Farming In Good Hands According to Phil Flagler, Farm Broadcaster, C.J.B.Q., Belleville, the future of Canadian Farms is in good hands if they are run by farmers with the calibre of those farmers he has met. Mr. Flagler also believes that the family^farm will still be one of the most efficient types of farms in the future, although they may undergo some changes. This is what Grafton Farmers Co-operative heard at their annual banquet and meeting last Thursday evening. Over 100 persons attended the banquet. Rev. P. M. Knoght gave thanks. The group were welcomed by President T. Jeninga. The Manager's Report given by Earle Helps showed a considerable increase in total sales. Net earning for the 1960 year nearly doubled those of 1959. The election of Directors was conducted by Frank Tuman, Area Supervisor. The Directors appointed for a three year term were T. Jeninga, Harold Prentice and Sam Davidson. Other board members are Tom Sirett, Bruce Eagleson, Ed. Oulehan, Don Hare, Bruce Usher and Doug Deviney. In a report from Grafton District Credit Union, Doug Johnston told the gathering if the Cooperative and Credit Union worked more closely together it would probably benefit both groups. Among the head table gdests were Mr. and Mrs. F. Tuman, Mr. Phil Flagler, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Helps, Mr. and Mrs. T. Jeninga, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Prentice and Mr. Herb Watson. Door prizes were won by Mrs. M. Rutherford, Mrs. D. Calnan, Mr. Leslie Rice and Mrs. M. The banquet was catered to by Grafton Women's Institute under the convenership of Mrs. Arthur Riley. omy. They stated that n scholarships and bursaries should be available for gifted children; in fact some went on to say that children's allowance should be continued until the child reaches the age of 18, if he or she is still in school. Some Forums felt students from rural areas and small towns are not having the same opportunities as those in the larger centres where universities are because of the high cost of living expenses, while, those nearer the colleges could commute back and forth each day. The Forums suggested that teachers should be encouraged to give special attention to the average student rather than the bright student, who is bound to make the grade anyway. They also observed that not all young people are suited for university and Cobourg Road stressed the importance of guidance councelling, even in grades 7 and 8, in order to help students realize their potentialities. More agricultural and technical schools should be available to rural children who are more suited to a trade than a profession, was another suggestion made by Trent Valley and Front Road East Forums. Many of the Forums pointed out that farmers with a college education were often able to supply the kind of leadership that is needed in the farm organizations.
