son he said Speaking of the need to set more emphasis on informal education he said the rigidity of the current formal education system is main reason so many children become disen chanted and leave Formal education has been viewed as the only legitimate way of learning Informal education doesnt seem to be as acknowlixlged as it could be or should be SlOGESIS NEW ONtEIT Wilson said he plans to present proposal to the education ministrys standing committee about new concept for the classroom that in some ways takes education back to the village concept Ihats not the red school house Bette Stephenson talked about he added quickly There is relationship bet ween less delinquent behavior and better educational facilities and processes The difficulty is that we con staiitly complain we want for mal education to do better job Historically the parent fecls fOIIIpItHIIISttl inadequate or threatened when visiting teachers Wilson said Resistance by educators parents and professionals must change he added because children will be the losers There must be an opening We are hiding behind things that perhaps are restricting the way Im attempting to speak to the ministry and groups like this to show that we are all part of the problem but also part of the solution PSYCHOLOGICAL ABUSE While physical abuse of children is increasing tremen dously the amount of psychological abuse caused by schools and insensitive profes sionals is also doing damage Wilson said The school system is now being used as holding system and thats not adequate Some children should not be in the regular school system To be able to change the state of education now Wilson sug gests educatiors parents and professionals must begin work ing together We must examine our own vested interests determine our objectives and protest to begin eliminating barriers or restrictive attitudinal sets that limit children he said LISTS EXAMPLES Wilson listed examples of in novativc forms of education now being used

system to national study call cd One Million hildrcii by the ommission on Emotional and Learning Disorders of Children published in 1970 This report is almost to yers old but so far not enough of its recommendations have been adopted Wilson said Barrie organizations need more volunteers Many liarric area associa tioiis need volunteers says lyiiii Stevenson coordinator of the recent volunteer workshop held at the Iiarric Yl YWtA IIrs Stevenson says she hopes the workshop and the Volunteer Week proclama tioii by Mayor lioss Archer will encourage more Barrie residents to do volunteer work The liarric and District Associatoii for the Mentally lictaidcd the YM YWtA and girl guides and boy scouts iii particular are in need of volunteers she says if the more than too people who attended the workshop most were volunteers but Mrs Stevenson said to 20 In business people Interested in becom ing volunteers also attended Speaking on the role of the volunteer oiinie Morgan coordinator of the family support program for the liar rte Association of the family support program for the liar ric Association for the Men tally Retarded said volunteers should expect to dosomcJoejobs Just because youre not being paid doesnt mean you should get out of everything she said Joe jobs are part ol being volunteer just as long as JoeJobs arent all you do She also cautioned that volunteers should have sense of humor Women work harder stay longer study liIiY ttli Women are good bet for company says Allan alioon business professor at the lnivcrsity of algary lhcyre very loyal they stay longer they work harder and theyre more supportive of their fellow employees alioon speaks from ex pcrtcncc He is conducting major study of women in biisi iicss Irobably no woman would be surprised at his finding that women infrequently make it past the first line supervisor level to middle management and rarely reach the senior management level at least not in Alberta ahooii says the business community is losing good potential leadershipthrough its failure to promote woiiien Women have been out of the financial mainstream for so long that they must work twice as hard as men in comparable position hc says LIKELY MOIIII LOYAI If they have reached rclar tivcly high level women tend to be grateful enough to accept lowcr pay than men Also they may stay in the company longer and likely will be more loyal to superiors than would male employees llecausc women have strug gled to get where they are they probably will adopt suppor tivc attitude to staff Working for them VICTORS HAIRSTYLE FREE $2500 BODY PERM Phone 726938 for details llut what about Illtll draw backs After all women do get pregnant No matter says tahooii Women take time off iii matciii ity leave but men are more likely to have nervous break downs The time off in both cases tends to even out The worry about women Icav iiig jobs once they have cliil drcii or once they get married is equally exaggerated ialiooii insists man makes career deci sion when he is 20 or years old but woman waits until she is so or 35 She spends her 20s deciding whether to gct married or raise family but when shc finally makes up her mind she sticks to it Add it all up and the turnover and absenteeism rate of women is the same as that of men he says One of the real problems for women says aliooii is the lack of an old buddy network that cffcctivcly raises the con fidciice of men in business Women dont have them They have lots of social things they can join biit no profcs sional clubs where they can go and talk over their problems with other women The scarcity of women in ex ccutivc positions also tends to warp the image of women who do make it he maintains lood management tends to be identified with biusquc dtxisiveiiess which in turn tends to be seen as male trait Instead of developing tcmi nine attributes in the job sitc cessful women tend too often to try to be as aggressive and hardnosed as possible he says To avoid being stereotyped as female they go as far as cut ting their hair shorter dressing in pantsuits and Vests and min iiniziiig their female attract iveness Younger women see the result as overtly ambitious asexual women executives and decide that promotions arent w0rth the price Ann Lgnders Confession says mouthful Dear Ann Please print this conkssionw gut by trimming These Times

Christmas dinners with my family as well as other holidays This man bought me expensive jewelry and he took me to all the nicest places He liked me and we frequently had din ner and went to the theatre with his friends realizenow they must have known the game he was playing After six months things began to get serious and he had to admit that he had wife and two children was shocked you see

commitments no I31k of marriage Just very loose arrangement that if things didnt work out youd split Well its not that easy few years ago 726 years ago to be exactmy husband bought pump organ at an auction for $35 At the time it seemed like sweet little addition to our kitchen covered the little stool chmt and put wooden bowl of apples on topof it When we opened the table however someone invariably had to sit on the keyboard and as shoved it into the family room it seemed heavier than hen we originally moved it in The next year hen put up the Christmas tree the on gun stood out like sport shirt at the prom shoved it into the dining room noting that it had grown CODSIdtILlDl and no longer fit through the doorway as it used to It occupied an entire wall in the dining room where it began to get on my nerves what with the new modern dining room set with the padded chairs relegated it to our bedroom Its prime reason for being in our bedroom was to stumble over it in the darkness and awaken me before fell into wall and hurt myself When talked of selling the pitiin organ my husband rose to its defence and said Nonsense It grows in value each day and told me if it bothered me III the bedroom to move it to the living room where II would be the highlight of every prty For some reason varicose IlIrllltltlI guests did not have good time sitting around pumping an organ all night When we moved it as blessing That meant we had sc cii frein rooms in which to play musical organ few years ago when we bought summer cabin we loaded the organ up for its iItIOmilc move To date it has been on every wall in every room in the house In 26 years it has grown three feet in width and added Too pounds to its weight Its family It is not unreasonable to assume that in years to come where will be some legal way to dissociate yourself from furniture iusiiig the Marvin decision as precedent but With my luck what do you want to bet Id get custody ofthe pump organ Pollys Pointers Dry
