'Former pupils of Richmond Hill “schools can be numbered by the score who are filling some of the best posi- tions in the Province. Among our dormer citizens who have given a good account of themselves since .leaving here, probably no person is deserving of greater credit than Mr. James Brackin. Mr. Brackin resign- 6ed the position of Principal of the .Public School 22 years ago, and ac- ‘cepted a similar position in the town of Chatham, now a city. He still ‘aholds the same position, though in a much larger and more commodious school building than where he start- ed, and from the day he commenced this labors until the present time, he 'appears to have been idolized by pupils, parents and citizens alike. 'IIlhe city dailies of June 22 give a :glowing account of an At Home held I the day before, and the Banner-News eeditorially refers to the Principal of McKeough school as follows: “‘ When the story of the progress ‘of the County of Kent is written by $8.11 unbiased historian, the- name of {Brackin will be mentioned as one “who has endeared himself to more people of the district than any other one individual. “‘ Yesterday, afternoon and even- ing, the principal of McKeough fschool entertained the pupils and parents in what is considered to be one of the best equipped school edi- ffices in the country. It is doubtful if :any other institution is surrounded with so many attractions, or, in a. word, is so ‘ home like.’ “ Mr. Brackin has been teacher, counsellor and friend to several gen- erations. He is still in his prime, alert, vigorous, enthusiastic, retain- ing in a marvellous degree all that «charm of‘manner that links teacher and scholar in one common p111‘p( se. “ ‘ Knowledge is power,’ and thou- sands in Chathani, and scattered over ’this splendid Dominion of ours, and . across the border, have been made more useful citizens through the abil- ity possessed by this one man to im- part ‘ knowledge.’ “It was fitting that some tribute be paid him, and yesterday his heart .must have been gladdened by the many things said to him, and about him.” Mr. Brackin has raised a family of three sons and two daughters, and every member of the family is a skilled musician, two being teachers .of instrumental music. The Daily Planet of the 22nd tilt, in athree column article on the present and :past musicians of Chatham, concludes with the following reference to Mr. Brackin’seldest son : “ And now, in conclusion, wemust .say what has been on our heart and .mind for some time touching Mr. W. "Brackin. We enjoy his cornet play- ing, we enjoy his violin aplaying, we enjoy his piano playing, eSpecially" in thecapacity of accompanist, Where he seems so tenderly sympathetic; we enjoy his pipe-organ playing. .But when he sings he holds us spell- i*bound. What is it about that voice' which searches the deepest recesses of our hearts? Old and young feel its influence and he is greeted with the‘ warmest enthusiasm wherever he sings. That heroic strength, that sublime richness and fulness, that in- describable individuality which his voice possesses at onec~claims for him; the superior cultivation of the Ger? .man education in the musical art." WRITTENflAGFE'ElWEN TS. The Richmond Hill Board :of Edna: z-cation rarely has written agreements, with the teachers theycngage. The, latter, therefore, may leave at anyi A :timc by giving a month’s notice,j ieven if it~be in the‘middle of a term. ‘ he opiniomcf some of the members ~_of thele is that special written =agreements»do anot bind .teachcrs. This is surely a mistake, and a case in Markham seems to bear out what we say. The World of Tuesday. contains the following : “ The Markham High School Board has a written agreement, under seal, with L. H. Graham, science master, for another year, renewed as late as ‘ June 17, ’01, and they refuse to can- cel it to allow him to take the posi- tion offered to him by the Oshawa High School Board.” Markham Village appears to be getting the worst of it all round. Six months ago Messrs. Underhill &-- Sisman, who were employing a large number of men and carrying on the manufacture of boots and shoes, not liking the treatment they were re- ceiving in Markham, decided to pull up stakes and settle in Aurora. Markham entered suit against Aurora for offering inducements'to the firm in the form of a bonus, and a few days agojudgment was given against Markham, the latter to pay all costs in connection with the suit. The Markham Sun speaks of the “ mis- carriage ofjustice,” and is ready to fight the judge who gave the decision in favor of Aurora, the Minister of Crown Lands, or any person in sight. Rev. Dr. Chambers, a prominent member of the Orange Order, speakâ€" ing in Toronto at the celebration on the 12th of July, pointed out the need of orphanages fer children of deceased members. “Why should the orphans of brethren,” said hr, “ be compelled to go to public inst- 'tutlons,.or to institutions provided by the Roman Catholics ‘3 I thank God that the Roman Catholic Church open its doors in such a way, but there should be no need of sending the orphans of Orangemen to other thanthcir own institutions.” horsenndpoorlook-vzc‘, ' ' ins harness is the , worst kind of a. com- bluntlon. not only mskesthoharnsrs sud -.
