Bayfield Correspondent) So Bayfield for the first time in 131 years is without (a Public School. We are given to understand that the one and two room schools fail to meet the needs of tomorrow. (On Monday this week Bayfield pupils began at­ tending the New Huron School Area No. 1 school at Brucefield). Fortunately many of Bayfield’s former students did not know that they were pre-destined to failure, and in their ignorance sailed on to success. Among those who readily spring to mind are; Percy Parker, Superintendent of the Consolidated School, Nekoma, North Dakota, a position he held for 40 years; James A. Cameron, a former principal of Earls Court School, Toronto; Miss Alice Isabel Mus­ tard, who in February resigned from her position as associate executive director and head of patient care at Jackson Memorial Hospital, Miami, Fla.; Miss Mus­ tard is also lasted in 'Who’s Who of American Wo­ men”; David Dewar, who in 1959-60 was President of the Ontario Public School Men Teachers’ Federation and was one of 20 who represented Canada at the World Conference of the Teaching Profession, held in France in 1964; Dr. Doris Nicholl who is,engaged in research, and others, too numerous to receive indivi­ dual mention here.
