KANE - THE SPIRIT LIVES ON<br />
We enjoyed our year in Kane, taking with us memories<br />
<strong>of</strong> hard work and fun. We stayed in Kane only one<br />
year and discontinued teaching for a while to further my<br />
studies at the University.<br />

I grew up on a farm at Stephenfield, Manitoba (near<br />
Carman), and came to Kane School in 1947, after my<br />
teacher training in Winnipeg. My pupils were all special<br />
and well-behaved. And I tried to be my best too because<br />
the fathers <strong>of</strong> four <strong>of</strong> my pupils were on the School Board.<br />
I have pleasant memories also <strong>of</strong> the Sunday morning services<br />
and Ed Groening’s studies on “God’s Plan Through<br />
The Ages”. Both took place in that brick school house<br />
with the year 1920 on it. (That was five years before I was<br />
born.) It’s gone now. And I miss it.
