CLINTON - Resolutions - Are they wor-
thwhile?
This was the question asked the members
of the Clinton Women's Institute (WI) at
their regular meeting held at the OMAF of-
fices on February 28. Resolutions were
thought to be very beneficial, as many of the
laws in Ontario have been improved or have
stemmed from the passing of a WI Resolu-
tion, which has reached provincial level and
has been adopted by the government.
WI President Lois Elliott brought final
details of the 80th Anniversary celebration
before the members. There will be a ban-
quet in the Hall of the Ontario Street United
Church, Clinton, on Wednesday, March 27.
Representatives will be present from other
branches in Huron West District. The guest
speaker will be Marcie Johnston, Secretary
of the Federated Women's Institutes of On-
tario, who will speak on "The Role of
Woman" in today's Society.
The Clinton Branch was formed in 1905
with Mrs. David French as president. Over
the years the Clinton Branch has assisted
with many local projects. It was through the
efforts of a'Late President Connie Colclough
that the Meals on Wheels program was
adopted by the local hospital. That and other
important projects have been an important
part of Women's Institute work.
Mrs. K. Kroesen was in charge of the pro-
gram which deal with resolutions. She dealt
with three important issues in today's socie-
ty - the need for more caution.in building for
Safety; e.g. the Carbide Plant and its hazar-
dous toll on lives in India; the need for
greater planning in raising enough food to
feed the people of the world in the future;
crime on the increase, and the slaying of In -
