OCSTA Convention The staff of Clinton and District Christian odo�,v uao o-`�ralrc�l a¢�-.a CGD.Cae t �—o�— caster •on October 23 and 24, for the annual Ontario Christian School Teachers' Associa- tion convention. The new facilities of Redeemer College served well for this occasion. The conven- tion theme, Refreshed in the Lord, was well developed in the foundational address entitl- ed, Teaching Them to Obey and given by Rev. D. Pierik of University of Toronto campus. This inspirational address reminded teachers of the refreshing power of the Lord needed to carry out their calling as Chris- tian educators. Workshops, given both days, were in- strumental in sharing ideas old and new for the classroom. The staff attended a variety of sessions, including topics such as remedial, programs, poetry writing, art, music, Bible teaching, handling stress, French, and curriculum writing. CDCS teachers found these workshops informative and stimulating. A feeling of fellowship is strongly apparent at gatherings of this kind. Together they were indeed "refreshed" Judge John McGarry, Chairman of the Board of Directors, Epilepsy Ontario of the Mid - Western Region, and Marl Vere of the Huron -Bruce -Perth Chapter, were on hand for the Chapter's major fund raising event on November 5.

Miss' Lesley Buchanan and a friend from Grant will offset cost of Colborne book The organization responsible for the pro- duction of Colborne Connections (1836 to 1986), the 448 -page history book published forthe townships',recent sesquicentennial, has "received a grant• of , $ L5,000 from the Ministry of Citizens$ip and Culture. Pro- vincial Cabinet Minister Murray Elston announced the grant Nov. 8, at a gathering of the Colborne Township Sesqicentennial Committee at the Saltford Valley Hall. The grant will offset part of the costs of printing, researching and editing, said Shirley Hazlitt, who along with Phyllis Pitblado co -edited the book. The printing alone, cost $44,000 for the 2,000 copies printed, Hazlitt said, adding the book has been selling very well at $30 per copy. One of the factors, in obtaining "such a large grant," said Hazlitt, was that the book contains a selection of photographs by pioneer photographer Reuben Sallows, which gave the project an important heritage perspective.
