BERTHA MacGREGOR , 262.2025 Mrs. Laird Mickle had a pleasant surprise , last Thursday afternoon when a fortncr Hensallite found her relaxing in the back lawn of her home. The passerby said, "Hello there Dorothy Welsh, and for a moment she could not recall who it was. But when he said, Warrener, she said, Happy Warrener, or is that what they used to call you?" She was able to name Gerald, also his brother Alvin, and one of his two sisters, Evelyn. They hadn't seen each other for sixty years, after he left Hensall in 1923, when he was sixteen years old. He was the eldest of his family. Mr, and Mrs. Warrener lived in the home where Mrs. Cora Patterson now resides, just across the street from Mrs. Mickie's home. The Warreners moved to,.Lansing, Mich, where the children all went to school and were married. Gerald graduated from uni- versity in engineering. His father was a baker and his business was on Main Street where Brian Richman's photography studio now is. He found the name Joynt as he walked up and down the business section and went in to enquire if it were any relation to a Laird Joynt, whom he used to chum with years ago. His other young friends from Hensall were Sam Rannie, Ferris Cantelon, and Morris (Molly) Farquhar. Gerald had a nice visit with Don Joynt and it was Don who mentioned that Mrs. Mickle was living on Main Street not far from there. He visited Mrs. Mickle around 2 p.m. and even brought along former pictures of his young Mensal!, friends and other pictures taken before the family left Hensall. He stayed all afternoon talking over old times, about his family of five -- all Well educated having university degrees - and his only son who was a medical doctor. His parents passed away in Lansing a few years ago. The family is now scattered in the United States. 'But one sister came back to retire in Ontario, just north of here. He arrived at her home from Indiana where he and his wife now live on Wednesday evening and he decided to leave for Hensall early next morning, arriving around 11 a.m, Mrs. Mickle thought there were maybe some people in the area and surrounding area who still remember the Warreners.

Mothers leaves the desk ARNOLD MATHERS After being the principal for 18 years, Arnold Mathers will be leaving Huron Centennial School in Brucefield and starting at J.A.D. McCurdy School in Huron Park in Sept. Mr, Mathers was the school's first principal in 1967 when the building was nearly completed. He became a member of the Huron County Board of Education in September 1966 and principal in April, when Huron Centennial opened its doors, Before Huron Centennial, Mr. Mathers was the principal at Osborne Public School. He was also Osborne's first principal when the school opened in 1964. Before Osborne, he taught in a Toronto senior public school and poor to that he was stationed at his first school in Bruce County. A native of Morris Township, Mr. Mathers attended a small one room school for his early education, before attending Wingham high school. He received his B.A. from Western University, attended Tea- cher's College, and received his Masters degree from the Ontario institute of Studies. All these credentials have helped the Brucefield principal to form a school that is now one of the best in curriculum and attendance in Huron County. "We are a unique school because we are the leader in the county for beginning programs," he said. Mr. Mathers said Huron Centennial was the first school in the area to begin an in depth French program which includes a special language experience for primary grades. The school also initiated the idea of kindergarten pupils coming to school, every second day. "This way, the parents wouldn't have to worry about picking up the children halfway through the day." Mr. Mathers said Huron Centennial has great leadership in its music and special education programs. Many of the school's staff are members of the Curriculum Committee and the Board of Education. "This way they help to write the curriculum." "They (staff) are a tremendousoup," he noted. "We are far more like a family." He said the school has a very small turnover of staff. "Once the people get here and they like it, they don't want to leave." Mr. Mathers is looking forward to the challenge of becoming the newrincipal of J.A.D. McCurdy Public School. Inpthe past, the school has had two principals; one for regular studies and one for students who are developmentally handicapped. "My job is to start as the principal of both the developmentally handicapped students and those involved in the regular studies program." He said he will be in charge of developing more integration between both segments of the school. "The school is a very community based school" he said "1 will be involved in trying to bring the staff closer together." Mr. Mathers said J.A.D. McCurdy Public School draws students from a wider area that stretches from Kippen to Parkhill and includes a number of group homes. "This certainly makes the school a different population." "The staff brings together a number of college trained specialists, teachers' aides and volunteers from the community." Despite his obvious enthusiasm about tackling a new position, Mr. Mathers is also hesitant about going. "No doubt. I leave this building with great reluctance. But after 18 years, it's time for someone else to come in and experience the enjoyment of being here."
