Since Jim is also the host farmer and a member of the Huron County local committee which is responsible for the 1978 International Plowing Match, as well as an active farmer, he is likely to be a busy fellow for the next three years. Add to all that the fact that his wife, Carol, heads the ladies' activities com- mittee of the plowing match and it makes for a busy household. The OPA annual was held at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto on Monday and Tuesday of last week, and, as usual, presented a colorful spectacle which could be compared with a full-scale politi- cal convention. Each of the county groups either seeking or already slated for an Internation- al Plowing Match brought in its own delegation, most of them headed by pipers or full bands. Each was allowed time to present highlights from their county's at- tractions for an upcoming match. The Huron delegation, 80 strong, was headed by the Sea- forth High School Girls' Band as the group entered the huge convention, room on Tuesday morning. The same band was also selected to lead in the head table guests for the noon lunch- eon. Speaking for Huron County were the general chairman, Howard Datars; his two lieu- tenants-in-chief, Allan Campbell and Roy Pattison, as well as Jim Armstrong and Huron's warden Douglas McNeil. The delegation was joined by Jack Riddell, MPP for Huron and Murray Gaunt; MPP Huron-Bruce. During the noon luncheon on Tuesday former minister of agri- culture, Bill Stewart, was pre- sented with a lifetime pass to all future international matches in recognition of his long years of service -to the farming com- munity of the province. Guest speaker at the luncheon was Rev. H. S. Rodney of St. Thomas who was generally 'ac-. claimed as an outstanding orator after the gathering heard his address on "Uncommon People". Mr. Rodney enumerated the qualities which make uncommon people as dependability, kind- ness, tolerance and faith - each of which can be improved by indi- vidual attention and effort. dent, Hon.

Mrs. Bob Helesic Was WI Speaker AMBERLEY NEWS Intended for last week Sunshine and good roads result- ed in a great turnout of ladies and five children to the pot luck dinner, including a birthday cake and an "interesting and lively program held in the basement of the Pine River United Church for the February meeting of Reids Corners Women's InStitute. A birthday cake and the singing of Happy Birthday in honour of a member of Reids Corners Wom- en's Institute, Mrs. Lyle Oliver, was .presented following the din- ner. Mrs. Oliver's birthday falls on the same date and year as the Women's Institute was first formal- ly organized. It was on February 19, 1897 in Saltfleet Township, Wentworth County, through the combined efforts' of Mr. Erland Lee of the Farmers Institute and Mrs. Adel- aide Hoodless that "Without vision the people , perish" the Institute began. Following the Institute opening ceremonies, a roll call of "A .T.V. comulercial that annoys me" spiced the meeting. The guest speaker was introduced by , the convener Mrs. Robert Courtney. Mrs. Bob Helesic of Huron Township spoke on the work of Day Care Centres but more especially on Nursery Schools and Play Groups; the benefits gained, both by the children and parents and the type of program worked out for these groups. President Mrs. John H. Elliott and secretary Mrs. Leonard Reid conducted the business part of the meeting and adjourned with the closing Ode. The Branch Women's Institute is responsible for establishing an educational program for the home- makers of the community. Its enterprises should make the com- munity a better place in which to live and to promote happy, wholesome social life. It is open to all women and girls who are interested in the promotion of better living; e.g. better home- making and good citizenship. Great social and economic prob- lems confront women everywhere, with the ensuing difficulties of harmonizing home and community life. Today Women's Institutes concern themselves more with these problems than in the past. The dream of the founders was a good one as evidenced by the growth of this organization." West Huron Junior Farmers The West Huron Junior Farmers squared up and were led by Roy Pennington and Gail and Wayne Whytock in some good old time square dancing at the February meeting. Everyone had great fun, espec- ially those who had never square danced before. Few mix ups were encountered, but these were soon ironed out. No injuries were received except several "tennis" elbows. Many of the members will tibw have a new look with their new jackets. They \are brown with gold trim and lettering. Some coming events to look for are the dance in Lucknow, a draw for a sheepskin rug and Wintario tickets, plus a fun-night in March. Next meeting will be in march at Brookside School at 8 o'clock sharp.
