Teacherb d Birthdays in Bethanyp Eliza Ann Sutton, Edgar is the e only surviving member of the tv family. He was born at his par- 0 ents' farm, north of Bethany le village, the Staples' homestead r being established on Liffordc Line. t] His early education was be- gun in the Fleetwood, sehool and he recalis that his. first t teachar was Thomas Kennedy, t, succeeded in turn by Hermanc Hart, Alex Atkinson, Reuben t Dean and Miss Lottie Heaslip. c We have heard of hickory~ sticks being the accustomed rod of correction in early p school days, but, according to t Mr. Staples, his teachers pre- s ferred beech gads. "The pupils ~ were sent to the neal-by Wodsts to cut them in readiness, too",~ he says. When asked if it was more difficuit to keep disci- a pline in school 70 years ago as L in comparison with today, Mi,.' Staples said 'Yes". "You see, h s0 many of the pupils only aI- tended school during the win- ai ter months. They were needed el at home during summer to as- e' sist with clearing the land and si harvesting the crops, so that ri many of the J)oys were grown si men before public school was a] f inished.. They were more dit- ce ficuit to handie. Children now- B a-days wouldn't dreami of do- ri ing the things my generation el cooked up. Why, I remember te: when some of the older boys in a] rebellion aI school work in gen- s eral, ganged up and tore down ti the woodshed adjoining the di school and made a dance plat- ei form on the playground. The T teacher was helpless! a Following public school, Mr. Staples attended Lindsay Col- la legiate and Model School. be- tý' ginning his teaching career at in Yelverton in 1893. His next ty school was aI Hartley, where ni hie taught with a third-class .c certificate. Then hae went back bt to' Collegiate for what he term- ed a "Junior Leaving Certifi - cate". The next year he went te western Canada on a harves- 1 ter's excursion, but didn't think much of the long hours, so re- turned to Ontario and taughit at his home school in Fleet- wvood tram 1896-1899. .Determined to getl ils par- manent teacher's certificate hei enrolled aI the Normal Schoel in London, the first termi the. school was opened, February lst, 1900.

His early salary was $300 and the highesl $1,500.1 A talented musician and real lover ot music, Mr. Staples was one cf the firsltet introduca nusic te the curriculum cf ru- ral schools if Durham county. AThile in Strattord ha was a valuad memnber cf the Central Methodist church choir. At En-, niskillen, ha was choir master of the United Church for sev- eral years. We asked Mr. Staples bis opinion et today's rnethods cf éducation in comparison with îifty years ago and" banc is interesting and tbeught pro- roking raply. 'Educational tandards fifty years ago lait nuch ta be desired and se do those of today. I -think we tail oa pay eneugb attention ta the three R's, especially ini the car- ier grades. I may be old-tash- ioned, but in my opinion pupils are net getting the groundirtg in raading, writing, and arith- netic wbich they ,raceivad in earlier school days. I am will- ing te admit that in many ras- pcts the education received by Dur present day genaratien has greatly improved. Nevarthalass, 1arn tirmly convinced that in the carlier grades il is essential Eal a more tbonough grotind- rig sbould be given in the *read and butter subjacts". Mr. Staplas expressed the opinion thal disciplina should be more strictly entorcad. "'To- day'z gencration wanl te be enlartainad aI schoal as wall as at 'home". ha centinued" and soma parents seem, ta put en- tertainment finst. If a cbild larns discipline aly in lite, ce is baller able te take bis place in today's world. "I teed that mucb et Ihis so-callad ju- aenile delinquency can ha trac- d back te the schoel wbere the child bas been allowad his :wn way tee mucb. "If ha ha& lanned the meaning of obeying rules in scbool years, ha wîll zontinue te have respect for th rules et society. It isn't, ceod for tha cbild ta have things made tee easy.
