Scarborough Cana Conference Oddly enough the happiest sign at recent Cana Conferences has been a little initial confusion. The enthusiastic attendance has been much in excess of that expected. At the last Conference held recently in the Bedford -Morley Park district 150 people attended. Now the stage is set for what is hoped will be another successful Conference in the SCARBORUGH DISTRICTS. Already this week a third preliminary meeting will have been concluded. At these meetings a cross-section of families has beets contacted to introduce them to the work of the Conference and to sound out the problems that will be brought forward. THE PROGRAMME FOR THIS COMING WEEK IS AS FOLLOWS: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 7.30 p.m.: The Conference will get under way with discussion .groups. The result is that everyone is participating in friendly informality from the first few minutes of the session. The formal talk for the evening will be by a priest on the subject: "The Family Today." This talk will not solve problems, but will try to uncover some of the tensions that plague married life. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 7.30 p.m.: The Conference will deal with the obvious concern of all homes, the rearing of young children. A doctor of Child Health with much practical experience will be on hand to lead the session on this occasion. The place for the Conference is St. John's School, Scarborough Beach Road. A fee of 2/6 per person will cover the six sessions. Young children have been planned for and arrangements are under way to care for them at the school so that both parents can attend the Conference conveniently. Cana Conferences are for married people. The atmosphere is Catholic, but non-Catholics are quite welcome. Instruction is not the purpose of the Conference. It sets out to create an atmosphere in which married people can compare their problems and offer their advice. Every husband and wife is thus qualified to talk; all have something to learn. Discussion and questions are the keynote of the sessions and the CATHOLIC SOCIAL MOVEMENT, the sponsor of these Cana Conferences, has been working hard for months on the technique of handling these items with smooth and informal leadership in the groups.
