He is survived by his wife, the former Mildred Allen, his mother, Mrs. Cornish, daughters Mrs. John (Doris) Draaisma of Ailsa Craig, Mrs. Douglas (Mu- riel) Maxwell, Hensall, and Mar- garet, James, Francis, Nancy, and Clayton, all at home, and four grandchildren. Funeral services were conduc- ted by Rev Nelson Ernst of Wood- ham at the Hopper-Hockey funer- al home Monday, January 3, 1966 with interment in Zion cemetery. Pallbearers were Messrs.

Debbie and Linda Grasby of London with their grandparents Mr. & Mrs. Claire Sisson. Mr. & Mrs. Marvin Hartwick, Stephanie and Janet of Ebenezer with Mr. & Mrs. Leonard Thack- er. Mr. & Mrs. Kenneth Parkinson, in farm management planning. He announced his topic as "Fu- ture Trends in Livestock Farm- ing" noting as the major trend a change toward bigger farms. "Bigness" he said, "Only makes us go faster in the direction we're going". This direction, he sug- gested, could he either ahead or backward. have to intensify on what we have", he said, listing func- tional buildings, efficiency, and specialization as i m po r t ant points to remember in farm plan- ning. He emphasized choosing a system carefully, making use of information and publications, Mr. Graham commented on the good work that has been done in breeding and feeding, stating that housing of livestock has not kept up. He described the situation in England where many outdated farm buildings are built of stone, will neither burn down nor fall down, and are difficult to re- model. He contrasted this with the situation here, where build- ings can be remodelled to ac- commodate a better farm system. In Britain he reported, the gov- ernment actually subsidizes re- modelling of farm buildings. The reason why some farmers here make money and some lose is the system they are using, he said. He urged his listeners to set down and plan what they, are going to do with the livestock they prefer, particulary with re- gard to buildings. The director for North Huron, Cliff McNeil of Goderich was returned by acclamation for a two year term on the Cattle Breeding Association board. The annual meeting of Huron County members of Waterloo Cattle Breeding Association was held in the Department of Agri- culture boardroom Clinton, Jan- uary 4. Over 60 breeders at- tended. Win. Allen of Woodham, WCBA director of South Huron was chairman. He introduced direct- ors and personnel of the breed- ing units who gave reports on the past year's business. President of the unit for 1965, Wally Knapp of Galt, in his ad- dress to the meeting stated that the Cattle Breeding Association is a true co-operative, operated by its members for its members. He commended the Huron County directors for their contribution to the operators of the WCBA board. Manager of the association, Wilbur J. Shantz, reported that cattle breeding services for the year were up, despite decreases in total numbers of dairy cattle. The unit bred 79,426 cows in 1965. Swine breedings for the year numbered 1959. The manager also reported that 1965 marked the 25th year of service for the breeding co- operative, which now has 40 em- ployees. Counting all private sires etc. used, over 300 bulls were made available to the mem- bers in 1965. Gordon Bell, district fieldman for the Holstein Friesian As- sociation spoke briefly and Doug Miles, Agricultural Representa- tive for Huron County introduced the guest speaker.

Fairfield William James Fairfield, 83, who has made his home in Ex- eter for almost two years with his son Cpl Jack Fairfield, An- drew St., died in South Huron Hospital, Thursday, December 30. He had been a patient only for a few days. Born in Oakville he had worked with the Toronto Star, the Winni- peg Free Press and Eaton's in Vancouver, B.C. Mrs. Fairfield pre-deceased him in 1959 in Van couver. Surviving are two sons Norman of Sturgeon Falls and Mervyn (Jack) of Exeter, one sister, Miss Josephine Fairfield, Hamil- ton, 10 grandchildren. Funeral service was conducted by Rev S. E. Lewis at the R. C. Dinney funeral home, Main St., Exeter on Monday January 3, at 11 am. Cremation at Woodland Crematorium, interment in Van- couver, B.C. Among the delegates to the As- sembly were; L. D. Palmer, Principal, South Huron D,H.S.; and Al Jewson and Robt. Smith of Central Huron D.S.S 0, V. Gibson, a senior mathe- matics teacher at Kingston Col- legiate and Vocational Institute and chairman of the Federation's Teacher Training and Supply Committee, reported that al- though their numbers were aug- mented by some 5,000 teachers each year, they were also dimin- ished by 3,000 who each year forsook the blackboard for indus- try or the other professions. The reason? Lack of sympathy from the general public, said Mr. Gibson. I think most teachers leave because they think the pub- lic doesn't think highly of them". The lure of higher-paying jobs and better conditions of work also play a part, he added. Mr. Gibson, who has been tea- ching for 25 years, thought that a lot of young teachers find the vir- tual seven-day week in teaching hard to take. I'd like to see a five- day week, he said, and one period off for every one taught - to give him time to prepare for his next lesson". He estimated that the average teacher had only one period off each day, out of nine. To make possible alternate pe- riods on and off, he thought the total number of teachers in the province would have to be doub- led. Another problem facing the profession Is that of updating secondary school teachers to meet the rapidly changing re- quirements of curriculum. New courses and amended courses are being implemented faster than the teachers can learn how to cope with them. The meeting agreed, by reso- lution, that the Federation should be responsible for organizing the necessary retraining pro- gram, but it was beyond its fi- nancial resources to pay for this. Much of the cost, it was deter- mined, would have to be borne by the Department of Education and local boards of education. One resolution asked that tea- chers be allowed to spend at least two years studying new courses between their develop- ment and implementation. But the Federation also indicated that it would "assume an aggressive role in the shaping of new courses," Service for Mrs. E. Knight Mrs. Edward Knight, 98, form- erly of this community, died in Clinton Thursday, December 30. She was the former Emma Blanche Pengelly. She and her husband farmed on Highway 4, one mile and a quarter south of Exeter retiring to Centralia. Mr. Knight predeceased her in De- cember 1949. Surviving are six daughters and three sons: Mrs. Beatrice Spackman of Guelph, Clarence and Reginald of Exeter, Frank of Tees, Alberta, Mrs. Ernestine Madge of Simcoe, Mrs. C. (Win- nie) Brokenshire of New Haven, Mich., Mrs. Ted (Elsie) Davies, Forest, Mrs. Herb (Laura) Meek, London, Mrs. Harvey (Gertrude) Schroeder, of Troy, Mich., 32 grandchildren, 55 great-grand- children and 10 gre a t-great- grandchildren. Funeral services were con- ducted by Rev. J. P. Gandon at the Hopper-Hockey funeral home, Exeter on Saturday, January 1, 1966 with interment in Kirkton Anglican cemetery. Pallbearers were four sons- in-law Ted Davies, Clifford Bro- kenshire, Harvey Schroeder, Herb Meel and two grandsons, Harold Goble and Lloyd Knight.

Looking back on the school year of 1964-65, I think it could be called a successful year for all. We bid adieus to former Grade 13 students, and we wel- comed a new group of Grade- niners. Our volleyball and basketball teams were quite successful, as were our Panthers. We parted with many teachers and we welcomed many new ones. We had a colorful ''At Home" dance and we chose ourQueen - Kathy Buxton. We got around to talking about the SHDHS addition and the orig- inal cost kept increasing, but we are now definitely planning to start in 1966. We once again, had a success- ful magazine campaign with the top salesman - Margaret Sal- mon. We had a top science fair with many outstanding exhibits made by students in all grades. The crowd was very good. Of course, we all wrote three sets of exams and most of us were fairly pleased with the results. We had public speaking con- tests and competition was keen. Two students entered a speak- ing contest for a trip to the United Nations. We thanked Mr. Sturgis for his many years of loyalty to SHDHS and wished he and his wife well in the future. We wel- comed Mr. Palmer and his fam- ily to Exeter and wished Mr. Palmer good luck in his new role as SHDHS principal. Yes, there were many good things about 1964-65 and fortu- nately there were few bad as- pects. There were a few acci- dents in which students were in- jured, but none seriously. People became ill, but recovered and there were those students who left school. The 1964-65 year was a good one for SHDHS students and we can only hope that 1965-66 will be as good to us. The top classes in the 1965-66 magazine campaign werel2F and 9B. There was only about $12 difference in their returns, so both classes will receive a trip to London. Good work group! One aspect of the school year which we all love is exam time. Students will commence January exams, Thursday, Jan. 20 and According to one scientist, the human brain could store about 50 times more information than is contained in the 9,000 volumes of the Library of Congress.
