UCW learn about
educational systems This weekend marks the first
long holiday weekend of the spring
and summer season. You guessed
it. I'm looking forward to it and
yes, we're planning to spend it at
our trailer.
Actually we've been out to the
trailer several times this season
already just getting the place in
shape for the summer to come.
Funny thing about that trailer.
The work we do there isn't work at
all it is sheer enjoyment for my
husband and me.
We've got several things
planned both indoors and out. Just
simple little improvements which
we hope will make things all the
more pleasant this summer.
The first thing on the agenda is
a fishworm holder. What's that? I
didn't have a clue either. I don't
fish and neither does my husband
but we decided that since our
youngest child had shown such an
interest in fishing last summer,
we'd get him some fishing gear
for his birthday,
It took a quick trip over to
Canadian Tire to find just the rod
and reel we were looking for. And
as far as we knew, our boy was
outfitted for fishing — and our
parental duty had been fulfilled.
Not so. A good neighbour who is
also an avid fisherman told us that
bait was almost more essential
than the rod.
"I doubt that there will be many
fish worms among all those
trees," said our neighbour. "You
are going to have to take bait with
you."
That's just what I wanted to
hear, In addition to the clothes and
the food and the beer and the books
from the library each weekend,
I'm going to have to tote along a
can of worms.
"Where do you buy worms?" I
asked, hoping he'd tell me of some
quaint little place nearby to the
trailer.

Wesley-Willis .U.C.W. met in
the Recreation Room of- the
church Wednesday, May 10 with
Mrs. 'red Davies, president, in
the chair.
The minutes of the previous
General Meeting were read by
Mrs. H, Porter and the
treasurer's report given by Mrs.
B, Sutter,
The Committee reports were
given by the various conveners
and showed excellent progress.
Mrs. Les Ball reported 24
cartons of clothing contributed
and asked for further articles for
Angola,
death-row in the
Penitentiary.—someplace to keep
the victims in the best of health
but secured until the sentence is
carried out.
A fishworm holder can be
easily made by digging a sizeable
hole in a cool, but not too cool,
area of the yard, When you've
scooped out all the earth, you drop
.in a piece of fine screening. Then
you camouflage your trap by
filling it with sweet, fine. cool, but
not too cool, moist earth.
Into that haven you place the
unsuspecting worms you've
collected by the light of the moon
and then, to further the crime
against those helpless creatures,
yon snap on a fine mesh lid so the
captives cannot escape. They
must then just wait until they are
crucified and sent to a watery
grave.
But by far the most
controversial issue this spring is
the set of steps leading up to the
trailer door. My husband is a one-
use builder. I'm a several-uses
construction foreman.
The Clinton Women's Institutes recently celebrated the 75th anniversary of the Federated Women's
Institutes of Ontario with a dinner at St. Andrews Church hall. Seen at the head table are: (left to right),

Mr, 'Nediger spoke more
pari'cularly on Leningrad,
Estonia and Moscow giving vivid
descriptions of the. beautiful
pictures he showed and
interesting facts and figures on
these countries.
Of these one was the stress laid
op the Group system as against
that of stressing the individual
and another the system of nursery
schools beginning at four months
of age so parents may work. The
results of such a system are yet to
be proved,
It was an interesting, and
informative evening interspersed
with bits of dry humour which
delighted the audience.
Mrs. H, Harvey thanked the
speaker and the meeting closed
with prayer by Dr. Mowatt.
Mrs. Curry reported for
Citizenship and Social action,
Mrs. Nelson for Stewardship,
reading an appropriate passage
on the subject. Mrs, M, Holland,
Christian and Missionary
Education, made a request for
help for the Explorers Group
entertainment.
The president announced the
plans for the Retreat June 4 from
9:30 until 3 o'clock at Menesetung
Camp, Goderich:
An invitation was received
from Brucefield U.C.W. to attend
their Visitors Day to be held
Tuesday, June 6.
Plans were set afoot for a
"Shut-In Day" and "Get
Acquainted Day" June 21 at the
home of Mrs. Frank Finland.
The meeting then repaired to
the sanctuary where the
devotionals were held, led by
Mrs. C. Stewart. The Scripture
lesson was read by Mrs. Wilfred
Jervis and prayer offered by Mrs,
H. Howard.
Mrs. Davies then introduced
the guest speaker for the evening,
Mr. Bill Nediger who had recently
attended an Educational Seminar
in Russia, Bulgaria and France.
The purpose of this was to learn
something of the educational
system of these countries.

"Where do you buy them?"
asked my witty neighbor. "All you
have to do is go outside after dark
with a flashlight and pick them up
off the top of the ground. But you'll
need someplace to keep them."
Worms, I learned, needed to be
alive and well until they were
threaded onto the fish hook, all
squiggly and wiggly and
screaming with pain. That
necessitates a set-up similar to
Films in school
The argument is raging.
Husband says a set of steps is a
set of steps and nothing more, If
they take you from ground level to
the door they have played their
part.
I say that stepping is just the
beginning of a whole host of
exciting and useful functions for a
set of steps. For instance, with a
railing around, it could become a
planter for flowers. With a roof
over it, it could become a porch,
Closed in beneath, it could be a
storage shed. Built out at one
side, it could rack bicycles.
Spread out across the bottom, it
could be a sun deck. And that's
just the beginning.
If it had steps up both sides it
could make for easy access to the
road and to the barbecue. If it was
built with foresight it could be a
clothesline stand. If it was
screened in it could provide a
mosquito-free haven on a
mosquito infested night. If it was
built of cement, it could
encompass a barbecue.
There's not much use to think
about it any more. The steps will
be steps and nothing else — and
once more my Better Homes and
Garden training goes amuck.

Will the film Dr. Strangelove
aid Ontario secondary school
students to better realize the need
for understanding and respect for
law and order?
The Ministry of Education
thinks so because it has included
Dr. Strangelove, and other films
such as A Man For All Seasons.
The Chase, 1984, On The
Waterfront, and In Cold Blood as
teaching aids that can be
effectively used with a new
Ministry curriculum guideline on
law. Also included is a 12 part
Ontario Educational
Communications Authority
series, "The Law and Where it's
At".
The new guideline is designed
to allow teachers to develop
courses which will provide
students with an in-depth
understanding of law as it relates
to our society. To this end the
guideline recognizes nine broad
,areas of law, commercial,
constitutional, criminal, and
quasi criminal, fam,ily,
international, labor and welfare
legislation, laws affecting
property real and personal and
general topics such as election
legislation municipal and school
law.
Education Minister Thomas
Wells said that courses developed
within the guidelines will provide:
students with an understanding of
law as it relates to
responsibilities and rights within
the framework of our legal
system. The courses will also
give students a better
understanding of the mechanics of
society's legal, business, social
and governmental institutions, he
said.
