D. I. McIntosh, Area
Superintendent from the Mid-
dlesex County Board of
Education addressed parents at
the Home and School Association
questions about curriculum
which may be concerning you,"
He had curriculum outlines on
display and advised that teachers
would be willing to share these
with any parents who might be
concerned about what their child
is being taught, or not taught,
Accompanied by Board
member, Hugh Baird, and fellow
Area Superintendent, Mr.
Robbins, Mr. McIntosh also
outlined the advances made over
the years in broadening
curriculums, He emphasized the
need arid place for technical
schools within the system.
Having visited a technical school
earlier in the day Mr. MacIntosh
had been impressed with skills
being learned in these schools,
"One of the boys there might
not know all the words which I
can spell", he smiled. "But he
was certainly doing some wiring
there which was beyond my
skills".
"In the past the boys and girls
attending these technical schools
would have been ranked as
failures and not allowed to ad-
vance beyond grade eight".
On behalf of those present, Mr.
McIntosh was thanked by Mr.
Howard Otterbein of the Home
and School Association, who also
urged parents to be sensitive to
Iheir children's needs and
learning abilities.

The final meeting of the 4-H
project 'Major in Meat' was
held April 5 at Cathy Regier's
home and was 'Ways with
Poultry'.
Mrs. Paynter gave a lesson on
poultry. Fresh poultry is very
perishable and should be used or
cooked within two or three days.
It should always be removed
from the store wrappings and
covered loosely with wax paper
or aluminum foil.
If giblets are included in the
neck or body cavity, remove
them and store separately
because they spoil more quickly
than the rest of the bird. You
shouldn't partially cook poultry
one day and finish the next
because bacteria will develop.
It is safe to put poultry im-
mediately in frig after cooking.
Mrs. Urquhart gave a lesson on
ducks, geese, and cornish hens.

meeting at East Williams
Memorial Public School on April
14.
Although there were only a few
parents and teachers on hand to
hear Mr, McIntosh, those in
attendance found his remarks on
the school curriculum and its
development in the Middlesex
County elementary schools ex-
tremely helpful.
He outlined the history of the
curriculum development from
the late forties to the present
time, explaining many of the
difficulties the schools have
suffered in the past,
He reminded parents of the
severe shortage of teachers in the
past which necessitated a six
week intensified teacher training
course at one point, Curriculums
were rat this point very rigidly
laid put for teachers to follow.
He compared some of the
courses of study with today's
curriculums.
"When you have an interview
with your child's teacher", he
stressed "Don't hesitate to ask
Girls learn
of clothing
The 4-H Ailsa Craig girls have
beeh 'very busy this past month
increasing their knowledge about
clothes and sewing.
Their leaders, Mrs. B.
Chamberlain and Mrs. R.
McFadden showed the members
the seven different kinds of
seams involved in sewing.
Self concept was also discussed
and the girls were given photos of
various persons, and each
member was asked to judge the
sex, age and personality of the
person in the picture,
Why we wear clothing was a
subject discussed at another
meeting and how our clothes
reflect our personality.
The girls have been learning to
sew blouses and recently put on
the collars and sewed in the
sleeves. Buttonholes, buttons and
hems have also been studied.
