CURFEW BY-LAW IS FOUND TO BE UNNECESSARY • Exeter and was published in Mr. Johnston's book of "Rural Rhymes of Love and Friendship":, " W. H. Johnston, -the Subject of this short sketch. has .been .a "very active man during his long life. Reared firm he -Was-a son -of- pioneerille be- gan his career; after leaving the farrn, as a cheesemaker but the higher call of education led him into the teaching profession. Active in church work he combined religious education with his duties as a school teacher and in so doing has exerted an influence for good upon the lives of many boirs and girls who were privileged to come under his tuition. "Mr. Johnston is a Member of the' family of Henry Johnston and Mary (Serson) Johnston and was born, May 27th, 1858, in. the Township of East GWillimbury, York , County. In the autumn of 1861 the family moved to Ashfield Township, Huron .Coun- ty., and settled on a farm. William Henry grew up there in the woods and -attended Finlay's _School- (S.S. No. 9, Ashfield), afterwards known as Cherry Grove schord. ' "At the age of i4 Mr. Johnston decided to learn the cheesemaking business and for four years (1873- 77) he was employed either as ap- prentice or maker in the factories at Dungannon, in Ashfield; at Don- egal in Elma Township, Perth gouri- ty; and in the Watford Union fact- • The Wingham ToWn Council had •under consideration the patsing of a curfew by-law, but found that a section of "The Childrens' Protect- ion Act" covered the, point which. the Council had in mind. The section reads: No child shall loiter in any public place ' after rine o'cloek iti the afternoon or be in any place or public resort or entertainment after that hour unless accompanied by his parent or guardian or an adult- appointed by the parent or guardian to accompany such child." Under this acta child was defined as a boy or girl actually or appar- ently under sixteen years .of age. Evidently all that is needed is enforcement kof the act.— Goderich Signal -Star tain Sanatorium, Hamilton, who died in 1930,, was an only daughter. "Mr. Johnston is a poet of no mean ability and in addition he' has con- tributed many articles, mostly of an historical nature, for the public • press. He is recOgnized- as -one who -has-exeited, a splendifluonce-and' Who has made a fine contribution to the cOmmunities in which he has lived.

"Although he was successful in cheesemaking, Mr. Johnston's par- ents were desirous that his educa- tion, be ,continued. and, as a result, he returned to school, graduated from the Goderich Collegiate and eventually secured a teacher's cert tificate. In 1880 he commenced teaching and for the next forty years was actively and- successfully en- gaged in this occupation. He first taught eight years in his own school then in S.S. No. 2, Hay Township, for twelve years and finally in S.S. No. 14, Stanley Township, where he was in charge for twenty years. These schools always had a large attendance in those days and part of Mr: Johnston's duties was to in- struct the fifth classes. of young men and women. "In l920, after retiring to Exeter, Mr. Johnston .ecame ee. • r for the Harvey Bros., Milling Co., and was associated with this' business for eight years.
