Today, thanks to the contributions of Danlsh school chlldren and of a team of Danish workers, a new rnhoolhouse is beginning to rise in the war ravaged Greek town. before nine the next morning, which explains why Mr. Lun- ney's hours are from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. But in the summer every- thing gets an extra cleaning job. Besides this, ail kinds of odd jobs are done in the summer time, such as replacing sash cords, re- placing panels in doors which the gentie students have kicked out, and dozens of similar repair jobs. In fact ail year round, Mr. Lun- ney is a full time maintenance man in addition f0 doing ail the cleaning and looking after the furnaces in winter. The two lat- ter jobs are tbe customary duties of a caretaker. Rarely does one find a man who does ail the re- pair jobs as well, and even builds tables, bicycle racks, makes pic- ture frames, puts on locks and hinges, builds doors to keep the pigeons out of the belfry. instals a his t daw desks which have beenreplcedto the attic, puts gliders on desks and chairs (this at the South Ward school, which is flot bis province), puts castors on the pianos, mends piano benches, constantly repairs the ten tables in the children's dining- room (they jump on them), re- pairs the gym floor-the list is endiess, and so is the work, and other peopie grow breathiess just contemplating if. The oniy as- sistance which Mr. Lunney bas is that of tbree scbool boys to belp dlean between the bours of four and six. These be pays out of bis salary.

If anything needs fixing, the cry goes up for Mr. Lunney from feachers and chiidren alike, and they are neyer disappointed. When they talk about people going the second mile, they mean people iike Clint Lunney. Though Mr. Lunney bas been at the Central School for 19 years, most people in town perhaps re- member him besf as connecfed with the Dominion Organ & piano Company where he work- ed from the time he was a lad of 14, almost continuousiy until 1932 when he became the care- taker of the Central School.
