Supper Meeting | ' 7! 3 The Business Men's Association held a supper meeting in the base- ment of the United Church on Tues- day, February 15th, A goodly number of the local business men attended to enjoy aw splendid banquet provided by the Woman's "Association of the United Church. Of extra interest to those who il tended was the address of the evene ing from Judge John Grudeff of the Family Court, Toronto, whose subject was entitled "Lack of Understanding". Judge Grudeff did not stress the! causes of family troubles, but pointed out that so much of these problems' wose from the lack of underatanding between husband and wife. He felt that if they could look at their pro- blems with common sense and try to sce how it affects the other one, in- stead of seeing only their own dis- comfort it would be a fairly simple matter. for them to solve their own problems and they would never reach the Court, This is not a localized condition" the Judge felt, "but rather a world wide problem", In the City of Toronto alone during. the pasf 2i4 years 5000 cases had been before him, and this represented only 10, of Some cases - have presentéd very serious problems, "In one instance a husband who had never worked him- self, made a habit of stealing things which the wife had provided. for the home from her earnings, pawned the things and used the money to get drunk, when he would return home in an ugly mood and beat the wife. The Court succeeded in having him jailed twice for this offence. Other cases have been settled more satisfactorily and the Court strives to bring about an agreeable solution as often as pos- sible. Fathers have been persuaded to support their families, without the necessity of force or other unpleasant means, The effort and patient un. derstanding of the judge in charge of the case has often been enough to make the offending parties see their problems in a better light. Some amusing cases have also been before them. One such was the case of : deaf and dumb husband - and wife. After interpretation of their case it appeared that the wife complained that her husband "talked"stoo much. To sum up his remarks Judge Gru- deff said that we needed to live out the text "it is.more blessed to give than to receive" which he felt should be applied to the giving of under- standing of our fellow men, and par- ticularly our family, No matter how much affection is showered upon an individual he ean never be happy until he is ready to bestow his affection upon others. Ist vice pres. Mr. Murray Holthy drove us to the King Edward Hotel where the 655th annual Convention of the Ontario Association of Agricul. titral. Societies was in progress. Mrs, Allan Koehler, Dundalk in her presidential address stated there has heen a marked improvement in Jmany exhibit halls in recent years and a tremendous growth in junior activi- ties, especially in Northern Ontarlo. She also stated fall fairs which are attended by about 4,000,000 persons annually remain one of the most im- portant phases of agriculture. Many 'of the fall fairs are planning to cele- brate their centennial this year, Mr. F. A. Lashley Director of Agr. cultural Societies recommended the . directors attend all meetings of the Society which are open to members, particularly the annual meeting. " Miss Anna P. Lewis, Director of the Institute Branch brought greet- ings. ! : Mrs, Alex McKinney convener of handicrafts had a wonderful display of quilts, rugs, leatherwork, ete . Mr. Howard Giles, President of the Ont. Ass. of Agr. Societies brought greetings. Miss Margaret Dove, demonstrated the art of arranging floral bouquets. She also told us the proper way to cut flowers and treat the stems. to make them last longer. Miss Sybil Bennett M.P. Georgetown stated in spite of the fact that people are inclined to think Ontario is be- coming highly industrialized, agricul- ture still remains the basic industry, and all the good things enjoyed today stem from the early farms and little rural communities. On an international level, Miss Ben- nett said evéry war that has. ever been fought was over Agriculture. The situation in Russia today, in Chinm, Japan, and other countries, boils down to the desire for more land so that people can have the basie things which countries like Canada enjoy. Miss Bennett appealed to rural women to do everything in their power, includ- Ing education to keep the boys and" girls on the land and to make than realize that agriculture is not only a fundamental industry, but a highly scientific one that calls for brains and education. Mrs. Milton Fisher, Emo described the contrast of modern day transpor- tation to the horse and buggy days. In the evening about 700 sat down to a bountiful banquet which was fol- lowed by a speech by Mr. Norman Moore, Public Relations Dept. Cock- shutt Farm Equipment Ltd. Brant- ford, He spoke of the wonderful hert- tage we have in Canada., Entertain- ment by the Simpson Entertainment Bureau, with its all Canadian talent was much enjoyed by all. ° Mrs. L.
