"It is estimated by the year 2000 skill trades that still remain will need to be relearned as many as ten times!" "It becomes absolutely mandatory that all professionals update themselves, constantly in fact," continued Dr, Church. "With the exploai9n of knowledge they will have to accept specialization in all preas.to a very marked degree." "From the year zero through the increasingly rapid advance of civilization to the year 1'750 the total aeceniulative technologieal knowledge of the human race hap doubled, in 1750 years," stressed Dr. Church. "By the year 1900 the total accumulated knowledge had doubled again — that is 150 years. By the year 1950 it had doubled again, that is 50 years. By the year 1960 it had doubled again." "We don't have the figures for the position for 1970 as yet but we do know that we have at least doubled again," said Dr. Church, "So what we are dealing with is a rate of acceleration of change that is staggering 'and that the human mind cannot accept — it simply boggles at the fact." "Whatever educational system we may use from here on in for the human race, it has to be a very different one than we have had to date," said Dr. Church. "There is no limit to how well we can solve this educational problem except the limit of our imaginations and the limit of our economy." Dr. Church, a pioneer in this district with television learning, suggested this method could be an answer to some of the problems. "We have to search out the needs of the people of this region," concluded Dr. Church. Bill Morgan discussed "The industry without a smoke-stack" — tourism and recreation. "Only in recent years have we really recognized the potential of the tourist industry," said Morgan. "Economic development only comes from new money and new money comes from only two of one family graduate daughter of Mr. an4.1*S. Ben Riley of Londesboro, was a recent graduate of Stratford Teachers College: Also graduating from Stratford was Miss Lloy Shaddick of Londesboro. BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER During the afternoon session last Wednesday at the 1971 Spring Conference of the Midwestern Ontario Regional Development Council, four experts from various fields took part in a panel discussion on the topic "Five Ways For People To Plan For People." Those taking part were Dr. Stanley Young, co-ordinator of Agricultural Extension at the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph; Dr. James Church, President of Conestoga College, Kitchener; W. F. Morgan, secretary-manager of the Stratford Chamber of Commerce; and Dr. F. G. Stewart, minister at St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Kitchener. A fifth speaker, Trevor L. Jones, director of Corporate Public Affairs, B. F. Goodrich Canada Limited, Kitchener, was confined to hospital. "There are many people who don't realize that farming and agriculture is a dynamic industry," said Dr. • Young. "Farming is a one and a half billion dollar business annually in the province. There are massive things going on, Some of the developments taking place match those developments in space, electronics, etc. They are all intended to fill the bellies of the people of Ontario." He said that while the number of farmers and farms are decreasing — "and will continue to do so" — a large percentage of the work force is involved either directly or indirectly in agriculture. "Many more than farmers have a stake in what happens to the farming industry," Dr. 4 members Young reminded his audience, "Some people have ignored that fact," Dr. Young said that "bigness" is not only measured in acres, but it really refers to the output of all operations on a particular farm, He said the amount of production and whether or not the foods produced were of the right kind for modern living was of prime importance today. He said synthetic food& are "an illusion," "Every synthetic food traces back to plant growth," Dr. Young pointed out. "Processing of Ontario products is a key to employment for Ontario people," stated Dr. Young. He explained that it was necessary for farmers to produce, whenever possible, the food to feed the nation and the raw products necessary to industry. "Marketing is a priority of course," Dr. Young said. "We can't stop trade internationally. We don't want to. But wherever we can, let us do the producing. We have to have our food produced in our own country wherever possible or we become subservient to anyone who wants to feed our people." Dr. James Church, educational advisor for the meeting, said changes are taking place so fast in education today that "we have to be ready to teach those skills which don't even exist at the present time." "You have heard the term pedagogy many, many times — the art and science of teaching children," said Dr. ChurcliMiere is a totally new science being taught" "now and that is the science of androgogy — assisting adults or human beings to lea . "In the twentieth century durfrli sources, productive industry and the visitor trade," He said nothing lends it§eif more to the regional concept than the visitor trade. By communities getting together in a fairly large area and planning for the tourist trade, they could offer a wider variety of activities. "The travelling public is looking for diverse activities," said Morgan. "And the traveller is prepared to travel from one community to another within a fairly broad area." " e have many natural and man-made resources to promote and to improve," continued Morgan. "More can be built. We should cater to the needs df the travelling public," The organization of a travel association is a priority item for this region. He advocated a full-time staff to deal with tourist promotion in the four-county area and reminded his audience that people are travelling and searching for recreation year-round. He quipped about the large amount of snow which fell on Stratford this past winter ro — 150 inches! "We can't export it," he said, "so let's import somebody to that snow." . Morgan also expressed a hope that the government would give favorable reaction to an idea which could be forwarded from this region whereby the government would match, dollar for dollar any:, money raised in this region to promote the tourist industry. "It needs to be a partnership arrangement between private and public sectors," concluded Morgan. "A fine awareness ,and the rich responsibility" of the community was urged by the final speaker, Rev. Finley Stewart. "We've lost our sense ofl the community," remarked the speaker. "The, school has lost its sense of community. The community is compassion and 'concern." He reminded his audience that the whole region of MORDC should be a community. "The world itself should be conscious of being a community," Rev. Stewart concluded.
