selfish motive b with an open heart and hand if we wou build un a strong public school syste in South Carolina. The valuation of sc is primative; as we proceed to carry c our daily work we can do no more tbt put our ideas into another's life and I this method we shall live among othe: in character and truth to be a blessit to ourselves and posterity. The whisk( drinkers, liars and hypocrites dressed school teachers garb should be shunnei The sooner they are forgotten the be ter for the profession. What does the literary world care 1 admire about Brutus, Benedict Arno. and Judas? But the pages of histor and literature are so sweet and inspirit wen we turn and read of the illustrio ives, awe inspiring examples and le ons handed down from the songs ~ilton, the plays of Shakespeare, ti cho of Homer, the depth in reason b Bacon, the elegance of Gray; power onstintine, or Charley Mzgne; adv1< f Franklin, or the teachings of Mood; f Paul, Talmage, M1artin Luther < Wesley and a host of others whose it ges hang in the hall of fame sheddit ays of light and life filled wvith biblica oetic and classic love. They taugi reat lessons by the work accomplishe ad the great impression they stampe :pon the minds of men by their vQi eing, shall live forever. The negro teacher has done much bi e must resolve to do more He mu; andle his community by hi~s strong 1 ividual impression and a lot of it corn' to us by keeping our mouths and n< aking too much to do with the people usiness. We must encourage the be ishes of the white people of the stat ou cannot live under two impressioi n the same community. If you impre the blacks you must like wise impress tl hites. Those teachers who have dor nuch in their profession have been e: :ouraed by both races. Fellow teachers: I feel more optimi tic of the work today than ever befor The idea being advanced by some the the strongest men and women are lear: ing the profession is not true. The: ay be many of our college men lear; ng for the sake of greed but the mm ho gives up because of adverse cond tions is not strong. Those who stand their guns during the hardest fight a' the strongest and bravest soldiers. Ti an born to teach is like the man bom o preach. The born preacher wou uffer rather than throw aside his bib nd hymn book for a more speculati' job The born school teacher will nevi hrow aside his Speller, Grammar at reek Lixicon for a more lucrative p sition. Strong men let's push every id ad thought that perpetuates our wor ake it bring us a better income. I a sure you that the mcre you put into he more you get out of it. Individual effort does much in the s ution of all problems. The negro pro lem has had various predictions as toi solution, but, the fact that individua make up the races, in proportion to ti ability each individual shows in han ling himself, in proportion does he off a solution to the general problem of which hangs discussion. The school question must be handl4 by the individual men and women in tl profession by the impression we mal for good in our various fields among ti people. They do not readily respor but in time conditions wii be chang and the profession, instead of belr looked at as secondary wil be looked1 to as the great lever powsr, used in el vating a people. May the men and w~ men of this body stress and incoura; the individual output of brain. braw character and active sell exertion th will yet redown to the greatest good a wanting people. We are no longer be considered school kee pers, we are t Anostles of our cause. February Term of Court.
