On Thursday, left Manchester February 10th, we with our President and Vice-President, Mr. Fred Christie and Mr. Anson Gerrow. We artived at the King Edward Hotel where the convention was in progress," The re- gistration was in charge of Mrs. Ira Lowe, Ida, and Mrs. W. A. Hume, of Campbellford. We were not in time to hear the P'resident's address by Mrs. Alex, Me- Kinney Jr., Brampton. Mrs." Mar- garet Myer, of the Woman's Institute Branch, explained with slides the scores and standards of baking for the Fair. She said there should be no coating or egg or milk on crust for exhibition, also there should be no spice in apple pie.. Miss Charlotte McCullough, George- town, announced the. exhibit of handi- craft which consisted of weaving, shell work, leather articles, woodwork, ete. We adjourned for lunch. The afternoon started with a sing- song followed by a talk by Miss Mary Clark, Dept. of Education, on "We Educate Youth," In this, the middle of the 20th century, we interpret the term education, as education for living. We expect education to help in the development of the child as an in- dividual, as a family member, and as p citizen. This is a large order re- quiring the combined efforts of par- ents, teachers, churches, clubs--all in- terested organizations. Each has a part to play and we are here today to consider how we may work together in the interests of youth--you, the re- presentatives of the Wonien's Division 'of the Agricultural Societies, and I, speaking for Home Economics in the schools, - In conclusion the co-operation of the Home Economics departments of the schools with the agricultural so- PI oe in planning a program for the | fall fair can be jutually beneficial. More important still, it may he a valu- able factor in the ellueation of youth, if it is well planned and carried out. It- will help the agricultural society to achieve its objective of creating an interest in and raising the standards of rural life. It will bring visitors to the fair, Mrs. Gordon Cutler, Welland gave 0 talk on "How to judge quilts." It was oxplpined 'an appliqued quilt should have no top 'sewing. The ro- mance of the lowly quilt, from pioneer days, when skins of animals were used, to the highly developed quilt- imaking of today, which forms an im- i portant part of every fall fair--even the Canadian National Exhibition, stated' Mrs. Cutler, | Mrs, J. E. Houck, Brampton, one of four women on the Royal Commission on Education, which started four years ago, stated, "There are two schools of thought on the purpose of education, {one that it is a preparation for learn- jing to live and the other that jt is to {teach children how to earn a living. | Speaking of needed reforms in On- trio's school system, Mrs, Houck re- marked that there has not been a pub- _ lic school geography text book written since -1927, and never a high school geography text book. The result is that the teacher had more or less to make his own course. | Mrs, A, E, Cox, Brampton, gave a | demonstration on arranging flowers for fairs. { The Hon. L. B. Pearson, Secretary of State for External Affairs, Ottawa, was the guest speaker at the banquet { Thursday evening at which there were over 800 present, Friday morning, J. A. Garner, Director of Extension, De- partment of Agriculture, Toronto, gave a talk on the development of night !schools for rural people. This was followed by the election of officers for | the coming year. Mrs. P, Diamond Mrs, L. Honey. + PIANO TUNING V. P.
