Home My WebLink AboutThe Goderich Signal-Star, 1956-03-29, Page 6f 10140i)ERICH SIGNMATAR THURSRAY, MARAPI-1 29012 MI5 Women's Coltman 8Y MARY GUEST Tvventy-seven women promised to attend the inaugural eeting of the lusiness and Professional. Women's Club on Sunday last, and how many actually turved up? Eight! Eight women of the 37 who had actually promised. Eight women of the several hundred eligible in this town. Eight women in all this town were curious and enthusiastic and energetic enough to attend the inaugural meeting. Eight women!' • The women of Goderich should feel very proud of them, selves! They would apparently rather fritter their time away -uselessly .on bake sales and teas and bazaars than attempt something that would be really beneficial to this town and to our country. During the past three weekSil have tried, in this column, to indicate the extent of the political apathy among the women of this town and to draw your attention to the results of this apathy. That this column is notread—or that if it is read it is ignored—is now quite obvious. Not one single woman who reads the Goderich Signal -Star has ever taken pen in hand to agree or disagree with me—and only eight of all the women who take the paper bothered to attend that meeting. Oh yes, I know you belong to clubs and church groups and associations-, but I wonder how much useful and practical work you have undertaken in these groups to better conditions locally or nationally? Are you angry at my remarks? I hope you are—I sincere- ly hope that you are very angry. I hope you are angry enough to DO something constructive, but knowing Goderich, I very much doubt it. Here are some of the aims of the Business and Profes- sional Women's Clubs: To awaken and encourage in business and professional women a realization of their responsibilities in their own country and consequently in world affairs. To raise the standards of education and training for business and professional women. To obtain jury service for women. To grant United Nations Fellowships. To encourage women to take their places in public office. To promote good government locally. To be an active, constructive force in the community, co-operating with other worthwhile organizations. Those are some of the aims of this Association. There are other associations with similar aims I know, but this was the group that sent a representative to Goderich to help us form our own club. I do not know why Mrs. Armstrong -Collins chose to come here: Perhaps she had heard of the lethargy that prevails, but she could not have guessed the extent of our disinterest. We are worse than cabbages—for cabbages are stuck in the. ground and they have no brains. We have both brains and legs, but we make very poor use of them. Perhaps we will wake up before it is too late. See you next:week! BADGES WON BY GIRL in play. Iligh scores were i..J by. GUIDES WHO PASS TESTS Mrs. C. Crozier and Bill low.
