Members of The United
Church of Canada in the Lon-
don Conference met at West.
minster College in London from
Friday to Sunday, to consider
the question: "Can We Make
the Church Relevant?" This is
a national project of, evangel-
ism and social action for the
year 1965 to 1967 and beyond:
The group was made up of min-
isters, men and women repre-
senting manyof the areas of
interest in the United Church
and • community; together with
individuals who are not deeply
involved in the work of the
church.
A spokesman for the confer-
ence stated: "Our mandate is
to critically, but const'ruetively,
examine the present course of
the United Church of Canada
as we see it and attempt to re-
late this course to daily life in
society in order to prepare the
Church for an engagement with
society."
Following the conference,
which is one of eleven being
held across Canada this year, 'a
comprehensive report will be
presented to the Board of Evan-
gelism and Social Service on
the United Church of Canada.
The, plans for this conference
were the responsibility of the
London conference- Committee
of Evangelism and Social Ser-
vice under the chairmanship
of Dr. J. Semple, of Darrel S.
Moffat Memorial Church, Til-
bury, Ont.
Those in attendance from
this area included Ernest Wil-
liams, Seaforth; Martin Baan,
Walton; Rev. and Mrs. Bert
Daynard, Staffa, and Rev. H.
F.. Currie, Hensall.

"You have no alternative
really, as a law-abiding bodyy,
but to go ahead with the ap-
Hointment of an inspector,"
uron county .council was told
on Wednesday by J. McNair,
engineer and chief ' officer of
the Ontario Labor Department's
construction' safety branch. He
had been here before, to point
out that the appointment of. an
inspector is mandatory under
the , Construction Safety Act,
but council took no action. This
time, it was referred -to the
warden's and personnel cora-
mittee for a report at Septem-
ber session.
"This matter," said Mr. Mc-
Nair, "was considered by a roy-
al commission on industrial
safety, and the Legislature pass-
ed the Act in 1962, This was
drawn to your attention at that
,time, and it was pointed out
that enforcement should be by
inspectors appointed by mun-
Beans in
Huron
Increased
•
There has been 33% increase
in White bean ,acreage in Huron
and a corresponding increase
in the number of growers, Ag-
ricultural Representative Doug-
las Miles reported to county
council. -
"It is hard to believe," he
said, "but they are moving in-
to almost every township ex-
cept Howick and Turnberry.
They are an important cash'
crop, and ' our farmers are
reaching out for some dollars
to carry on their operations.
Most growers of white beans, I
think, have been pretty happy,
but think some improvement
can •be made.
"While the weather is quite.
dry, we in Huron °are fortt}n-
ate, compared. to Eastern On-
tario. Some of the ag. reps.
in .Guelph last week said they
had not had a good rain since
1963. Probably the onlycrops
hurt here at the moment are
spring grailist, and some white
beans.
. "Prices of livestock are pret-
ty fair;' for hogs, the highest
in eight years. Good cattle are
in demand."
In preparation for the Inter-
national Plowing Match, to be
held near Seaforth in 1966,•"we
have the 100 acres seeded
down," Mr. Miles said, "with a
grass mixture we hope will be
the bust sold there has been."
The minister has announced
a centennial farmstead improve-
ment competition, and Huron
could get a grant up to a maxi-
mum of $1,800 for prize money.
Reeve Leiper, Hullett, report-
ed corn attae,kked by some kind
of grub. ,Mr. Miles said '70
acres had been found hit by
wire worm that morning, but
he did not think the general
gituation was -serious.
Mr. Leiper mentioned that a
neighbor had to •sow five times
on account of wire worm.
Weed Inspector Alex Chesney
urged vreater care ,in the use
of herbicides and pesticides. .

cipalitles, ill the first' plaee by
the county,,With opportunity
for local municipalities tQ
withdraw and appoint their,
own. Our- officers have explain-
ed and tried to convince the
county council ,this was a good
thing. .
"The decision h a n been
reaffirmed • that enforcenient-
should be by inspectors ap-
pointed by county couneil/-W.e
have reached the moment of
truth, and the time for discus-
sion has actually ' passed by
There is no longer a question
whether it is the right way. You
declare yourselves to be law-
abidin_g citizens and it is your
legal responsibility to appoint
an inspector to protect the
workmen within- your . county.•
Or• you may declare yourselves,
publicly you are not lat -abid-
ing Citizens and will not coin,
ply with the law. You can say
to your clerk you will take ,.no
action in the matter, or -you
may table the motion, but it all
covers up the same thing.
"From a civil servant, that
may seem a little blunt, or even
out of line, but the legislators
are the body that decides, and
you cannot say no at this stage.
The matter of the proper way
of enforcing the Act is no
longer a subject of discussion;
it has been decided by • the
Legislature."'
' To Reeve Clarence Boyle, of
Exeter, Mr. McNair said the job
of inspector was not necessar-
ily full-time. He added that
vacancies still existing, of which
Huronis one, represents "a
serious weakness" to the sys-
,tem. He -explained that con- -
,struction work by a"i"armer and
his` farm help does not come
'within the scope of the Act.
Up to May, 18 counties had not
fulfilled their. obligations; 12
had taken no positive• action;
in five, local municipalities had
Withdrawn; in the other case
an inspector had been appoint-
ed and suhsequently died. Of
12 western counties, Perth has
appointed; three have advertis-
ed, and eight remain. Bruce
has taken no action.
Answering an enquiry by de-
puty -reeve Squire, Goderich,
Mr. McNair, said there are
counties in which' a man is ap-
pointed who holds another of-
ffce, "but he must be qualified,
available, and do the job." In
some places, the inspector is
paid on a per diem basis, else-
where for full time. Salaries
run' to ,$6,000.90,• oceasionally
more.
"I do not think •in. the County
of Huron at present this would
involve a full-time operation,"
the' .Chief officer said. , - .
• Reeve M. Oesch, Zurich, ask-
ed if departmental approval
was necessary. "No, sir," re-
plied Mr. McNair; "we check
qualifications, and if . an ap-
pointee is not qualified we
bring it to youtl attention." Mr.
Berry asked if it would not be
better to review this before
the appointment, and Mr. Mc-
Nair said that upon request
the county would' be given ad-
vice. Some counties combine
the duties with those of a per-
son in the engineer's depart-
ment.

AN UNWANTED CHILD
DEAR DbRIS — My husband
and I •are in our late 40's. Last
year we adopted a two-year-old
girl because I insisted. Now I
find I do not want to be tied
down with a child. There are
two more months before the
adoption is made--final:-
My husband has become very
attached to her and refuses to
discuss my not keeping her.
Doris, she has screaming tan,
trims. ,1 knew this when -I took
her, but didn't tell him. The
worker thought that with lov-
ing care she'd get over them.
I've ,cleared up her eczema
and bronchitis and she 'is in
good physical health. I really
feel I have not the patience at
my 'age to °tand the tantrums.
I thought she would` be corn-
pany.
Nerves
DEAR NERVES—The sooner
you and your husband begin
acting like a unit, the better.
Deceptions, failure to explain a
point of view, refusal to 'discuss
things — all •these- characterize
the house divided.' And your
little girl cannot feel the se•
curity she needs in such an
atmosphere. '-
When a woman :takes 'on a
child to be "comparly" without
thought of what she must give
to her, in patient care• and all
that involves, she is doing it
for the Wrong motive,
•A- serious . discussion with
your husband Old with, your
child care worker could. redi-
rect your thinking.-•.
DEAR DORIS — I found so
much peace of mind and satis-
faction in your letter that I'm
•asking -for your advice again.
My daughter came back
home. You will never know
how pleased we were. But
since being home she told us
that she came home as a board-
er, not as a daughter. She has
never carried on a conversation
with us.
Shall I. ask her what ,is
wrong? . This silent treatment
does not bother *my husband,
but it js eating my heart out.
Worried Mom.
DEAR MOM—I'm glad she's
back—but it seems she;s only
there in \ the flesh. I'd. guess
that your earlier attempts to
have all the say about her do-
ings have really made her clam
up.
Take 'a new tack. Ask her
help about some family matter.
Let her see .you'd • value her
ideas. A person needs to be
needed, and with your over-
protective attitude in the past,
I'm quite sure it hasn't occur-
red to her that you need 'her.
Obviously she needs to know
she is a part of this-family—in
more ways • than one. Lean on
her.
