Bebicatton Newton proudly dedicates this Yearbook to Dr. J. C. PINCOCK upon his retirement as the SUPERINTENDENT OF WINNIPEG SCHOOLS Dr. J. C. Pincock, a native of Newfoundland, began his education at the age of five. His father was an itinerant Minister of the Methodist Church in Newfoundland. Dr. Pincock received his earlier education in a number of seaport towns in Newfoundland. In 1898 his father was moved to St. John’s, the capital of Newfoundland, and he was then able to attend the Methodist College in that city for five years. In 1903, he completed his high school course and matriculated to London University, England. From 1903 to 1905, Dr. Pincock taught school at Twillingate, a large island off the Newfoundland coast, and there had his introduction to the teaching profession. In September 1905, he came to Canada to attend Mt. Allison University, and graduated from that institution in 1908 with the degree of B.A. In 1909, he took his M.A. degree from the same university. In 1908, he also obtained his Grammar School License from the Province of New Brunswick and in the same year was appointed Principal of the high school at Dorchester, N.B. In 1910, he joined the teaching staff of Aberdeen High School, Moncton, N.B. and for two years was teacher of mathematics there. In 1912, he came to Winnipeg, having just married Miss Olive Stothart of Chatham, N.B., who had been a teacher on his staff at Dorchester. In Winnipeg, he taught Mathematics on the staff of the Central Collegiate Institute. In August 1919, he was appointed Secretary to the Department of Superintendence. In 1921, he became Assistant Superintendent and in 1935, Superintendent of Schools. His own university of Mount Allison conferred on him the degree of L.L.D. honoris causa, on his appointment as Superintendent. During his long experience in the Winnipeg schools, Dr. Pincock has seen many changes and a great deal of development. When he came to Winnipeg there were only 18,000 pupils in the schools altogether and of these only 1500 were in high school, grades 9 to 12. Now there are more than 31,000 pupils in the schools and of these well over 6000 are in grades 9 to 12. On his retirement, Dr. Pincock plans to remain in Winnipeg and hopes to continue to serve his city in the many varied activities of community life. Newtonian 3
