Eleven answered the roll call. Hilda Payne conducted a contest with commercials seen on T.V. The ladies apparently do something else while the commercials are on or do not watch T.V. as everyone flunked the test. Grace Eyre read a poem. Grace Drummond, president, had her usual funny stories. She was presented with a Centennial sweatshirt to show the group's appreciation for all that she does for the Womens Institute. On May 21, at Hensall United Church, MacKenzie Douglas Hayter, son of Dave and Vicki, received the sacra- ment of baptism. Kyle Daniel Mann, son of Brad and Sue was also received and baptized. This past Sunday at Hensall United Church Tony VanderLaan was the guest speaker. Piet Reinsma gave the Gideon Report. The congrega- tion appreciate the ministry of these guests while the Rev. Annen was attending a confer- ence. Sadie and Murray Craig greeted the worshipers while Dave Campbell and Gerrie Glenn were the ushers. Flowers were placed in the sanctuary in memory of Murray Baker and Leona Parke. Auxiliary were hosts to the Blyth Legion and Auxiliary for the Installation of Officers. The meeting was opened by President Larry Uyl and then turned over to Deputy Zone Commander June Pyette. New- ly installed officers for the Legion are as follows: Presi- dent Larry Uyl; 1st vice presi- dent Brian Fink; 2nd vice president Dave Smale; Secretary -Treasurer Bea Uyl; Sgt -at -arms Pete Zwaan; Service Officer Larry Uyl; Exectutive - Betty Simmons, Lillian Beer, Elaine Cooper, Glen Cooper and Carl Zimmer.

The sympathy of the com- munity is extended to the fam- ilies of the late Murray Baker and the late Leona Parke. Hensall residents are reminded that "Tonight is the night!" for the Hensall Summer Active Challenge. The Town of Bow Island will be trying to have more people participate in physical activity than Hensall. Hensall residents should meet at the Hensall Village Hall for `Warm-ups' to be led by Reeve, Cecil Pepper. Also, residents should remember that they can register their partici- pation, even if they cannot make it out to the walk. Board discusses employment equity BY Michele Green SSP News Staff The local separate school board is hoping the employ- ment equity legislation will allow it to base its surveys on the Catholic community. At last Tuesday's meeting of the Huron -Perth Roman Cath- olic Separate School Board, trustees learned what the con- sortium of 16 boards, including itself, are doing to implement the provincial legislation. Once the consortium completes the framework, the boards will localize the plan to suit their needs. Janice Stankiewicz, of the Waterloo Region Roman Cath- olic Separate School Board told trustees that the legislation requires boards to survey their community to find out what percent of its population is made up of by women, people with disabilities, people of visible minorities and aboriginals. The board's employment equity plan would be based on the results of this survey. Dr. James Brown, director of education, said the board wants to survey the Catholic com- munity because that is the community it serves. Separate school boards are protected under the Human Rights Code and can hire only Catholic people as teachers. However, all other staff mem- bers cannot be refused employ- ment or promotion because of their religion. Stankiewicz outlined the legislation and what is required of the board. She also outlined some of the myths surrounding the legislation. "It levels out the playing field. It gives everyone accessi- bility to jobs if they are qual- ified," she said. There is a feeling that the legislation accommodates the minorities in the province. However, Stankiewicz said women, people with disabil- ities, people of visible minor- ities and aboriginals make up 70 per cent of the population. Boards across the province must have an employment equity plan in place by March 1996. The plan will cost the board 520,000. Stankiewicz said the process is much less costly than most think. However, Dr. Brown pointed out that there are significant costs, none of which are funded by the government which requires the plan. He said it has taken a signifi- cant amount of time from Gates Blanchette, superintendent. His regular work has been set aside or passed onto other staff mem- bers to complete. Blanchette said it is fortunate that he was not involved in the bargaining process with union groups or he would not have had time to deal with it. "I'm not saying it's not worth doing. But I don't think some- one should think it's a low - cost item because it's not," said Dr. Brown. Stankiewicz said a change in government likely won't change the fact that a plan will be required. She said the progressive Conservatives say they put an end to the quotas in the legislation. She argued that there are no quotas. Instead, there are goals which are flex- ible and realistic based on the board, its community and other factors which may change. Throughout the campaign, the Liberals say they like the legis- lation but will amend the time frame, which is very stringent. "I think it's here to stay. But the way we do it may change" she said. ...FOR ALL YOUR CLEANING NEEDS...
