Keller There is a real possibility that a teaching homemaker will be en- gaged in Huron County under the direction of the Social Services Committee Chairman Ervin Sillery said the three main duties' of a teaching homemaker would be to supervise the individual homemakers hired by the Social Services Committee on a con- tract basis; to be available for homemaking on an emergency basis (for example nights and weekends') ; and to carry a home- making caseload similar to the regular field.workers from Social Services, specifically to work with housewiveS and mothers in need of advice concerning house - Chalmers observes 111th uniformity WHITECHURCH--The 'Chal- mers Presbyterian Church cele- brated its 111th anniversary on Sunday with special morning and evening services and a guest speaker, Rev.

" "In some cases more is re- quired than just a hand-out Of money," Mr. Sillery's report stated. "A teaching homemaker should be able to improve the, ing long term assistance by 'teaching budgeting, shopping skills, meal planning, etc: This should ensure that the money is. being spent more wisely and for the benefit of all members of the family." County councillors learned that a middle-aged person with plentY of experienee in the homemaking field plus' ccimmon sense and the ability to work with people\ in all walks of life would be the tkpe of person hired as a teaching home- maker. The initial salary would depend on past experience and education and would have to be in line with the•presentsalary range for field workers. 'Should a teaching homemaker be hired, the salary , and all expenses in connection with the work would be sUbsi- diz,ed by the Province of Ontario John Tinney, chairman of the board of manageMent at Huron - view, anncfunced that June 15 to 21 is Senior Citizens' Week.

She extended thanks to the principals she taught for in London and especially mentioned the late Ford Steadman, Miss Margaret Brown, Rhlph Lucas and John Blackwell. After 311/2 years of teaching Mrs. Earls said she is looking for- ward to her retirement. She said it will be a new adventure with new experiences, new places to go and new friends to meet. In closing Mrs. Earls gave a profit- able lesson to all when she quoted King George VI: "I said to the man whOtoo. d at the gate of the year, "Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown," and he said, "Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God and that shall be to you better. than light and safer than . the known way." With this faith and understand- ing Mrs. Earls' retirement.will be a most fulfilling and enjoyable time in her new life ahead. All the best wishes- go to a remarkable teacher and truly wonderful per- son from her co-workers, friends and former pupils.
