In conclusion the convener said, “Your branch is unique in your community. Study the needs of the people and fit your program to your members using the resources you can find. If the program doesn't inspire your mem- bers, either the program or the Convener or the program planners need to be changed. REPORT â€" CITIZENSHIP AND WORLD AFFAIRS Mrs. John Hermansen, Convener The reports contained many excellent pro- grams on Citizenship but I found that pro- grams on World Affairs were lacking in a large percentage of them. Citizenship â€" Some Roll Calls of interest were: 1. What I can do to discourage racial dis- crimination. 2. How would I improve our township if I were the reeve. 3. Why does Canada attract people from other countries? 4. Name a Canadian woman who left her footâ€" prints on the “Sands of Time.” 5. My opinion of women serving on the jury. 6. A Canadian law pertaining to women. Mottoes 1. Citizenship, like Charity, begins at home. 2. Every privilege carries responsibility. 3. Oath of allegiance for Canadian Citizens. 4. The second century challenge to women of Canada. 5. The time has come for Canadians to stand together and understand together. 6. People born into freedom do not know its value. Roll Calls â€" World Affairs 1. Name a person in the news and tell why his or her name appears there. 2. Di5play in some manner relating to a mem- ber country of the United Nations. (Pins, ap- rons. dolls, flags, pottery, handkerchiefs, etc. were shown.) 3. Emblem of a foreign country. 4. Name a world leader and the country which he or she represents. 5. Name a project of A.C.W.W. and tell about it briefly. 6. Name an emerging country and give its capital. (A map of the world would help here.) Mottoes â€" World Affairs 1. World Affairs are our affairs. 2. Peace will come when the power of low. is greater than the love of power. 3. According to our vision to-day, so will be our achievement to-morrow. 4. A different world cannot be made by indif- ferent people. WINTER 1973 5. Great events are taking place in the world toâ€"day. Are you aware of them? 6. To the child we cannot answer "TO-MOR- ROW." His name is “TOâ€"DAY.“ I was pleased to read in so many reports that discussion followed the giving of a motto. This is excellent as it involves more members and various opinions are given rather than just one. REPORT â€" TWEEDSMUIR HISTORIES Mrs. R. C. Walker, Curator Number of Area Tweedsmuir Histories â€" 14 Number of District Tweedsmuir Histories â€" 112 Number of Branch Tweedsmuir Histories â€" 1.347 My sincere thanks is extended to the conâ€" scientious curators at the various levels of our organization for their time and effort in come piling this valuable and interesting Canadian History. Same are new curators with the task of beginning a History of the local commu- nity. while others have been curators for many, many years. and are now realizing that they have not more than five years to comâ€" plete their researching and recording up to date â€" see page 13 of the new Handbook. Please note on Page 8 of your Handbook that the Curator is elected at the time of the Annual Meeting. However. the curator has the prerogative of selecting her own committee with whom she will work. The committee should consist of persons. both male and feâ€" male. throughout the community', they need not be Women's Institute members. In April of 1971 a questionnaire was sent to the 114 District Curators. copies of which they were asked to send on to their branch curators, These were all to be returned to the Provincial Curator. Of course. we had the few who never seem to want to coâ€"operate, so we still have a question as to exactly how many Tweedsmuir Histories there actually are within the Province. A few statistics from that questionnaire show that: 82% of the curators elected this past April were new curators, with 66% never having worked on a Tweedsmuir History Committee. Less than 1% of the Branches have ever had small Tweedsmuir Community Teas â€" no wonder many complain of lack of coâ€"Operâ€" ation and interest within their communities. This year there has been a steady request for Tweedsmuir History Workshops. To date 22 have been held during 1972, representing 298 Branches and attended by 693 women. It 17
