The Forums agreed that wonicn should not only participate in meetings but they should have! the appartunity ta take office if they bave the time and abil- ity. They pointed out when ai woman is interested in attend- ing farm meetings. she is bet- ter equipped ta help her hus- band because she understands his problems and can discuss, them with hlm. Programmes ai special inter- est ta wamen, ladies.nights, in- vitations ta wives on notices. ai meetings, women on planning committees for meetings were ail suggestions irom the For- ums as ideas ta encourage wives ta attend meeting. t Jwas mentioned that W7omse' Institutes and Farm Forumrs have helped teach women how; ta participate in meetings. Some Forums said that men aiten aren't as interested in their organizations as they should be, and when the wom- en's interest is aroused, it is aiten her enthusiasmn that gets hlm ta attend meetings more regularly. In order ta give Iwomen a chance ta, serve in office, same Forums suggested it would be a good idea ta have a man and woman alternate for each term ai office. Many ai the Forums express- ed the opinion that women were as interested in farm or- ganization ar the men but were content ta sit back and not take an active part. Some ai the groups sugges'ted it would be beneficial ta the cammunity if women also took a greater in- terest in municipal affairs, such as school boards, municipal gov- ernment and hospital boards. In the cases where there are children, it was suggested that there could be baby-sitting fa- cilities, nursery facilities or su- pervised recreation sa the chul- dren could be brought along -ta thie meeting andi let the mo- ýe ther take part in the discussion. e Teenage Bowling 3.

To aur mind the reason for this is verv plain and is flot due to the fact that the speakers have ceased ta be appreciated. The trouble is that there are some 54 public or semi-public organizations in this tawn of 3,030. People are tired ta death going ta meetings. - Aimonte Gazette.
