out from under some old gentleman trying to get across the street before the light rhanges but after a wild look around to see if there something 1 could destroy without making my wife sore like maybe a pa per cup i ve discovered the source of my vile mood there they sit stacked about the floor of my study those piles of trl via on which ive spent the past eight hours with no ob vious change in their altiude exam papers marking exam papers it i guest good for hia tout ifi about the only thing it it good for lf hard an the eyes the nerves the tallbena and tha tern pai- but it has a sslutory

was merely a thinning on op yes us humbling you have begun to build up wiji no really good reason except that you haven t been fired the idea that you re an excellent if not outstanding teacher then you start to read what your students have learned from yoihn the past six months nothing zero you have mere y compounded their ignorance you have only confused the simple teen age philosophies they

swear a bit tear their hair a bit and froth slightly at the mouth but they do not offer to return their salaries the last known cage of this among ol der teachers was in 1714 the more experienced teachert accept this disillusionment as they do the changing of the seasons they know that by some magic alchemy of spring easter holidays parens pre ssure and three months of un relenting labour on their own parts it will be all sorted out by june and most of the kids will advance a grade and it must be admitted that marking exams is not unmitiga ted misery ithas its moments on several occasion respond ing to peals of maniacal laugh ter from my study my wife has dashed up the stairs ready to call the boys in the white coats there s the student who tries the shot gun approach scatter your gems at widely as pass ble and you re hound to hit something right one such in a recent history exam identified john d rockefeller thus he was a prima minister of eng land and very lmportan in the

pick tha right verb from ihu sentence they stove drank drank all tha wa ter a little blonde girl with troubled eyas chose drank be- caute at tha pointed out drunk it not a verb ift a loun she had a good reason for her antwar her father it a and then of course amid the welter of confusion comes the sudden stab of pure freshing delight the discovery of an original perceptive mind trying to make sense out of all this nonsense its like finding a solid piece of ground in a swamp a cool spring in the de sert that s the moment when the poor old teacher is hooked once again by that most irritating of nuisances faith in the future of the human race and bleary eyed but with a lighter heart he bows bis weary head once more over the wasteland of words looking for the diamond in the coal mine in the mail bag g8sxlbes supports lewis stand on dismissal reason rjt 2 rockwood dear sir i read with interest mr al lewis s letter of the 17th march i960 herald thursday march 24th 1966 criticizing the administration of the george town and district memorial hospital at the time of mr lewis s dismissal from the gd mh i as a close friend tried to find the reason for his dis missal i found it incredible to believe that a man could be dismissed without knowing the reason even a criminal gets a chance to defend himself i questioned mr lewis s sub ordinates one thought the rea son was that mr lewis was too concerned about his men s wel fare i know mr lewis attend ed a board meeting juit after his dismissal in an effort learn the reason why he was dismissed he was not given the opportunity to speak to the board concerned about friend s future he would have to aeek further employment without a reference and not knowing why he was fired 1 visualized a prospective em ployer jumping to hit own con elusions mr lewis could be thought a thief alcoholic sex deviate etc etc then i learn ed that mr lewis had been highly critical of some of the equipment in the hospital and a representative of the comp any that was responsible for much of the building and equip ping of the hospital- was called upon to answer mr lewis s charges and i deduced that the report of this gentleman was instrumental in causing mr lewis s dismissal the point is mr lewis should have been give the chaiee defend himself yours iruly w a johnson news echoes from the heralds of 10 20 and 30 years aoo kerrs column mpp
