THANKSGIVING by Bea Hamilton..... .The old school house at Beaver Point Hcs silent and empty most ofthe time since it's closing day in July of 1951, when the Consolidated School at Ganges took over oil thedistricts. Built in 1884., b/ Samuei Beddis and his -son Chark-s, pioneers of Saltspring Island, the school nowis G part of the park area in that district. And last Sunday, flowers, fruit and vegetables transformed theiittL- sch_)ol room into a place of beauty and peace^ as Archdeason G.H. Holmes conducted the annualHarvest Thanksgiving Service. The oSd wood heater was burning brightly in the dim Sight Old benches hovereplaced the school seats and desks, blackboards are still in place and gas or oil lamps are ready to be litwhen dusk falls. As Mrs. A. Stevens touched the old organ last Sunday and Thanksgiving hymns were sungby sons '".nd daughters of the pioneers who gathered for quiet worship, there was a poignant memory of pastdays - of children running in and out - of teachers who had come and gone— some forgotten - someremembered but ail taking their place in the history of this histon'ca! oldschool building.
