MacMILLAN ' Huron. CAS Director At present we are caring for 39 children in fosterhomes in addition to six who are in in- stitutions. To date we have completed 24 adoptions and are in the process of Completing 25. As you well know the actual adoption must be finalized by His Honour, Judge F. Fing- land. He .continues to be gener- ous with his time and his wis- dom not only in giving each his individual Attention, but also the, encouragement and confidence he is able to impart to the adopting parents. „ Juvenile court work Our juvenile court work has Involved 38 children and we have been .preaent in the court for '36 hearings. I would like hereto express myapprecia- tion to the juvenile and family court judge, Glenn Hays, for his , patience and wise de- cisions in these,difficult situa- tions. It • might be interesting for , you to note that these hearings took approximately 571/2 hours and .this does not include travelling time in bringing the children to the court and in some cases where there are •a number of children involved, more than one worker has had to he on hand for supervision and transportation, Each ,znew child . taken into care also involves the finding of a foster home and helping the child through the unpleas- ant experience of adjusting to are grateful for the response a new environment. of many organizations in the Perhaps the most unpleasant county who from time to time contribute gifts and clothing, You would • notice in the newspapers recently that the first instalment of $581.00 was received from the Women's In- stitutes of the county which establishes' a special bursary to enable -boys and girls i to take some trade training. This fund will not be used for uni- versity Courses because child- ren of university standards can always be helped through spec: ial appeals and educational grants. Bid the youngster who through perhaps no fault of his own is unable to qualify for high school matriculation will thug= be assured of some assist- ance in learning a trade or a specialized type of work that will enable him or her to be a useful citizen. , case in the history of our family court was dealt with during the past period when all- the grim cruelty of a six- teenth century stepmother was revealed and the children were made permanent wards of the society. Another situation gave three bright youngsters a new lease on life and delivered them from a very bad home atmos- phere. These three particular children, the youngest of whom is nine, are in excellent homes and we have good reason to believe that they may be adopted even at their advanced ages. Among the number that we were able to return happily to their own patents is the case of a little boy and a little girl Who have been reunited with their 'nether and father and a happy home has been re. established, Theire are many statistics which we must report to the Department of Child Welfare with which I do not wish to burden you except perhaps it might be interesting for you to know that our staff made 2803 Visits • and conducted ' 679 inter- views. All this work involved many legal documents, writing of letters and contacts by tele- phone, .

Then, an appoint- ment having been arranged, She replaced the receiver, and asked: "What can 1 do for you, sir?"

Fieldman comments. •Beef •income lowest economist reveals By J. CARL HEMINGWAY HFA Fieldman g, M suggested in last week's article, I would like to give you some part • of the recent panel discussion,. chaired by Gordon Greig„ with Dr. Patter- son, Ken Standing, Bob Mc- Kercher and 'Everett Biggs taking part. Dr. Patterson stated that the farmer's income has dropped drastically since 1951 but for the past three years has shown 'some indication 'of holding the line at this -reduced level. Ken Standing reported that European markets are Avail- able for Ontario grains at a price. The high grade of On. tario grains is helpful in selling our products but we do have difficulty in providing contin- uity of stipplyy; (I might add that, since the Zone meeting, I have been in- formed that the last of the 1960 winter wheat crop has been. sold. I wonder if the dairy in- dustry. would have been in the mess it seems to be in with butter and skim -milk powder had there been a means of producer marketing similar to the wheat marketing board?) Organizations beneficial ' mr. Biggs stated that farm organizations and marketing boards had been quite benefi- cial to the farmer and while the farmer's income was not have been Much worse had it what it should be, it would :;• • not been for these orgar lions.
