Excerpt from Teaching a District School: A Book for Young Teachers To many who study American history it happens that its most heroic figure is that of the Country School-Teacher. Certainly he stands close beside the pioneer preacher. America is superior to other lands in that the common people here have more virtue and intelligence. And this virtue and intelligence is spread among the masses by the minister of the gospel and by the teacher of the public school. Ambition, the resolution of youth to be worthy and useful, has three birthplaces - the home, the church and the school. Of these the school is by no means the least important. It comes in where the home has partly failed and where the church has hardly reached. The country schoolmaster is heroic because of the difficult tasks which he undertakes. Thousands who succeed fairly well in city schools, with ideal conditions of building, furniture and books, and the backing of superintendent, truant officer and a great "system," would fail completely in a board schoolhouse in which one is called upon to teach every grade and to contend single-handed with all the stupidity and friskiness of a country district.
