An original idea of Dublin descendents in Metropolitan Toron- to ,the annual event attrapts about 200, with about 50 from the Dublin area. The event is an informal get-together, with little program planned. It is a time for renew- ing acquaintances. Dublin- has claimed the Seven- teenth of Ireland as its big day in past year, and up until five years ago had always celebrated in Dublin. With the move towards larger centres by many citizens, the idea of an annual reunion•` came about.

The Legion Corner (By JACK HOLLAND) Well, Comrades and friends, as promised last week in this column, I will give you the details of the big hockey -night which Jack Eis- ler, our . sports officer, has lined top for Saturday night, March 19. As we all know, the hockey season is drawing to' a close and Jack and his staff have a fine schedule lined up for Parents' Night. Now the plans 'for the playoffs are to have the teams in each group play two games each, goals to count. The first games will be played Saturday morning and the finals Saturday, night, March 19. The winners will be presented with team -trophies after each game, and individual trophies will be giv- en to the players by the donors of these beautiful prizes. ,No, moth- ers, don't worry about your young lad being away for a considerable time without food.' The Ladies' Auxiliary of the Legion are pre- pared to feed all the players after each gaine, with a good hot lunch. Both of the Legion -sponsored teams have had games out of town. The Squirts have had -three trips out of town and had a fine time. They have made neer' friends at each neighboring town. The Pee- Wees have had eight games and eight wins, so their spirits are really -soaring and the morale is tops. The hockey kids are at present selling tickets for the big night, so don't forget to pick one up, and, by the Way, the next time you are• going, past Box Furniture Store, take a moment and look over the hockey trophies in the window. You will see why there willbe so many proud youngsters in the commun- ity after March 19, when some of them will be the recipients of these prizes. So, parents, it's up to all of us to turn out and give these kids a cheer; they'll love it. There is always something hap- pening. Just before the sea•sfln's end, Jack Eisler, Big Chief to the kids, had an accident during a game last Saturday morning, and ended up with a broken ankle. Im- agine that for luck! So Jack will be conducting his coaching duties from the players' bench for the duration. So glad to see Bob Smiih back in our midst again. His .many friends wish him a speedy and complete recovery. Until next week, a thought for neer. Contrades: "At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we shall, remember them." Au revoir. brations.

In the Garden Are They Suitable For Canada Anyone •who read the"`newspapers last winter, or for that matter, during the other seasons• of the year too, knows that we have' our own climate in Canada. Actually we have several climates, ranging from the balmy to the, shall we say, brisk. For that reason the flower and vegetable seeds that we sow, the shrubs, and vines we plant and even our trees must be selected especially• to, grow well under Canadian conditions. Generally we must have vege- tables and flowers that grow quickly, come into. bloom or table size away ahead of the early, frost. And in nursery stock, too, !we can't afford to plant namby-pamby stuff that fears a bit of cold. But there are compensations.' ' Nowhere in the world is the sun warmer' or stronger than in Can- ada . during the summer and as- a result in ,the long hours of day- light in June- and July growth is far more rapid in northern Canada than it is in. tropical Mexico. But itis important that we plant things that are especially designed for the Canadian climate:- When one selects seeds from a Canadian seed catalogue, "one can be -sure that that seed is suited to Canada, that it has ' nen tes-ted under actual Canadian conditions. Plants Are Individualists Plants, like people, are individu- alists. Flowers and vegetables, shrubs and vines, even the .grasses have very real preferences when it comes to soil, shade, moisture, fertilizer, and such things that com- bine to "make growth. For steep, rather barren slopes, for instance, there are a score of special plants, mostly tiny, that thrive in such a location. These are listed in the seed .catalogue' usually under, the general heading of "Rock Garden" plants. They need very little soil or moisture and they will add color and cover to any bit of steep ground. Then there are other flowers that actually prefer shade, things like begonias, violets, pansies, lily of the valley and so on. These are just the right sort for planting on the north side• of house or wall, or other places where the ground is heavily shaded. Here too is the right place for the wild flower garden. There' is '-eeVen special grass for shady locations, , At the opposite end of the 'scale are those flowers which will hoe do well sinless they get lots of sun, things like poppies, nasturtiums, portulaca,• and many others. Most of them are not very •particular about soil•or moisture, but they do love the hot sun. Vegetables, too have preferenc- es, especially when it . comes to soil. But most of them, unlike some of the 'special flowers, pre- fer and need plenty of warm sun, On most seed packets there are notes about these special prefer- ences. The smart gardener will keep them in mind when he plans. It is estimated that more -than 90 per cent of the work of the Cana- dian Red Cross Society is done by volunteer workers.
