perience to face ad, Many' pupils in
so many classes. :That was before
the school district was divided,
I still ba.ve the 'picture which
was taken at the 'school with the
trustees present. It . was my first

ton Normal in .1906 ,at the age of
eighteen.,

It is a fine location and we raise

peaches, grapes, pears, plums,
apples, berries, etc. The climate is
very good, although there is quite
a lot of rain during the winter and
a lot of dull weather. Because of
ill health at the time I resigned
