"The UM Directors have
followed this policy of visiting
with directors and staff at retail
co-operatives in Ontario during
regular board meeting dates for
several years, "- noted R. S. Mc-

Dublin, Ontario. "The purpose
'of the visits are to keep them in t
touch with the growing program
of services by co-operatives in •
Ontario and to review with elec-
ted people the challenges facing
co-operators in serving members'
needs," he said.
U CO's volume for the past
year will be well over one hun-
dred million in a wide range of
products and services, to both '
farm and home consumers, he
said. The organization has been
an established service for 55 year
essentially in feeds, crop prod-
ucts and farm supplies, and pe-
troleum, and more recently in a
widening line of consumer goods,

Perth-Huron Regional School o(
Nursing at Stratford will take
place Wednesday afternoon at

In June of 1965, Dr. Matthew
Dymond; then Minister of Health
for Ontario, announced that a
target had been set of 5, KO grad-
uating nurses each year, and to
this end provision for nurse edu-
cation in SchoOls of Nursing would
be increased. This new Olio)/ re-
fleCted the growing concern at
the continuing shortage of grad-
uate nursing staff,, and was the,
Department's attempt to deal
with the basic problem. ,
From this emanated the origin-
al planning for., and the gradual
growth of, the Perth-Huron Reg-
ional School of Nursing - a com-
posite representation of the hos- •
pitals in the Counties of Perth
and Huron, to be situated adjacent
to the Stratford General Hospital.
The School is administered •
y,`„,a, Board of twenty Trustees, '- •
representing the seven hbspitals
involved, with a yearly enroll=
ment of 90 students. It offers a
two-year-plus one programme, \
encompassing the seven hospitals,
and community health agencies
throughout the two Counties, and
its purpose is to prepare nurses
for beginning practice in-Nursing.
The thitd year is an internship
year, during which, the students
will rotate through 'a selection of
the participating hospitals. That
year, the students receive pay
from the hospital and are expect-
ed to find 'their own living acc-
two days per week at the Cones-
toga 'College of Applied'Arts and
Technology for the study of Eng-
lish Literature, Biology,. Psychol-
ogy and 'Sociology.
In its beginning year, the Fa-
culty of the School consists of the
Principal, Miss M. F. Philpott, and
five Nursing Instructors, Mrs.Joyce
Pope, Miss Nelda Yantzie, Mr.
Joseph Taylor,
ern air-conditioned library, lab-
oratory classrooms, seminar
rooms, single accommorlation

ium, gymnasium and heated
