WICKLOW AND VERNONVILLE W.I. 1 A meeting of the Wicklow-Vernonville Women's Institute was held at the home of Mrs. Ralph Leeman on Wednesday, February 24th, at 2.00 p.m., with seventeen and six children being present. The President, Mrs. Donald MacGregor, read two verses as her thought for the day, Valentine and Love. The roll call was how I make my head save my heels. A balance of $44.18 was reported. Mrs. Clifford Gillespie, convener for Citizenship and Education, reported on the Consumer's Association Bulletin. The Bulletin stated that vitamin pills should be taken under doctor's orders and that the labels on containers of such pills should bear an expiration date. Owing to summer drought and early frosts, Ontario potatoes were in short supply and of poor quality, many being hollow. Two house-cleaning hints were suggested one for making a "dustless" dust cloth, the other for removing stubborn accumulations of household wax. Mrs. Deviney, Leader of the 4-H Homemaking Club said that six girls had attended the first meeting for the current unit. Mrs. Ralph Simpson, Public Relations Officer, read a letter from Miss Ethel Chapman regarding the Olive Deviney Scholarship, reported on a branch project, that of collecting used stamps, and displayed the Canadian flag. Mrs. Nelson Usher, Curator of the Tweedsmuir History, reported on the annual meeting of the Children's Aid Society which she had attended. She also announced that the members were invited to attend the short course to be held in Colborne on March 4th. Mrs. Frank Cooney was convener for a very interesting program on the topic, Health. Mrs. Clifford Gillespie read portions of an article about the effects of moving from a familiar surroundings to new homes and schools had on children. Two humorous sketches followed, Benny decides to barber is best, and, Johnny's opinion of grandmoth- Mrs. Nelson Usher gave a reading on How to Find your Stress Level. From research undertaken by Dr. Hans Selye it was found that humans are able to stand a certain amount of stress. But one should determine what his stress level was and not force himself to go beyond that. Mrs. Cooney then introduced the guest speaker, Miss M. Cas-selman, Public Health Nurse with the Northumberland and Durham Health Unit with the office in Brighton. Miss Casselman said that Public Health Units tried to maintain the best health tot-all in the community, and tried to keep everyone in the best health possible. She outlined the various aspects of health care supervised by the unit, such as ;ing care, public health inspections, pre-natal clinics, im-iization program for infants and children, pre-school Tegison of beginners at school, dental health care, the nutrition and mental outlook of older citizens, tuberculosis clinics, and care of patients and polio vaccine clinics. A discussion period followed which proved interesting and most helpful. Mrs. Douglas Deviney, on behalf of the group thanked Miss Casselman and presented her with a gift. The program came to a close with two vocal numbers by Barbara, Joanne and Gina Deviney, A Valentine, and a motion song, Wheels on the Bus. Proceeds from a draw amounted to $2.70 and the winning ticket was held by Mrs. J. Deviney. TRINITY A.Y.P.A. Fifteen members of Trinity Anglican Church A.Y.P.A. attended Corporate Communion and breakfast last Sunday morning in their own church, after which they travelled to Grafton to attend " service at St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church at 10.30 a.m. Rev. Father Black welcomed them to the church, and spoke on changes taking place in the form of service; notably the use of the vernacular language. At the close of the service he extended an invitation to return on a future occasion. This is one of the ways in which the young people receive an insight into the worship of others and a fuller understanding of the Church as a whole. A CHALLENGE TO PARENTS Good schools everywhere are surely every parent's concern, for good education pays rich dividends to the individuals and to Canada. But we will not have better education in our schools until there is better education about our schools. During Canadian Education Week, March 7-14, it is the hope of the Ontario Federation of Home & School Associations that local associations will help to educate more citizens about education, the importance of education and the community's obligation to provide first rate schools for all of Ontario's children and youth. How far have we in Ontario come in improving our education system? In some communities students are benefitting from im. proved science and math courses. Some children have television bringing lessons not previously available in their school. But there are still children being taught from out-dated^textbooks, and possibly with antiquated teaching methods. There are areas too small to provide the variety of programs essential for children of different abilities. There are communities with no libraries or counselling service available to children and young people. We have seen the dropout rate fall, mainly because of the "Robarts" plan in secondary school education in Ontario. Some of our teachers have low certification and have never or will never try to improve their teaching or certificate. We are short many permanent classrooms; many of our children spend their days in wooden portables, which are possible health hazards and fire traps. Yes, we are a long way from equal educational opportunity for all. The quality of a child's education still depends on where he lives, in what province, in a rural or urban area. We all must share the high cost 1 and dangers of poor education, I but -we also share the dividends of good education. It ensures good citizenship and government, fosters economic growth and progress in technology, science, so-cnal welfare and health. It enriches personal living and social relationships. The Ontario Federation of Home and School Associations is working hard to secure public support for quality education, not only in the community of the local association, but through, out Ontario and Canada in cooperation with its Canadian Federation. During Education Week, the Ontario Federation of Home & School Associations yould like to salute the Minister of Education, The Honorable William G. Davis, and the department for the progress that has been made in bringing a better education system together with a higher standard of teaching to Ontario. To have progress we rr.ust have changes and our Minister of Education has made great progress during the past twelve months to catch up with the winds of change. This then, is a challenge to all parents, to educate themselves about more education, keeping in mind that the price of poor education is high. We pay for undereducation in national under-achievement and in individual frustration, fear, failure and un-happiness.
