Mrs. Hayes Fine Speaker
A delegation of four local members,
Wroxeter Women's. Institute, attended
the District Conference at Fordwich,
on Thursday, when the subject for dis-
cussion was "Developing Community
Enterprize." Mrs. Clarence Hayes,
Georgetown, was in charge and was
introduced by Mrs. McCann, presi-
dent of the Fordwich Branch. Mrs.
Hayes said women during the war had
learned to work together and had ac-
complished a tremendous result. Be-
cause of the political 'and Economic
unrest, The lower moral standard, Juv-
enile Delinquency, there is need for
greater leadership in every village and
community as well as the larger places.
Recreation centres are being set up
in larger places. These too may be ob-
tained by groups of smaller places and
the government will pay one third of
the salary of the Recreational Leader.
A Health programme is being set tip
across Canada at present. Adult Edu-
cation is suggested. National Film
Board pictures, Dramatic groups,
Choral Societies, Handicrafts, Travel-
ling Libraries are available to any
Community. Education is not only for
the young but from the cradle to the'
grave. Every citizen should first
have knowledge, then interest and act-
ion will follow. It is the duty of every
citizen to give of their time and talents
to make their community a better
place in which to live. Mrs: McCann
spoke words of appreciation to Mrs.
Hayes. Mrs. Newlove was at the piano.
Tea was served by the Fordwich lad-
ies and a social gout. enjojyed.

One Good Meal In U. K. Empties
Larder For A Week
A Bulletin from United Emergency
Fund for Britain reads as follows: You
can make a pretty full meal of two
small lamb chops, two slices of bacon,
the usual vegetables and 11/4 ounces
of cheese, But--if an Englishman ,did
so, he would have little but vegetables
some fish and a few canned goods left
for the rest of the week.
Three years after the war, British
food rations are smaller than they were
when Hitler's bombs and rockets were
falling on this Island. ]!aeon, ham,
cheese, jam rations have been reduced.
Vegetables, fruits, fresh fish are ration
free. Canned goods rationed on. points.
Britain has cut her ration far below
the level of worst war days to help her
trade recovery effort.
Itt the near future a canvas will be
made of the village of Wroxeter. Mem.
bers of the local Women's Institute,
have been asked to collect cash gifts.
We, who live in Canada are asked to
give generously to help those who have
had restrictions on food and clothing
for so many years,
