Delicate, delightful and dainty. That was on JELL-O’s boxes many years ago. And one always had room for JELL-O! The trade mark name JELL-O began in 1897, in New York, by Perl B Wait a cough syrup manufacturer. He and his wife May added flavouring to granulated gelatin and sugar and May named it JELL-O. The first four Jell-O flavours were orange, lemon, strawberry, and raspberry.

Once again, it was great to be away and it is great to be back home! This homebody strayed, first off to Iceland and then over to France, experiencing new foods and scenes, and refreshing family ties. The plot began when my daughter-in-law expressed a desire to return to France. Being a strong support buddy, I assured her that I would go with her (Sue may be more careful what she says in my presence!). I comfortably left all the travel arrangements and holiday plans in her most capable hands. I have no regrets. Not certain how my travel companion feels.

Some of the readers may recall seeing an article entitled, “A Vanishing Species” published last year in papers throughout Manitoba. In that article I briefly outlined the history of the permit teachers in Manitoba. I also shared with readers a number of experiences of permit teachers throughout the province.
This year, instead of relating a number of permit teachers’ experiences, I would like to highlight the contributions of one Permit Teacher, the late Peter Maendel, whom I consider a “Pioneer in the Field of Hutterite Education”
