Holiday Week at the Ontario Agricultural College in Guelph must make their res- In the opening speech. Mrs. James Haggerty, President of the Federated Women’s Institute of Ontario said, “One of the main deterrents to world peace is in- security and insecurity creates fear and fear leads to danger. In this land of ours safety means something different to us than in many other lands Our safety is threatened by hazards which, in many cases could be prevent- ed quite easily, if reasonable care were taken. These are challen- ges for W.I. members to accept and try to plan a program to deal with these problems. She said. "W.I. members al- ways rise to the occasion as far as possible to meet these chal- lenges and show that women‘s hearts and hands go out in a ma- terial way to children of any land. There were 241 layettes for Arab refugee babies and 243 sweaters for Korean children. The appeal for Flood Relief in Ceylon was well responded to which over 4,000 contributed." The theme of the conference was "The Challenge of Tomor- row”. under the headings ‘World Peace and World Safety Are Everyone's Responsibilty,’ and 'The Shape of Things to come in the World of Tomorrow will be determined on the frontiers of knowledge in the world today.’ In many countries the situa- tion is different and the people have not known the feeling of safety and security. Many of their lives have been constantly threatened by war and they have been driven from their homes and families and always there is constant fear facing them. These are some tiers of knowledge plore." The new national office in Ot- tawa is a step forward and Mrs. Haggerty asked all members who could to visit it. Dr. J. D. MacLachlan, Presi- dent of the Ontario Agricultural College, welcomed the delegates and spoke of “The Challenge of Education”. He said. “the great- est Change in Agriculture and re- search ls now being carried on at the college. and never before has there been the pressure for re- search in agriculture.” “I wish to thatk the members of this Branch for making it pos- sible for me to attend the confer- ence. There were six who drove to Guelph in Mrs. J. Snider’s car from Victoria Square. Mrs. San- derson, Richmond Hill; Mrs. Thompson, Thornhiii; Mrs. Kerr. Veilore; Miss McCallum, Wood- bridge and myself. We register- ed and were given rooms in Mac- Donald Hall, but as there were 650 women in attendance, some had to be bilietted in homes. We were taken on a tour of the grounds and part of the farm by bus that afternoon. We had good meals in a friendly atmosphere. The evening session was enter- tainment supplied by the Water- loo Jr. Farmers’ Quartette and a play by Woolrich Juniors entit- led “Storm in a Loving Cup” in 1910 setting and both were ex- cellent. , Dr. Margaret McCready, Prin- cipal of MacDonald Institute also welcomed the delegates and said there is a great need for Home Economists. Miss Helen McKercher, direc- tor of Home Economics Services said, “We can draw courage and ideas from each other and this has been proven in the work of those taking part this year in the Home Extension Service prog- ram.

Mrs. James Haggerty, President of the Federated Wo- men's Institute of Ontario this week over the local radio stat- ion when Mrs. Haggerty will dis- cuss the highlights of the York County Pioneer and Historical Society Picnic to be held in Sharon next Saturday. In con- vening this program, Mrs. Ag- new is succeeding Mrs. Gordon Maynard, Secretary~Treasurer F.W.I.O., who has been arrang- ing the weekly programs since last fall. To Purchase House There is a project under way by which the York County Woâ€" men’s Institutes plan to purchase a frame house as a next step for- ward in the preservation of our history. It was built by one of the master builders of Sharon Temple and it is planned to be used in conjunction with the log cabin. Entertaining Choir Thursday afternoon we were divided into groups for discus- sions on problems and projects of Women's Institute work. On Thursday evening, the Hon. W. A. Goodfellow, Minister of Agriculture brought greetings from the Province and comment- ing on the theme said, “things good enough today will not be good enough tomorrow, and the challenge is to keep up with what is good today. Agriculture in the future will have no place for the inefficient farmer.” He said a province-wide survey is going to be carried out in the near fu- ture for a year to find out the cause of accidents on the farms and in the farm homes. The “Evolution of TV and Ra- dio" was given by Mrs. George Wilson, Federated Women’s In- stitutes of Canada public rela- tions convenor. Since 1954, a survey has been taken each year in Ontario, Mrs. Wilson stated. Six thousand members reported Howdy Doody Time. Lassie and Disneyland were those receiving the highest rating. Junior Mag- azine is popular with teen agers. Almost 100 per cent asked for less crime and violence programs and more requested animal and nature stories. by the man who owns the land. There will be a rapid rise in population by $975. It may be expected that industry will con- tinue to move into rural or sub- urban areas and will draw an in- creasing number of farm people into its employ. It looks as though farms will incline to in- crease in size and decrease in numbers. We must have well ed- ucated and highly trained groups of people on our farms." Mrs. Goodfellow was a dele- gate at_the confegenpe. An address on Safety was giv- en by Mr. H. E. Belman, Agri- cultural Engineering Specialist. Mrs. Hugh Summers. Vice President of- the Associated Countrywomen of the World, gave an interesting travellogue on ‘the World Conference held last year in Ceylon. The members of Goshen W.I. entertained the delegates with several musical numbers which were very much appreciated. The highlight of Friday morn- ing was the address by Mrs. Ruth Rand, King‘s County, Nova Scotia, who is the National Pres- ident of the Federated Institutes of Canada. Mrs. Rand brought news of honors to Mrs. Nancy Adams, Past President of F.W.I. C. On May 9 the Honorary De- gree of Doctor of Law was con- ferred on Mrs. Adams by the University of Saskatchewan and she also became the first woman to deliver the Convocation Ad- dress at the University. Tele- gram congratulations were . sent from the conference to Mrs. Ad- ams. Mrs. Rand said that we need a permanent national address and advised that the F.W.I.C. is now financially able to establish the office. Mr. Percy Usher has invited the Rev. Mr. Donald and his family with the Edgeley United Church Choir to spend a social evening with them in their home after choir practice. Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Stuart and Mrs. Iohn Stuart spent Tues- day afternoon of last week with Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Peelar in Orillia. On Saturday evening. the Stuarts visited with Mr. and Mrs. Robert Sherwood in Toronto. we have to do is to save the best in the old and blend it into the best in the new, and in no place is this more important than in the home.” She reported a grati- fying number taking part in training schools, short courses and 4-H Clubs. She said, “We must encourage group thinking and must not re_sl_st_ change." Mr. E. I. Longhry, director of Extension Liaison. 0.A.C., com- pared the farm of 50 or 75 years ago to farms of today. Fifty years ago farm families were self-suf- ficient while today a similar fam- ily may have one or two enter- prises and the rest of their needs must be purchased. Population growth and proper use of land cannot be divorced. Those in ur- ban centres cannot continue to prosper unless farmers become financially solvent. Their surviv- al depends on agricultural re- search, extensive training and acceptance of _research teaching At the close of this session, we were favored with two solos by Mrs. McKercher, a sister-in-law and graduate of MacDonald In- stitute. Mr. and Mrs. Kidd and Padre Young were always on hand with music, sing songs and jokes. __ _ .. . ,n,,_4‘4__ he in the church hall.

June 14, 1958, when Marion Ruth Lockhart. daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Lock- hart, and Lorne Henry Alexand- er Bell, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Bell were united in marriage. The church was tastefully decorâ€" ated with pink and white carna- tions and mums. The double ring ceremony was performed by Rev. Martin Jenkinson.
