,in my oim time have emerged 53 ipersons who afterwards acquired iuniversity degrees: B lawyers, l7 ‘doctors of medicine, l9 clergymen, 9 engineers, to say nothing of 78 licensed teachers. One family of , l0 yielded seven university gradu- it-ifes and two teachers.

The financial arrangements of which now we hear so much. were simple. The master in the earlier days had from each pupil 20 shillings a year, and from ev- ery- family a bushel of wheat. This gn-mctice was held to be vicious be- critise the master might be tempt- ed to keep the boy in school when he was incapable of learning. ‘The

. master was next taken to live with

every family in tum. This was a guarantee of his continued sobri- ety. Finally, to induce him to drive out. of the school all who were wasting their time, he was engaged by the year at a salary that never rose above a dollar a day; but his board cost only 80 dollars a. year. This left him s. handsome surplus which after three years allowed him to pro- ceed to the university; but this was in more modern times when s. gentler type of master began to prevail. and e school of two rooms had been built, with a female teacher for the children and the girls.

"Hearing The Lessons"

It was no part of the old mas- ter's business to teach; his bust- ness was to "hear the lessons" in

proof that they had been learned. If the lesson was not learned the

boy W85 Whipped; if he had to be

whipped repeatedly. ’f.hat was proof

that he could not learn from

books and had better betake him- self to some useful occupation, n.

decision which the parents re-

ceived with grsteful approval. The

boy returned to the land or the

sea where he learned the sky and weather, the quality of materials, the fertility of soil and cattle, se- cure that he would never be un- employed, never an object of pub- lic charity. that he would live in his own house and dle in his own bed.

In short, he was educated. This Grll-lfllllfil‘ School was a

simple affair. Although there were 50 or 60 boys on the roll no one was compelled to attend. A par- ent held himself acquitted if he gave the boy a chance. and allow- ed him the option of school or going to work‘. and on a

farm there is useful work for a boy after he has attained the age of four. One who found the school tiresome was free toslip out and wander the livelong day in the woods, by the stream. even as far as the scit. regarding sweet berries, the trout, the mink, the wild ducks nest, strange plants and flowers. He must be careful to return home with the other boys. Although no one ever “told on" another, his truancy would be discovered and he was put to work. He had had his chalice.

But even then he was free to choose__his_work. In every port

_i_________i__ were ships. At the age of 13 he could run away to sea. In a few years he would return and assume his place in the school where he was received with immense re- spect. He had discovered that ed- ucation was the thing needed (or him. After one or two winters he took to the sea. again. By the time lie ivus 21, he would come sailing into that same port, mag- ter of a square-rigged ship, with a negro in the cook's galley, a par- rot in the cabin. and a monkeytn the cross-trees. The attainments of the master of a. grammar school according to the Act of 1826 were the Latin and Greek clas- sics, Mathematics, Elngllsh, 511m- metic and Geography. Th; mu- ter did not feel obliged to teach these or any other’ subjects. It was his business to keep order, w make sure that a boy who assayed any subject had really learned it. To help the beginner, to teach him, was as unfair as to help him in an examination. ‘That might encourage him in s. wrong ovum.

No Classes, No Tests

There were no closes, no tests for promotion. A boy must prove that he was one of the few cap- able of learning. If not, it were best for him that he were driven out of the school before his senses were dulled and his mind stupe- fled, and left free to find his own vocation, which he invariably did For this purge the master had his ewr ready instrument.

The problem of religious educa- tion received a nest solution. The Shorter Catechism of the Church of Scotland was s standard tout-i book, difficult of mastery by Cath- olic children, especlally the doc- trine of the Trinity which inspite of our efforts to instruct them still remained to them a. mystery, although by us so completely un- derstood. Some of the parents made protest to the parish priest, but Father Phelan, or Father Doyle, I forget which-was awtse man. "Let them be," he said, "they will learn hard words and long sentences; they will not; un- derstand it; and for their religion, I will attend to that myself."

In any year not more than three boys were considered qualified to profit from ‘books, and one of these may have come from a. dist- ance attracted by the fame of the school. He could secure lodgoment in the house of a relative who suf- fered from a. deficiency of boys

rent of the world. The master makes the school. In his history of the “Pioneers" Malcolm Mac- queen offers the deeper reason for the conduct of masters and schol- ars. “Una-emitting toll," he writes "is alien to the Highland nature. Work on the farm makes less ap- peal to him than work in the mysterious forest, on the changing ocean or in other ceilings rospon- _ uive to m emotional end imagin- ative spirit; "his sensitive end sup- erstitious nature tinged with a brooding melancholy demands change and diversity."

The Scottish universities were filled with boys who had the 1n- sttncl: that through the school was an open door of escape from man- ual i011. That iestloss spirit drove them over seas to Canada‘ where they might follow a. free calling. One of these was cut sway upon the shores of Prince Edward Is- land more than a hundred your: ago.

miles, but for some inexplicable reason he did not. like the ancient Ontario. He walked back another thousand miles, and opened e. grammar school.

The more modern master kept himself apart; he enriched hisown inner life by study, reading, end meditation; he was a. model for the young ands stimulant of their ambition. He dressed himself in the full pomp of his office; he disdained any approach to the modern scholastic garb; hat-less. brown Jacket, soft shirt, grey trou- sers so wide that, u the late Mr. Rogers said, he must take two steps before his pants begin to move. '

There was in the town an acad- emy later transformed into l. col- lege by Alexander Anderson - I pause to utter a word of reverence to his memory. There were three rooms and two assistants; the one. John Gavan, had learned his elas- slcs in Rome; the other who died before he was twenty, the son of a poet, had written a sonnet which is now to be found in the literat- ure. It was he who opened our eyes to the beauty of poetry. Em- erging from this college the chosen
