Wednesday afternoon; February II,. Bruce Heath, Acting Local Director, talked about the "rather dubious conclusions reached" wheel- affected the Children's Aid In the province following the Urwick- Currie and Mullen's Reports. "If we acknowledge a need to re-examine our obligations to the taxpayer," Mr. Heath said, "W- ilke manner, we shall have to re.- examine our duties to the children in care and families we serve, and the priorities needed to en- hance our services and redeem ojr failures." "And in the long run whether we keep to a policy of practical- ity and even minimum feasibility or not, . it is going to cost money," he continued. "To-- those who might cling to a conception of absolute local autonomy, some of this may sound like heresy or the jitters of a new local director. I can assure you it is neither.'" "I would suggest Children's Aid Societies have alternately been at their worst and their most sterile when they neglected their trusts to care and criticize," Mr. Heath pointed out, "and lost touch with both, their, clients and eupporters. One might suggest further that they would be at their next worst if overtly intimidated or directed by agencies or authorities ex- ternal tp themselves.

Board members agreed that the principal of the school Involved should be notified of the accident and should make the report to the school board, preferably with the names of all the students on the bus at the time of the accident. Some board members thought this was imposing undue paperwork on the principals. "Surely there would not be sufficient bus accidents involving` any one school to make these reports a burdensome task for the principals," stated Mrs.Wallace. By: John D.

'The board of women will be gradually phased out in a year's time, but she assured the group that they will get exactly the same help as in the past. The U.C.W. will not be done away with, but the church with organization as never before, must be more flexible in its programs. More women are working and more taking courses and some haven't the time to give their time for a whole year. Give them what they want and encourage them to attend when they can. The London Conference will also be undergoing ae change in July 1911, said the speaker. The name will probably be changed. We still have Presbyterials, U.C.W. Conferences but they will differ because we are a standing committee as the courts of the church. One of the downfalls pointed out is that the church is' moving towards regionalism * "But change is a challenge to greatness and awakens the sense of responsibility". In the future, advance is beyond realism. Ad- vance depends on you and me. Christian leadership depends on what you and I have to give." The Speaker stressed what was believed in the past may not be the same in the future. It is a Christian responsibility to study and read also to look at the growing population and the field of union. "Say what you want and don't want whet you like and don't like". We are chosen people to come together and work together. • Mrs. Bewley reported that Mrs. C.
