HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1952-03-27, Page 4Teachers Hear Talk By G. H. Jefferson On English Queens. The regular March meeting of the Clinton Unit of the Ontario Women Teachers' Federation was held on Thursday, March 20, at 8 p.m. with Miss E, Jamieson, the president, presiding. The business meeting included a decision not to hold an April . meeting as it would interfere with Easter holidayS. Speaker for the evening was ,G, H. Jefferson who gave a very informative and interesting talk on "Our Ingliab Queens." He pointed out that each time the ruling English monarch has been a woman, it has been an import- ant time in history, Even from the early, almost forgotten Boadacea, who it is said led her armies to battle, and re- membering Queen Bertha who helped christianize England, Lady Jane Grey, Mary I, Elizabeth in whose reign the great Armada was defeated, Mary who ruled jointly with William of Orange, Qtieen Anne, and the great queen Victoria whose rule was the longe est in English history, we see that each reign has been a mile- stone. Elizabeth II comes at a time when the going will be difficult and she needs the help of her people. We, as teachers can be a powerful influence in directing the' thoughts of the future gen- eration when they are at the most impressionable age. Yet, if we cannot do big things, we can at least do the little ones and be content, in small ways to support Her Royal Majesty, Queen Eliza- beth II. In keeping with the "Irish sea- son" Margaret Holland sang "When Irish Eyes are Smiling" accompanied by June Miller. A delicious lunch was served by the hostess committee at the close of the meeting. Engagements Announced Mr, and Mrs. Bert Jackson, Blyth, wish to announce the engagement of Florence Beat- rice Gosman, Clinton, form- erly of Trenton, Nova Scotia; .to Alexander Bozak, Clinton, the marriage to take place early in April, 13-p ¤4-4,-•-10-4-4-40-++4-404-.÷4.4-••+++-44-..
