aspects Villagers must think as family The open house InvitaUon from the three fourth year University of Toronto students in landscape Architecture Is not proving its purpose according to Rod Kent one of the lads who is conducting a self determining course project ln which they are studying the validity of life style In a community as yet not af fected by urban sprawl Not too many villagers are making a point of coming around visit ana see what were doing sold the young man from the station who in his earnest desire to Impress upon the Rock- wood residents the necessity of pooling their mental resources and standing up for what they want their hometown to look like the next few years had this to say Potential resource After working In for a relaUvely short period of two months I have noticed an Invaluable resource a potential resource that at the present time is Just starting to be tapped This resource deals with an attitude The scale of Rockwood Is such that the town as a whole Is comparable to a house In a city the Individual Inhabitants home a room in this house and people are comparable to a large family People usually think of their house and territory as being of utmost importance to them Small scale If the members of the family wish to fight an issue or make a home improvement the scale Is small enough to do it if attitude that is their home and their house Just a part of it exists The people of must think as a unit as a family Selecting and Improving their me At the present time this community spirit exists in only a very few people here It must expand and become Incredibly tight if is to fight few existing pressures and the many increasing future pressures of urbanization to come Poor response Since beginning work in railway station we have invited everyone we have come in contact with to drop over and express their opinions and feelings about what form Rockwood should take on In the Accumulations of heavy snow necessitated many postponed meetings on the March agenda throughout village and Its vicinity and In some cases changes of meeting places The monthly meeting of the Womens Institute usually slated for No School House was conducted Instead at home of Mrs Margaret of With President Helen Bain on hand to conduct assembly correspondence and business matters were dealt with In quick order members voted on three topics for the next Institute short course which will be of ficially proclaimed by the Department after all the results have been tabulated Two interesting specialties made March meeting one of variation and pleasure for Uie ladles when public relations convener of the group Mrs W Guild introduced the first of her evening speakers in person of Mrs Gertrude Wallace of Rockwood who generalized extensively on her test summers trip to the Federation Womens Institute ConvenUon held In Winnipeg during Manitobas Centennial celebrations Postcards humour future The response has been far from encouraging The ideas we are preparing and hope to present to you in the near future call for the involvement of every person living in Some of these Ideas will Involve spending some money But the money you spend for the continued existence and the betterment of the Village of I consider an Investment not a loss Drop over and say hello Rod Kent and souvenirs the speaker had brought home delightfully portrned to the members some of Incidents of Mrs Wallaces attendance at the conference and members enjoyed the firsthand recall of what had taken place New touch The second portion of program was a new touch when Mrs Guild then introduced two young girls Maryjon Wenda Gray who had been invited to tell about their three day visit to the Toe Alpha Conference held last fall at Niagara Falls topic of which had dealt on Uie usage of drugs Nothing was shoved down our throats said the two girls Their effects were simply made obvious to us and we were expected to draw our own conclusions The annual meeting which usually deals with alcoholism and its problems had taken on n new slant and girls had attended representing KINDERGARTEN TEACHER Mrs D Carney shows Bradley Bender how to make a leprechaun as David Wood works on one he is making Many other kindergarten creations were on display during Education week at school Photo by Lorraine Institute Their synchronized review of the conference was refreshingly witty and the local ladles enjoyed the casual sitdown resume which the girls presented Pioneer history Mrs Florence Trousdale then gave the Institute mptto interjecting her own knowledgeable facts about early pioneer history in the area Mrs Trousdale whose family were early settlers ln in teaches a Womens Bible Class in Ebenezer and has been long known or her excerpts of local beginnings She correlated the month of St Patricks Day with her own Irish wit adding color to the finale of meeting which a delicious lunch was served by conveners Mrs Albert Shultis and Mrs
