The "Centre" was filled
Friday evening u folks from
Ailsa Craig and surrounding
area came to hear Evelyn
McNaughton describe, with
slides, the beauty of the Scan-
dinavian countries namely,
Sweden, Norway and Den-
mark. Leningrad, U.S.S.R.
and Helsinki Finland were
also included in her trip last
June.
We were all amazed at the
bright colours of the flowers
and the growth of fruits so
early in the year, due to the
18-20 hours of sunshine each
day. As Evelyn said it was
quite exciting to' come out of
a Russian Opera at 10:90 p.m.
and see the people enjoying a
walk out on the street and the
cars with no headlights on.
Evelyn was thanked by
Janet Rose, president of the
Centre Committee, and Ger-
trude Rosser, on behalf of all
those present for taking us on
such a beautiful armchair trip

ANNUAL
POPPY
CAMPAIGN
Dear Citizens
The annual distribution of poppies and
wreaths is the Canadiadn Legion's only national
appeal for funds, which are held in trust in a
separate account.
Branch Poppy Trust Funds are reservoirs from
which emergency assistance can be given to needy
veterans, their dependents and the widows and
children of deceased ex -servicemen.
The poppy fund is the Canadian Legion's way
of remembering the debt which all of us owe
to those who sacrificed so much. It is the
Legion's sincere belief that Canadians appreciate
the opportunity of contributing in a small way
to the payment of this debt. Last year we col-
lected 51833.75 and thedisbursement for the past
year was $2142.55.
In addition to the act of remembrance, con-
tributions to the Poppy Fund are tangible expres-
sions of thanks to the men who died and to those
who have been left disabled.
To ensure our Poppy Campaign will be suc-
cessful we will try and do our compaigning all
in one night. The night will be November 5th,
in case of rain November 6th. This year we are
again inviting our cadets to help and would ap-
preciate the help of all comrades and ladies aux-
iliary who arc able to assist on this drive. All help
will be greatly appreciated.
Yours in Comradeship

By MRS. ROBERT LAING
Cromarty Marian Ritchie

teaching careers. All
members shared in the WTA
pledge of acceptance.
The evening's guest
speaker, Edna Parker, pro-
vincial president of FWTAO,
was introduced by Phyllis
Lyon. Ms. Parker outlined
current trends and issues in
education, pointing out con-
cerns over their implementa-
tion, and suggesting teachers
have a responsibility to be
aware of these issues, and to
be prepared to give imput.
These concerns include the
adequate financing of
elementary schools,
necessary funding to the pro-
vincial mandatory program
in special education, and the
inclusion of health procedures
to be carried out in schools by
qualified personnel.
Class size is also an impor-
tant issue, with the im-
plementation of Bill 82
mainstreaming of special
education students, and the
increasing numbers of split
classes.
Curriculum changes are
ocCcurring at all levels, with
guidelines not always clear.
With preparation and
knowledge teachers can ef-
fectively contribute. Student,
teacher, and program evalua-
tion is an ongoing issue with
much significance.
Other areas also seen as
key are collective bargaining,
the autonomy of the federa-
tion and affiliates, and the
need for professional develop-
ment to continue to enrich our
understanding and ex-
perience as professionals. She
reminded the women
teachers that teachers
themselves are the best
public relations available in
teaching, concluding that,
"You are what you teach."
The meeting closed with a
unanimous motion to con-
tribute $350 to the London
women's Community House,
to be matched by the provin-
cial Women Teachers'
Association office.
