He told that great emphasis is being put on stewardship and everyone is looking forward to greater things. This tenth pro - vines. of the Dominion of Can- ada is now opening up new roads. The mission boats which help to spread the love of Christ are fast disappearing as the remote places can now be reached by land, He concluded his interesting message by tel- ling of his personal experiences during the recent bad fire in that country. The WMS president, Mrs. G. W. Tiffin and Mrs. Harold Phillips, Blyth, the WA presi- dent, both spoke about the work of their organizations and led in 'a discussion concerning the new organization, "The United Church Women of Canada."

CASH FRED HENNICK & SON Propriei'ors 41.-243{4b Opportunities Qutlined By Education Minister A Statexnent by UUn. John P, ,li,ob rts, Minister of Education Ontario's secondary school system will be re -organized on a three -branch basis with new programs and courses of study designed to provide greatly ex- panded opportunities for the development of the full poten- tial of all its students. This was announced in August by the Honourable .John P. Ro- berts, Minister of Education, These changes will be imple- mented one grade at a time over a period of five years, commencing in September, 1962. The precise contents of the new programs and courses will be developed during the next few months on the ' basis of consultations ,throughout the Province with teachers, univer- sity authorities, educational of- ficials, trustees, parents, and representatives of business, in- dustry and labour, School boards will be en couraged to organize their sec- ondary schools into three dis- tinct but equal branches: (1) arts and science; (2) business and commerce; (3) engineer- ing, technology and trades. Within each branch, there will be an interesting and chal- lenging five-year program end- ing in Grade 13, through which students may proceed to high- er education and training. Each branch will offer, as an alternative for those whose ap- titudes and ambitions do not tend toward advanced educa- tion, a four-year program end- ing in Grade 12, with a dis- t i n et 1 y practical emphasis which will lead Its graduates more directly into the field of their life's work. There will also be a one or two-year program offering oc- cupational subjects, designed to prepare students for the service trades and occupations. This will be primarily for pupils who are admitted to secondary schools without regular promo- tion from the elementary grad- es. rades. Additional facilities required to house the new secondary school system are being devel- oped throughout Ontario under a Federal -Provincial agreement announced jointly in May by Mr. Roberts and the Hon. Michael Starr, Federal Minister of Labour. As of August 21, Clinton WI Plan Bus Trip To Royal Winter Fair The Clinton Women's Insti- tute met Thursday, October 26 at 2.30 p.m. in the agricultural office board room, with Mrs. C. Nelson, president, in charge. Ladies were reminded` of an in- vitation to the Londesboro WI bazaar on November 15, and of a bus trip to the Royal Winter Fair on November 16. Members should, meet at the Library Park for both occas- ions. Mrs. Melvin Crich gave a report of the Women's Instit- ute rally at Elimville and pres- ident Mrs. C. Nelson gave a paper on WI work. George H. Jefferson, retired principal of Clinton Public School gave a splendid address on education, stressing the dif- ference in education now from what it used to be. The ladies much enjoyed this address. Mrs, H. Managhan spoke on girls club work, noting there are 12 girls in the Clinton 4•+H Homemaking Club called the Clinton Fruit Lassies. Mrs. E. Radford played a pi- ano instrumental. Mrs, M. Bat- kin demonstrated the making of cushions. Roll call was an- swered by repeating :a verse from an old school reader, Af- ter a penny sale, lunch was served by the hostesses. "qtr 1961, school boards hadreceiv- ed approval to build 126 schools or additions to schools to ac- commodate what will now be the Business and Commerce, Engineering, Technology and Trades Branches. Half of these projects will be located in areas where courses offered in the latter branch have never pre- viously been available to stu- dents. Thus, in many parts. of Ontario, the plan opens up .ex- citing new educational oppor- tunities for young people. (Huron County's new second- ary school to be built in Clin- ton is part of this plan,) The question of teaching staff for the revised and en- larged secondary school system has received particular atten- tion, and the Department of Education expects that it will be able to staff the schools adequately as the plan develops. There will, of course, be a de- mand for many more instruc- tors in the Engineering, Tech- nology and Trades Branch. Steps have been taken to re- cruit them and, as a result, there will be a special class of 290 tradesmen training as technical teachers at the On- tario College of • Education ..NOTES.. (By JACK C. DIETRICH) Hello again; This week I would like to discuss the Can- adian small five cent silver pieces. There are 47 different dates with approximately seven different varieties. The first five cent silver piece came out in 1858 and the last one in 1921 when it was decided to use a larger coin made of nic- kel. Today most of these pieces are kept as souvenirs, although coin collectors do have quite a number of them, Very few of the 47 different pieces are hard to acquire, except the 1921 issue which catalogues over $100 up to $1,000 in un- circulated condition. Most of the 2,582,495 coins minted for 1921 were melted down when the larger nickel was issued and today there are only about 100 known. Most of the five cent silver pieces you see today are worn quite badly and are not worth too much except a few dates which are hard to get. For example, 1858, 1875, 1883, 1884, 1889, 1894, 1898 and of course the 1921. The most familiar name for these coins is "small nickel" but this is an incorrect term considering the fact that there is no nickel in these coins, the correct term is "five cent sil- ver". If you have any of these coins, send me a list and I'll let you know their approximate value. Thank you.

R. THEDE HEARING AID SERVICE 88 Queen St. S. Kitchener during the Corning winter Ses- sion. A plan to provide an adequate supply a teachers for the business and commercial branch is now under cansidera tion.. Commencing in September, 1962, pupils entering Grade 9 will be carefully interviewed and counselled, in close consul- tation with their parents, and they will choose one of the three branches in which to en- rol. In Grade 9, they will de- vote 20 percent of their time to subjects pertaining to their particular branch, While it is very necessary in this fast-moving age that students decide on a vocation as early as possible, there will be a reasonable degree of flex- ibility in the new systerp.. At the end of Grade 9, successful pupils will be free to transfer from branch to branch, and after Grade 10 11 will be Pos- sible within certain necessary limitations for pupils to trans- fer from branch to branch and program to program, When he enters Grade 10, the pupil will decide whether he wishes to proceed to higher education via the five-year pro- gram ending in Grade 13, or whether his ,abiliities and inter- ests indicate that he shoulid select the four-year program and finish school after Grade 12. The five-year program in each branch will concentrate on high scholastic achievement aimed ultimately at more ad- vanced education and training either in the professions, or, depending upon the .branch in which the student is enrolled, in the• fields of business admin- istration or engineering and technology. The four-year program in each branch will be entirely free of university entrance re- quirements and will be geared to the interests and needs of students who want a solid grounding in a field which will lead them directly into employ- ment. The Department expects that over the years the re -organiza- tion of •the secondary school system will have the following beneficial effects: 1. It will make school more interesting and rewarding for students throughout Ontario. 2. It will elicit maximum achievement from greater num- bers of students at all levels. 3. It will educate and train a much larger proportion of our young people more thor- oughly and to a higher degree and will thus help Canada to meet the challenges of today's increasingly complex social and economic setting.
