Mr. T: I had so many teachers it's pretty hard. Some of teachers only stayed six months. I guess we must have been kind of bad kids. Well, I had I had quite a few teachers and I just can't recall all of them, but I started with Miss Statler and there was Kiss Emmet, Mrs. Wallington ...Miss Stacey, Miss Drown...Oh gee, there are some of them I'm sure I forgotten. My father was trustee when I went to school and I remember going to the mailbox... the teachers would apply to my dad for a job and when I come in with the mail I'd have my arms right full of applications. Debbie: Still talking about the school--did the school put on any special events? Mr. Si Well, the only event that really, I could recall was we always had a Christmas concert arid they were well attended by all the families and their children. The school would be full and they'd have songs and little plays. I recall one time they built a...like bleachers at the back of the school to accommodate the people. They always put up a platform out of planks and a big Christmas tree. They really went all out for that you know, in those days, that's a long time ago. Joanne: What were the Christmases like for you at home? Mr. T: Oh, we always had a great time at Christmas. All my sisters came home and sometimes they'd come--if it happened to be through the week so their husbands come-- they'd stay two or three days and we'd celebrate Christmas... Debbie: That sounds nice. Mr. T: But, I guess they call that the good old days. Of course eventually today I think Christmas is quite a holiday. My wife's family is a big family and we go there some. I think there's about forty of us when we all get to¬gether and have Christmas dinner. Joanne: What were Halloweens like for you? Mr. T: Well, at Halloween we used to...you know they used to have those little houses out at the back. The boys had a great time going over and tipping them over and they'd chase us up and down the roads, you know. Of course, we didn't do to much damage I don't think, but we done somethings. I remember one night we went to a neighbours place and how we ever done it I'll never remember. We put an old democrat up on top of a garage and I was amazed how we ever done that. Came out in the morning the democrat was up in the air. I guess they had a harder time getting it down then we did putting it up. Joanne: Did you used to ride around in the democrat?
