The Huron -Perth County Roman Catholic Separate Shool Board has established a committee to review a proposed Aids Education Committee program. The program, produced by the Institute for Catholic Education, will be offered in- itially to Grade 7 and 8 pupils. It is designed to help children understand the causes of Aids and how the disease can be prevented through sexual abstinence. It stresses the need to treat Aids victims with compassion. A program for secondary students will start after Christmas. • Members of the review committee are Rev. John Sharp of Stratford, dean of the Huron -Perth deanery; director of education William Eckert; Rev. John Finn of Kinkora; board chaplain: three trustees, vice-chairman Ernest Vanderschet of St. Marys; Michael Moriarty of Bayfield; and John Devlin of Stratford; Denis Mackay, religious education, family life consultant; Yet to be appointed are two teachers and four parents. It was first intended to have two parents on the committee but trustees decided having more "might diffuse any problems we might have". Trustee Vincent McInnes of Wingham asked the separate school board to keep up- to-date on the Aids curriculum being presented in the public high schools to en- sure "morals and abstinence from sexual intercourse is included". He said, •`If not, we should be concerned about our children and what they have to sit through." Director of Education William Eckert. said the board should obtain a copy of the public school literature concerning Aids for discussion. Education on Aids is compulsory in all On- tario schools at the Grade 7 and 8 level and in all high school grades. The Aids Education committee will have its first meeting on October 23. Public meetings will be held in January and February to acquaint parents with the program. In other business the board approved pay- ing the annual premium of $38,769 plus in- crease of $1,278 due to increase in property values for the board's insurance coverage. The board will redecorate and replace the furniture in the board room in Dublin at a cost of $30,000. It is to be completed in December. The present office furniture will be used in areas where it is needed in system. - To facilitate the busing of students, St. James School, Seaforth, will close for dismissal at 3:30 pm with morning classes starting at 8:55 am, morning recess 10:30-10:45, lunch 11:55-1:00, and afternoon recess 2:20 pm to 2:35 pm.

President Keith Roulston said his group would be providing elementary schools in Huron with a packet on the early history of our county, pick up history facts from older citizens and produce an historical map of Huron. . Past president Joe Hogan also com- mented on the upcoming projects. He said, "The school package of resources could in- clude deeds and accounts of frontier life, there are plenty of older people with vivid memories of life in Huron and the map would show what we consider to he historic attractions." Ed Oddleifson of Bayfield reported that Streetscapes of Huron were available from himself and Gwen Pemberton, also of Bayfield. They were prepared by Nick Hill. Guest speaker Dorothy Duncan who is ex- ecutive director of the Ontario Historical Society outlined the history of her group which was established in 1888. A special Pioneer and Old Settlers Day at the Industrial Exhibition in Toronto in 1888 was the beginning. She added, "Our students knew more about history of the United States than they did of Canada and there was no place to send artifacts, no real repository or archives." One of the first and biggest challenges fac- ed by the Society was a plan by the city of Toronto to bring a street railway down Bathhurst Street right through Fort York. It took nine years to win that battle, but Fort York is still secure. The first provincial shov8 of archives was held in 1902 with a catalogue of 150 pages of artifacts from all over the country. It was scheduled for a couple of days, but lasted three weeks. Admission was 10 cents. The speaker continued, "The University of Toronto faculty lobbied for an interna- tional and Royal Ontario Museum, but we still do not have a provincial rnuseurn." The two world wars had a devastating ef- fect on the historical society, but 1967 Centennial celebrations brought out literal- ly hundreds of museums. The executive director added, "We are still seeing a prolific number of museums and Van Egmond House in Seaforth is a good example. Ontario is eking a better job of restoration than anyone else in the world. We are honest about our history." The biggest project this year for the pro- vincial group is a Folk Lore conference. Folk Lore is everything we do, music, dance, stories, songs, books. clothing, etc. York University has begun archives on the history of food. Drs. L. LaPlante J.
