Times-Advocate, 1979-02-21, Page 16Page 16 Times-Advocate, February 21, 1979 Institute learn about outcasts Nineteen ladies and three children attended the February Women’s Institute meeting held Thursday afternoon in the United Church. A special guest was Mrs. Grace Drummond, district president of Huron South and she brought greetings. Roll call was answered by “Name a good thing in life that is free.” Topic was on education and cultural activities, which was prepared by the convener, Verna Lovie, and given by Clara Hamilton. She spoke on the Twin Valley Community school at Wardsville, operated by George Bullied. This special school accepts youths and teenagers who are outcasts or unwanted and whom society has failed. The school is a self con­ tained community, having a store, school, community centre and a farm. In the school’s seven year history, 1000 have passed into the mainstream of society and several to college. The adult classes at Lambton college for ages 20- 60 was commented on. It is estimated there are 1,000,000 illiterates functioning in Canada. Education Minister Bette Stephenson says, "it is essential that physical, mental, emotional or lear­ ning disabilities be identified early, so that remedial programs can be promptly." The motto, “There isn’t a map to the road of success, you have to find your own,” was read by Mrs. Hamilton. Chairlady at this meeting was Brenda Love. Did you know? was given by Love on household cooking hints. Lunch hostesses Olive Webb and Annie Morenz. Won't restore log chapel provided Huron Country Playhouse has had to abandon one of its construction-restoration projects: perserving the old log church which is located on the farm next door to the Playhouse. Unable to carry out the project, the Playhouse had to pass up a Canada Works grant which was approved for the project. The project would have provided three months of employment for four workers in disassem­ bling the log chapel and relocating it on the Playhouse property. The project was aban­ doned because of the dif­ ficulty of finding logs to replace those which, in the chapel’s 120 year history, have badly deteriorated. All in all the project would have turned out to be much more costly than it was at first anticipated. The re-located chapel at the Playhouse would have faced the court yard and would have been used as a souvenir and gift shop. The Canada Works funds at­ tained for the Playhouse project were re-allocated to other projects in Huron. were BUSY FELLOWS - The hot dog chefs were the busiest fellows at Grand Bend, Sunday.
