31 it iiicutnnattt GEORGE KENNEDY SHEANE, B.A., M.A., D.PAED. On August 15, 1952, Dr. G. K. Sheane, Associate-Professor of Math¬ ematics and Science at the Calgary branch of the University of Alberta, passed away. To those of us who knew him, either by working with him or by attendance in his classes, came the realization of a great loss. Dr. Sheane was born in 1892 in Bruce county, Ontario. He received his public and high school education in Selkirk, Manitoba. He then attended the University of Manitoba, later transferring to Alberta, where he received his B.A. in 1915. The degree of Master of Arts was con¬ ferred upon him in 1941 and he received the D. Paed. degree from the University of Toronto in 1948. After a year at the Camrose Normal School, Dr. Sheane began his teaching career as principal in the public school in High River. The Calgary Normal School welcomed him to the staff in 1928 and in 1945, when the school became a part of the University, he was appointed to teach math¬ ematics and science. Dr. Sheane made outstanding contributions to the field of education in Alberta, not only in the teaching field but also by writing many outstand¬ ing textbooks—books which are noted for their clarity, conciseness of pre¬ sentation and meaningful subject matter. But impressive as these educational accomplishments are, it will not be for these alone that we shall remember him. Through the years we shall recall the kindly professor who took such a personal interest in each student. Nothing was too much trouble as long as it helped some individual. From the first day of the term, when he straightened out twisted timetables and helped bewildered beginners, to the last day, when he gave them his parting good wishes, his thoughtfulness was always evident. His contributions to education were not only in tangible things, but also in the ideals and inspir¬ ation which he transmitted to us who follow on behind. “The best portion of a good man ' s life — His little nameless unremembered acts Of kindness and of love.
