(from time to time a pain of (continued from front page) vice and we hope to have a full copy of this report at a later date. Wednesday evening we enjoyed a' play produced by the Canadian Mental Health Assn, on the training of child: ren. This playlet was well done and we were told that it could be put on in any centre within 100 miles of Tor- onto and when this was done, trained personal would conduct a discussion about the problem as shown in the play. A Get- acquainted Party under the leadership of Mr, Harold Harton was lots of fun on Wednesday: evening; Miss Ethel Chapman, who is known to" many through the magazine Home & Country talked to.us about "What will you leave your children?" and gave us a very thoughtful and help- ful talk on child training. She point- ed to the four corner posts of Love, Worship, Play and Work as a founda- tion for building character, She stressed the necessity of letting the child do things for him or hérself. Don't consider it as waste of your time and material as long as the child is trying to learn. Also Miss Chap- man felt they should be encouraged to decide things for themselves. Thursday morning we were enter- tained and instructed by demonstra. tions from the Junior Institute, many of you saw and enjoyed them. There are so many interesting points I would like to tell you about but we have to skip them in order to have time to talk about the more important items s0 we have just left out all the formalities--the introductions of the speakers and appointments of com- mittees, community singing, etc.-- and the reports we hope you will get in full at some later meeting. In developing the theme of the con- vention Mrs. MacPhatter asked "what is the best way to help the child-- what does he want to do? what' does he need to develop for the job he wants?" and she spoke of the Dig- nity of Work--the Benefits of Play-- the Beauty of Worship-- the neces- sity of Rest. Mrs, MacPhatter suggested that the 7021 dollars raised for Korean Widows Self Help project $8000 would buy 20 sewing machines, 2 hand looms, 8000 yds. of goods, 200 bs, yarns, with $4000 which would build a good ser- vice centre to house thé machines, ete. and where instruction could be given. She stessed that we let our Board member know how we felt about this. She also suggested that Ontario take on as a special project thes equipping of 4 centres in Ceylon under U.N.E. S.C.0. at a cost of $5,240 and she felt we should find some means of raising about 2,000 to pay expenses of the W.L delegate to UNESCO in 1956, she suggested 10 cents & member per year for 2 years. ; The luncheon meeting at Thursday noon was well attended and many of you heard and enjoyed the talk by Rev. Ray MaCleary, of Woodgreen Community Centre. You who were there will remember that he said "Liv- ing with The Neighbours" is the whole business of life and he went on to) show us how the life' was enriched by the Neighbours -- we gained nothing by building a spite fence--but by learn- ing to live with others we added to our own character and satisfaction. Friday morning we were entertain- ed with beautiful colored pictures of Jamaica which we could have enjoyed for nruch longer if we had had the time. Another thing which could have been given much more time was the panel 'discussion on the theme of the convention. Dr. Norman Hye of Guelph conducted: the discussion with a panel of two housewives, a Junior Institute Worker and an Agriculture Representative. The discussion was along this line--What development do we want to see in the child? and the answers suggested were a sense of responsibility, mental and social growth, the ability to make" good on his mistakes, to learn to know him- self and his abilities. How do . we accomplish this development?-- Through the church, Sunday School and homes. The child should be prais- ed for worthy effort, should be en- couraged t6 take a part dn the com- munity as in Cubs, Guides, 4H Clubs; ete. It was felt that parents shotild try to be up-to-date in their thinking; and also try to see the problems from the child's viewpoint. This discussion was called to an end because of the time although no consideration had been' given to schools and teachers, to shows, or television, etc. # It could have gone on and on. vention ahd hope that we have been REPORT FROM W.
