Mr. Hayter became interested in Robert Service's poems when Hayter toured Canada with his musical group. Mr. Hayter heard a poem of Robert Service and thought it was wonderful. Mr. Hayter then began to perform in front of adult audiences dramatizing the poems and doing an excellent job in expressing his feelings. He recited "Bessie's Boil" in a real life manner which was the favourite poem of the majority of students. "The Cremation of Sam McGee" was another popular poem of the students and teachers.
