The Seaferth fire department was on the scene for three hours.

The Seaforth and area fire department was called to the farm of Bill Devereaux, lot 19, concession two, McKillop township at 1:40 a.m. A barn holding 200 pigs was engulfed in ,flames when the department arrived. Firemen remained on the scene for three hours. The fire is still being investigated. A cause and estimate of loss has not been determined. This was the third alarm answered by the department in less than a week. Earlier, firemen were called to Kinburn, north-west of Seaforth on Wed. Sept. 14. No fire was evident. The matter is being treated as a false alarm. A false alarm on Fri. Sept. 16 at 3:00 p.m. is due to malfunction in the fire phones. The failure has since been corrected. Plan single parent A bridge from social assist- ance dependency to self-suf- ficiency for single parents may beestarting in Stratford in January of 1984. Perth County social ser- vices administrator Debbie Ballak said a program en- titled "Focus for Change" may be started at the Strat- ford campus of Conestoga College. The program will bea, one i shot 1 Week full day course which will have three compo- nents, said Ms. Ballak. Basic math and English skills will be taught plus life skills. Life skills will focus on dealing with "self-image and self confidence", said the social services administrator, Resume writing and role- playing in the job interview process will also be part of the life skills aspect.. "It's a practical program, there are no heady ideas," added Ms. Ballak. There will also be a "hands on" work experience avail- able or else career observa- tion. As an example, the administrator said if a person in the program wanted to be a social worker, they could accompany a social services worker during her work day, getting a feel for, the task. There will be additional costs to social service', to place people in the program, but Ms. Ballak points out the long term benefits outweigh short term costs. In a hypothetical situation, for a woman with two children it would cost social services about $1,610 for transporta- • tion and day care for four months. On top of that would be the general welfare allow- ance of $1,816. But, if the woman went off assistance for just four months after the program, the program CornMer workshops for HPRCSS teachers The Sept. 23 professional activity day for Huron and Perth separate school teach- ers entitled Computers in The Classroom will be held at St. Michael's School, Stratford. Teachers will be able to select from a number of workshops that will provide both a "hands on" session with a micro -computer, as well as a more theoretical session. During the fall of 1981 and the winter of 1982, approxi- mately 20 per cent of the teaching staff participated in a Board sponsored introduc- tory course to computers. "A lot of development and training has already taken place in this area. A board committee has been in exist- ence for almost a year provid- ing direction and we are gearing up to begin the actual task of writing guidelines for teachers in the class room. We currently have at least one computer in each ele- mentary school and it . is expected the number will increase during the 1984-85 school year," said director of education William Eckert. He added "in terms of hardware, software and pro- gram development, our ef- forts are beginning to show results. It is of interest to note that in a number of schools because of teacher effort and student interest, computer literacy and basic program- ming skills already exist." program attendance costs would be recovered. The main criteria for en- trance into the program are a single parent on social assist- ance. The person has to be referred either through com- munity and. social services (family benefits) or municipal social assistance. Other cri- teria include a person with little or no history of employ- ment'aitd with .no specified job skills or+training. Perth County Council ap- proved supporting the pro- gram and is forwarding a letter to the Stratford Canada Employment Centre which is to purchase seat space at the college. Other municipal sup- port is being sought as Ms. Ballak visits each one. The "Focus for Change" program is being offered at 17 of the 22 community colleges across the province. The program has an 80 to 85 per cent success rate of getting people off assistance. Ms. Ballak notes the cur- rent program is similar to the Basic Job Readiness Training program which concluded about five years ago. There is a need for such a program. points out Ms. Ballak stating there are 360 single parent families on social assistance in Perth County including Stratford and St. Marys. The only problem is there will only be IS seats available for the program. Correspondent MRS. H.
