subject under consideration, making it plain <strong>and</strong><br />

clear.<br />

The youthful teacher who fears God will be<br />

instructed while instructing. And as thoughts of<br />

real value flash into his mind, let him offer<br />

thanksgiving to God, praising Him as the One from<br />

whom all blessings flow, recognizing <strong>and</strong><br />

acknowledging Him as the source of all true, noble<br />

thoughts. ...<br />

There is such a thing as leaning heavily on men<br />

<strong>and</strong> lightly on God. Those in charge of our schools<br />

should put into active service every talent<br />

possessed by the students that can be used for the<br />

help of the school. When this is done as it should<br />

be, it will be found that students will not hanker for<br />

football, tennis, <strong>and</strong> other amusements. What the<br />

students need to be taught is how to make<br />

themselves as useful as possible wherever they<br />

may be placed. They should learn how to adapt<br />

themselves to the work in h<strong>and</strong>. Christ says, "I pray<br />

not that thou shouldest take them out of the world,<br />

but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.".<br />
