Semester at the University of

scholarships are awarded
regionally from a $19,000 fund

scholarships will be awarded in

anniversary of the W. I. They are
made possible from the earned

pick up the option on this home
at Stoney Creek in 1972. The
Board Directors voted to set
aside a Foundation Fund for the
maintenance of the home and
voted to assess each Branch ten
cents per member towards the
establishment of this fund. Mrs.
Austin S. Zoeller will remain as
chairman of this continuing
committee.
The Provincial celebration of
the 75th anniversary of the
founding of the first Women's
Institute at Stoney Creek on

of the committee compiling the
Ontario Women's Institute
Story, reported the book is in
the hands of the printer and it is
expected to be available early in

The Board also accepted a
recommendation from the
International Scholarship
Committee that $2000 of
accumulated interest from this
fund to be given for the training
of another girl in Turkey and
that FWIO work through the
ACWW. This fund was
established as a 65th anniversary
project to assist young women in
developing countries and the
most recent recipient has been
Nazmiye Satinets who has been
receiving training in nutrition
and midwifery. The remaining
$300 in interest was voted to the
ACWW to help in the training of
someone also of their choice
where they feel need is greatest.
The Hon. Wm. A. Stewart,
minister of Agriculture and
Food, addressed the Board of
FWIO at their Annual Banquet.
After congratulating Mrs. Zoeller
for "her tremendous leadership"
over the past three years, he
stated, "In a world of confusion,
distress and trouble it is rather
refreshing to find the Women's
Institute Making the best.of that
which they have, not grousing
about Situations but taking hold
and trying to improve
conditions."
"It is easy to knock down
traditions but much harder to
build constructively as the W. I.
is doing," he said, and I do not
know of any other rural
organization that has done so
much for the betterment of the
standard of living."
Mr. Stewart also praised the
organization for the leadership
they provide in 4—H Training
which has a value that cannot be
estimated.
Provincial President Mrs.
Austin S. Zoeller presented Mr.
Stewart with a copy of "The
Last Spike" in honor of his
tenth anniversary as minister of
Agriculture and Food and in
Appreciation of his assistance to
the W. I. over the years.
Mrs. Harvey Noblitt, newly
elected president of FWIO, was
then introduced at the banquet
and spoke briefly expressing
appreciation for the honor.
"I am sincerely humble and
keenly aware of the
responsibility," he said, "and I
hope I have the wisdom, good
judgement and dignity worthy
of the W. I. organization."
Among reports of the past
year's activities, Mrs, R. C.
Walker, St. Georges Provincial
Tweedsmuir History Curator,
reported 1,341 Tweedsmuir
Histories which is an increase of
85. Mrs. Walker reminded the
Board that a Tweedsmuir
History is a book of historical
facts about a given community
and its people, and to be
treasured and used by the
community. "We are gradually
losing our identity and as these
satellite cities and regional
government engulf us, our
Tweedsmuir Histories will be the
only, sole link with the past,"
said Mrs. Walker.
Appointments to the
consumer's section of. the
Ontario Food Council were the
President Mrs. Noblitt, Mrs,
Emerson Endes, Hanover; Mrs.
Wm. Mitchell, Rogersville; Mrs.
Ross Johnston, Woodslee; Mrs.
Cecil Bell, Prescott; Mrs.
Rebecca Johnson, Thunder Bay;
and Mrs, John Rumble, Cilford.

Cawker, Nestleton; Mrs. James
Pilkington, Mount Brydges; and
Mrs. Allen Gillis, Cameron.

painting was made to Mrs.
Austin S. Zoeller, retiring
provincial President, by Mrs.
Everett Small, Essex, in
recognition of her outstanding
leadership and accomplishments
in the past three years. On
behalf of the Board, Mrs. A. S.
Zoeller made a presentation to
Mrs. Clarence Diamond who has
completed her six year term as
Public Relations Officer of the
Federated Women's Institutes of
Ontario.
The Semi-Annual Board
Meeting of the Federated
Women's Institutes of Ontario
will be held April 24-27,
University of Guelph. Officers'
Conference will also be held at
the University of Guelph, May
2,3, and 4, 1972,
A stalled vehicle on a highway
is not only inconvenient, it call
be highly dangerous, Hal Wright,
Farm Safety Specialist, Ontario
Department of Agriculture and
Food, says certain .precautions
and aids can help reduce the
dangers.
Mr. Wright advises motorists
to be aware of safety devices and
those items in the car which can
be used as such in an emergency,
Flares are one common way
to mark a stalled vehicle. They
last for approximately 20
minutes to warn other drivers.
However, they should never be
used as a hand signal to slow
down or direct traffic. The
burning flare emits acid that will
burn clothing and could burn
flesh. They are designed solely
to be put into the ground as a
stationary warning.
For traffic control, a
fluorescent. orange 10-inch
plastic cone that fits over a
flashlight head can be used. Also
available is a hollow triangle,
similar to the slow moving
vehicle sign, without the
fl uorescent orange center, that
can be placed up-traffic from the
vehicle.
It is also a good idea to have
other safety items in the car. A
C.S.A.-approved one-pound dry
chemical fire extinguisher is
available from safety supply
companies. This is a one-time
non-rechargeable unit that costs
about rive dollars. A first aid kit
could prove to be a lifesaver.
Many car features can be used
to advantage. Don't forget to use
the fourway flashers or the
dome light. As the dome light is
rarely used when the car is in
motion, it is an indication of
stationary vehicle.
The insides of hub caps can be
Painted fluorescent orange end
used in an emergency.
The spare tire can be used as a
life raft in a water emergency,
Many items have a seeondary
use as safety precautions. Know
their safety features, both
intended and potential, and be
ready for an emergency — safely.
