Excerpt from Followers of the Marked Trail: Teacher's Manual The value of a text book can never be adequately judged except in connection with the teacher who is to present it; for truth, no matter how important, never comes to the young child as mere truth, but always bearing the quality of the teacher's interpretation of it. One writer says that, "It is as if the teacher's mind and spirit were a stained glass through which the sunlight must fall. All that passes through the medium of a living personality takes its tone and quality from this contact. The pupils may or may not grasp the lessons from their books, but the teachers are living epistles known and read by them all." The Teacher's Part The teacher of this text will have three great functions. One is that of instruction. He will act as an intermediary between the child and the materials of the text, aiding the child's understanding, stimulating his imagination, cultivating his interest, making sure of the applications of the teaching to the child's thought and life. He will also act as an interpreter of the best of thought, of spirit, of religious incentive, which the volume contains. Indeed, more than this, the teacher will be, at least should be, the pupil's ideal Christian, his highest representative of religion. The teacher will also act as a spur and incentive to the pupil, stimulating him to effort, thought, attention, preparation of lessons and their recitation.
