The Average Teacher.
fConstlhitlnn.
June an i July arc tlie.months devote 1 to
■the commeneemenlii.of itlie schools and col
leges of Georgia. Within the next ten days
the last perspiring nudidience will disperse,
.and.the commencement period will be at an
•end. Already hundreds of young men and
•young women, heavily weighted with hon
ors, medals and diplomas, have returned to
itheir homes and are seeking employment.
A large number will teach, ar.d dire will he
it le consequences to their helpless pupils.
MAhatewor may he the opinion of a few
Rhoughtlul men, it is a fact that a majority
•of people are utterly indifferent to the quali
fications of those who enter -the teacher’s
profession. From mountain to seaboard,
•from the Savannah to the Chattahoochee,
Georgia is overrun with a multitude of raw
young men and immature young women
who arc blindly laboring to impart knowl
edge to which the arc strangers. This has ,
ibeen true ever since the close of the war. ,
"Young men, fi/esli from the schools and col
leges, “tench awhile” before entering some l
profession. Nine-tenths df the lawyers -were
once teachers, and, excepting farmers, at
least one third of the men in other profes
sions were also once teachers. They taught
as a stepping stone to something else. Even
the graduates of the normal schools, who
nre required to teach a certain number of
years, rarely stand by their pledges. The
•young men soon tire of the drudgery of the
-iiehool room and the young women soon take
unto themselves husbands. The average
teacher spends übout two years trying to
teach the young idea how to shoot, iwid then
•seeks a new field of lobor. One result of
idiis state of things is that there are few
really able teachers in *lvc state. Another
.result lamentable in the extreme, is tluat the
number of thoroughly educated men and
women is very small.
The nverage teacher possesses a smatter
ing of “spellin’, rcudin’ 'rilin’, 'rithmetic,
.and jography”—for the rest, he is the hum
bug of humbugs- To him thoroughness is
an unknown world. In the language of a
member of the board of education of a
southwest Georgia county: “Mos’ teachers
is pow’ful on show, but they busts on 1
Ahrnshin’ Famin' into their scholars.” Let
him who doubts the accuracy of the estimate
here placed upon the average teuchor inves
tigate for himsolf. Let him test the teach
er’s ability through the teacher’s pupils.
Let him determine whether or not the aver
oge pupil of the ecliools is possessed of the
information the average pupil ought to have.
Some time ago, a teacher in charge of a
school in a west Georgia county was ap
proached by a pupil and requested to ex
plain the meaning of ‘‘-19 11. C." The
tcnchcr read the sentence in which the hiero
glyphics occurred, and observed that it re
ferred to an incident that had taken {dace
in a remote period. “Ahem!” ho said,
“them figgers an' them letters is frequently
found in history books. You see, a long
time ngo, folks didn’t know ’s much ’s wo
do, an’ they sorter guessed at dates. Now,
'-W 11. C. Ricans ’-19 ’bout correct.” In a
middlo Georgia county, not a hundred years
ago, Bcvcrul applicants for positions as
teachers of public schools were undergoing
an examination before the board of cduca
tion. One young man appeared to be unu
sually well informed, lie answered all
.sorts of questions in geography and arith
metic, and the members of the boaid began
to think they had discovered a treasure. I
The chairman of the board examined the !
young nan in English grammar. Nouns, \
articles and adjectives were safely passed, i
and then the chairman asked, “What is a {
pronoun?” “Never beard of it,” leplied the
young man. “Never heard of a pronoun? '
“No, 1 never did,” “That’s strange.”
“Can’t heip it; I never heard of a pronoun,
and I don’t believe you ever did either.”
“Do you mean to tell me that you didn’t
find anything about pronouns in your gram- 1
mar?” “No, I didn’t find anything about j
pronouns in my grammar.” The chairman 1
took the book and examined it. The pages J
relating to pronoun* had been torn out.
“Ilumph!’' ha ejaculated, gazing ut the
young man in a dazed sort of away, “such
a monumental fool as you can never teach a
public school in this county.” And yet
there were fools just as monumental then
teaching in that ycry county. In a south- ,
west Georgia county, upon a certain occa
sion, the chairman of the board of eduea- ,
tion requested an applicant for n teacher’s
position to read this sentence: “The muscle
that is seldom used especially shrinks.”
The applicant read it thus : “The musical
that is seldom used cspicatchelly stinks.”
But ha was employed to teach. To know
how largo is the number of teachers in
Georgia like tlic samples hero mentioned,
would cause the hair on the craniums of
the friends of education to stand on end. I
Here are some incidents of a different no.
ture, that will servo to illustrate the quuli- !
tications of the average teacher: One day, '
the pupils of a mixed school in a southwest
Georgia county were asked the question,
“Who is Alexander 11. Stephens and where
does ho live?” Out of one hundred and
fifty that heard the question, but one at
tempted to answer. One young man said
that he thought Alexander 11. Stephens was
governor ot Washington City. Let that
school had for more than ten years been
presided over by teachers regarded ns
among the best in state. In the prepara
tory department of a leading Georgia col
lege, tjie question was once asked. “What is
meant by the Alabama claims?” Not one
of the students could answer, although sev
eral of thoiq were grown men, and at least
five of them were studying for the ministry.
Some time ago. a young man, bearing the
highest testimonials from his teachers, ap
plied for admission into the junior class of
Georgia college. In the course of his pre
liminary examination, he was asked, “Where
is Africa?” Imagine the collapsed condi
tion of the learned professor who asked the
question, when lie heard the young man an
swer. “Africa is in Virginia!”
It would be superfluous to prate about the
responsibility us the teacher’e .profession.
Everybody recognizes its responsibility.
That is, everybody theoretically uiecqgnizcs
its responsibility. Practically, to the great
majority of people, teachers included, “the
teacher’s responsibility" is a cant phrase
like “the dignity of labor," or “purity in
politics.” Most people that patronize tho
schools and colleges leave “the teacher’s
responsibility” to take care of itself; and
most of the teachers figuratively stick .tho
phrase in their bats with the added phrase,
“Them’s my sentiments,” And .then jolt
along in their own, or somebody clse’s, mis
erable little rut. Why should the majority
of teachers havo a proper conception of their j
responsibility when they are themselves i
scarcely more than untrained fledglings?
Altering the sense in which “the teacher’s
responsibility” is generally understood, it
may justly he said that somebody is charge
able with it. For instance, if the state is to
provide education “for its young, is not tho
state responsible for the teachers? Should
not the state see that none but properly
trained teachers are sent to take charge of j
tho schools? If the colleges are responsible j
(cr the teachers, should they not take pains
to send out teachers, thoroughly equipped? '
The catalogue recently issued by a Georgia
college contains this n itice: “Schools in
need of teachers are requested to confer with
the president.” He ought to be usliamed
of himself, for lie knows that the teachers
he would furnish are entirely without expe
rience, and that their work in the schools
would be but “a slaughter of the innocents.”
But, after all, it is the father, mothers and
guardians ot the land that are responsible
for the teachers. If they would declare a
boycott against teachers that are not quali
fied for the positions tboy occupy, the race
of .tuaatterers would soon disappear.
It is'r.ot denied that there are touchers in
Georgia who are tho peers of any in Amer
ica. They are engaged in a noble work, and
they justly have the affection and venera
ti in of their fellow citizens. What has 1
been said ot tho majority of teachers docs
not apply to them. 1
If there be any who squirm under the in
dictnunt here made, it may comfort them to
know that the K -v. Sam Jones says, “It’s
tho Hit dog that barks.” |
Wilkes Always Ahead.
Madame DeStacl once asked N’upoleon who
was the greatest woman in France. The
great warrior replied: “She v:ho has the ,
most sons.” The following from the Atlan
ta Capitol tells of a woman after Napoleon's
own heart: i
Dr. Hobbs, the eye, car and throat physi
cian, lias operated on a. boy from Washing
ton, Wilkes county, for treatment of his eye.
lie is one of 20 children and their mother is
only ;il years old. The boy is 7 years old.
The mother had four triplets and four twins,
and there are only tliree boys in the family, i
The father’s name is Jordan Sherman. Dr.
Ilobhs, who is thoroughly reliablo, assures
us that he has investigated the peculiar case ‘
and is certain the above facts ate true. He J
has talked with Mrs. Sherman’s sister, and
has received a letter from a responsible gen
tleman in Washington, Wilkes county, who '
knows the facts to be true. This case is \
certainly a very strango one and out of the 1
usual order.
I’ateuts Granted.

The other day a husband was reading that
tho premonitory symptoms of insanity were
a wild look, flushed face, thick speech, etc., <
and he handed it to his wife and remarked:
I “Mary, il 1 come home looking that way,
• you'll know what it means and you’ll know
what to do.” “Yes, darling,” she softly re
plied as she laid the paper down; “I’ll have
an emetic and a club waiting for you.”
“Docs science destroy love of nature?”
asks a scientific magazine. It does. Once
! upon a time a scientist invented a flying ma
chine, and after his first trial not only his
{ i° vc nature, but His ioye of art was also
i destroyed. A fall of sixty feet from the
roof of a building, in the interest of science,
is apt to destroy anybodv’s love of nature.

I He said lately in the presence of a re
! porter: “My business necessitates a good
deal of exposure upon me, and last winter,
owing to this fact, I was attacked with a
very severe case of inflammatory rheuma
tism.
“What I suffered from this dread disease
can better be imagined than described.
"I did everything I could to cure my
self. I tried every means in my power
1 and every remedy left me as bad er worse
1 than I was before. I could not raise my
hand to my head, and it looked as if, even
if I were rid of the disease, its effects
would CRIPPLE ME FOR LIFE.
“About four weeks ago I waspersuaded
to try Ilunnicutt’s Rheumatic Owe, and
:my relief was almost ■mstsrrttmcous. I
am now on my fourth bottle, and I am as
sound a nmn as there is in Georgia.
“ ‘Have I any objection to the publica
tion of these facts?’ Not the least in the
world, aud I only hope they will meet the
eye of every person sufforing as I was,
and that they will believe, try and be cur
ed; ami I want to say right here that I
would not, for one thousand dollars, bo in
die condition I was when I begun using
live remedy which made me whole again
—llemnicutt’s Rheumatic Cuipc,
“I also have been a great «o€erer froaa
indigestion and stomach troubles—dys
pepsia, in fact—and since I began the use
of the Cure this has entirely left me, and
I have as good and sound digestion and
appetite as I ever had.”
This wonderful remedy for the cure of
all kinds of Rheumatism and all Blood
and Kidney Diseases, is now sold at $1

KILE BEANS! What a frtnnv name
for a medicine! Nevertheless it’is very
significant as applied to the article.
Bile, according to Webster, is “a yel
lowish bitter, viscid nausceons fluid,
secreted by the liver.” Whenever tho
liver does not act properly this fluid is
retained in the blood and poisons the
and misery
is the result. SMITH’S BILE BEANS
is a sure cure for biliousness and liver
complaint. Price, 25 cents per bottle.

Facts & Figures.
There are three hundred Skin Diseases,
lienee the innumerable host of Blood Reme
dies. But there is only one Neuralgia pain
in the nerve, and the fact is equally estab
lished that there is but one remedy, and
that is
Jordan’s Joyous Julep.
The experience of hundreds who have
been cured by the Julep attest this fact. A
physician regards it a test for neuragia so
quick and surely does it remove pain. If
you suffer, get this remedy and take it.
Neuralgia is common; it is serious, liable to
attack auy vital organ, and if not suddenly
carrying you off, leads to untold suffering
and misery. One bottle has cured as many
as half a dozen cases. Try it if you suffer.
It cannot be surpassed in remoying pain.
