Reflection : Dorothy (Monkley) MacLean / recall, when I was in Grade Four, a program on the radio, 'Schurman's School Parade'. I entered that program and won. Then I had to compete in the finals. I was given the poem, 'The Miller and the Dee' and had to practice for the big day. Our minister was Dr. S. R. Prince , better known as Tannie, and he proceeded to help me. He would come to our home and we would work on this piece of poetry. Our efforts were rewarded — I placed second in the Gr. 1-4 category for reading. That was May 24, 1950 and I will always remember Dr. Prince and 'The Miller and the Dee'. Reflection : ThelmaJohnson Rev. Theodore Ross was a very kind man. While he was minister in Lot 16 , I was taking a Business Course in Summerside and finding typing difficult. My little finger would not do what it was supposed to do. Mr. Ross , upon hearing of my problem, gave me his old Underwood typewriter to practice on. I still have this typewriter in my possession. 117 CHURCH MINISTERS
