FIFTY YEARS BUSH
CAMP TEACHING
Fifty years of progress in the teach-
ing of Canadian citizenship by way of
bunkhouse classrooms in isolated min-
ing and lumber crew camps, were
marked by Frontier College last week
at its' 50th annual board meeting.
"Thousands of laborers, particularly
immigrants who couldn't speak a word
of English, have benefitted by this
organization," said Dr. E. W.Brad-
win, principal of the college.
A teaching staff of "honest clean-liv-
ing; men willing to sweat for a labor-
er's wage all day an do a subtle tea-
ching job at night" has been selected
'personally by the white-haired doctor
of philosophy from university grad.
uates and undergraduates.
"They're not up there teaching and
preaching theology lessons," said 'Dr.
Bradwin. "They're up there as laborers
who will lend a helping band and talk
the straightforward language of the
laborer."
With the help of a book Dr. Brad-
win wrote on basic English, 69,000
newly arrived immigrants have learn-
ed English. More than 25,000 workers
have 'listened ,to impromptu discus-
sions around a map ,of Canada and
learned the country's resources, his-
tory, communications and other pre-
parations for citizenship. -
After his schooling in, Wingham,
Dr. Bradwin taught school for several
years before working -in .a luniber
camp in the Parry Sound district.
Hardship of camp life only heightened
his determination 'to educate this class
of men otherwise unreachable. Later
lie worked his way through' Queen's
University and got a' degree in econ-
omics and history at'Columbia Univer-
sity iii ,New York City.
