Hayes was on the plat. form leading a discussion of means of shortening the W.I. meeting. We .missed the early part of the discus- sion but two or three points mention. ed were a clock on the presidents table where all could see it or a bell to limit the conveners report to 2 min. and that the secretary hand all correspon- dence to the proper convener, who wolild condence the idea of the letters and suggest what should be done a- bout it at the same time. Also atten- tion was given to/ means of making the W.I, meetings 'more popular and in order to increase membership it was suggested that we advertise our meetings better; that we examine the reasons people join these other or- ganizations and sce what we can do to provide siniilar or better attrac- tions, One woman suggested that al- ternate meetings be held in the even- ing in order to attract mothers of young children who are not able to be out in the afternoon. was also asked if the competition such _as the Tweedsmuir competitions spon- sored by Salada Tea were considered desirable. Some thought yes and some considered exhibits rather than compe- titions to be better. Some suggested that the commercial aspect of having prizeg donated by such firms as being the undesirable feature, Some felt that competitions discouraged the more timid who thought it useless to try when so and so was sure to win. We received reports from .time to time during this convention from the conveners of various departments and we considered these to be so helpful that we are handing a copy to our own conveners so that they can he studied and read at a later meeting. Mrs. Heron, Brooklin, gave her report in which she mentioned that more than 15,000 women had taken exten- sion courses... Her books show a bal- ance of $606. at the end of 1953. We might mention at this time we had several very fine singers during the various sessions of the convention whose selections were much enjoyed, and also at this point I thought our Institute might send a card of con- gratulations to the newly elected of- ficers in our district. The theme of this convention "De- veloping to-day's youth for To-morrow World" was carried through very well and every speaker did preparé his or her address with this in mind, Judge Norman K. Bennett of the Family Relations Court gave us a most interesting talk on his phase of the developing of our youth. He divided his address into 2 parts telling first something of the begin- ning of the court, when in 1912 the authorities in Toronto began to feel that the delinquents there needed-some special attention and a commission was set up to study the problem. Fi- nally establishing the juvenile court in-1914-this worked very well and in 1929 it was enlarged to become the Family Court with Judge Mott at its head. This court is a closed Court and Judge Bennett said the press had cooperated splendidly in this respect never using any names ofsthe individ- uals, The judge showed that thé court functioned largely in an advis- ory capacity talking problems over as a family when possible and he said they were extremely grateful to the social organizations who helped so niuch iin the probation department: Judge Bennett said that because of this help of 3422 cases of neglected or] maladjusted children only 827 made appearance in court, and he felt the physciatry clinc has done and will do nore for reclaiming the individual than any other factor. Judge Bennet felt the cause for much of our delin- quency was due to the world wars and the depression of 1929 and said that in 9 out 10 cases trouble started with too much alcohol or too little money. He felt both husband and wife should know how much money was coming in the home in order to co- operate in {its handling. Wife can't run an efficient home if she doesn't know how much she can spend. He had nothing good, té say about comic hooks, said most parents did not know what these books taught their child. He suggested that parents talk things over with their children even though their problems do seem to be. very trivial problems' to the adult. Keep your children close friends Judge Ben- nett said, .

Convention Dealers Attend Windsor Conventio Windsor, Ont,, Nov. 4 -- Chrysler Corporation of Canada, Limited this week presented its complete line of the 'much-anticipated 1955 models at a special preview showing and dealers' convention held here. Among those attending were Wm. Beare and Storey Beare of Beare Mo- tors. Beare Motors were honored at the Convention for being dealers for Chrysler 'Corp. for twenty-two years. Close to a thousand Chrysler of Canada dealers from every part of Canada were on hand to-have a cloge- up look at the new Plymouths, Dodges, DeSotos and Chryslers, The cars wero elaborately displayed in a section of the 'newly-enlarged passenger car plant, the setting amid spotlights, rich drapes and carpeting accenting the sleek styling and brilliant colours of the vehicles, At their meeting here the dealers learned that V-8 engines will be avail- able for the first time in all five of the company's lines this year. With the new engines and completely re- styled bodies will go a considerably enlarged range of colours and interior fabrica, - Addressing the initial business ses- slon, E. C. Row, president and general manager emphatically declared that it was the corporation's immediate objective to capture a greater ghare of the Canadian automobile market. Chrysler of Canada has been handi- capped, he said, by lack of production facilities since the end of the war. Its daily production capacity of 256 pas- senger cars had proved inadequate for the company to maintain its proper position in- relation to competition. Expenditure of more than 41 million dollars over the past two years in new plant facilities will result next year in" tremendously increased productive capacity, he said. The Chrysler president and general manager was highly' optimistic con- cerning the future of the Canadiah cconomy. A comprehensive economic -survey of Canada covering the period |. 1951-1971 had been undertaken three years ago, he said, and for these three years the forcast had proved to be very. conservative, "I can tell you that the-outlook for Canada's. future prosperity is excel- lent, both on a short--and a long-term basis," Mr. Row asserted, Tremendous interest is being shown in the comany's new models this year. "Never has a new line -of cars been Jooked for so eagerly, and anticipated and speculated on so much, as Chrys- ler Corporation's 1955 models" said a company official. : "During their_stay in Windsor the dealer group also attended meetings with corporation officials, toured the vast manufacturing plants of the com- pany and concluded their sessions with a dinner party and floor show: Public presentation of the 19565 cars is scheduled for dealers' showrooms across Canada in a few weeks' time.

Mrs. Ivon Spencer, 47, daughter of Mrs. Payne, Miss Annie Spencer, 89, and Myrna Spencer, 6, were forced to flee from the-house. Firemen from Port Perry and Ux- bridge answered the call. Dense smoke coming from the fire, which started 'in an upstairs closet from undeter- mined origin, hampered the fire-fight- ers considerably, but the flames were soon brought under control. Neigh- bors had remaved most of the furni- ture from the house before firemen arrived, Fire officials said defective wiring in the six-room, insul-brick home could have caused the blaze.
