THE LUCKNOW SENTINEL, LUCKNOW, ONTARIO PAGE TWENTY-ONE The 27th Annual Officer's Con- ference of the Federated Women's Institute of Ontario was at Water- ' loo campus, April 29, 30 and May is a training session for Officers of . Woolen's Institute. This year it is' fOr Branch Secre- tary-treasurers, conveners of Ag- riculture and Canadian Indust- ries and Blemberi-at-large. There was a registration of 600. The delegates gathered.at the Humanities Theatre Tuesay af- ternoon when the immediate past president, Mrs. Harvey L. Nob- litt was chairman for the session and introduced the new president, Mrs. Herb Maluske, Chesley: She spoke on the theme of the Confer- ence "Undertake something that is difficult; It will dO you good, Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow" — Ronald E. Osborn.. This growth process is a life- time thing. I believe there is no time in, one's life when one can say he has stopped growing. Learning goes on as long as we live, adding new facts and skills. 50% of the intellectual capacity of an adult has been developed by age of 4, and 60% by age 8. As this is Mrs, Robt. B. Webers' sixth and last term. as Secretary treasurer of the Officer's Confer- ence, 'we wish to 'pay tribute for the masterful way in which she has run the conference. I wish' to suggest a couple of things we could Start mastering. The art of listening. If you undertake to pay strict attention to all directives and follow them then there is no need to ask Mrs: Weber to repeat directions. Officers' Conference- is a training session, learningex- perience for you. There is not time at the next meeting to re- port on all yoU haVe learned, but rather you can also interject with factual information after a peridd of 'many years. When a term of office expires, be willing to show the incoming person "the ropes." Let us undertake to un- derstand one another and master the skill of tolerance. • Since last year this time, we haye been hearing much about In Women's Year with its slogan — equality, develoPment and peace. How' can we have peace if there is none of it in the home? There are' three steps,lead- ing to, perfect, harmony; think kindly of every person; speak kindly' and act kindly toward him or her. "Let there be peace in the world and may it begin with me." We must voice strong united opinions against the increasing use of profanity in the media and on television, display of violence and obscenity, alcolholism, drugs, abortion, rape and the list goes on. Our forbearers struggled hard to establish good moral standards and it behooves us to undertake to uphold them or the very found- ation of our nations will collapse and bring the structure down with it. The Hon. Wm. A. Stewart, Min-/ inter,, Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food, addressed the gathering. Greetings' were given by Dr. Holmes, Director of Re- search Administration, University of Waterloo. Lively musical inter- ludes were lead by Mrs. R. J. Winmill and pianist Mrs. Harold Roland. Mr. Paul Fry, who is presently studying Opera at. the' Toronto University, delighted the gathering with his selection 'of solos. Mrs. John A. McLean, Eureka, Nova Scotia is, paying her official visit to Ontario as president of the Federated Women's Institutes of Canada. "You and Your Or- ganization". The first concern of . 'rural women is 'for families, their communities, and last, themsel- ves. As an individual W.I. mem- ber, you are the link to join com- munity together, -around the prov- ince, across Canada, and to our International organizations. We need tolerance, sincerity, courage, wisdom, honesty and the close relationship of a family unit. It is- our responsibility to be well informed, with compassion and concern for those suffering injus- tice. No easy 'task lies ahead. On Wednesday, 546 went by bus to visit the Erland Lee Home at Stoney Creek. Many compliments were expressed on the renovation program which has taken place during winter months.

Mrs. Earl Morden, chairman, Secretary Treasurer; Mrs. John King, Ag- riculture and Canadian Indust- ries; Mrs. Harvey Noblitt, mem- bers-at-large; with 17 other lead- ers assisting.

Carbert, General Man- ager, Ontario Agricultural Mus- eum, Milton, 'was the Thursday afternoon speaker. Much interest was Shown.
