TWENTIETH PROVINCIAL CONVENTION Now for education: In these days when so much stress is laid on adult education the Women's Institutes might well begin by studying their own organization, and to this end your Convener of Education and Better Schools will send to each Branch in the near future an article entitled, " What Should We Expect to Get For Our Provincial Dues?" It is hoped that every Branch will take time to study it, to think about it, to discuss it. Take time for discussion of every subject you have on your program. Learn to think things through. When people will take the trouble to do their own thinking, when they will take nothing for granted, the day of the demagogue will be over and the world will be a safer and a happier place. For 1938 another article will be prepared, the subject of which will be announced later. Do not hesitate to write me at any time. Yours cordially, ( Mrs. A. H.) M A R I O N M. S.

Meanwhile always report when called upon; present an outline of the life of one of the famous pioneers and the noble men and women who assisted by sacrificing and toiling to build up this wonderful Dominion of ours, and pay tribute to the splendid work they accomplished. 5.
