Re -United After 50 Years,.
Seaforth Lady Tells of Trip
Mrs. R. Dalrymple, Egmondville,
has returned to her home after
spending four months in England
visiting relatives. On December
llth Last year she was reunited
with her sister, Mrs. Harrington,
whom she had not seen for 50
years. In a series of letters, of
which this is the first, she tells of
her visit.
I made my headquarters with
my sister at Southcourt, Aylesbury,
and also visited with the remain-
ing Varley relatives in Heversham,
Westmoreland and Lancaster.
From there I went to Kendal,
Grasmere, Ambleside. At Gras-
mere the grave of the poet Woods -
worth is marked by a simple slate
stone, with the inscription: Wil-
liam Wordsworth; 1850; Mary
Wordsworth, 1859. Tucked away
in the trees, near the old road to
Ambleside, is Dove cottage. Here
Wordsworth lived from 1799-
1
1808. In the northeast corner of
the church are three stained glass
windows, the principal one of
which is a memorial to the poet
Wordsworth, presented by a num-
ber of friends and admirers, both
English and American, as the fol-
lowing record shows: 1853: In
Menibriam Guilielmi Wordsworth,
P.C;, amatores et amici Angli
partim Anglo-Americani.
There is a field overlooking
Rydal Waters which in the spring
is covered with daffodils and is
called Dora's field. Rydal is rich
in association with the lake poets
and, particularly with the Words -
worths. Among the gifts in Amble-
side church is a Bible, prayer
book and altar books, given by
Mrs. Wordsworth, wife of the poet,
in his • memory.
Rydal Mount was the home of
the poet for 37 of his 80 years.
Mr. Wordsworth was created Poet
Laureate at Buckingham Palace in
the year 1845. On the west wall of
the church at Ambleside is a mural
painting done by Gordan Ransom
in 1944. Mr. Ransom was a pupjl
of Dr. E. W. Tristram, a noted
authority on mediaeval wall paint-
ings, who was on the staff of the
Royal College of Art at the time
it was in Arnbleside during the
1939-1945 war. Ile began painting
the mural early in 1944 and com-
pleted it in four months. It was
unveiled by the Principal of the
Royal College of Arts and dedicat-
ed by the Bishop of Carlisle on
July 20 of that year. The painting
is 26 feet long and about 12 feet
high, and has in it 62 almost life-
sized figures, including. portraits
of the Vicar (the Rev. H. A.
Thompson) and Verger. It depicts
scenes of the Rush bearing festi-
val
The work was carried out in
powder colors, with an oil emul-
sion, and is painted directly on
the wall plaster, which was care-
flzlly prepared with a gesso ground.
The artist has been most success-
ful in combiningaccuracy of de-
tail and 'charming colors with a
dignified treatment. His picture
has been seen and admired by.
thousands of people, and there is
no doubt that interest in the cere-
Why Early Varieties?. R .
-One may have wondered why so"
much stress is placed on early
varieties in the Canadian seed cat-
alogue. The answer is simple: be-
cause our Canadian season is
short.
Once upon a time and not so
long ago at that, there was mighty
little in the way of flowers and
vegetables that we could plant
with any hope of success except in
a few balmier spots in Canada.
Garden corn and• tomatoes were
out. So were cucumbers, melons,.
peppers, squash. As for flowers
our grandmothers hardly ever
heard of petunias, chrysanthe-
mums, zinnias, and all sorts of
other things that we take for grant-
ed today. These plants took too
long to grow and develop in our
comparatively short frost -free sea-
son. So the' plant breeders got
busy and started producing corn
and tomatoes that would be ready
for the table in 70 and 80 days in-
stead of over a 100. And they bred
flowers that would bloom in a mat-
ter of a five or six weeks instead
of two or three months. The faster
they grew the farther north we
could grow them, until now it is
possible to have flourishing gar -
dent right up to the Arctic Circle.
But the farther we live north the
more important it is to plant,quick-
ly maturing varieties. a

For Convenience, a Kitchen Garden
Even in grandfather's time when
practically all the vegetables re-
quired were home grown there was
a special place near the back door
which was known as the kitchen
garden. Here were planted those
vegetables which were needed fre-
quently and in a hurry, while the
big standard things like•potatoes,
eorn, beets, turnips and such were,
usually grown in a field farther
away.
Now in modern times with all
sorts of shopping centres few peo-
ple grow their main vegetable re-
quirements, but, many of them are
finding that the old kitchen gar-
den idea is still as -useful as ever.
It is much handier to be able to
pull an onion or a few carrots or
a head of lettuce whenever we take
the notion, than to have to go away
down to the' store.
Even where space is., very lim-
ited and we can only afford say a
dozen feet or so each -way, it is
amazing what a variety of vege-
tables we can grow. A few rows of
big yielding beans, a hill or two
of • cucumbers, twenty feet or .so
of carrots, and much less' than this
of onions, lettuce, radish will give
es many meals and salads with
practically no .effort and of a qual-
ity. which we simply cannot 'obtain
in any other way. The kitchen gar-
den too is a fine place for a few`
of the old fashioned herbs, for a
clump of parsley, chives and per-
haps of rhubarb and it an ideal
place, too, to grow a few rows of.
special flowers for cutting or bou-
quets.
Many people make a practice'of
growing all their sweet peas, glad-
iolus and other flowers with showy
blooms but not particularly attract
tive foliage, in rows in 'the vege-
table garden, where they can be
cut more 'freely and will be hand-
led more easily.
It was said: "He who is of a
calm and happy nature will hardly
feel...the pressure of age, but to
him who is of an opposite disposi-
tion, youth and age are equally a
burden."—Plato.
