Surely, we've all twisted the truth to avoid hurting so- meone's feelings or to get ourselves out of an embar- rassing situation, We assure ourselves there's no reason to feel guilty. Everyone does it. No one will ' ever find out about 'our fib. Besides, ,it's just a little white lie, and tittle white lies are harmless. Right'' One man was trapped by his white lie. His name. is Fred. (That's another little white lie! i Fred and•his wife planned an evening on the town. The highlight would be dinner at a restaurant they had visited a few months earlier. The restaurant's specialty was a''dessert - the likes of which Fred had not tasted before or since. ills mouth watered just thinking atm! it. The management operated two restaurants. H'e'll call them A and 13. The establishments were similar but only one served the special dessert. Fred was cer- tain it was 13. • Fred's wife wanted to eat at restaurant A. because it was closer to home. but Fred was determined to have his dessert. He didn't care how many miles he had to drive. 11e and his wife arrived at restaurant B; they found a cozy table, and a waitress brought menus. - ' - Fred perused the menu once, twice, .three times. To his horror. he found no special dessert. It must have been at 'restaurant A. He whispered to his wife, "This is the .wrong place. Let's get outle here!" By now his wife's patience was wearing thin. "We can't • just walk out," she snapped. "Here comes the waitress." "111 get us out of this," Fred assured her. ile grinned sheepishly at' the waitress. "i'm very sorry, Miss, but it seems we've made a mistake. You see, we're supposed to meet friends for dinner, hut they're not her and 1 just r•emenibered that they pro- bably went to your other restaurant. So we'll just slip over there." "Oh. that's rlo problem," repficu the waitress. "I'11 just call the other restaurant and tell them you're here. What's your friends' names'.'"

A study, concerned with the needs of rural women and ex- pected to be completed in about a year, is being con- ducted' by Molly McGhee of the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Miss McGhee has hearings plann- ed for more than two dozen locations across the province, R.C.A.T. was the first loca- tion for -the Status of Rural Women hearings. The videotaped student presentations called on the provincial government and its agencies to provide for more programs for women in the financial management of the farm area, greater access to employment opportunities beyond the clerical and ser- vice levels, and greater and more active involvement in 'the political arenas beyond the municipal level. In addition to the student presentations, Miss McGhee heard from women from the rural communities of Kent and Elgin Counties. Concerns about discrimination against women in the tobacco in- dustry were heard. As well, Mrs. Hilda Morden of Rodney expressed the con- cern that the Federation of Women's Institutes; which was well represented in numbers at the hearing, was notably silent and inactive in the presentation of any view- points of its members, Mrs. Morden said her feeling was that the W.I. was a dying in- stitution and was unable to at- tract young rural women to become members because Learn about group home The Hurondale Women's Institute February meeting was held in Caven Church with dessert.

"What's the difference bet- ween a debtee and debtor?" the economics teacher asked his class. "The former," said a stu- dent, "has a better memory than the latter." programs run by the W.I. had little appeal to women under fifty years of age. The W.I. is the traditional vehicle utiliz- ed by OMAF in providing ser- vice to rural women. Two young, unidentified women, who had been raised in an urban setting, but who are now married to farmers, said they were particularly concerned about the difficul- ty in obtaining information on how to better prepare themselves to be competent farm business partners to their husbands. The delivery of programs, specifically for rural women, was seen as a cause for a dilemma. In attending courses provided by agricultural colleges such as R.C.A.T., some women said taking time off from ' farm duties 'creates problems at home not easily overcome. One solution, provided by the college students, was to work out with the Ontario govern- ment television system, TV Ontario an arrangement whereby rural women could be provided with educational programs in their own homes or through the use of r videotaped programs co- ordinated by local library personnel.
