PARR LINE FORUM The Parr Line Farm Forum met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. How- ard Adkins on Monday, Oct. 31. for their first meeting of the 1955-56 season, with 20 members present. The topic for the meeting was "Teacher Shortage Hits All Can- ada." After listening to the radio broadcast, the officers for the com- ing year were elected. John Sol- dan, Charles Robinson and Wilfred Mousseau were nominated for president. John. Soldan was re- turned to this office by ballot. Mrs. John Soldan, Mrs. Gordon Coleman and Stewart Blackwell were nom- inated for secretary. Mrs. Gordon Coleman was elected by ballot to replace Wilfred Mousseau, who has held this office for the past two • • -go, •, years. The forum was then divided into two groups and all retired for the discussion: Question: What do you think should be done by par- ents,"your school board, your muni- cipal government, your provincial government, the federal govern- ment to relieve the teacher short- age? Answers: (a) Co-operation between the parents, pupils and teacher would give encouragement to the teacher and help ease her responsibilities. Parents could en- courage their children to become teachers. We also believe a P.T.A. organization in the rural schools would be helpful to both teachers and their pupils. (b) The school boards in regards to school areas should make sure there is a re- presentative for every school sec- tion. They should try to make the schools more attractive and mod- ern. (c, d, e) We think these may all be answered the same way. The governments could possibly give more grants and scholarships to help the teachers become better equipped, thus encourage teachers into country schools and give help to young people who wish to be- come teachers but cannot because of finances. Question 2: 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 eould take more in- terest 'in the activities in their school and could possibly sponsor things like Christmas concerts and will address the Huron Presbytery parties to help the teacher along.

The next meeting will he held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Gor- ileimeXelemae here—the-4.opie-lor diselissitnt- be, ' "Fire 'on. -the Farm." • • •HULLETT FARM FORUM ' The Fireside Farm Forum met Monday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dalton, with 26 adults and many children pres- ent. The meeting took the form of a Hallowe'en masquerade and ev- eryone attended dressed in varied costumes,, which greatly added to the enjoyment of the evening. Topic under discussion was, "Teachers. or Sitters." The first question was, "What do you think should be done by parents, your school board, your municipal gov- ernment, your provincial govern- ment and the federal government to relieve the teacher shortage?" In answer to this, the forum thought that parents should make the teachers welcome in their homes and community by special invitation. They should discipline their children at home and see that they have sufficient sleep and have a friendly feeling toward the teach- er. They also felt that parents should give their children advanc- ed training in high school, so that more of the children could become teachers if they wished. Parents should also help their children with their studies. School boards should pay ade- quate wages and provide suitable boarding homes or living quarters, and they should have attractive schools. Municipal governments could as- sist by giving scholarships and pa-Ang., for -bus trips-.-for,education, al purpeseee 'and itlicied areas. Scholarships could be .provided by the provincial governments to enable more of the children from poorer families to become teach- ers and help boards by increasing grants for rural schools. The federal government might assist with grants, especially for new school buildings. The second question discussed was, "What can rural communities and interested groups, such as Wo- men's Institutes. Farm Forums and Home and School Associations do to help overcome the teacher shortage?" In reply to this, the forum felt that Home and School groups should be encouraged in the rural areas, and teachers should be in- vited to the meetings and made feel like one of the crowd. Wo- men's Institutes and Federations of Agriculture can show interest in the teacher and his work by sponsoring music .festivals. The forum agreed that not ev- eryone would make a good teacher in spite of training and scholar- ships. Several games were played, fol- lowed by lunch. Next week's meeting will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Babcock. REFORMATION RALLY SERVICE FEATURE AT ST.

Dublin and Logan attended the annual district rally which was held in St. James' Church. Seaforth, Sunday, Oct. 30, I when they heard Rev. Father O'Kane S.F M., Toronto. speak on the theme. "Do This in Commem- oration of Me," Father O'Kane's sermon dwelt mainly with the institution of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, its va- lue and benefit in daily attend- ance. He pointed out that in this way a measure of satisfaction in the appeasement of the many sins of mankind would be obtained and more so with daily attendance at I Mass the world over. When Jesus ! offered Himself in atonement on Calvary on Good Friday for the sins of the world, and when at the Last Supper He changed bread and wine into His Body ond Blood, He told His Apostles they were to "do this in commemoration of Me." He meant they were to offer up the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, not in the bloody manner that He was offering up, but in an unbloody manner, and that it was to be of- fered daily throughout the world until the end of time. At three o'clock the parade form- ed at Victoria Park and marched up Victoria Street to the church, where St. James' Society formed, a guard of honor, allowing the guest members, carrying their in- dividual banners, to enter the church first. Led by Rev. Father J. J. Mc - Cowell, of St. Columban, the mem- bers repeated the Litany of the Holy Name of Jesus. Following this the pledge was taken by all, present and was given by Rev. ll J. B.
