Mrs. Mary Hesser, president of the Federation of Women's Teachers Associations of On- tario said in a news conference after the closed meeting that there is no longer a reason for a difference in per pupil grants from the provincial government to local school boards. Mrs. Hesser said she was worried because rather than closing the gap between grants for elementary schools students and secondary school students, the government was actually widening the gap. .Mrs. Hesser said there is a difference of $527 between per-pupil grants for secondary and elementary schools. She said this difference has historical roots dating back to when secondary schools were more specialized than elemen- tary schools, Costs were higher in running a secondary school because of the expensive equip- ment for 'shops in vocational schools and laboratories. Class sizes had to be smaller in the shops so costs were higher. • The higher qualifications of secondary school teachers also Car club The Maitland Valley Region of the Historical Automobile Society of Canada, held an executive meeting of 1974 of- ficers and their wives at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Felkar, Kurtzville on Thursday evening, November 15. The 1974 officers are as follows: President, Harold Felkar, Kurtzville; vice-president, Don McNeil, Brussels; treasurer, Harold Cosens, Gowanstown; secretaries, Philip and Marie Parson, Gowanstown; ac- tivities, Max Watts, Brussels; Doug Conley, Wingham;safety, Charles Hudson, Kurtzville; Grant McKenzie, Drew; direc- tors, Lloyd Forler, RR I Clif- ford; Harvey Douglas, Atwood; Murray Hall, Wingham; Geo. Brown, Gorrie. The executive agreed on the activities proposed: that mon- thly tours to various areas of the region are to be held on the third Sunday of each month from May until October; that indoor meetings from Novem- ber until April be held on the third Tuesday of each month in the Gowanstown Municipal Hall at 8 p.m. One of the highlights of the tours will be to Huronview in Clinton in June, in period costume to help celebrate Senior Citizens Week and also several centennial celebrations being held in 1974. Villages or towns having a made a difference, she said. But now, with new government regulations coming into effect which make it necessary for a elementary school teacher to have a university degree, she said, this difference is gone. At present, she said, about one fifth of elementary school teachers have degrees and about one fifth of secondary school teachers do not have degrees. In the past, she said, elemen- tary school teachers were ex- pected to teach only the three R's. But now, she said, the teacher is expected to give in- dividualized instruction and be able to diagnose the special needs of each pupil. To fill this new role, Mrs. Hesser said, the teacher needs more help, which makes it important more money be devoted to elemen- tary education. If teachers can meet the needs of students at the primary level, she said, many of the problems of secon- dary students could be Mrs. Hesser said that to do this, however, it is essential to have more money and to have smaller class sizes. She said government cutbacks in education spending had meant some of the special services meets centennial in 1974 and wishing the antique cars in a parade, shduld call Max Watts, Brussels, 887-6336, The area served by Maitland Valley Region is from Orangeville to the Lakefront and from Hwy. 23 to Owen Sound.

If the grant structure was made the same for both school systems, she said, elementary schools could afford the things they need to do- the job right, such as labs and shops. Mrs, Hesser described Mon- day's meeting as an infor- mation meeting and said it is important to have the feelings of the teachers across the province if the Federation is to work for a better deal.

He is presently employed in the Respiratory Department at St. Joseph's Hospital in Lon- don. At times, Johnny and Joan nay bring home a dental slip from school, which requests your permission for their teeth to, be checked and cleaned, Because your children visit the family dentist regularly and haven't complained about toothaches, you may wonder about the checkup's worth, When a dental health team, visits a school, it wants to provide a dental check for as many children as possible. Many mothers forget how time flies and that it's close to checkup time. Aside from ser- ving as a good reminder, school checkups often allow for detec. tion of cavities when they are just beginning. The met six months between visits provides enough time for decay to set in, especially in children's teeth. You may decide after the school checkup that you'd bet- ter get your child to the dentist even before the six-month. visit comes due to catch the decay while its just beginning. This would save much time, expense and :give less discomfort to the The school health team, can often spot if your child's teeth and jaws .are not _developing properly and you may want to get your dentist's teeth with fluoride to help prevent decay. The team may also give classroom talks„, show films on dental health and teach the proper brush** technique, Sometimes the/ children are given a dental" colouring book or a free toothbrush, After /the school checkup, if, your child comes home shouting "Look me, no cavitieal" don't be deluded into thinking you can delay Ilia ap- pointment with your regular dentist. The school dental team does not use x-rays and cannot give a thorough checkup. The school team alerts you that treatment may be needed, but it is your dentist who establishes what type and how much treatmer?t, is needed. -- Canadian Dental Association United Church Greetings into the sanctuary at the Lonclesbore United Church last Sunday were Henry Hunking and Harry Snell.
