Description

Magazine caption: This teacher feels that a few minutes taken from the pupil's lesson to read a personal letter will not count for much. Furthermore, he deceives himself into thinking that the pupil is blind to his neglect. He does not realize that the pupil is paying for the best of his most concentrated brand of attention and that if he tries to pawn off some very much diluted interest he may be without a pupil at the end of the term. When you teach, teach, do nothing but teach and teach in the very best manner you know how.
