With them she arranges

Although Mrs. Haugh is
pleased to talk about her flowers
and to advise on care -
'Consistency in ,care is the
answer to good gardening' -*she
much prefers to talk about her
life as a school teacher,
`1 loved teaching,' she
maintained. It's rather funny. I
taught for the first 14 years in
ungraded schools, And now they
are just coming back into style.'
Mrs. Haugh's 'ungraded'
schools were then known as one
room schools. In one school,
near Sault Ste. Marie, she had 55
students in various grades,
representing 13 nationalities,
some of whom couldn't speak
English.
`At one time I had seven new
students, Not only could they
not understand English, they
couldn't speak to one another
either.'
She surmounted that
difficulty by giving them
scribblers and they copied the
names of objects in English. '
`And they were all speaking
English very soon.'
She returned to the Brucefield
area and retired from teaching
after her marriage to Wallace
Haugh, in order to bring up her
two sons and two daughters.
`My youngest daughter was
just finishing school when they
asked me to teach in the Hensall
school in 1955,' she recalls.
She taught mostly grade five
and six classes until her
retirement after 11 years.
Was she nervous about
returning to the profession after
20 years absence?
`No, It was the same thing,
only in a different dress,' she
said with a smile. 'Teaching
doesn't change.'
Mrs. Haugh came from a
teaching family and her
youngest daughter is a
kindergarten teacher.
`My father used to say when
we all came home it was like a
teachers' convention,' she
recalled. 'My two brothers and
my sister were all teaching too.'
And in every school she taught,
She -gave- packages 'of: flowelr-
ebecIS:-Lately she has distributed
Iris roots, this year to the
Women's Institute and the
United Church Women,
organizations with which she is
actively involved
`It astonishes me sometimes,
when I go visiting, to see the
number of flowers blooming
that have been brought home
and planted by children,' she
admitted, Her interest in flowers
and gardening have been passed
on to children at Brucefield
United Church Sunday School,
where she taught Sunday
School for 40 years, and to 4-11
garden clubs for whom she acted
as leader.
She is also an elder of the
Brucefield Church.
During the winter months,
when the garden is at rest, Mrs.
Haugh turns for interest to
Artex embroidery. She has
decorated literally dozens of
pillow cases and luncheon sets
With simulated embroidery in
floral motifs. Herp articular
pride and joy is a lovely quilt on
which she has 'embroidered' the
official flowers of Canada's ten
provinces.
This talented and artistic farm
woman also has tried her hand at
painting. Her walls are decorated
with attractive landscapes and
seascapes, originally 'paint by
number' scenes, but enlivened
and enhanced by her own added
touches.
