Recently I wrote a bit con-
cerning that fine teacher --now
retired- -Miss Gladys
McDowell, There are over c'r
thousand of her pupils right in
this area --isn't that woiide'rliiI?
I enjoyed so much listening to
little Stories of things that
happened 'over those 30 years
spentat the old Central School.
When her parerl.ts yKere
living, she had lived 'at' the
corner house. 13t•itannia at
So'Oth •St. which Dr. Such now
has for his offices, •
"It was such a big house my
mother said she always felt as
though she shduld put on a hat
to go' to the front door" --a real
route'mare h. ,
I can understand why she has
such a wonderful sense of
humor .and happy outlook on
life. This was the family way of
Itfe laughing, teasing, helping
each and e-vet'yi)ne I would
have loved: tri) have- known this
family,
She told about her- own high
schuoI days and I'could just feel
the fun and laughter that went
hong e itch her.

about that old high school
