One of rra>t beautiful
farms in the Belmore area is
the Kieffer homestead, this
year bearing the sign of 'Cen-
tury Farm'. More than 100
years ago, Ignatius Kieffer
took his farm a, crown land and
he and his wife, whom he had
married in ISL1, struggled to
make a new life :or themselves.
Mr. Kieffer came to Canada
from Alsace-Lorraine', then
part of France; his wife had
come from Buffalo, New York.
Mr. and Mrs. Kieffer had a
family of five sons and five
daughters. In 1907, their son
George married Mary Cronin
and became owner of his dad's
farm, Mr„ and Mrs. Kieffer
Sr. moved to Formosa, where
they passed away some years
later, Mr. Kieffer at the age
of 71, Mrs. Kieffer 85.
Before 1920, a large bank
(In an effort to help inform
the general public of what is
happening in today's secondary
schools, teachers from this
area and from all areas across
the Province have prepared a
series of articles stressing the
special two- and four-year pro-
grams, the work included in
the secondary school and the
opportunities beyond.)
Automation! Mass Produc-
tion! The machine age is upon
us, and with it comes a whole
new field of careers. We live
in a market- oriented economy,
and even the poorest of us are
consumers. This is the era of
marketing.
Marketing began long ago,
in ages when the value of trade
was small and transportation
barn was erected on the farm.
In 1920, the house was destroy-
ed by fire and a modern brick
home built in its place.
George and Mary Kieffer
had three daughters and five
sons. In 19 43 the eldest son,
Bill, bought a farm on the 9th
concession of Turnberry, but
a year later, in March of 1044,
Bill passed away as a result of
injuries suffered in a farm ac-
cident. His brother Osc,ar then
became owner of that farm and
still resides there. His wife is
the former Anna Marie Corri-
gan, and they have eight child-
ren. The third Kieffer son,
Joseph, now owner and operator
of a farm on the 2nd of Cul-
ross, is married to the former
Teresa O'Connor and they have
seven children. The younger
sons, Michael and George, are
twins, and reside 'kitty-corner'
on Concession A. George
difficult. It was good for sellers
to know that if they took their
wares to certain spot on an
appointed day, they would find
buyers gathered there. This
knowledge centralized supply
and demand, saved time and
stimulated production for sale,
This is the basis of marketing
today. Marketing is the process
of getting goods from the place
where they are made or grown
to the place where they are to
be used. Transportation, pack-
aging, storing, advertising,
and selling are all part of the
marketing process.
The course of study for a
student planning upon entering
this field includes; Salesman-
ship, Advertising, Display,
married Berdella Durrer and
they have five children, Mich-
ael, on the home farm, mar-
ried Virginia Winters of Tees-'
water in September of 1952
and they have six children
Paul, 13; Diane, 9; David, 7;
Carol Ann, 6; Nancy, 4; and
Donna, 1.
The three Kieffer daughters
were Mary, Kathleen 'and
Blanche. Mary was a' school.
teacher and married Clarence
Roth, who passed away about
eight years ago. ShOrtow re-
sides in Preston. Kathleen
trained as a nurse arld.,}atef
became an anaesthetist, 'She
now works in a Morristpwn,.
New Jersey hospital. Blanche
married Thomas Purcell, who
passed away in August of 1966.
She now resides in Toronto.
Mary and Blanch each have
three children.
George Kieffer Sr. passed
Principles of Selling, Proper
Dress and Proper Attitudes.
The course is widely varied
and comprehensive. '
Students who study Market-
ing mainly enter the field of
selling. Other careers avail-
able are Advertising or, closely
related, Display Work. All of
these, however, require train-
ing.
The attractive thing about
this training is that a student
can receive a good portion of
it while still in high school.
A four-year business course
enables a student to enter a
good paying job or to go onto
more training and an even
better job.
Today, one in six Canadians
away in April of 1951. Mrs.
Kieffer stayed on the farm with
her sons until they married,
then moved into Teeswater.
She passed away in October of
1966; at the time of her death
she had 32 grandchildren and
two great-grandchildren.
Michael Kieffer for many
years specialized in Shorthorn
cattle, but has now devoted
his time mostly to dairy farm-
ing, with a hog enterprise that
has won him many honors. He
has installed new modern stab-
ling, and in 196'7, as part of a
Centennial project, a new
hog-finishing barn was con-
structed and the grounds were
imporved. One of our most
progressive farmers, Michael
Kieffer is an addition to the
neighbourhood. One hundred
years from now, may his "Cen-
tury Farm" still bear the name
of Kieffer!
trainee to a general manager,
or from a trainee to a vice-
president in charge of market-
ing, depending on which field
he enters- retail merchandising
or sales.
After Grade 11, in Market-
ing the students study the Trans-
portation of Goods, Material
Handling, Storage, Pricing,
Buying and Consumer Analysis.
Since there is so much f actual
knowledge to be gained, none
of these subjects can be covered
in too much depth. However,
actual practice at pricing,
stock control, working a cash
register, weighing and wrapping
setting up interior and window
displays, doing a newspaper
advertisement, as well as other
manipulatory and creative
abilities, are stressed so that
the student can become ac-
quainted with this broad field.
The Merchandising Course
is a two-year practical course,
ending after Grade 10, with
much more stress on active
participation and learning
through doing.
Neither Marketing nor Mer-
chandising can be confined to
the classroom- and so both
visits to businesses and by busi-
ness men to the school are es-
sential. Suggestions from the
retailing field have been wel-
comed as have the numerous
visual-aids that they have pro-
vided. Such close contact with
the work a-day world cannot
help but produce students who
will take a productive sole in
society as soon as they leave
the high school classroom.
Celsus, a Roman physician,
believed that rough treatment
would frighten patients out of
mental illness. He chained
and starved them, isolated
them in total darkness, and ad-
ministered cathartics in his
efforts to frighten them into
health.
is directly involved in retail
marketing. A salesman is no
longer just a persuasive talker;
he must know his product, his
market, and his customer. He
is expected to be a knowledge-
able consultant. There are
many fields in which he may
specialize: Industrial Salesman

gineer, and service; Merchant

service, wholesaler or jobber,
and detail; Consumer Sales-
