visited Hui:onview June 21st. A
turkey dinner was served at 1:15
p.m. Then enchue was enjoyed,
prizes were; ladies high, Mrs.
Prim to the oldest lady and
gentleman were won by Mrs.
ffattie Ryan and Bill Smith.
Closed by singing "God save the F'
Queen", Mrs. Elsie Henderson
was the accompaniest. Then we
visited some of the residents.
About .19 Senior Citizens of
Seaforthv motored to Huronview,
Clinton on Saturday, enjoyed the
outing very much.
One of the things ',like about teaching is
that you are not stuck with the same old
stupid faces year after yeer, as you arse in
most jobs.
In teaching, you get a whole set of new
stupid faces every year.
They come in every September, an entire
new gallery of mugs, and sit there looking
at you. They look pretty dumb, like any
other representative group of people, and
you have a moment of despair,
It doesn't help much when some of the
faces are closed and sullen, and others are
sneaky or insolent or just plain devised for
hellery.
"Oh, boy! This is no bumper crop. More
bumptious than bumper. Looks like a
rough year ahead:,
But some strange alchemy goes to work
during the year, and by June, if you're
lucky, those faces are no longer strangers,
but a host of new friends and
acquaintances.
You have discovered all kinds of things,
in the give and take of the classroom, about
these bodies, and now you know them as
aspects of the human spirit, however
blurred or bent, in some cases.
That girl with the big bust and bum and
the pouty mouth, whom y on registered as
Hot-Lips Houlihan type back in September,
has turned out to be a sweet child who
blushes if you ask her what time it is.
Conversely, that angelic, straight-
looking girl with the big honest eyes and
the good manners, whom you spotted as a
potential prize student last fall, was hauled
into court last winter for being drunk and
disorderly, a nice way of saying she beat up
two cops.
That little ratty guy with the dirty hair
and the sides falling out of his sneakers,
who looked like a refugee from a
Dickensian orphanage, has proved himself
a track star and a whiz in grammar.
Mouthy Mary, whose vocabulary would
scorch the skull of a sailor, writes tender,
lyric poetry.
Jeff, whom you put down as a hockey
bum in January, who missed three days a
week from exhaustion, has emerged, since
the ice melted, as one of the most sensitive
writers you've ever taught.
Alan, the belligerent guy you tangled
with on the first day of school, and the
second, and the fourth, and the eighth, a

real hood, has come out of his surly cocoon
as a football player, a pretty fair artist, and
the best mower of lawns you have hired in
years. You are buddies.
Cynthia, one of the few familiar faces
last September, because you had taught
her the year before, hasn't changed at all.
She's just as sweet and lovable and full of
fun as always, and you think of her almost
as a daughter.
And Joe, the other familiar face last
September, because you had also taught
him the year before, hasn't change a bit
either-He's just as slippery, conniving, lazy
and genial as always, and while you might
despair .of him, you've grown to accept
him, as you would a member of your family
with the same faults.
It's the same every year. You start out
with caterpillars, and if you are patient and
tolerant and allow people to find their way
out of their cocoons, you wind up with
•butterflies, some gray and dull, other
brilliant and many-hued, but all of them
fluttering with life.
And you keep track of your butterflies,
as best you can. Here's a doctor who didn't
know a dangling participle from a ruptured
appendix when you were trying to teach
him Shakespeare, 10 years ago.
And there's a university professor, one
of the swift, eager minds you touched on
her way through the system.
John has become an artist, and is going
to marry Trish, and you think it's a great
match and hope the best for them, because
you knew them away back then, when they
were kids.
And another John and a Bill are
journalists, and Betty is a fine nurse, and
Florence is going to be a lawyer, and Mike
takes off your storm windows and Betty
works in the travel agency and gives you
the best of service and Pete isrgoing to take'
you fishing to a special trout stream as
soon as school is out and Rosemary has had
four babies, every one a beauty.
It's like pulling teeth to make them
admit it, but most teachers become pretty
fond of most of their students over the
course of a year. A few of them, of course,
only a mother could love.
I can think of no fate more horrible than
being a teacher who doesn't like kids, and
no better fife than for one who does.
