On August 28 and 29 the
Centralia College of
Agricultural Technology
presented "Directions", a
conference for women living
in rural areas. Mrs. Lois
Elliott was the only Clinton
lady in attendance, among
110 others. Key -note speaker
was Laura Sabia, well known
for the various roles she has
played in women's rights.
She emphasized that, while
most women have an active
part in running a farm, they
will not be entitled to a
portion of it under the law if
it is in their husband's name
because it is consdiered a
business.
Lois found the two day
seminar both thought
provoking and enlightening.
On September 3 Lois
joined her husband, Cecil
and both visited Beamsville
where they visited with Mrs.
Dorothy Elliott of Albright
Manor and also the Rev.
