Instead of presenting children with stories which ''are already publiShed in textbooks,' the philosophy behind the project is to let the students write their own stories. The children tell their story to, pne or the teachers, who records the tale.

Phillips •'r 1r -'3' (Continued from Page 1) registering with 'the Student Mimpower office in Coderia. Perry has already started work with College Pro Painters in London, a job he landed through student services at the -university, when he learned of the Young Canada Works opening. Job Experience Since he "hopes to go into honors business administration next year, and part of his duties 'as project manager on the reading program involve keeping the books, Perry decided the job experience might help his chances of being accepted into the business program. Tracey found Western's student services had fewer jobs for women, and she applied for various tourist-related jobs in this - 'area. However, she found re- staurants are deinanding that students they hire as waitresses have past restaurant experience. Tracey, a first year nursing student at university, had worked in Kilbarchan Nursing Home last summer, and applied to a number of hospitals for a similar job this summer,. She found that hospital jobs were usually part-time in nature„ and had already been taken by high school students. -Jeanette- Finnigan said- this- year the Student Manpower office is finding post-secondary re- gistration are down by 25 per cent. Although it's difficult to pin • point the cause, she said when , the job market gets tighter, these students may start looking for work earlier or may work in the cities where they are attending school. This year, her office had trouble finding enough post secondary students to fill positions on some of the earlier' projects which came through the offiBcuet. JUP.33 Per Cent - While post-secondary re- gistation has dropped; secondary school registration have increased by 33 per cent. • Ms. Finnigan said many of these students registered at 'the office during this winter's teachers' strike in Huron County- When. ,the two figures are combined,, overall student re- gistration at the office increased by16 per cent this year over last. Tracey said• her Big Brothers' job involves going to municipal offices in the four towns they are working in, fording out the local service clubs and- informing them of the program and approaching ' doctors, lawyet:s, public health nurses and other people they know in the community. The girls have already,held one public meeting in Gederich and have another one coming up in Clinton on July 12. They will be holding a public meeting in Seaforth later in the summer. Pilot Project Perry said his project, which works out of Clinton Public School, is really a pilot, project which will be implemented in c, S Teacheets college in the fall and the other students, both studying psychology, plan to teach eventually. The month of June was spent in training sessions„ conducted by Pon Kiellor and Dr,'Tony Miller of the Huron Centre for Children and Youth, The classes for students started-this week and continue until mid-August. • Although Tracey and her co- worker are now trying to recruit a board of directors far . or- ganizations in , the four towns, they'll also soon be looking for boys to match with the big brothers'. The big brothers must be prepared to make a committment of one year and agree to spend three to four hours a week with their little brother on a regular basis. Tracey said one of the duties of the screening chairman on each organization's board of directors will be to interview potential big brothers to find if they're really interested in the well being of the children or whether they're only trying to fill their own needs by volunteering. The little brothers are those between the age of six and 16 years who lack a continuing male influence in their lives. s, Tracey said only two mat hes are need to start an organiz tion iri a community. The Exeter ig Brothers organization operating now with six mate s, and have run their agency or over a year. 12 Weeks ' — Tracey's Big Brother project will last for 12 weeks and Perry's reading project for 10 weeks.

The one area where this hasn't proved true is in public sector jobs. Last year, 11' students .worked in Huron County municipal offices but this :year, following cutbacks only three students have been employed in the public sector. Although many students won't be able to find jobs quite as , challenging as Tracey or Perry, the Student Manpower office is continuing-to-make, job -referrals `to the end of September. perience, Vincent, assisted by Mayor Robert Blair of Zorra Township, turned the sod on Wednesday of last weeltolauneh D j Vincent is at the controls of a four-wheel drive t , jr which was used to break the.sod on the site of a w Vincent, dealership to serve Oxford County. F. lg with Doug are his father, Warren Vincent, a-' his grandmother, Mrs. L. C. Vincent who or Vincent Farm Equipment Ltd. with -her h 'land over 55 years ago. Representing the third -ration in the business, Doug Vincent will run the oehip. a fourth Vincent Farm equipment dealership. When completed later this year, the new $ 1/4 million' facilities will occupy 'a t0. acre site along the new extension of Highway 2 west. The building will house a complete showroom, office, ser- vice area, parts and storage. , "As well as being Canada's dairy capital, Oxford County is one of the best farm areas in the country;." 'Says Charles 'MUnrti, IH Canada's marketing manager • for agricultural equipment. "The firm will be located in a key market region with many potential customers." "The consistent growth -of the Vincent farm equipment business prompted the opening of this new dealership," ht 'adds. "The ter- ritory will include most of Oxford County and surrounding farm areas." Vincents had its beginning back in 1923, when Les Vincent pushed a wheelbarrow ,. full of farm implement parts alon the' main. street of Ayr. From humble beginnings, the. original business has expanded into., Vincent' Farm Equipment , Ltd.. a third generation family operation with locations in Ayr, Cambridge, Seaforth and Wood- stock. Taking over the complete operation in 1955, brothers War- ren and Marlen launched their expansion program for Vincent Farm Equipment Ltd. To, operate a successful farin equipment operation, an IH dealership must be involved in both agricultural organizations and the farming -community. Vincent's, certainly no exception, actively participates in • several association.. Both Warren and Marlen have held position with the Ontario Retail Farm Equip- ment Dealers Association. Community involvement is most important to the Vincent organization. Family members personally support 4-H Clubs and Junior Farmer groups. In 1-974, Warren Vincent was presented with a special medal by the Ontario Agricultural College for his service to agriculture'and his support of the farming com- munity. Marlen is active in the Seaforth Lions Club. He is conducting a successful year as president and recently was elected zone representative.
