Although they have liv- ars in Canada they have native turn of delightful "West have never regretted com- ough life has 1 feck i iE § £5 1H 3 fg a 0 B E iki qm Sa 1H H gst Ll - 1 little better. I got fen dollars a month." And she rippl with merriment at the thought. Were they homesick? "What was the use of being home- sick?" Mr. Johns took up the story. "We had nothing to go back to. We had sold up our home to come to Canada, and things were pretty bad in England in those days. The poor people didn ave a chance. "As a young lad, my mother put me to work for a er, and one day, while I was hoeing, he came around just as I was straightening my back. 'You must have a bone in your back, said he to me. 'I have that', I replied, and that night he told my mother 1 was no use to him, I was 'sassy." Mr. and Mrs. Johns came to Oshawa in 1929, and this summer they plan to take a trip back to England. Mr. Johns has a sister who lives in the village where time has stood still. "Why, she must have lived in the same cottage for sixty years, he mused. "That's no good. A per- son is better to move around a bit. and see the way other peoole live." They agreed that it hadn't seem- ed like fifty years since they were wed. "I don't know whether it's been married bliss or blitz," quip- Years Together ped Mrs. Johns. "1 don't believe these couples who claim they nev- er had a cross word. Everyone has differences. The thing to do is get over them. If you can't stand looking at one another, go out for a walk. You come back Fred and five gran fe Their daughter, Mildred, died a few years ago. The couple received many gifts of flowers, and on Frid avening . | a delegation from Cedar Dale U ted Church accompanied by .the minister, Mr. James Young, call- ed and presented them with a gold faced travelling clock.

"WIFE PRESERVER To protect suitcases and other Women Teachers' Federation Holds Panel on Publicity The Oshawa Unit of the Women Teachers' Federation had a panel discussion at its monthly meeting. This panel discussion was concern- with the relationship of publi- city to teachers and sc A ; ing match, or interviews . | with educational topics. be of general interest to the public were mentioned, For the press, it was felt that articles about mod- ern trends in education, both 0 and con, would be suitable. For radio the ines of programs which would most likely catch the public interest, would be quizz programs with children taking part, a spell dealing Mr. Phllips explained the value that Progtams of this nature would have to radio station. The local radio depends on interest in local situations. If a child or other in- dividual was to be on the local broadcast, all Jeanie who were in- terested in that child or individual, were more inclined to listen to the ial [local station. The pesonnel of the local radio station would have the burden of the work in preparing of |the program. The time that this spaper, it was felt one article and perhaps Die, Wi ei blici I{ into at and pul was gone some length. The panel could not agree on the difference or simi- larity of advertising and publicity. The taking of pictures of activi- ties in schools was discussed.Mrs. Aldwinckle explained that if there was some that the school felt was suitable for a picture or arti- cle in the newspaper, the city edi- tor should be contacted. It was his vespousibility to decide what could the paper and the amount of space he could allow for a particu- lar article. If a photographer fail- ed to keep an appointment, the news room should contacted. Everyone on the panel agreed that a program on educational topics on the radio and in the newspaper would be a worthwhile a newspaper ar- ticle should be about a half col- umn in length and a radio pro- gram a half hour in length. Miss McLeod expressed the opin- fon that if such a regular eolumn |bell or broadcast were undertaken, it should not be done lightly. The second should be better than the first and the ones following of a progressively better quality. Those volved would have to be intense- ly interesting to keep the quality from deteriorating. The types of events which would work was done would have to be largely at the convenience of the radio station staff. For a quizz program invio children from various schools was felt that the length of time of the Program would be the de- ciding factor for the number of children involved. For a half hour quiz program, with two schools, Miss Powell felt that at least six children (three from gach school) should take part. About four articles should be on file ahead of time for a news- paper column. This would allow for substitution for articles which the city editor could not use or for some unforeseen situation where a column was not prepared. For some types of radio pro- grams, they should be prepared as they are wanted. It was felt that there could be two or three pro- grams on tape for emergency use. In summing up the discussion, the chairman suggested that the teachers could use the information gained through the panel to good advantage. re would be value to both teachers and public in pre- senting facts on education through press and radio. . The Chairman of the program for the evening was Miss pe Faircloth. The panel was thanked by Miss Muretta Hull. Mrs. Jean Cook sang two solos accompanied at the piano by Miss Agnes Camp- A short business meeting, with the president, Miss Marguerite Powell, presiding, preceded the program. Refreshments were served' at the close of the meeting. The teachers had the opportunity of meeting the panel members as well as er guests from the lo- cal newspaper and radio station. [fie i The Rev.
