The Goderich Rotary Club hosted Canadian teacher Chr.
McClinton at its Tilesday noon luncheon as guest speaker.
Mr. McClinton 1:s a native of Timmins Ontario and is now -
?teaching secondary school in Athens, Greece. He has been in
Goderich over the holiday season visiting with his mother,
Mrs. Helen McClinton of Keays Street Goderich.,
Mr. McClinton told the club of the adaptation that -must -
be 'made by natives of North America, and Canada par-
ticularly, who live in Greece.,
"I actually found my way there quite by accident," he ex-
• plained. "I -travelled to Turkey but upon arrival found. the
• position I was seeking filled and so moved on to Athens to
• visit friends: Eventually I was hired in my present position."
• The Canadian teaches English at'a school sponsored join-
tly by Greeks and Americans, many of Greek origin.. "Many
Greeks, who have Moved to the United States and done well
financially, help in a nionetaryk,Way to 'operate the school.",
Th( school courses, he explains," are different than in
North America and the Greek student must work very very
hard succeed in school. "I don't know how they keepup
with the tremendous workload and long hours," he observes.
Chris also cites an example of the struggle for 'higher
education in that at one engineering school 9,000 students
write entrance examinations for 900 seats,
As a Canadian Mr. McClinton sees a n Itiflifen0 on society

• importance. The Greek landscape is basi-C--ally-burnan, people
being more a 'part of it than in Canada where the vast areas -
of unpopulated landscape might be regarded as wild lira
raw.
Mr. McClinton, who now speaks the Greek language, sees
',the language as being used much more' viviglyand en-
• thesiastically than language in Canada'.
Greek ,s have a unique language problem," he eg:'
