(Florence) Elliott, Secretary Charles Thomas, second vice- president of the Huron County Federation, took advantage of the wonderful opportunity to attend the Provincial Folk School, which was held at the Geneva Park Residential Edu- cation Centre on Lake Couchi- ching from October 14-20. Changing conditions in our communities present a chal- lenge which can only be met by an intensive program > of adult education, This conclu- sion was the result of discus- sions on the theme, "You and Your Community," at the Sec- ond Ontario Provincial Folk School. ' At atmosphere created by liv- ing, working and playing to- gether for six days enabled the participants in the Folk School to look objectively at changing conditions in various kinds •of communities.

Other officers elected were: associate representative, Mrs. Delmer Skinner, RR 1, Centra- lia (Exeter Fair); and secre- tary -treasurer, Mrs. Howard Smith, RR 1, Listowel. Each of the 14 fairs in the district Were represented and submitted re- ports of the progress and ac- tivities of her fair, including the women's and all junior ac- tivities. Nine fairs in the district had sponsored the Ethel Brant Mon- ture essay competition. These nine essays are now being judged, with the one winning essay to be entered in the pro- vincial competition.

The provisional board dissolved last Friday af- ter passing a resolution request- ing Ontario Minister of Agricul- ture Stewart to ask the federal government to set up a Royal Commission . to investigate all phases of the dairy industry in Canada. This capped a week of hectic activity"' in dairy circles including the provincial govern- ment's announcement of a mor- atorium on the milk price formula announced recently that would allo-w an increase of 19 cents a hundredweight to to Ottawa.

All the confu- has a vexing dairy situation sion, misunderstanding a n d within its own boundaries and just plain, bullheaded stub- bornness in some quarters cer- tainly points to the necessity of something that could clear the air.

There are 38 quarts in of Agriculture November 12th a cwt. of milk. However, other and one might expect him to factors would justify the price say something about it then. One might also expect him to receive the recommendation favorably. Ottawa has been pushing the provinces of On- tario and Quebec for some ac- tion to help solve the dairy problem and Agriculture Min- ister Hamilton put it plainly to producers recently. Mr. Stew- art pressed Ontario producers into action soon after he took office last winter and the pro- visional board was officially formed May 1st this year. In its six months, it has achieved little and now it no longer ex- ists. too dfstent future, AM gpvern- meat would want to act hastily on such an involve4;- problem as that posed by the dairy In- dustry—nor should they. So, a thorough= airing of the situa- tion which might be expected from a federal Royal Commis- sion could be welcomed by Mr. Stewart. Similarly, Mr. Hamil- ton could be facing the elector- ate at any time and might also welcome this action. On the other hand, his situation—pol- itically—is somewhat different. Quebec, the other major dairy province, is in the midst of an election with no possibility of electing a government friendly also a government that is not noted for co-operation with Ot- tawa. We don't envy Mr. Ham- ilton his job; Ontario government action on Miss Eileen Hession, of Bay- field, who operates Fair Acres Studio there, spoke on "A place is only as fine as the art it produces," and had on display several posters acquired in Europe, Asia and, Africa while on flying assignments there. In addition, she displayed several posters that had been entered in a competition at the Bay- field Fair. These posters, 36 inches high and 24 inches wide, are along the line of publicity in nature. For example, the winning poster was the work of Mrs. R. M. Peck, of Hensall, showing a typical street corner there and bearing .the caption, "Hensall—A Pleasant' Place To Live." These posters may be. done in any media, and it is hoped that several fairs in this district will sponsor such a competition, with the hope that perhaps such local organiza- tions as the Chambers of Com- merce will join in the effort. In addition to being an artist and teacher of art, Miss Hes- sion is a registered nurse and a musician of note. She is a native of London, Ont.

Un- doubtedly, a Royal Commission would examine this price form- ula. Just to make things- very merry last week, the Ontario Cheese Producers Marketing Board presented a brief to the minister asking for revisions in the milk industry act that would, in effect, remove the protective sections, for the fluid producers. It is not this simple but might be interpreted as requesting that any milk mar- ket be open to any milk pro- ducer who could meet quality standards.

Presi- dent Harold S. Turner, Gode- rich, chaired the event, and in his remarks stated: "The threshers' reunion held in Blyth Sept. 7 and 8 was a decided success and created a much greater interest in mus- eums and antiques. It proved we needed a Pioneer Thresh- ers' and Hobby Association, and the reunion was a grand time to get together. It also proved that men are just grown-up boys, and no matter what you are interested in, you can find kindred spirits." >;t was decided to hold the 1963 reunion in Blyth recrea- tional centre, at approximately the same time, esrly Set3tem ber, and will be a bigger and better show.
