IN MEMORIAM

MR- JOHN A’I-IEAR.N

The death of Mr. John M. A'- Hearn, Tiflnish, on Monday, Ap- ril 18t-h after a few days‘ illness, came as a great shook to his re- latives and friends. Mr. AT-iearn, a retired merchant. was a man who had countless friends and it can be said of him "no enemies." He was a born leader and was interested in~ all community en- deavours, giving of his time and talents to further any project wiltlch would be an improvement to hLs home town.

He was a. Sergeant in the first Wqrlcl War, having enlisted at the very beginning and served over- seas for quite some time, receiv- ing an honorable discharge and a recommendation for fearless and loyal service at all times dur- mg the conflict.

His funeral was largely attend- ed. people coming from far and near- to pay their last respects to a kind and trusted friend. The members of the Canadian Legion, Tignish Branch Number 6 under the command of C. A. Kinch and J. Ailiston McIntosh, marched in solemn procession from the house to the Church of st. Simon and st. Jude and there formed a Guard of Honor through which the flag draped casket was car- ried by the following veterans: Francis Olohossey. James Getson, Russell Perry, Hubert Handrahan, John LeClair and Aubin Richard.

The honorary pallbearers were C. F. Morrissey, Joseph lviclnnis, Peter J. Burke, Howard McCue, Cyprian J. I-Iandrahan, and John A Requiem High Mass was celebrated at nine o'-

S clock by Rev. J. A. MacDonald.

P.P., assisted bv the parish priest. Services at the rravc were also conducted by Father MacDonald.

Mr. Ai-learn is survived by his wife and two sisters, to whom the sympathy of the community goes out in their great sorrow.

Lot's Talk It liver

Good mornins=

Prince Edward Island school teachers are receivml 5 u" of publicity these days. sorna of it favorable, some not so favorable. but the article appearing in One of our Island newspapers early this week twas particularly bitter

against these who teach the young idea how to shoot. The tirade was reminiscent of Alex-

ander Pope after havinga rest- less bout with his lnfirmittes.

1n one paragraph the writer advises accuracy of expression on the part of the teachers, but some of his own statements certainly do not stem from the approved methods of scientific investiga- tion. For example, he accused the executive of the Teachers’ Feder- ation of preparing a brief which begins with "a direct, blunt. ice- cold, ‘formal statement," to which he obviously objects. He goes on to say that the bluntness of the brief displays poor "psychology" and that the wishes of the teach- ers should have been conveyed to the Government in "a. subtle man- her."

Now, no one hearing the Pre- ntier-‘s reply to this brief at the Prince of Wales College auditor- ium eould fail to notice its blunt- ness and lack of subtlety. but the writer characterizes this speech as "the frankest and most‘ unequiv- ooal speech” the writer had ever heard the Premier make. S0. you see, bluntness on the Deri- 0! the teachers is a deplorable lack of psycholbcy. While bluntncss on the part of the Premier is something to cheer about. It seems to be a question of rwhich particular sluine you are offering incense at.

e e More amazing 'than the above, however, was the writer's quoting of the remarks of a lady teacher with fifteen years’ teaching ex- perience, and holding them up as damning evidence of the existence of a "family compact" and other evils in the teachc s‘ executive. The Gallup Poll and other sim- ilar polls have been organized to arrive at what people are think- ing by interviewing a representa- tive cross-section of‘ the public, and estimating the trend of Opin- ion ln this way. As the last US. ‘Presidential election clearly dem- onstrated, this method of feeling the public pulse has iis weakness but, at. least. it is built on l ground-work of common sense. ‘This business of interviewing one individual, however, and pub- lishing her beliefs as if they were part of the Ten Commandments seems to us to be a pretty ridic- ulous procedure. ‘Ilhe lady quoted said that town and city teachers were having a "picnic" and "they didn't know what work ivas." To accept such irresponsible state- ments as thue and use them as an argument against the- teach- ers’ cause last-range indeed for a newapaperman supposedly trained in the art of concise and intellig-

ent expression. , e - e

men to write their brief for “a dime a dozen" but if all the oth-

csdure as the above. Paying a dime a dozen for their hire would be downright inflation. The aston-l ishing result of the writers ac-i ccptanw of this lady's "minority report" was that her ODWW ma“ the front page of one of our Is- land's reputable nowspllpels- Riv- ley would love to get hold o! that choice morsel. H , The writer of this sufflmiimus, article charges the teachers’ exec- utive with having in their brief s, series of pretentious sentences, which are considered by the, teachers "as infallible and as ir-; revocable as the laws which gov- ern. the motion of the plimeiflryl HQ base; his belief Inl

system." this on the fact that molly °f ihei sentences begin with ‘We b!-

llgvgf’ w; may be mistaken, but‘ it has always been our lmvrrwon," that if a man said, “The moon is made of green cheese." it “Tmldi sound far more opinionated than‘ if he said, "I believe the moon is| made of green cheese." The sccondi statement would convey the mean-i »ing that it was only a belief andi could be wrong, but the first dis- courages contradiction. .

O O I I We hope the writer of this ‘art-i icle will explain how he srr.ved_ at the. conclusion that “few. P97"; haps 20 per cent" of the teachers, hgvg a God-given talent for their, profession. Has he conducted l. thorough investigation or is he once again relyinr on his Hlvficiai form of ‘irnlnoriti’ report"? We can't imagine how the writer could estimate accurately ‘he P9P‘ reunite of Island teacher's who are "called" to the profession unless he is a sort of rentrnl nperatinll; station for the system and all the

"calls" pass through his hands. i
