SS 4 FARM FORUM
(By Mrs. J. Merrill)
The SS No. 4 Goderich, Town-
ship Fa= Fern= met at the
one of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Lobb
for the first meeting of the 1955-
56 season. The radio topic for
discussion was "Teacher Shortage
• Hite All Canada,"
It was decided that parents
should encourage children to con-
sider teaching as a profession;
also teach children to respect the
teacher and her authority, and to
cc -operate' with, rather than hind-
er her. The school board should
stebilize a salary scale so a teach-
er may have a reasonable emir-
ance of an adequate salary for
some years to come. '
The municipal government
night provide scholarships for
loCal students; provincial goveen-
melts might provide scholarships
for those entering teachers' col-
leges. The federal government
might standardize necessary qual-
ifications for teachers' certificates
over the dominion..
: Rural communities and inter-.
eSted groups could help overcome
the teacher shortage by inviting
the local teacher to. donunimity
activities, make her feel a necee-
sary part of the community, be
Willing to co-operate with her,
rather than criticize her.
There" was a recreati4 period,
when a few games of "500" were
played. Lunch was eerved by the
hostess assisted by,the ladies. The
next meeting will be at the home
Of Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Thompson.
PARR LINE )FORUM
(By our Mensal correspondent)
The Parr Line Farm Forum
met at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Howard Adkins, on Monday, Oc-
tober 31 for the first nesting of
•
the 1955-56 season, with 20 mem-
bers present. The topic for this
meeting was "Teacher Shortage
Hits All Canada,"
Officers for the coming year
were elected as follows: John Sol-
dan, president; Mrs. Gordon Cole-
man was elected by "ballot to re-
place Wilfred lVfousseau, as secre-
tary, who has held this office for
the past two years.
Question: What do you think
should be done by parents, your
school board, your municipal gov-
ernment, your provincial govern-
ment, the federal government, to
relieve the teacher shortage?
Answers: Co-operation between
the parents, pu.pils, and teacher
would give encouragement to the
teacher and help ease her respon-
sibilities. Parents could encourage
their children tO beciane,teachers.
The forum also believe a PTA or-
ganization in the rural schools
would be 'helpftil to both teachers
and their pupils. •
The school boards in regards to
school areas should make sure
there is w representative for every
school section. They should try
to make the schools more attrac-
tire and modern. The goverxo
malts could possibly give more
grants and scholarships to help
the teachers become better equip-
ped, thus encouragingteachers
into country schools and eve help
to young people who wish to be-
come teachers but cannot because
of finances.
Question: What can rural com-
munities and interested groups
such as Women's Institutes, farm
forums, women's school associa-
tions do to help overcome the
teacher shortage? •
Answer: • Rural organizations
could take more interest in the
activities in their school and. could
possibly spans or things like

FIRESIDE FORUM
(By Mrs. William Dolxnage)
The Fireside Farm' Poi -jun of
Hullett Township' vvas field at -the
home of Mr. 'and Mrs. Robert Dal-
ton with 26, adults and. quite a
ninnber of 'children in attendance.
Despite numerous ghostly: and
ghastly interruptions, they were
able to come to some definite
conclusions in the discussion per-
iod.
Parents could make the teacher
welcome to the community by in-
viting her for supper or a week-
end. They could encourage them
to ehe teachers and help them
with lessons., Children should be
properly trained at home and not
entirely by the teacher. The
school board should pay an attrac-
tive salary and keep the school
modern. A home could be pro-
vided for a married teacher, sim-
ilar to a manse for a minister.
The municipal government could
pay fare for bus trips, a form of
education. The province could
help pay the way for needy pupils
desiring normal school training.
The federal government could
help with grants to build schools,
especially consolidated schools.
Where the Women's Institutes
meet in the evening, invite the
tea,cher to be a fellow member
and not always be expected to
take office. Invite them to the
forums. The trustees could call
a ratepayers' meeting to form a
Home and School Association.
This acquaints parents, pupils and
teacher at one time.
Several Hallowe'en games, in-
stead of euchre, were enjoyed, un-
der the direction of Mrs. Bert
Hoggart. Ghosts, goblins, tramps,
etc., kept the evening quite lively,
but they didn't stay far the delic-
ious lunch served by the hostess.
The next meeting is to be at Mrs.
Joseph Babcock's home.

Hog Controversy
Strong Over Co-op
• (Continued from Page One)
nouncement ' distributed to all
members of the Livestock Trans-
portation Division of the 'Auto-
motive Transport Association of
Ontario through their Members'
Bulletin over the signature of
their secretary, I. R. McLeod:
"Hog Licensing Valid --Truckers
Must Comply: Your Association
offices have leen besieged latterly
by queries from 'livestock tran-
porters as, to the validity of cur-
rent Hog" Marketing legislation
and the necessity of securing Ship-
pers Licences under, the Market-
ing Program." .
'Only the Legislature can enact
laws and regulations in those
spheresin which it has authority
to do go under -the British North
America . --Act. Recently the Gov-
ernment amended the Regulations
wider the Faxen Products Market-
ing Act for thepurpose of confer-
ring added authority to the Hog
Producers' Marketing 'Board to
direct hogs and to license 'all per-
sons who assemble, ship or trans-
port hogs for slaughter'."
'To the extent that current hog
marketing legislation reflects the
intent of the Goverru-nent — all
persons assembling, shipping or
transporting hog$ must Comply
with the requirements of the new
regulations. In this connection it
has been brought to our attention
that court action to test the valid-
ity of hoge marketing legislation
is being considered by hog pro-
ducer Theodore Parker, However,
it must be remembered that the
existing legislation' governing hog
marketing will remain the law of
the land unless and until it is
supplanted or further amended by
the Legislature."
Price May Go Down
"Hog prices this fall are likely
to decline to levels approaching
the support price of 23 cents."
This is the prediction of the
agricultural economics depart-
ment of the Ontario Agricultural
College hs the fall issue of its
publication, "Ontario Farm Busi-
ness."
In commenting on the hog situa-
tion, the publication points out
that the number of hogs slaught-
ered in Caneda was up 19 percent
in the period up to September 24
yet stocks of Pork were down over
ten percent at September 1. "The
reasons for this remarkable de-
velopment were: (a) greatly in-
creased domestic consumption,
and (b) an increase of about ten
percent in exports. At dune 1,
there were 18 percent more hogs
on farms in Canada than a yeal
earlier, and 13 percent more sows
were expected to farrow in the
June -September period this year
than last year."
Among Canadian manufacturing
industries, the garment industry
ranks first in, number of employ-
ees. The primary textile industry
formerly ranked first but the ris-
ing volume of textile imports has
reduced that industry to second
