JOSEPH A. GIBSON A native of Scotland. who came to Canada in 1919 after serving with the Argyle and Suther- land Highlanders during World War I. Joseph A. Gibson served in the educational field for 44 years from 1920 to 1964. Nine of these years were spent as a teacher and the. other 35 as an inspector and superintendent. He began his career as an inspector in Well- ington County, then went to Ovillia where he spent 24 years. From there he went to Weston. Swansea and Vaughan Township for another five years. When Vaughan Township Public School Board was set up in 1960. trustees chose Mr. Gibson to be its superintendent of education dur- ing those first formative years. That they made a wise choice is evident in the fact that the board and its administration has served as a model for other township school areas. Mr. Gibson carried this taxing burden until his retirement in 1964 when he retired. The board recognized his outstanding service to the township by naming a new school at Maple, the “Joseph A. Gibson Public School.” A. STANLEY ELSON The service of A. Stanley Elson in the field of education has also been recognized by the coveted Canada Centennial Medal. Mr. Elson spent 36 years as an educator. coming to Richâ€" mond Hill in 1948 as principal of Richmond Hill High School. When Thornhill Secondary School was set up in 1955 he became its principal. Its first year was spent in RHHS as the two schools shared the premises on a shift system. Mr. Elson then moved his well-organized school into its own brand-new building in Sep- tember 1965 and continued as its popular princi- pal until his retirement in 1965. He has also been closely associated with the John Howard Society. Since his retirement his work for this society has taken him into most penal institutions in the province where he has been of great assistance to the inmates. He is also an active participant in the “Confreres.” this society’s social group. Much of Mr. Elson’s time, these days is devoted to counselling at “The House of Con- cord”. the Salvation Army home for boys located at Concord. Mr. Elson has introduced a grades 9 and 10 booster course there which has enabled many of the young men to enter provincial trade schools and equipthemselves to earn a living and become good citizens. The numbers of these who are making good is remarkable and more than repays therdevoted man who is spending a very active retirement with them. MISS FLORENCE STAUNTON Another recipient whose retirement has brought continuation of a life of service to the community is Miss Florence Staunton, who taught in schools in Peterboro, her home, town. Newmar- ket and Richmond Hill. Besides this she was head teacher at Mercer Reformatory for Women for a decade. giving her a total of 42 years in education. Nine of these years were spent in Richmond Hill. two years at MacKillop Public School and the other seven in Pleasantville Public School. , Miss Staunton retired in 1966. but immedâ€" iately began work in the York Educational ('linic. She has also served for the past two years in the home instruction unit for the Richmond Hill Public School Board. At present she has three pupils who are not able to attend school because of physical disabilities. ltltlllll llllllllllllllllllllllIllllillllllllIllmlllllltlltllllllllllllltlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll g a 5‘- =2 E i fl lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll':7; l unity Happenings ready to go home.
