Teacher's Aim In Life.

To help a child to become unselfish, self-reliant, kind, thoughtful, considerate, honest and independent; to train to habits of usefulness; to promote purity of thought and life; to have even some small part in awakening loftier purposes and holier aspirations; to arouse in the minds of boys and girls an honest and sincere hope to be able to some extent to make happier the school, the home, -the community, the state, the nation, and the world—-should be the greatest ambition of every teacher. —Richard C. Barrett. .
