' - . .
When the Colleges of. Applied
.Arta were established all people
in • Ontario looked forward to
greatly increased educational,
:Opportunities. Areas were
defined and organizations of
Boards of Gpvernors and
Administrative and teaching
staffs were formed. In Area
14, compriSing the connties of
Huron, Perth, Waterloo, and
' Wellington, Conestoga College
Vas established.
' TV the initial period, Con-
estoga embarked 'oil an educat-
ional programme to meet the
needs for technologists and tech-
nicians with courses which ex-
tended on a full time basis over
one, two and three years.Most
'of the students for these courses
are immediate graduates of
Grades• .12 and 13 who wish post-
secondary education but who may
not qualify for or desire to at-
tend universities. In Area 14,
the largest numbers of these
students were in the more dense-,
- ly populated area identified by
the cities of Galt, Guelph and
Kitchener-Waterloo
and it was logical that the- ,
lege shouldestablish its preA
,01
nce
first in proximity to these
cities. Consequently, buildings
were constructed at Doon and a
programme was commenced. In
excess of 1,000 students are talc-
ing full-time courses.
The second phase of Cones-
toga commenced 'with the amal-
gamation 'with manpovier retrain-
--'''ing Centres at Stratford, Galt,
Guelph and ,Kitchener-Waterloo.
Amalgamation with Kitchener-
Waterloo was made on Decem-
ber 1, 1969, so, that -this ,phase
has only recently been completed.
Immediately following amalga-
mation,' the Manpower Centres
were renamed Adult or Contin-
uing EducationCentres, and steps
were taken to expand' the pro-
grammes, In each case the
emphasis was placed. on the
development of courses which
would meet the specific needs
of individuals, local business and
industry and the community.
The next phase in the growth
of ConeStoga in Area 14 will
- involve the • establishment of

CAROL SINGING
On December 23rd the Second
Seaforth Brownie Pack went out
Carol singing. We visited the
honieS of elderly ladies and
gentlemen and were accompan-
ied by Mrs. Maidens, ".drown
Owl; , Mrs. Pattenson, Tawny
Owl; MrS. Racho, 'rweeny Owl
-and Mrs. Upshall, Snowy Owl:
We presented each lady with
hanky made into a corsage
andto each man we gave a hanky
• which was decorated to look like
a cigar. At one home, the Brown-
, ies were each given a piece of
delicious homemade candy.
• ' We hope these folks enjoyed
4Olir singing as much as we en-
joyed visiting their.

learning centres la communit-
ies--which are not being served
adequately. There are two such
communities - one is Huron
County and the other is an area
comprising the nothern parts of
the Counties of Wellington,Wat-.
erioo and Perth. When hese
are established there will be
six Continuing Education-Centres
in the four counties and this
should mean that educational re-
sources will- be convenient to
all persons.
• The Conestoga presence in
Huron County will be developed
in a mariner suited to the needs.
The first step must be -taken
by the College and this is being
done by appointing a person to
work full time at developing
courses and by locating that per-
son in an office in-the County.
This person will be called the
Administrator for Continuing Ed=
ucation in Huron County. He or
she will embark on a twofold
effort. The needs of individuals
must be found and met. This will
be achieved by establishing coun-
selling services. From the direct
contacts with individuals, efforts
will be made fo establish courses
to help each person. At the same
time, relationships must. be
established with people • In"
business and industry, people'
concerned with attracting new
business and industry and com-
munity Organizations. Com-
mittees of citizens must. be
formed to help.
The objective will be to
establish an educatiOnal resource
in Huron County tailored to meet
local needs. The support of the
Doon Campus and "other re-
sources will be available.
It is difficult to define the
educational programme except
to state that it falls between
Grades 12 and 13 and the univer-,
sities, includes courses not given
in night school, and includes short
'courses' designed to help indi-
viduals achieve Specific skills.
The population density.in the
County is such that a small
number of people may wish to take
one course. It is ,anticipated that
the numbers may be so small
that teacher cannot be engaged
to, be present all of the time.
mrs problem will -be overcome,'
in part, with the use of . other
instructional media. such as
television, film strips and pro-
grammed learning. It is possible
to, reduce the time that teachers
Spend with students. It is not
possible to complete the -learn-
ing exercise without a teacher.
The importance of eduCational
resources to support indtistrial
and community development has
been demonstrated• many times.
Conestoga can take the first step
in providing a resource for Huron.
County,.. but the fully and ef-
ficient use .of the resource will
be..achiekied only by the Huron
Community working with the
Conestoga Community.

DEAR DORIS When, I
become president of our church
club, I would like to make them
interested in what goes on at
the meeting, instead of them'
talking to one another about
someone's appendix or how to
make jams and jellies in the
middle of the business session.
At the end, of• my term I'd
like to hand this thankless job to
someone else with a feeling Of
satisfaction. What can you tell
me about being a good president ?,
-INEXPERIENCED BUT KEEN
DEAR I.-BUT K. - It's a big
job to put• in a small nutshell,
'but here goes:
1. Involves them. The more
members actually doing some-
thing about the meeting, the few-
er will be having a-jam session.
2. Read up on how to con-
duct a meeting. I'm sending you
the names of two good books about
it. • •
3. Have regular executive
meetings.. so. that _program plans
are well thought out in advance.
4. Have a project. Do some-
thing for somebody else.
5. President presides. A
president does, not 14 down the
. A president draws out the
o inions and ideas of all persons
present and -pays serious
attention to everyone's ideas.
6. If possible, have• all im-
portant meetings reported either
in the church newsletter or the
local press. I-am sending you my
leaflet on Pointers in Regoliihg
Meetings (Available to other
readers for 10 cents and a
stamped, self-addressed en- .
velope.)
DEAR DORIS - Do you have
ahy knowledge concerning the
drug now _being perteakl ,in
the United States which can raise
the intelligence quotient?
•• B. M.
DEAR B.M. -- Perhaps you've;
been reading about the work being
done on a drug which the scient-
ists hope will ,,eventually be used
to improve the minds of senile
people. This is still years away,
even if it works.
And it is something quite
different from improving the
intelligence level of anybody.We
are born with certain potentials,
and develop through education
and experience. But-each .has
his . oWn, particular and special
talents and limits. •
DEAR DORIS 4 We kept our
son's little boy a month while
they ..went holidaying last sum--
mer. When they came back, they
left 'us sitting in the house and
went off to see her- mother.,
The next time we visited them
she went to bed and watched
-TV at 8 p.m. ,
Then we were invited over
and at 9 p.m. 'they went- to a
party withopt asking 'Us to baby-.
sit or anytitig; -just took off.
So we, haven't been back-since.
We never go uninvited and that's
