Comments
On Workshops
' By J. CARL HEMINWAY
Tuesday evening, Dec. 3, Hur-;:
on County Federation ,of Agri-
culture. arranged a meeting of
township representatives and the
cemmunity programs branch,
Department of'Education •
Under the leadership of Miss
Eleanor' Syracuse, a panel of
Rev. Bert Daynard of Staffa,
Rev. Doug. Brydon of Ripley,
Mrs. Boyce of Grey County, Mrs.
William Arnold of Ripley and
Bob Secord of Hanover supplied
information on the different ed-
ucational and social activities
available. '
The community programs
branch -will supply extensive pp y ns ve as-
sistance in the .organization and
financing of folk schools, night
schools, community workshops,
leadership training or recreation-
al leadership courses.
I have.been wondering if a
few of the townships might spon-
sor a community . workshop on
the history and development of
farm organizations.
It seems to me that farm or-
ganizations are facing a testing
period and knowledge of the past
might. help us to avoid the pit-
falls of the future. Never before
has` there been, such concerted
opposition to farm organization
from those outside the industry.
Stephen township held its an-
nual meeting and banquet Dec.
4 with about' 200 attending. Re-
ports were given by the differ-
ent groups as well. as from the
county organization. Doug Miles,
our genial ag rep, expressed
the appreciation of the depart,
anent for the support given to
the 4-H projects by the federa-
tion.
edera
tion.
Elmer Bell of Exeter pointed
out the legal ' problems facing
farmers and also .the advantages
of establishing a basic -herd for
income tax purposes.
,. The dance which followed was
enjoyed by many who make this
the "dance of the year."
