FORTY YEARS OF TEACHING
LEAVE PROF. FLACK YOUTHFUL
i m
Ruddy Cheeks of Retiring Head of Abington Schools Do Not
Jibe With His Tales of Stage
coach' Days
TO LOOK at his ruddy face and
twinkling blue eyes, sou wouldn't
dream Prof n L Flack had foi more
than forty years been pounding the fun
damentals of civilization tnto the heads
of several generations of Abington citi
zens But he admits It openly, just as
he admits he is nearly sixty, at the same
time declaring he is ready for a few
years of peace and quiet.
Professor Flack has resigned after
serving forty years and two months as
an Instructor For more than twenty
vears of that time he has been super
visor of the Abington schools The first
two months of his career he was a sup
ply teacher In a one-room country school
at KB a month
"Teaching was the last thing In the
world I expected to do," Mr Flack ex
plained today "I was reared within
half a mile of this place and educated
at North Wales Academy 'I had Just
.completed my course, when the teacher
her resigned, and they asked me to
fill In the last two months The next
year Mrs Jones and Mr Brown coaxed
mo to take the school till Mary or John
nie had finished. So the parents have
asked me each year to stay, till I have
taught he multiplication table to sev
eral generations of the same family.
Beralln Htage Coarh Days
"Naturally the changes have been
marked ln these forty years, but I sup
pose I have noticed them less than out
siders, because to me they came grad
ually1. Abington was a mere village ln
the midst of a great farming country ln
1878, and stage coaches carried passen
irera and mall to and from Philadelphia
and other towns. Our pupils walked to
school from miles ln every direction It
wan a shifting enrollment, because the
little folks couldn't come during the
hard winter months, and the big ones
couldn't come In fall and spring, because
they were needed on the farm."
His first school was a stone one-room
building, heated by a coal stove so you
froze one side while ou baked on the
other. There were only four teachers
and about 200 pupils In the entire town
ship then, whlje Mr, Flack estimates
" there are about forty-eight teachers and
15J3 pupils In the township today.
"BaseballT" The pedagogue smiled
remtnlscently at the question. "Forty
j ears ago I had neer heard of such a
thlnr. There wasn't any organized play
or athletics. But the boys had a good
deal of excitement oyer .Townsend's
