Only the things of God will last, he said, and thanks be to Uod for the gift of Jesus, for when Jesus comes our way life takes on a dif- ferent . meaning. We have the assurrance of salvation through Christ, he added,' and in setting our lives apart for God, whate'er befall, he gives us the victory in life again and again.

WORKSHOP Another workshop attended by two of Howick's teachers was on Sept. 22. This was a Farm Out- door Education workshop. Mr. Raynard and Mr.. Reid were the two teachers that went to this activity. During the day approxi- mately 30 teachers were taken on tours of 'two farm. Ona of the farms is a dairy farm owned by Lloyd and Betty Dales. a other is a chicken and hog peration owned by Mr. and rs, Juhn Boven. Both df these far s are ir. the Clinton and Seaforth rea. The teachers said this would help bring new id € s for the science program in our school. —Leisa Garniss PARENT VOLUNTEER PROGRAM At Howick Central School, teachers and students are thank- ful for parent volunteers. The volunteers are mothers and in- terested people in the community . who come in to the school one day each week to work with our stu- dents in the areas of reading, math and spelling. This program enables the student to get more individual attention. The students enjoy wanking with the various volunteers and we feel it helps the students understand their sub- jects much better. Forms for Parent Volunteers were attached to the September Gazette, a monthly information paper of activities at school. If parents were interested in help- ing at school they were.to fill out the form and return it to the school. Last year's program was successful, with about five regu- lar volunteers and six part time helpers. We all hope it will be of great value to everyone involved with the Parent Volunteer Pro- gram in the 77-78 school year. —Caroline Mulvey, URBAN OUTDOOR ED.

We should always express gratitude for our blessings and to all who help us in any way; she said, Prayer concluded the devotional period. -Larry Elliott added a delightful measure of enjoyment to the occasion with his solo, "Bless This House", accompanied by Mrs. William Robertson on the piano.
