Major Gordon served with the Canadian Army overseas in the First World War. A native of Winnipeg, howent to Halifax at an early age and was educated in that city. He graduated in Science from Dal- housie University and later ot- tended Cornell University. Sinca the end of the First World War he has been associ- ated with the Dominion Found- ries and Steel Limited In Hamil- ton, Ontario. His father, the late Rev. D. M.

New Principal For West KentSchool At a special meeting of the City t Board of School Trustees ‘held yel- terday afternoon with Dr. R. G. Lea presiding, Mr, C. Fred I-Iine was appointed to the vacancy of Principal of West Kent School, I which position became vacant due to the regretted continued illness of Mr. H. W. Yeo, who had been Principal of the school since 1933, and who has now been placed on pension. ' As has been done by the Board on former occasions applicants were asked through the pren to apply for the important position, and though several appiicatio were received from well qualified persons both within and without the Province, it was felt that the experience and qualifications of Mr. I-lina well merited the appoint- I ment. Mr. I-lins was first apponitcd to the staff of West Kent-School in 1922, and appointed 1st Vice Principal in July 1934, Mr. I-lino has worked hard during his many years on the staff of the school and it is felt his promotion in well earned.
