The membership chairman presented the applications of ordinary member Leslie Ellis and associates Brenda Grubb and Bruce Douglas Johnston for membership in Branch 109; these applications were ac- cepted.

New work of fiction in libraries A new work of fiction, the novel "Homestretch" can be found in school libraries and in the classrooms in Huron County. The 150 -page novel is the work of John Greig of Gorrie. The author is a student at F.E. Madill Secondary School in Wingham and his finished literary work represents a project that he began as an elementary school stu- dent at Howick Central School. John was paid special recognition at the Huron County Board of Education meeting in Clinton on November 7. He was honored by the board trustees and presented with a token of appreciation. As well, John receiv- ed an author's copy of his novel, presented by teacher Warren Robinson. Inter -faith Task Force The public board of education in Huron County has supported a recommendation from the Anglican Church that calls for the EDUCATION Ministry of Education to establish an inter- faith task force. This task force would hi mandated to show ways that multi -faith education could benefit the students in the public school system. Public schools are now required by law to have opening and closing religious exer- cises. As well public elementary schools are also required to have two 30 minute periods per week of religious education. The Ontario Education Act also states that while pupils are allowed to receive such religious instruction, no pupil is required to participate if his parent or guardian objects. The current regulations have been challenged in the courts as violations of Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Huron Board trustees, in a report from the Ontario Public School Trustees' Association (OPSTA) learned that in July of 1986 the Supreme Court of Ontario ruled that since students could be exempted from taking part in religious studies, that such exercises were not a violation of Canada's Charter of Rights. • Meanwhile, an Ecumenical Study Com- mission, representing major religions; is lobbying the government for a more central role for religious education in the public schools. The OPSTA is currently preparing a discussion paper on religious instruction and this paper will form the basis of the OPSTA policy on religious instruction. The request to form a special task -force is a further endeavor to investigate religious education at the school level and, to develop new education ministry policies. tis This Christmas, give A SPECIAL CHRISTMAS TOY DRIVE ORGANIZED BY McDONALD'S RESTAURANT OF GODERICH AND THE GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR.
