Plan for Year of the Disabled
"Our conduct is in-
fluenced not only by our
experience but by our
expectations," said Mrs.
C. Diamond, the
Provincial President- of
the Federated Women's
Institute of Ontario. She
was welcoming the
directors from all over
the province to the semi-
annual meeting at the
Lord Simcoe Hotel in
Toronto.
The_next four days
would be spent in
decisions and
deliberations that would
affect the 30,000 members
in Ontario and indeed in
society.
With the "International
Year of the Child," and
health being the prime
concern, the members
were urged to go to their
respective areas
promoting a study and
then definite action in this
regard.
Miss Molly McGhee,
the director of Home
Economics Branch,
Ministry of Agriculture
and Food, was pleased
with increased inquiries
regarding food preser-
vation, nutrition, and the
quality of foods. This
shows the need for the
service of t -his Branch.
,`.rn 1981 it will be the,
"International Year of
the Disabled Persons",
which affects 10 percent
of the population of
Ontario and she asked the
Women's Institute to
become involved in this
project.
The Department of
Home Economics con-
tinues to provide ex-
cellent training for the 4-
H leaders and senior
courses which is a service
that makes available
unlimited learning for
thousands each year in
the province.

education, presented 13

130 seniors gather for zone rally
1 he spring rally of zone
8 of the United Senior
Citizens of Ontario took
place on May 1, at St.
John's Parish Hall,
Grand Ben.d with the
Grand Bend Club acting
as hosts. Registration
took place from 9:30 -
10 : 30 a.m. when about 130
members registered,
including seven from
Clinton Golden Radar
Club.
At 10:30 Harry Baker
of Bayfield, president of
Zone 8, called the
meeting to order. Rev. G.
Anderson, pastor of St.
John's conducted the
devotional period.
Reeve Robert Sharen of
Grand Bend extended a
warm welcome and since
1979 is designated "The
Year of the Child" read a
very apt and thought-
provoking poem.
A comprehensive
report of 1978 Spring
Rally in Exeter in April
and Fall rally and picnic
combined in Seaforth in
August was read by zone
secretary Irene Johns
and the treasurer's
report was given by
Charles Martini. Mr.
Baker thanked his
executive for organizing
the rally.
The president or vice-
president of each club
was then -given three
minutes each to give a
resume of his or her
club's " activities during
the past year. Clubs
reporting were Goderich,
Exeter, Brussels,
Bayfield, Clinton, Grand
Bend, Seaforth, Hensall,
Zurich and Dashwood..
Sandwiches, cookies
and coffee were then
served by . the Grand
Bend ladies.
The Rally resumed
with a sing -song led by
Kenneth Johns with Mrs.
M. Dougall as pianist.
Howard Latsch sang
"How Great Thou Art"
with all joining in the
choruses.
Mrs. Nola Love, vice-
president of Zone 8, in-
troduced the guest
speaker, Mrs. Lucy
Turnbull, corresponding
secretary of U'S'C'O', a
very warm, gracious lady
and a tireless worker for
Seniors at U'S'C'O' in
Toronto. She enjoys the
fellowship and frien-
dliness of small groups
like Zone 8 but finds it
lacking in cities. She
thought the club reports
good as they create an
exchange of ideas.
The Theme of U'S'C'O'
is "Strength in Unity".
U'S'C'O' was formed in
1956 by two key men Jack
Larose and Jack Lerette.
From that small
beginning it has grown to
one of the largest unions
in Canada - a Senior
Citizens' union working
for Senior Citizens and
the dues are..$1 per year.
This provides most of the
assets for U'S'C'O' The
executive members are
all volunteers receiving
only travelling expenses.
There are now 988 clubs
n Ontario with a
membership of a quarter
million seniors. To be 60
years of age is the only
credential to belong. Any
club may send
uggestions or
esolutions to the
U'S'C'O' Convention in
Kingston in August where
hey will be discussed,
hen sent on to Govern-
ment, if considered
mportant. Mrs. Irene
Young, second vice -
resident of Zone 8
