The Murders In The Rue
Education is the key
NT News's Conor Byrne meets one of the Top End's most distinguished characters - Tom Pauling.
"He sat on a desk on a dark and gloomy day with just the desk light on and read the whole class Murders in the Rue Morgue by Edgar Allan-Poe. The bell went for recess and nobody moved. The bell went for the end of recess and nobody moved. The maths teacher waited outside until he finished the book. Everybody was just transfixed - it was extraordinary."
HE was English teacher Brian Tetley at a school in New South Wales.
Above is the lasting memory of outgoing Administrator Tom Pauling AO about the man who changed his views on education.
Mr Pauling, 64, leaves Government House - his home and office for the past four years - at the end of this month to be replaced by former Justice Sally Thomas.
Education is Mr Pauling's biggest bugbear from his Territory tenure.
He reckons he has visited every Territory school.
"Children are entitled to the best education we can give them," he said.
"It's not a question of grace nor favour, it's an entitlement. Unless we give them that education they're never going to reach their full potential," he said.
"Educating indigenous kids has got subsidiary problems. A lot of communities - by the time the child is five - their hearing is severely compromised from infections in the ear.
"If a kid can't hear in class he can't learn.
" It's hard for teachers to place them in the classroom.
"Then you might have a dysfunctional family who stays up all night playing cards and drinking and arguing and then the kid doesn't get any sleep.
"And then the kid doesn't get any breakfast and then he goes to school hungry and so the attention span is gone."
Not everywhere is bad.
Mr Pauling sees glimmers in some communities where attendance is high.
In other schools there still is a long bridge to build before anything promising has a hope of emerging.

Fervent Reader » Murders in the Rue Morgue and Other Stories by ...
Summary: This is an audiobook collection of Edgar Allan Poe short stories and poetry, including “Murders in the Rue Morgue,” “The Purloined Letter,” “The Thousand-and-Second Night of Scheherazade,” “A Descent into the Maelstrom,” “The Raven,” and “The Masque of the Red Death.” All works are read by David Case.
“Murders in the Rue Morgue” is widely held to be the first detective story, though Poe called it a work of “ratiocination.” This locked roomy mystery features literature’s first detective, C. Auguste Dupin (though he is never referred to as such), who solves the crime based on clues that the incompetent Paris police force overlook.
“The Purloined Letter” is another Dupin mystery; “The Thousand-and-Second Night of Scheherazade” imagines the storyteller of the 1001 Arabian Nights continuing her tales for another evening; “A Descent into the Maelstrom” is the story of a man who survives a hurricane and whirlpool while out to sea; “The Raven” is about a grieving lover’s waning sanity; and “The Masque of the Red Death” is a horror story about a group of nobles who try to wait out a plague by hiding in a castle.

Of course I’d heard of “Murders in the Rue Morgue” before, but this was the very first time I ever read (or, more accurately, listened to) it. It was nice to finally get a look at the first detective story ever written — and to disabuse myself of the notion that the murders took place in a morgue called Rue! (Now I know Rue Morgue is a fictional street in Paris. Duh.) “The Raven” is one of my favorite poems of all time.

Reading over Poe's "Murders in the Rue Morgue" for extension one. Interesting introduction to the genre.
And, to quench my Bela Lugosi thirst, "The Black Cat," "The Invisible Ray," "Murders in the Rue Morgue." Lugosi's better than the movies.
