JDEAR MIS8 DIX: Do you think it unmanly to teach, and that instructing ‘others is primarily A woman's job? 1 don’t. I think that a man can be as successful in this line of work as any one else, but many throw up their hands in horror at the thought. Do vou think that as great a success could be made in teaching as in any other profession? JIM. Answer: If you rate success in terms of money, many other professions hold out greater inducements than teaching does, although fortunes have been made In private schools But if you count success in the opportunity it gives you for self-develop- ment along the highest lines, for leading in intellectual life and for doing good to your day and generation, then no profession offers higher rewards| than teaching. So far from teaching being unmanly, it is, on the contrary, the greatest | and most responsible work that any man can ‘take upon himself, for the{ mat- ‘al he works with is not wood. nor iron, nor gold, nor silver, buti | immortal souls. He doesn’t build houses. He builds character. He doesn't| plant potatoes. He implants ideas that will influence unborn generations for | good or evil. He does not fashion metal into curious shapes. He molds the | | thoughts of children. He does not sell drg goods or groceries. He “sells” { ambition and high ideas and righteousness. Compared to the teacher’s fob, most other jobs are unimpostant, for no other human being on earth does any work so vital as that of training the minds of little children. They come to the teacher plastic and are as clay in his hands. Listen in on any group of children and you can hear: “Teacher says this; teacher says that: teacher does this; teacher does that.’ Teacher is their guide, their oracle, their model And especially 18 the job of the teacher important in this country, where | in our melting pot are assembled a thousand incongruous ingredients that all have to he blended together into a homogeneous whole of Americanism And so 1 think that the young man who takes up the profession of teaching is the greatest gnd most potent of all missionaries, and that hel renders a service to his country that should entitle him to be decorated with the Congressional Medal. DOROTHY DIX Are there ‘men who are afraid of telephones” MISS EIGHTEEN DEAR Miss DIX Answer: There are thousands of men who live in terror of the telephone, and who never hear the tinkle, tinkle, tinkle of the telephone bell without turning pale and having that sinking sensation and a gnawing feeling at the Dit of thetr stomachs. For a girl at the end of the telephone wire can do frightful and deadly things to a man. She can lose him his job, for employers very soon find out that they can dispense with the services of sheiks who are always being called up over the phone by girls. So if you want to wreak a fatal revenge on some youth, just make a practice of giving him a ring in the midst of his Another reason why men are afraid of telephones hold them lip o effectually over the telephone aven't called, and where they were last night, and whi h t 3 B . and when they ar. { come. and don't they want 10 £0 to such and such a party, ng (hee. conBea on doing it until they badger a man into making a date with them is hecause women can hey can ask them why they So, Miss Eighteen, let me give vou nen don’t acquire the telephone habit, i tIp: if vou want to be popular with m; and never, never, never te an in business hours unless you are trying to make him hate yaa T & kol DOROTHY DIX.
