The Teacher and the Bashful Pupil

As a result of Christ's journey to Samaria, so far as we have record, but one soul acknowledged him as her Master. In this journey and work Jesus gave to teachers a valuable lesson. To the conscientious teacher the retiring, bashful pupil is an especial object of solicitude. He seeks to help each individual, no matter at what cost. The under-shepherd who is possessed of the spirit of the Great Teacher searches out the lonesome, home-sick, and disheartened one, and draws him to courage and hope and good cheer by the cords of love and tender sympathy. This principle particularly applies at the beginning of the school year.
