SPEAK In the not too distant past the voice even the combined voice of women was negligible quality There exceptions of course when highly placed individual women or bad spoke with authority and were listened to The Newmarket Era and Express Thursday Aug Page 5 But in the main before the vote and the forming of womens organizations their voice had only influence on those with whom they had close contact and that only if they were wo men with force of character Now women vote and even if they sometimes kill their bus bands vote us Archie and I have found when we consulted after voting still they have expressed their idea of who they think will be the right man in the right place It is a wonder to me that the long years that women perforce kept their ideas within small compass did riot atrophy that part of the brain that busies it self with affairs outside home and community Instead of that when the im prisoning bars of custom were removed womens Ideas and ideals came forth with a fresh ness and vigor that was astound ing Long silent tongues were loos er and made eloquent by the de sire to belter the lot of women to raise their status in home community and world and now no woman need be ignorant of that world or voiceless in pro test against wrongs and cruelties said no women should have said no women this side of the iron curtain for it is a sad truth that their voices inside are again hushed Something of all this came to me when sat listening a guest of the Sharon Womens Institute on Wednesday of last week The Institute motto For Home and Country seemed to be illus trated In their discussions for Mrs Bill Proctor of Newmarket and Mrs of Sharon spoke of the organization in Sharon of a Home arid School association the bringing together for their mutual benefit of parents and teachers then they discussed at the request of their president Mrs Ramsay the advisability of entering the contest on five different ways of bettering the exhibition This exhibition being what it Is their ideas if prize winners would be talked about all over Canada and even if a prize was not won the very thinking the sifting of ideas would be a benefit Mrs Stanley Osborne read a chapter from a very in- Wresting book of the coming of the Quakers to Street and eventually to Sharon and of David breaking from Ihcrh to found The Children of Peace and to build Sharon Temple It seems so right to know the factors that have gone into the building of our communities Their influence is still with us and acts upon even if indirectly the life of the community in which they once flourished One of the reasons for my be ing at this meeting was because I had been asked to sing or play Owing to my long illness I was children but It is only right that their townsfolk should know just what they have in their midst Just now their teachers are restricting their playing but will not be long before not only Newmarket but the wider world outside it will recognize the genius that is theirs Myles played two solos one with his aunt Hilda and one alone In their duet Hilda stood behind the small performer and yet their bows moved as one and if anyone thinks this is easy for a beginner he had better think again Both children have perfect pitch which is boon to a musician and to the audi ence i- played a suite for piano and beautifully It showed her mastery of technique and interp retation which is always a source of wonderment After the program we enjoyed a cup of tea with its accompani ment of tempting delicacies and then Mr Elgin Evans came for us and we went from the home of our hostess Mrs Haines to see Mrs Evans rose garden What exquisite color and per fume has the rose One stands before its beauty awed and feels thai God must have said especi ally of it that it

have been a different sort of person than was the case with your predecessors Or it may be that through your efforts and understanding we the inmates have developed a new and different conception of Penitentiary Branch officers You have no doubt helped to instil In us a more social point of view Just as the of conver sation at today is your res ignation so in was your appointment as deputy commis sioner Most of us who at that time discussed the matter and speculated as to the sort of guy you are were pessimistic It was the general concensus here that your appointment was merely another political plum Even the more optimistic among us felt that you were an idealist whoso ideals would soon shat ter with the impact against the a I is surrounding Canadian penitentiaries We did find that you were an idealist as well as an optimist However we soon discovered that you were also a realist with the ability to apply your ideals to the problems at hand In face of the cynicism with which many of us have met your new Ideas your attitude was one of understanding Our regret to day that you ore leaving the job is in itself the best proof thai you have succeeded to ft large degree in changing our at titude changes have taken place In penitentiary lite In the past years The very approach to the inmate and his problems has undergone basic reorienta tion Wo know that under leadership

new hopes and goals As the years go by we hope that statistics showing a steady decline of recidivism in Canada will be the best tribute to your contribution to the cause of Canadian penology We would be less than frank if we should fail to admit that your departure leaves us some what worried We do know that the new penal program is not the child or concern of but one man Yet we also know that a new thing if it is to succeed must have someone prepared to push it to fight for it and to overcome the obstacles which standpatters place in the way of progress In expressing to you our cerest wishes for your great success as warden of Hart House we also express our fer vent hope that you will not for get that some penitentiary inmates will continue to look to you as a friend and champion Good
