Wingham, Jerry Fry of Elmira and Mr. Munro went on record as for all students taking the cc-, cupational courses. They agreed to exchange examin- ation papers to arrive at some form of uniformity. PENDULUM SWINGS Mr. Harland advised that in Clinton there are 852 students registered in vocational courses out of a total enrolment of 1, 252. He believes the pendu- lum is swinging away from the academic types of education and largely because of the trend to higher prestige for the skill- ed worker. Directors claim that industry demands standardization of ex- aminations and of marking. Alkin Hastings' Funeral Saturday One of Wingham's older residents, Robert Alkin Hastings, died on Friday of last week in the Wingham and District Hos- pital. He was 84 years of age and had suffered only a short illness. Mr. Hastings was born on the 9th concession of Turnberry Township. He was a son of the late David and Eliza Hastings. He was married at Ridgetown in 1921 to the former Netta Show- ers, who survives. They had farmed in Turnberry Township until their retirement to Wing - ham 10 years ago. Mr. Hast- ings was an elder in the Presby- terian Church. Service was conducted by his minister, Rev. G. L. Fish, at the Walker funeral home on Saturday at 3 p.m., with inter- ment in the Wingham Cemetery The pallbearers were Fraser For- gie, Joseph Tiffin, Leslie For- tune, Walter Woods, Eldred Nichol and Leslie Beirnes. School departments, therefore must work toward this end. Addressing the session, Mr. Munro said the acceptance of technical education has advanc- ed considerably from the time when vocational instruction was considered fit only for menials and slaves. "Technical education must accept the responsibility thrust upon it by the technological world," he said. Harold Pollock, administra- tor of the Listowel Distract Sec- ondary School, took part in a discussion on budgets for tech- nical courses. PLAN FURTHER MEETING Directors agreed further meetings are necessary to con- sider setting -up of standards, in- ventories in relation to school operations and preparation tor budgets.
