Adamson, Streetsville, Ont. Federated W.I. Of Ontario Challenges, which ranged from the confines of Home to the uttermost parts of the world, could not fail to give the more than five hundred dele- gates to the Fifty-ninth Convention of the Women's Institutes of Ontario a_broader vision of what they as mem- bers of the largest Woman's organiz- ation in the world, could accomplish by united effort. In opening the Convention at the Royal York, Toronto on Nov. 1st, Mrs. Maines Area President used 0'Canada, The Institute Ode, Mary Stewart Collect, The Lord's Prayer followed by a few appropiate words of welcome. Mus. W.--Clugston- of Markdale was the first speaker, Among her remarks she stressed need for study of new Hand Book, also more importance given to Resolutions. Members by by good example should win new members for -the Womans Institute. Mrs. Lynburner intreduced a guest Mrs. Seeman from new South Wales. Mrs, Seeman extended greeting from her home branch. Womans Institute first organized .in~ Austradia' was thirty-nine years ago and has now a membership of thirty thousand.. She gave as their motto, Honour to God, Loyalty to Members, Service to Othera. Mrs. Maines, President of the Cen- tral Ontario Area stated, The W. I. learn of the fusion of unselfish bnro of the fusion of unselfish ution, the aim for better education in Woman's work and preventive Med- icine. She closed with a strong plea for W.I. members to exert a strong | influence for Democracy and to be of service to others: Mrs. R. Carr, His- torical Research and:Current Events Convenor stated, "Without a Know- ledge of and a feeling for the past, we cannot build as we should for the future. Let us treasure the past and look forward to the future, not for- getting that the past is valuable as a guidepost but dangerous if used as _ a hitching post, Mrs. Cameron, Provincial Board Director; speaking. on the influence of the Womans Institute on a chang- ing world said, "We must start, build- ing for a New World in our homes, Better communities are not built by busy-bodies but by busy persons. Be- lieve in Goll Shi. yourself and your influence will be immeasurable, Mrs. Buttery, Convenor of Home Economics and Health "stated, "We accept the challenge of the day if we try to help others and in helping others we "help ourselves to acquire a higher standard of Health and well being. We each have a duty to perform whether we call it Drudgery or Pleas- ure depends on our outlook on life, our food habits can make the diff- a . erence. There has been a gratifying interest in the work of mentally re- tarded, celebral palsy and crippled children. Mrs. Elton Armstrong reported on the second National Convention held in Vancouver. The theme for the Con- vention was, "The Challenge of To- Morrow". In her report she stated, Members of Womans Institute 'must learn to think nationally, they must be thinking women, get the facts on both sides of a question and reach their own conclusion, they must hold fast to the- principles of Christian faith, and living they must be able to say and mean the greatest word in any language "I can". The course of history has been changed time and again by a handful of people with great determination. Mrs. Hughes, Convenor of Public Relations stated," "The: Public Rela- tions of our W.I, will surely prosper if we put into active practise our aims and remember our Motto, "For Home and Country", Great power is in our hands, woman can build the kind of world they want, and woman have the 'power of creating public opinion. The Guest Speaker at the Banquet was Rev. W. A. Young, Chaplain at Guelph Agricultural College. His add- , ress was inspiring as always. He pointed out that living is more than just making a living, it is an art that requires practise, but in the modern world we are so busy keeping up with the Jones, we have no time for the better things in life. Security is the | by-word of to-day but it is an illusion, i The only real security is that found in the 23rd Psalm. Faith is the anti- dote for fear. Mrs. Lynburner, F.W.1.O. President in her address stated that each mem- ber of the Womans Institute is part of a group of six and a half million Fworking in 21 countries. As part of such a vast group we must broaden our horizons and develop an Inter- national Viewpoint. Our organization through its affiliations around the world can make a great contribution, "but it takes courage and determination to accomplish great things. These are days when we need 'strength and 200dWilloe SEAT, Mr. Earl Cox, Colntry Calendar C.B.C-T.Y. urged the delegates to take as one of their projects the beautifying of their homes, towns and | ont side by planting suitable flowers and shrubs, thus adding great- ly to the beauty of our country. The Theme for the Convention was. Build to-day strong and'sure with a firm and ample base, then ascending and secure shall to-morrow find its place, : ' Each session was interspersed with Assembly singing, solos, monologues and choir selections, so the delegates i and educational.

But he won it for someone else. SEI ls Mr. Ormiston, a breeder of Holstein cattle, and former fieldman for the Holstein-Friesian Association of Can- ada, gives all the credit for what he knows about Holstein cattle to the late R. M. Holtby, the first fieldman for the association. When Mr. Holtby died in 1944, Roy Ormiston took over his job and worked for the association until 1954, when he started farming on his own with a kerd of Holsteins. During his lifetime Mr. Holtby had donated a trophy at the Royal for the two best animals bred by one man. Roy Ormiston won this trophy with Balsam Brae Pluto Soverign, 11 yrs. old, and her daughter, Royal Delight, the second-best 4-year-old milking fe- male in the show. The older cow won top prize for for aged dry cows and Delight com- bined with another daughter, Roybrook Model Lady, the fist prize dry 3-year old, to win the progeny of dam award. The Holtby Trophy, however, act- ually went to R. B. Brown, of Paris, who had bred the winning cows. But the real winner was Roy Orm- iston, and a proud man he was at the end of the day. Tractor Plunges Pickering, Nov, 9th--Charlés Fiss, 61, of Balsam, Pickering Township, was killed today when his tractor roll- ed down a 16-foot embankment on his farm. » He had been plowing a field and was attempting to turn the tractor when it plunged over the embankment. Police had to get a mobile crane fram Oshawa to free his body. The accident was discovered by a neighbor, Donald Jamieson, 27, who investigated after seeing the plow but no tractor standing in the field as he drove by. Mr. Fiss. leaves his wife; a son, Fred, and two daughters, Mrs, Albert Third of Agincourt, and Mrs. William Wilson of Gormley. Tues. Nov. 21 Hilltop Herald Hello Readers!
