Description
Excerpt from Industrial Education, and Drawing as Its Basis: Address Delivered at the Annual Meeting of the Massachusetts Teachers Association, at Worcester, Dec, 28, 1878
The vocation of a teacher offers us the opportunity of doing this, in the most exalted manner; for neither the bar, the pulpit, the platform, nor even the press, is so powerful for good or evil as is the school-room and its in?uences. At a time when the human character is sensitive and unfolding, it is placed under the in?uence of the teacher to mould it into shapeliness or misdirect it into moral ruin; and this mighty in?uence should be wielded with a sense of awe and responsibility that ought to crush out every unworthy thought or act from a teacher''s mind and life.
