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."
