BAYFIELD — A special meeting of the local associ­ ation, to guides and brownies was held at the home of Mrs. Joe Mayman on, Tuesday, • Octobei' 4. . ’This meeting was called in an' effort to get the mothers of approximately 35 guides and brownies to attend. Pre­ sent were four members and of .these, two were executives. ■ Great concern is felt at the lack of co-operation from the mothers. It was. pointed out that the six leaders who are either mothers themselves or hold a full time position give freely and. generously of their time and effort, but that they must have the full support of every guid'e or brownie mem­ ber in the village. The presideht, Mrs. Wil­ liam McIlwain, is to contact Miss Mary McMillen, the di­ vision commissioner, in an ef­ fort to resolve 'the situation. A desperate call for Brownie leaders in Clinton has resulted in only one voluntary offer of help for work 'with 64 eager Brownies who are anxious 'to begin activities . for another year. District Commissioner for Guides and Brownies’ in Clinton and Adastral Park, Mrs. D. J, Carmichael, CEB Clinton told the News-Record Tuesday that only ten ladies attended the Special meeting Monday night in Clinton Legion Hall, and of those, five were from CF1B Clinton. , Mrs. ' Carmichael said at least one more Brownie leader must be found for Clinton and added that two packs of 32 Brownies each should have two or three assistants'. She said new Brownie leaders and as­ sistants would' receive .extensive training .if necessary from' her and her established'guide lead­ ers at CFB Clinton where 134 .girls ' are enrolled in. two Brownie packs, two 'guide groups -and one Ranger Club. . In addition to Brownie’ lead­ ers, a new leader is required far the Guide group in Clinton. Mrs. Carmichael has received word, that the present Guide ’leader has been posted’ with her husband to Germany. "Clinton people should see the advantage of- having their own leaders, rather than work­ ers from CFB Clinton,” said Mrs. Carmichael. "We have been fortunate to have extra trained leaders at Adastral Park in the event others are posted.” Mrs.. Carmichael’ stressed the need1 for Brownies and’ Guides in Clinton where there -is "very ’ little extra-curricular activity for the children.” ’ Interested persons may phone Mrs. • Ruth Williams, president of the Women’s Auxiliary to Guides and Brownies, at 482- 7219 after six, or Mrs. Stella Delawski, 482-7345 before 6 p.m. .

Jutras, manager’ of the local office of the former Na­ tional Employment Service. Mr. Jutras said that, the new name reflects more accur­ ately the emphasis that the •service is placing. on coun­ selling, training, labour force mobility, up-grading, re­ search, and labour market in­ formation. The office is situated at 35 . East Street,' 'Goderich, in the same location. Rapid Technological change is the reason for the increas­ ingly important role that the ■ Canada Manpower Centre must Undertake. If the econ­ omy is to prosper, it must • take advantage • of new and improved ways of doing bus­ iness, and, to make this pos- sible, the labour force must be extremely adaptable and mobile. It is the Job of the Canada Manpower Centre to assist .the labour force to re­ spond to. these changes Mr. Jutras said that both employers and employees will benefit from the new and im­ proved service from the Can­ ada Manpowei* Centre and urged them to make full use of his office for every em­ ployment and labour market need.
