WHITINGS WAREHOUSE Main St. Exeter 235-1964 k__________________ August 16-19 at the 60th Annual meeting of the Federation of Women Teachers’ Association of Ontario. The Federation represents the 33,000 women teachers in Ontario’s elementary schools. Attending from this area were Margaret Hogarth of Stephen Central School and Margaret Deichert of Zurich School. Provincial President Marie MacGregor called on the delegates to try to build public confidence in the schools to counteract criticism from universities and business. She pointed out that the schools are coping with many children who would once have been regarded as uneducable or who would have dropped out in elementary school. “Considering the range of activities Which are* now considered the responsibility of the school, the wonder is that we do as well as we do”, she said. Executive Secretary Dr. Florence Henderson reported that almost one- third of the school boards in Ontario do not spend all the money which the province is willing to provide. The result is that these areas have larger classes than necessary, and may have to cut school programmes which the children in their area could have.
