History John ElIiott, B.A., Ex-Principal The writer is flot now giving a history of the school, but knowing the interest taken in the subject by the editor of The Statesman, himself a graduate of the school, he offers material and commrnts that may be of service to a future historian. If I may be permitted to use the first person, I would say that I have had sources of information flot available to the ordinary reader and also the privilege of personal contact with men and women who knew Bowmanville and the school as they were ninety years ago. I do not deal with the school subsequent to my own principalship. My last sketch gave the names of those responsible for the new building of 1890. Following are the namnes (as given to me) of those who sponsored the present modemn school erected ini 1929: Trustees-W. B. Couch, chair- man; Dr. G. C. Bonnycastle; F. C. Vanstone; Rev. D. W. Best, D.D., Dr. J. C. Devitt; L. S. Caverly; J. H. H. Jury; C. H. Mason, secre- tary. Building Committee-Dr. G. C. Bonnycastle, Rev. D. W. Best, D.D., L. S. Caverly. Principal-W. J. Morrison, B.A., 1929; L. W. Dippell, B.A., fromn 1929. Some Former Principals 0f the principals (or -head- masters as they used to be called) who preceded me, I cannot, except ini a few cases, speak from know- ledge. Mr. James Rollo is worthy of special mention as head master of the school following the period after the opening in 1851, when the grammar and public schools came togetber in the new Union School building under Mr. Rolla. The date for this school is usually given as 1856 but one old Durham j County directory gives it as erect- ed in 1854 or 1855 at a cost of $6,000. Clearly it was in use fromn 1856. Some old local record may have the correct date foi- its open- ing. It may be of interest to note that Mr. Rollo married one of the lady teachers of the Union School, and durung my termn in Bowman- ville bis widow, then a resident of Toronto, visited in the old Mc- Murtry house which had been ber boarding place ini ber teachîng days f ift y years before. Dr. lM. J. Kelly, already given special mention in these notes, was known to me by reputation ini bis later years, as a prominent public scbool inspector and mem- ber of the provincial teachers' association. 0f Dr. E. P. Crowle, a scholarly man who bad a five-year terma, 1865 to 1870, I knew from those who had been associated witb hlm. Tbe late inspector W. E. Tilley, taugbt two years under him as mathemnatical master and Rev. J. P. Rice now (1943) of Ta- ronto, was one of bis students in the days wben bis father, Rev. J. J. Rice, was the Bible Christian munister ini Bowmanville. William Oliver. . . It was my great pleasure in 1907 to vîsit Mr. Wm. Oliver of the period 1874-82, then living retired in Toronto, 25 years after he lef t Bowmanville to become principal of tbe Colleg- iate Institute at Brantford. I found hlm with pleasant mem- ories of bis scbaol and church associations ini Bowmanville and much interested in bearing of the present scbool. I had previously known hlm by reputation only. W. W.

As previously stated he afterwards served ai teacher of modemn languages in bis old scbool at Bowmanville from 1897 to 1902 under Mr. Gil- fillan. Mr. Tamblyn was born at Bond Head, the old lake port of New- castle and bis student career which began at Newcastle endeid with a brilliant course and ar heroic war effort. honor degree at the University af Toronto.

Tamblyn, P.L.D., a former stu- dent of Bowmanville High Sehool and like bis father a brilliant honor graduate of Toronto Uni- versity bas for many years been head of the Englisb department. Mr. M. M. Kennick, successor ta Mr. Tamblyn, was well known ta me before be came ta Bowman- ville, as the energetîc principal of Atbens High Scbool in Leeds County. while I was on the staff of the neighboring high school* 1in Brockville. As principal at Bow- manville during the years when the handsome new building open- ed ini 1890 was ini preparation, much credit is due ta Mr. Fenwick far bis efforts in the funnishing and beautifyung of the interiar af the school. Ini those days Bow- manville High Scboal was almost in a class by itself, not only for its attractive outside appearance but for the statuary and works of art wbicb onnamented the walls and class rooms within. Mr. Fenwick bad a large share ini securing these fram friends ai the schaol. I remember that aiter my ap- pountment as principal in 1906, 1 was complîmented by a fellow teacher an the privilege ai going ta teacb in that "art gallery," ini Bowmanville. Mr. James Gilfillan, my im- mediate predecessar, bas already been mentianed ini these notes. Prabably the best known of former principals, he gave a lii e- time ai teaching service ini Dur- ham Caunty, as teacher in rural schoals, principal ai Orana and ai Bowmanville public schaols, and 25 years. on the Bowmanville Higb Scbool staff, from 1880. By 1896 he bad campleted the course for a B.A. degret at Queen's University and fram 1897 tili bis lamented death in October 1905, he was principal ai the school. It was not my privilege ta know him persanally but sucb was bis reputatian as teacher and citizen that I faund myseif at times wish- ing that I migbt ini same degree be worthy ai what was said con- cerning bim. An ail painting ai hlm was un- veiled in the scbaal, October, 1907, Dr. Jabez Elliott, one ai bis dis- tinguisbed farmer students, being the chief speaker, and I was in full sympatby witb the founding that same year ai 'a permanent Gilfillan prize by bis former stu- dents ta perpetuate bis memory ini the scbaol. James Brown Dandena, M.A., Pb.D., got bis early educatian in Guelph, began as a public school teacher, obtained a degree at Queen's University, taught in On- tario higb seboals and warked bis way ta an M.A. and a Ph.D. de- gree at Harvard by 1904. He serv- ed as instructar in Botany in Harvard summer schoals and ini normal and high schaols at St. Louis. In 1910 be was professaI ai Batany ini the state Agricul- tural College, Ann Arbar, Mich., but he was anxiaus ta return te Ontario teaching and Bowman- ville needed a science teacher. I knew ai hlm and he had some knowledge ai me and we were bath well pleased wben the board appainted hlm. Under Dr. Dandeno, Bawman- ville became a pianeer in agricul. tural education. For three years 1with my appraval, he stressed ag- riculture as much as the regula- tions would allaw and when be became principal in 1913 be bac ta free band and bis work attractec the attention ai the inspectors anc the Department ai Educatian. He was chosen ini 1915 as the mar best iitted ta act as Directar af Agricultural Education for the pravince, a position which he helc till bis death in 1932. He had charge ai summer tschools and was lecturer in methods ai agricultural educatior at the College ai Education in the University ai Toronto, and under bis guidance agricultural educa- tion secured a more permanent place ini the schools ai the pro- rvince. 9 ri 1 . i k 4 n e 6 e d 3t h S. e. 75 !4 Obituaries DR.

PLAN FOR VOCATIONAL TRAINING 0F CANADIAN VETERANS ON WAY Ottawa, Dec. 14 - Vocational training for returnng Canadian war veterans, ta bie undertaken at an annual cost of some $150,000,- 000, is the proposaI now beung dis- cussed by the Reconstruction Committee of the House of Com- mons. It is hoped ta have concrete recommendations in shape to sub- mit to the House by the time it meets again next year. ut seems probable, from in- quiries made among members of tbe armed forces, that sôme 320,- 000 will want vocational training. Workers in war industries wîll also be given an opportunity ta re-direet their skills through this vocational program, according ta plans now in the process of de- velopment. It is estimated that about 120,000 of these might be expected to take advantage of the training courses. It is not intended by thîs scheme to replace or supplement the work being carried out among the members of the armed forces by the Directorates of Education. This task will continue until ahl the men were demobilized, and this would not occur this time on tht declaration of an armistice, as in 1918. Some time will clapse before aIl can be released from service alter active hostilities ceased, and during this period the men with more tîme on their hands will be able ta get still more benefit from the courses of study under the directorates. The new plan will carry on from wbere the directorates leit off. Training will continue in the light of new conditions arising during the period of the transi- tion from wartime ta peacetime ecanomy. To be most effective, the plan must adhere ta two primary aims, first to prepare mcen and women for definite jobs, and second, to limit the teaching ta the capacity of the individual. This implies the Lformation of a braad scheme af rvocational training and the adop- tion of tests ta determine abilîty ta learn. Methods existing in the armed forces could be converted to this purpose. The plan, it was suggested, "would be operated by provincial- ly organized cammittees using *existing facilities and buildings imade available by the end of the -war, under tbe guidance af a na- tional committee." Provincial -jurisdictian over education undex the B.N.A. Act should not be in- teriered with in any way. The scheme would be decentral- i zed and responsîbility for admin- istration leit largely with the Pro. vinces. There would be need ai uniformity in administration, *however, and in the courses af in- struction.
