Many Bowmanville Rotarians joined in the spirit of the occasion by bringing their secretaries to the luncheon. The general public can do without the image of the secretary as a dumb blonde or a mediocre typist who spends her time talking on the telephone and painting her nails. ! Secretarial stereotypes ; portrayed by Dolly Parton, ! Jane Fonda, or Lily Tomlin I in the movie Nine to Five are ■ entertaining, but unfortu- '» nately some people really ' believe they represent the • real secretary, said Cathy 1 Jubenville in her comments ' at a meetingof the Bowmanville Bowmanville Rotary Club last week, f "Today's professional ; secretary is career • oriented.

Secretaries arc looking for an opportunity to become become part of the decisionmaking decisionmaking process and to be regarded as professionals. In addition to a mastery of office skills, the professional professional secretary shows inia- tivc and judgment as well as decision-making. ability within her own terms of reference, reference, said Mrs, Jubenville.

She quoted from one study which estimates that a good secretary can double the productivity of her employer, employer, while a poor one can cut her employer's productivity productivity in half. Mrs, Jubenville urged her audience to give their secretaries secretaries more responsibil ity and to consider them a member of the overall management management team. Allowing them an opportunity to attend attend professional conferences conferences and seminars is also a good move for employers, she said. "To the outside world, your secretary is a mirror image of you and your business," business," said Mrs. Jubenville. Members of the Rotary Club attending last week's luncheon meeting at the Port Darlington Marina Hotel were advised that in the United States, the House of Representatives and the Senate has declared declared all of 1984 to be the "Year of the Secretary." For those employers who have missed their opportunity opportunity to recognize the work of their secretaries during Secretaries Week, Mrs. Jubenville pointed out that they have the rest of the year to show their appreciation appreciation to these important members of their office staff. The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, May 2,1984 9 WESLEYVILLE For the regular service the church was well filled to share in the song and worship. The combined choirs sang "Allelu- jah" and the second anthem was by seniors only, a rousing and joyous "Christ is Risen, Hallelujah." Rev. Gordon Rutherford impersonated Peter, dressed in costume, to emphasize his presentation which realistically portrayed the agony of Peter's sorrow for his denial. The senior classes of the Sunday school returned after their class opening to hear the story. A yellow chrysanthemum, Easter lily and flowers in the windows were the floral offerings. offerings. Mrs. E. Barrowclough and Mrs. Helen Dinner greeted greeted the congregation at the door. An addition to the church was the arrangement of the three beautiful flags, Dominion, Provincial, and Christian, in a wooden holder made by Mr. Burnham of the Cobourg road. They were arranged arranged by Albert Woodruff and the rest of the board of stewards. The three crosses at the top were purchased by group two of the U.C.W. with an extra gift of money received received from catering. Several families of the Wesleyville people had absent members home for the Easter weekend or part of it. Carroll and June Nichols had daughter daughter Joan and grandsons from Chatham, Doug and Gloria Young and Alyson, as well as Donald and Joyce Tiffin of Toronto. Gwen Marchais De La Roché with husband Claude and son Bradley were with the Archie Fords, the Karvonens of Scarborough with Barrowcloughs and the Edey family of Bowmanville with Thorndykes. Many area friends of Harold and Ann Behm will be glad to hear they are both home from Toronto hospital. Ann was there for surgery and when Harold went to see her, suffered suffered a heart attack and was hospitalized there for some time. We hope they both continue continue to improve. Life is returning to the fields and woods, buds are swelling, wild flowers are appearing and early garden flowers are opening when the sun shines. Birds are very active, a pair of robins were seen playing with a slender branch, picking it up, then casting it aside, as if testing to see if it was pliable enough to weave. They tried in vain to dislodge a piece of baling twine from a tree, but pieces of small string put out for them soon disappeared.
