A. Forrester, Publisher Thursday, December 8, 1938 WOMEN'S INSTITUTE (Oontiued from page one) leisure time was spent that way. Handicraft does not pay if" looked on as a money making proposition, neither does honesty pay at times, but both pay well in contentment. We will have more leisure but if it means idleness, civilization is on the down grade, but if used constructively it will mean civifiziation is on the up grade. Handicraft creates content- ment in the home, the curtains, bed- spreads, rugs, ate., show the char- acter of a home. We don’t like hats or clothes to be alike. Our disposi- tion for originality should go Ibwer than our hate. 'Standardization has gone too far, newspapers do our thinking for us, Through education we are inclined to lose our original- ity whirl; should not be, as our ability to create and recreate is our greatest asset. The needs of a family is al- ways a sound proposition, and he in- vites co-operation with rural life, not for money making alone but for the greatest good to all. Mrs. McClure gave the report on historical1 research, and suggested that family histories should be re- corded with W. 1. collections. Call on old people and 'keep a diary of their stories. Keep records’ of school : sections, villages, mills, churches, events of pioneer days, histories .of .tarn:-, an'&r shots, etc. 1 Til story' of medicine, potash and early industries. Each Branch should have a scrap book for recovering in ter els ting events. Mise MoDermand gave a very , short talk in which s-he told us that she did not "expect to address us again as superintendent of Women’s Institutes, We guëissêd that she ex- pects to be married and that guess was right, as later speakers verified it and a . collection was, taken from the assembly «mounting to over $2-7.;00, with which a Georgian pit- cher was bought to complete à cof- fee 'Set, Miss Deneke, County Secretary of Oxfordshire . Women’s Institute, England, brought w greetings from England, which arc ‘"Thank You,” Since September 17 th shé has been visiting Institutes across Canada .and getting ideas to take home. In Sep- tecibor there were in England 5,001 Branch Institutes, each one sends a delegate and each o-ne sends a reso- lution, They charge ' for tea and -cake: (our "cakes are better than in England). At a co-operative tea each member 'brings a couple of ,small cakes. They do the business first; such as, study the lives of peo: pie-in other lands; have dramatic festivals; handicraft exhibitions.; cooking exhibitions ; old time exhibi- tions. They have a museum for in- teresting old articles. The: answer to standardized.! education is not less education but- more. We want to cultivate a constructive opinion on matters of importance, for instance, thte government was building some cottages and some of the Institute members wondered how they had planned them. Someone suggested that they find out, They wrote, got the plan's and decided that they could be improved on, Sq they sent their suggestion to the authorities who saw the wisdom of the sugges- tion and made the change. Women should be a steading influence, we want a standard of goodwill and friendly co-operation to make de- mocracy what it should be. THURSDAY AFTERNOON In the report on Home Economics given by Miss Marjorie Prankish, of Lakefield, she says that home econo- mics is a social science. Home economies include, study of clothes for the family, the textile, color and de- sign, fashion trend, provides a suit- able wardrobe. Health education re- cognizes . that prevention is better thlan cure. Home crafts make the home more attractive. 'Family re- lationships means to allot the work justly, share the fun, have the youth own some stock or money, talk over the difficulties as well a.s achieve- ments, encourage children to bring their friends home and teach them hobbies or handicraft, They had demonstrations of table setting for different occasions, demonstration on a hand loom, correct serving without a maid, preparing chicken, making fly paper, home bandaging, xrse of cheese, making tea biscuits and muf- fins, boning of fish, cuts of meat and how to cook them, cotton accessories for a bedroom, braided mgs, veran- dah furniture made from- boxes and papers on my ideal kitchen, the best uses of what we have, a home hobby, buying Bo advantage, buytmanship, use of honey, to keep clothes neat and clean, mending. Discussion on the usés of soy beans and home made clothes are more practical than ready made clothes. " Miss Olive Oruickshanks, of Mac- donald Hall, Guelph, gave us a very interesting talk on the origin of home economics, tellings us that the general, trend in education is to- wards a functional aspect of living. Increasing emphasis is put on the study of pupil’s needs, interests’ and problems. The flexibility of the new curriculum tends toward a new con- ception. Teachers should visit the homes of the pupils, know the com- munity, the home life and types of homes the pupils come from. Miss McDer maid has been sup- crimondent of Women’s Institutes for four years. In another short talk she told us that adult education should be made available for all. We aim to develop leadership, make bet- ter communities, bolt or homes. Wte took forward to a bigger .and better programme, greater appreciation and better evaluation. The successful homemaker has the happiest family, she 1s- the director of the .activities of the home. (Study clubs should be organized under -a trained psycholo- gist to study human behaviourâ€"why children d() things, why the fourteen to sixteen year old quarrel, why boys tease, why grtodma .is, not always tolerant; of the growing girl, etc. A program is a plan of work -we con- sciously arrive at, what we expect and need to do broken into smaller goals. Let US know where we want to go and décidé by what means we will go. Then, did we reach our ob- jective? (She -spoke of the new magazine which may take the place -of our “Home and Country” of the conference to " be held in England in 1939. A new course of study : teaches ca tering to tourists and an- other the marketing of home: cooking. We are trying to- establish a satis- factory kind of living. There are -changea to he made, both wisely and well. Mr. Mi'Derma id is leaving On- tario. Dr. B'rodie outlined -thS advanced course in. home économies. Education is being tested; training for jobs that dp not exist does not satisfy, atten- dance at school is no guarantee of economic betterment, some have gone far without it. Training in household science should be a bet- terment. S'clibols do not -give a higher tone of culture than the home provides, that 10 to 20 per cent, of 'learning only is ma lined. No girl is -equipped to marry till she can stretch- $1.00 a long way intelligently. Some of the courses in the curricu- lum are, family relationships, per- sonality development, home manage- ment -and économies, budgeting, what I can afford on certain given salary levels, care of silver, materials, equipment and furniture, consumer's education, child care and training, home care of the sick, interior decor- ation, textiles and sewing, food and nutrition.

B0WMANVILLE St. Joseph’s Church bazaar held at one of the member’s bornes, Church street, was very successful with proceeds between 40 and 50 dollars. I8t. John’s Anglican Club for men are intending to bold a social even- ing on December 27th. This is one of the most interesting clubs in town and is a great help to the young people in social work. Mr. D, R. Morrison, of the labora- tory department, Goodyear Plant, and Mr. Win. Thick son, of the hose department, are in Akron this week on business in connection with the Goodyear plant in that city. Mr. A. Knox, Orono, was a visitor in town on Sunday last and took part with St. Paul’s Sunday 'School Or- chestra, under the direction of Mr. Max Tm rk. He also called on some of his old friends in town. Just the same you can’t keep him out of the. music circle. Always pleased to see him. We are looking forward to the time when the new Symphony Or- chestra at the training school will be giving their first entertainment in this line of music. Mr. Francis 'Sutton is the guiding hand in this work and no doubt of his experience in this line will leave any doubt as to his ability to’ produce results. Well1, we have another meat mar- ket in town and with "the well-known Oawker firm, one of the outstanding meat purveyors in the district, also the fine Dudley shop, with the At- lantic and Pacific firm, we are well provided with this line of business- Jack’s Meat Market is one door east of the Dominion Store, King street, At the Monday evening rehearsal of the Legion Band we noticed a number from Oghaiwa and also the reliables from Orono, and our old friend HaroM Allen from Newcas- tle, but not. taking part. Some section of the band need filling out, espe- cially the alto section, a decidedly im- portant part. The program rehearsed was for the concert on Sunday even- ing at the theatre. Mr. Frank Tuerk one- of the Clarinet section is still in the general hospital, Toronto, pro- gressing but slowly towards recovery -and his many friendé will be glad to see him again in his accustomed place in the musical ranks. Is it not rather peculiar when a millionaire or some important citi- zen passes out, the papers take up the old refrain, that this man’s life .’-should be an incentive to our youth to try to do likewise. They say nothing about the following the man who .puts in some 50 or 60 years in the employ of some manufacturing -concern of a commercial house as many do, -and who adds to the wel- fare of the community as much as any of the so-called magnates of the land. Let the youth of the land peek out his own way. Just give him a chance to become a good citi- zen and he will come through all right. To become a millionaire is not the chief end of man. The entertainment given by the Cheerio people.under the direction of Mrs. Eleanor Dunm, and under the auspices 0f the Canadian Legion, was a very pleasing one.
