The afternoon sessions started with Com- munity singing led by Miss Christine PFYFCI Miss Jean Scott was the guest speaker using the topic Junior Institute Programing. Miss Scott defined a program as "Every- thing that happens to each person in the group from the time they enter the door of the meet- ing room until that door is closed as they leave." “Good programs must be carefully prepared and are most effective if a follow up Is planned. Good programs must be directly re- lated to the age. sex and the expressed interest of the group." “Members of a group might be given a list. asked to check off interests. and asked what they have enjoyed about certain programs.“ “Long term planning was suggested by Miss Scott. This could be done by selecting a topic stich as "How To Buy". One meeting might be devoted to how to buy clothing, a second to how to buy kitchen utensils. etc. “Page 16 of the Women‘s Institute Hand Book outlines the objects of the Junior Women’s Institutes. This should be studied." said Miss Scott. The Clinton Junior Institute presented an amusing skit. The girls sitting around a very safe camp fire. Were dressed in Indian cos- tumes made from brown burlap sacks and with feathers in the head bands sang songs and sa- tirized a Junior Institute meeting. The members of the Auburn Senior Wom- en's Institute served lunch at noon and pro- vided a smorgasbord banquet at six o'clock. After the banquet Mrs. Everett Small and MiSs Helen McKercher addressed the girls. It was decided during the evening that a second Convention would be held at the Cen- tralia School of Agriculture and Home Eco- nomics in September 1968 with Miss Helen Shaw of Peel County as chairman. Miss Watkins was thanked for the efficient work she had done in organizing this first Junior Institute Convention and praised for the splendid way she had conducted the meeting.
