Hilltop Herald Hello Folks, There's nothing very startling to report this week as everyone is view- ing with dismay the nearness of Christmas exams, which begin in two weeks. The Football Team would like to express their appreciation to the "Scugog Cleaners" who so willingly cleaned their muddy uniforms free of charge. The. girls' inter-mural volleyball teams are competing for top honours in the school on Monday and Wednes- day afternoons. So far, Allison Bar- ry's team is leading in points. The "8chool Boy Curling Club" opened its season on Monday after- noon. That knowledge of broom sweeping will be handy in the future, boys. On Friday, Nov, 20th, the Grade Ten students will journey to the Roy- al Winter Fair in Toronto. A report on the trip will be in next week's paper. I guess that's all the news for this week. "Happy studying, fellow stu- dents." Jeanne Williams. The Fire Siren On Monday The Fire Siren rang on Monday, but it was another false alarm. Fire- men answered the call to find that there was a short circuit which re- quired the repair men from the Bell Telephone Company to repair. [Boy Scout Christmas Cake Drive will commence on Sat., Nov. 21 | Central Ontario Women's Institutes Hold Fifty-Seventh (Mrs, Wm. Moase District Delegate) -. Several hundred registered dele- gates from Branches in Central Ont. Area converged on the (Royal York Hotel, November 4, 6 and 6th, to at- tend the Fifty-Seventh Convention of the Central Area Women's Institutes, A stimulating program, packed with interest from beginning to end made this Convention a memorable one. Highligting all sessions were discus- sions centred around the theme "The Status of Citizenship Brings Respon- sibilities", The delegates were given an official welcome to the Convention by Control- ler Jean Newman. Mrs. Farren, Ket- tleby replied. Mrs. Elton Armstrong, chairman, speaking on the theme stated "Citi- zenship is the stature of a person, who gives allegiance to the . Government in return for political rights and pri- vileges, but the obligations of citizen- ship do not end with tax paying and voting. W.I. should stand for better citizenship. She suggested we be well informed, study public affairs, ask our local member of Parliament to speak on Citizenship. Study books on other countries, and study the news from the United Nations. Have more women on the School Board. A good citizen is known by his or her attitude, towards others, and the a- bility to live with others. We should believe in fair play, take time for neghbourlness, develop a sense of be- longing in your community, Mrs. R. J. Penny, Kingston, speak- ing to the Institute members, new and old, made many suggestions such as-- welcoming new members whole-heart- edly, a hand shake is not enough. Special attention should be given new Canadians. Programs should be well planned, pamphlets are available at the head office, 20 Spadina Ave., Tor- onto, on many subjects. Films may be obtained by paying postage. Of- ficers should represent what W.IL stands for. Tact is very important. Sincerity, honesty, courtesy, consid- eration in little things, be friendly, polite and have respect for others. Many refuse to accept an office, but as members we should be willing to accept responsibilities. However it was pointed out, that the faithful member is the backbone of the organ- ization. How many times have we refused a chance to help? Missed meetings needlessly? If we criticise let it be constructively. The W.I. of- fers a tremendous challenge to its members; we must study world news, the hand book, and keep the "Home and Country" on file. We must vote "no" if we think it is necessary. Assembly singing was interspersed between sessions taking the members off the hard chairs for a few welcome moments, Miss Helen McKercher, Director of Home Economics Service, Extension Branch of the Dept. of Agriculture, speaking at the Wednesday evening session said: "We have a challenge on hand for a more educational organiza- tion. A recent survey conducted by the Federal Department of Agricul- ture had revealed that at least 90 per cent of the farm people of Ontario who produce milk, are drinking it, and giving it to their families un- pasteurized". She told delegates, half of the women who answered the questionaires were W.I. members. "This is an unheard of revelation, particularly since the Women's Insti- tute was founded over 60 yrs. ago by Adelade Hoodless of Stoney Creek, be- cause she had lost a child through use of impure milk", she reminded. Although cows to-day are tested and vaccinated for tuberculosis and bruec- celosis (cause of undulant fever) it is still a dangerous practise to drink raw milk. Miss McKercher thanked Ontario W.I, women for their assist- ance with the Farm Home Survey, which took place in every Ontario County, and District. Results are still not completed. The director reviewed events of the ninth triennial meeting of the Asso- ciated Country Women of the World, held in Edinburgh Scotland in August. She was sent by the Ontario Dept. of Agriculture as a voting delegate for the Federated Women's Institutes of Canada, "We were constantly re- minded that education is a continu- ous thing, because ignorance any- where breeds intolerance, prejudice and fear", she sald. Together, home Convention economics extension workers and homemakers of this province can make up a strong educational team, Miss McKercher commended dele- gates on success of the unique Tweeds- muir History Worshops, in which 107 of 114 Ontario Branches participated, representing most of the 89000 mem- ber group. Five new training schools wee added last year, with impressive originality by W.I. members on sum- mary days. About 20,000 women took part in home economics services in addition to 12,000, an all time high, participating in 4H Homemaking Clubs. The demonstration of the girls work was one of the highlights of the Thursday afternoon session, under the direction of Miss Wilda Gardon, Home Economist for York and Ont, Counties. The overall picture presented by the Conveners reports shows a growing awareness of the need for up-to-date facts on the many subjects that now interest the rural woman. Keen in- terest is being shown in all phases of W.I. work. Mrs. W. L. Hughes of Port Hope, Public Relations Conven- er reported donations made by Central Ontario Area W.I. Branches totalled $27,297 in 1958-69. The amount rep- ° resents gifts to various welfare works, health agencies, including can- cer, mental health and muscular dys- trophy. Other projects included lay- ettes for foreign countries, Ceylon flood relief victims, Korean refugees, and to help set up a fund for the A. C.W.W. Obituary LEVI A. KOCH Levi A.
