Phone 887-6011 Brussels Agree Educational Goals United Church Presbytery Should Include Morals Opposes Sunday Funerals The establishment of edtleae tienal goals for the 1-lurPriCounty Board of Edneatien, particularly One word of the firSt of eight aims, was discussed in detail by trustees and members of the administrative staff Monday evening in Clinton. The one word was tt moral" and the recommendation was as follows; "In an effort to give direction and purpose to the educational system of the County, the Huron County Board of Education feels that all policies and decisions should )e made within the frame- work of the following education guidelines; (a) The development, within limits of resourses avail- able and laws of the Province, of each boy and girl to his emotion- al, social, moral and physical growth regardless of mental and physical capabilities." It was John Henderson of Mc- Kilian who questioned what the board meant by moral and physi- cal growth. He was told that the Huron County Board of Education would do everything in its power to see that the moral and physi- cal growth of its students was of the highest order. Mr. Henderson then produced a copy of a play which, he said, was being studied. 'The trustee related that a student was re- quired to stand up in class and read a portion of the play which contained some obscene language "Is that prompting moral growth?" he asked. Mrs. Marion. Zinn, Ashfield, chairman of the education comm- ittee which introduced the educa- tional goals to the board, said that lengthy discussion had been heard in committee on the matt- er. She said that it finally had been agreed - unanimously - that the word 'moral" should be in- cluded. These are our new goals," continued Mrs. Zinn, " and we are going to strive, and I mean strive, to see that they are met whenever possible." John Broadfoot, vice-chair- man of the board, said the time had come for the Huron County Board of Education to stand up and be counted" and to find out how many educators there are in the county who will "stand up and be counted with us." "If we're not prepared to look at morals then I think we have abdicated all responsibility as trustees because morals are the very fibre of a student's educe- Don't let lack of cash hinder a bargain buy! That house you hesitate to buy today because of the cost of a mortgage ....what will it be worth in ten years or longer? „lust look every- where at the record of increased real estate values over the ears! So come in and discuss a mortgage loan to help you. enjoy that dream home right now ... and own it while its long term value rises. l3orrow today at Victoria and Grey. VICTORIA and VG GREY tion," he continued. Mr. ,Broad- foot added the board must devel- which to stand and not just "talk loosely about morals." "you can't legislate morale" pointed out John Cochrane, dir- ector of education for Huron. "It is a goal, but we may never reach Mr. Cochrane said he did not condone today's morals, but he added that the schools were not fully responsible for building morals in a student. He said many students learned their morals at home or on the street or somewhere else in society. Do we have the right to veto certain books for study," asked Clarence McDonald, Exeter. "we're laymen and we're not really qualified to judge the qual- itY of textbooks for the class- room. If we're going to ban all books with obscenities in them, they may wind up with very few books." Frank Madill, superintend- endt,said that in his opinion students were better off study- ing these books under the guid- ance of a teacher than reading them in bed unknown to their parents.

"We will never have real integration as long as people are race conscious. when we all stop seeing each other as dif- ferent and ourselves in need of defences, then integration will work and not before. What we all have got to do is become color blind, then all men will speak the language of love," Mrs. Stevenson told the group. Mrs. Melvin Becker read "To make a Hom e". Roll call was a verse with "love". M mutes, visits, correspondence, plans for next meeting were included in the business and leaflets for the World Day of Prayer were passed out.

Dayuma left her home, after her father was speared, and the rest of her family feared for their lives and found safety among civilized people. For eight years she worked and forced herself to for- get her people and language.

Present were 36 clergy ,and 27 lay delegates re- presenting the United church of our area. Presbytery unanimously passed a resolution that it ""goon record as ppposed to the conduct of any Funerals on Sundays," Some of the reasons for this resk- lution were that Sunday Funerals force Funeral Director to work on the Sabbath, create a lot of extra, work for clergy who are already very busy on Sunday leaving no time for Family life, and make it necessary for UCW's to prepare refreshements if a reception is held. Also cited was the fact that in many other areas a. decline of Sunday Funerals is the trend.
