10 The Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville. June 16 1976 Section Two Surprise Ending for Volunteer in Pînes Skit Learning a hard lesson, Wally Kiers had a bowl of water thrown on his lap after complaining to the waiter in a skit performed by the Camp Tawingo students at the recent Pines Senior Public School Drama Night. Mr. Kiers, not knowing what was to come, left a comfortable seat among the audience and volunteered to help the students out for the "Waiter, Waiter" skit. Besides learning never to complain to a waiter even if there is a fly in his soup, the experience may dampen Mr. Keirs' eagerness to volunteer for a skit in the future. Spooking Pines School Spectators find a lecturn very convenient, when we have speakers. It was decided to get one. The Roll Call - "Which form of advertising displeases you most" was well responded to by members. The East Group on "Resol- utions," with Mrs. Wm. Ash- ton and Mrs. L. Broome were in charge for the program. Mrs. Ashton read a poem on an "Upright Man" which introduced their subject. Mrs. R. Best gave the Motto - "Resolutions are the voice of the People. Let your voice be Heard". Mrs. Best said it is useless if we get good ideas if you don't carry them through. So often we falter and nothing comes from our original plan. We become weak and fail because difficulties seem too great. A Sing Song provided the music. Mrs. Charles Lang- maid was in charge of this. Pastor Erb, of the Hampton Circuit, was our guest speaker for the evening. The subject had been suggested to Mr. Erb by the group. Rather a difficult one for anyone to undertake - 'Pornography'. This subject was decided on because moral values, the ideal homes and the sanctity of marriage seems to be losing their loyalty. Pastor Erb handled the subject well. Books, pictures and other suggestive methods easily available are teaching our people the wrong way of life. If we do not teach our children high ideals and God's Purpose in our families, we are all to blame. The Roman Empire fell into decay because ail moral life failed. Pastor Erb said we can only expect this same destruction will event- ually happen to our beautiful countries. He mentioned Mal- colm Muggeridge, who has become a Christian, forseeing this future. Bing Crosby doesn't agree with the per- missiveness we give our children. We actually are too good to our children. Some parents encourage their children to loose morals by their example and indiffer- ence. We too often bypass the issue - free sex seems to be the way of the enlightened age in which we live. Pastor Erb also said the teachers we have have the second greatest influence on our upbringing. A teacher's first qualification used to be - Is he or she a Christian? Now it is not even considered. Drugs and drink also aid in our downfall. Drugs are now sometimes used in senior elementary schools. The whole issue is becoming a political one. We must begin in our homes and then our schools, if we are serious about fighting this frightening future. Pastor Erb told us many sad incidents in which he was called upon to help young people in his work. From all he told us our Solina Women's Institute wishes to send an Emergency Resol- ution to our area convention in the Fall. If it passes there, it will be sent on to the government. We hope to use our very strong influence to create a better and more beautiful country in which to live. Pastor Erb said: We are 3 fold beings - we are spiritual, mental and physical. This is what God intended when he created man and woman - Through this beautiful rela- tionship we bring our children into the world to complete our happy home. How much greater a child is loved and cared for in such a home. He has a chance, if we teach him the right way to live. Pastor Erb made us see the real beauty of life - and we are al better from hearing his in- formal talk On behalf of the group, Mrs. Bruce Tink thank- ed Pastor Erb and gave him a, slight token, which he return- ed, as a donation to our carpet. Mrs. Ashton read a poem which honoured grand- mothers, by showing how a child may long remember his grandmother when she plays a game with him and shows him her love and attention. Special prizes were given to some of the grandmothers present - Newest Grandmother - Mrs. C. Langmaid. The one whose grandchildren are farthest away - Mrs. R. Fraser. The one with most grandchildren - Mrs. W. Parrinder. Oldest grandchild - Mrs. Parrinder, but given to Mrs. H. Pascoe as she was second. One who grows Holly Hocks - Mrs H. Yellowlees. The one with most granddaughters - Mrs. T. Baker. The one who babysat last week - Mrs. F. Watson. There was a little more musie with Mrs. C. Langmaid in charge and then Mrs. R. Fraser and Mrs. R. Best put on a skit on 'Equal Right for Man'. On T.V. Women's Rights dominate, so this skit made fun of this by Rita dressed as a man in highly advertised undies, modelling and Pat commentating. This was a real scream! Mrs. Ashton thanked all who assisted on the program - especially Pastor Erb.

The school's vice-principal, Rick Santomero will take a senior teaching position under the school board's new policy which eliminates vice-princi- pal positions in the separate school system. A number of schools have also been twinned in the reorganized system returning 10 of the 25 principals in the board's jurisdiction to teach- ing roles. Director of Education Peter Roach explained some of the changes made to the separate school system under the restructured policy. "Vice-principals in all schools will return to straight St. Joseph's vice-principal's $1400 allowance will drop to $1000 in the senior teaching position. The senior teaching role which seven of the 10 former principals will take involves replacing the principals when they are away he said. In the Northumberland area, St. Michael's School in Cobourg and Grafton's St. Mary's School have been twinned under one principal. The separate school board is satisfied with the results of four schools that have already been twinned in their juris- diction, Mr. Roach said. Besides reducing the number of principals that the INSTRUCTORS NEEDED FOR EVENING CLASS PROGRAMS Instructors will be needed this Fall at Courtice Secondary School in the following evening classes: Antique Collecting Gourmet Cooking Rug Hooking Guitar Interior Decorating Upholstery If you have skill or knowledge which would permit you to be employed as an instructor of other adults in an evening class, please CALL GARTH GILPIN, Evening Class Principal, at 728-5146 (school) or 623-2997 (home).

"In the smaller schools where principals also teach, it decreases the number of times classes are interrupted by the principal being called away to meetings", he added. Solfna W.I. For some years the Solina W.I. has honoured its Grand- mothers. June seemed the ideal time. Only one problem most of the members have achieved this honour. We are all happy to be in the club - even if it seems to point out that we are getting into that older category. The meeting was held in the Community Hall on June 9th with Mrs. Fred Watson, presi- dent, and Mrs. Howard Mill- son, secretary-treasurer in charge. After the opening and usual business. several announce- ments were made. Mrs. Har- vey Yellowlees, a director, told us our July outing would be in the form of a noon hour picnic at Cloka on July 14th. All ladies and their children of our còmmunity- are invited to join with us. A pot luck dinner will be served at 12:30 and a program of sports will follow. Mrs. Wesley Hills sent us a "Thank You" for the W.I. gift to them, on the occasion of their 25th Anniversary. The committee in charge of getting information on a floor covering for the basement of the Hall, presented their report with Mrs. Tom Baker as spokesman. Considerable discussion followed. Finally the majority voted in favour of a carpet type of covering. Those in charge have worked hard on this project so we'll watch for results in future. It should add a real attraction to our Hall. A tea, put on by a ladies' group of Free Masons of Oshawa, will be held at Mrs. F. Hoag's in Sept. This is to aid the Solina School to buy material used by the children. Hampton W:I. have a straw- berry tea soon. Mrs. R. Best suggested that our W.I. would Ontario LEGISLATION EFFECTIVE MAY 21ST, 1976 Residential premises: Where the rent for residential premises has been increased Dy up to eight per cent since January 1, 1976 and rent review proceedings have 'not been initiated, no further increase in rent for the premises can be made for a period of 12 months from the date of the last previous rent increase.
