_ AILEEN FRANK

- Pioneer teacher retires

It-was the end of June in 1934 that she arrived

. in town on the midnight train from Prince
- Rupert. The depression yedrs - when finding a

job was a real accomplishment.

Leaving her home in Victoria, Miss Aileen
Longworth headed into a little known north to
take a position onthe staff of the Kitsurnkalum
school, wherever that was! .

“School opening found her as‘one of a staff of

four in the old Kalum school, now being used by
School District 88 as a resource centre.

In June, 1938, she quit her teaching job to
marry Floyd Frank, a partner in Frank Brothers
Dairy. For the next twenty years she was'a busy
housewife raising a family of four, three sons
and a daughter, plus doing a bit of substituting in:
y . schools during the 1980s.

_ In 1958 she decided to go back teaching full
time, again at the old Kalum school. When
Cassie Hall school opened she was tranaferred
there, acting the last ten years as librarian.

Over the years Mrs. Frank has seen many
changes in education, many new ideas tried out .
for a-period and most of them discarded again as

_ impracticable,

.This year Mrs. Frank reached’ ‘the age. of
retirement: To show the esteem in which she was
held, Cassie Hall school had a plaque carved in a
native Indian motif, named the “‘Aileen Frank
Citizenship Award in recognition of her 20 years
of service. Cassie Hall Elementary School’. The

plaque will be: inseribed each year with the name

of the pupil acheiving the beat record in
citizenship.

On Thursday Cassie Hall schoo! helda farewell ..

party, with the school band playing and the
pupils joining in singing Auld Lang Syne. Many
parents also joined in the singing. School District

88 was represented by Secretary Treasurer Ted.

Wells, and Nan Harrison, from the board of

trustees, had the honour of presenting on behalf

of the Board, a silver tray and six silver gablets.
School Principal Rick Shaw gave a: farewell

‘speech and presented Mrs. Frank with a coffee

table from Cassie Hall School. Mrs. Frank ex-
pressed appreciation for all the good wishes and
presents she had received, and recounted some
of the highlights of the 25 years she served as
‘teacher and librarian.
Friday at noon the Cassie Hall staff attended a
farewell dinner in Gims Cafe with Mrs.Frank as
the guest of honour. No path runs smoothly over
twenty years and in a joculare mood, some of the
teachers recounted minor difficulties they had
with their consclentious but strict librarian. The
Cassie Hall staff presented Mrs. Frank with a
large original painting of ‘the Sleeping Beauty

Mountain by “Hugo” original pastel artist who’

was especially commissioned forthe occasion,
So after all these yeara Mra. Frank has retired.
But knowing Mrs. Frank and her willingness to

lend a hand when needed, we can be sure that the -

community hasn't seen or heard the last of her
help or service.

“Perhaps the costs will
be astronomical to. run a
service to Lakelse Lake,”
said Hallsor, “at this
Stage we don't know."

“We will be gearing the
service to areas where. it
is feasible,” he con-
tinued.

Hallsor said the nroject
would be funded in part
by the provincial
government through the
authority for the first five
years. -

“There’s a five year
financing formula,” he
explained, “and the
formula is based on
operating deficits.”

In the first year, the
municipality would have
to pick up 25 per cent of
any operating deficlt in
the first two years of
operation, Hallsor stated,
and would then assume
an increasing portion of
the deficit on a sliding
scale ‘until = . the
municipality became
responsible for 100
cent of the deficit after 5

years.

Hallsor added that the
final results of the study
will not be available until
the end of this year, but
there will be an interim

report released about -

September 15.

--"Fhe project is at a

very formative stage
right now,'? concluded
Hallsor, ‘‘but at least its
progressing.” -
