P. Robins on 97th Birthday Expresses His Confidence NOTED EDUCATIONIST Helped Form Local System of Protestant Schools Un- der Commission Montreal, Jan. 29--A woman can always bring enterprise, courage, and faithfulness to duty to. her career, whether it be in the classroom or the office, Dr. Sampson Paul Robins, M.A, LL.D, D.C.L,, declared recent- ly, on the occasion of his 97th birth- day. Dr. Robins has played import. ant roles in the progress of educa-|* tional and of pedagogical institutions in Ontario and in Quebec, particular- ly in Montreal, as he was instrument- al in shaping the early fortunes of the institutions under the direction of the Protestant Board of School Com- missioners of Montreal, He was made principal of McGill Normal School in 1883 and held that position until his retirement in 1907, at which time Macdonald College was opened. Dr. Robins does not know anything about the "pranks" of the modern woman. He has never seen one smoke or drink, and he says he can- not believe that the essential elem- ents of woman' Ss chars acter have changed mich with the years. Individual Lost One very important thing which is wrong with conditiors in the world today, Dr, Robins believes, is that the segragating and congregating of in- dividuals who have one aim in view causes retarding the development of the individual. On this continent there is so much mass production and mass consumption that the individual is lost sight of. Consequently individ- ual power is under-developed. And when this is so, progress can never be as fast or as thorough as it should be. This is not as apparent an. at- titude in the Old Wo id, he said. When a 97-year-old man announces that he goes out every day of his life is as conversant with current events as any member of parliament, and that he feels extremely well and could not be happier, then the interviewer is forced to ask him a question: "How can a man have a happy old age? His answer was typical. "A .good stomach and an. active intellect are two things necessary for a happy old age. I do not dfink or smoke, that is why my old age is a time of physical well-being. And'1 keep my mind ac- tive and busy, reading and keéping in touch with people. So many men die shortly after they retire from their business. But that is only be- cause they let their brain stop works ing, and of cuorse, this is death, The mind must be occupied to be happy." Born in England Dr. Robins was born in Faversham Kent, England, on January 27, 1833, the son of Paul Kobins and Ann Wickeiy Robins, trvaelling preachers He came to Canada with his parents in June, 1846, at the age of 13, and attended Peterborough Grammar School. At the age of 15 he was sent to teach school in a deserted shanty m the backwoods near Peterboro, for which he was paid eight dotlars a month and given free board at his pupils' homes. In those early pion- cer days the pupils sat around the fireplace studying from the books which their parents had happened to bring with them when they emigrated to the wilderness of Upper Canada. "One could get a license to teach in those days by obtaining certificates from three ministers," he explained. In 1857 he was invited by Dr. Daw- son (later Sir William Dawson) to join the staff of the McGill normal School. In 1870 he was asked to or- ganize the Protestant school system of Montreal under the Protestant Board of School Commissioners, Be- fore his retirement from active work, he was for some years president of the Association of Protestant Teach- ers of the Province of Quebec, and represented that body on the Coun- cil of Public Instruction, He served as senator of the Wesleyan Theo- logical College, and as a member of the Dominion History Committee. Robins lives with his daughter, Miss Lillian Robins, who taught for eight years at Macdonald College, He is unable to attend church but he never misses a day without reading aloud a chapter from his Bible.
