John Arnold<p>_The Evening Post_, 26 November 1924:<br> AN EARLY OPINION<br> Writing of Mr. <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Firth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Firth</span></a> in 1891 before he became headmaster, the Old Boys’ Record stated:—“A strict, but impartial and capable master, his teaching was a source of terror to the boy who shirked his work. Although a strict disciplinarian he was ever ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in difficulties. Besides, an eager enthusiast in all sports, a very prince of athletes himself, he took the greatest trouble to instil into the minds of the boys that healthy love of outdoor sports which is so essential to a youth’s physical training. The most important feature in all his work, however, was his earnest endeavour to preserve a high moral bearing in all the actions of his boys—an endeavour in which he was eminently successful.”<br><a href="https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/EP19241126.2.91" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/news</span><span class="invisible">papers/EP19241126.2.91</span></a><br>Biography at DNZB <a href="https://teara.govt.nz/en/biographies/2f7/firth-joseph" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">teara.govt.nz/en/biographies/2</span><span class="invisible">f7/firth-joseph</span></a></p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/OnThisDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OnThisDay</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/OTD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OTD</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/PapersPast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PapersPast</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Headmasters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Headmasters</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/WellingtonCollege" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WellingtonCollege</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/SecondarySchools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SecondarySchools</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/HighSchools" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HighSchools</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Wellington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wellington</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NewZealand" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NewZealand</span></a></p>
