Recipe for a Teacher

Select a young  and pleasing personality, trim off all mannerisms of voice,dress, or deportment.

Pour over it a mixture of equal parts of wisdom of Solomon, the courage of Young Daniel, the strength of Samson and the patience of Job.

Season with the salt of experience, the pepper of animation, the oil of sympathy, and a dash of humour.

Stew for about four years in a hot classroom, testing occasionally with the fork of criticism thrust in by a principal or superintendent.

When done to a turn, garnish with a mediocre salary and serve hot to the community.
