Duncan, who- rose from a $9 -a -week factory hand to one of Canada's best known executives, guided Ontario Hydro through an important period of its history. Highlights of his term as Chair- man included the completion of the great international power de- velopment on the St. Lawrence River and the increasing emphasis on fuel -burning power plants --such as construction of large conven- tional coal -burning projects, like Lakeview, and the beginning of Canada's first nuclear generating stations. Mr. Duncan's resignation was announced in t h e Legislature March 29 by Premier Leslie Frost, who accepted it with regret. His successor, who will assume office in May, is W. Ross Strike, of Bow- manville, a member of the Com- mission since 1944. Mr. Frost said he wanted to thank Mr. Duncan for the service he had rendered, "in line with the work of his lifetime which has been devoted to the development of our country." When Mr. Duncan assumed the chairmanship, he agreed to do so for a period of three years, the Premier said. At the expiration of this period in 1959 he planned to retire, but was persuaded ,to continue in office for an additional 18 months. Mr. Duncan agreed to the exten- Something New Will Add` nterest • Many experienced gardeners make it a regular practice to add something entirely new every year. In this way they discover flowers and vegetables, that they never knew existed before, or would grow in their garden, and they discover new favorites, too. There are all sorts of new things hsted in the seed catalogues today that were not there five years ago or ten or, in a few cases, even in last year's publication. Usually there are a few pages especially devoted to these intro- ductions.Some of them come from the All -America trials, where the most promising new varieties of flowers and vegetables are test- ed at trial grounds all over North America, and special awards made to the very best. One yr two of these planted in the garden will add fresh interest. And there has been steady im- provement in run-of-the-mill things too. There are brighter, bigger, more fragrant flowers; there are crisper, earlier, more disease re- sistant vegetables. that will reach five to eight feet at maturity need at least 10 to 12 feet between if they are to develop in normal and beautiful fashion. As for trees in the small city lot and with a one -storey house es- pecially, big ones have no place at all. Far better to select small sorts like the Mountain Ash, Jap- anese Maple or some of the many blossoming ornamentals and leave the big fellows to the parks. And most fair sized annual flowers and vegetables want room too, at least half as far• apart in the row or garden as they will be tall at maturity. Birds Are Garden Allies On balance, most birds do far more good in the garden than any possible harm. They help keep down bugs and eat weed seeds, and they are beautiful and ' inter- esting to have around. Shrubs and trees, bird houses, feeding stations and watering or bathing pools, all will help to bring wrens and orioles and robins. But we can do more than this. There are, certain bright flowers that have a special appeal for humming birds. There are all sorts of shrubs with bright and edible fruit or seeds that will in- vite cardinals. There are others that are particularly attractive for the goldfinch. It pays well to stu- dy the special likes of the birds, to plant things that will produce food and shelter in winter as well as in summer The varieties of corn, peas, car- rots, potatoes, tomatoes and al- most everything else are not the same as grandma used to grow. If grandma were here herself and tasted them she would be the first to admit it. Today's vegetables have far more quality. Moreover, there are far more of• them that Canadians everywhere can grow. Thanks to earlier and hardier var- ieties we can grow tomatoes, mel- ons, cucumbers, and such things in lots of places where they wouldn't have had a chance to mature say 20 years ago. Not so long back even garden corn could only be grown safely in a few of the warmer sections of Canada. Now it can be grown almost' up beyond the Arctic Circle if one is careful. Little Acorns Make Big Trees When planting trees, shrubs, or• even what will eventually be good sized annual flowers and vege- tables, many people seem to for- get that those things will grow. As a result they crowd far too closely together and far too near sidewalks, walla and fences. Then when the shrubs or trees really start to develop they have to slash them back and make them lopk unsightly. Also, if shrubs or trees are planted only a foot or two from the wall of the house, they are sure to die out at the bottom and the main stem or trunk will grow away at an angle from the wall seeking the light.

DUNCAN sion, despite plans he had made to devote his attention to the in- ternational scene, Mr. Frost said. Mr. Duncan's acceptance of the chairmanship was based upon his conception of public service, the Premier continued. "James Ddncan, I think, will be assessed as one of 'the great, un- selfish Canadians who have served our country well ... He has serv- ed our country in peace and in war, and I know that ,I am ex- pressing the thoughts of our peo- ple when I extend to him our heartfelt thanks for this, his most recent service as Chairman of the Hydro -Electric Power Commis- sion, . " He said he has always been in- terested in the effects of Com- munism on the Western World, and on Canada and its future in particular. He plans an on -the -spot survey of developments in various countries throughout the world, es- pecially those, which have recently obtained independence. He said he would make these visits as a busi- nessman, with no official affilia- tions. Mr. Duncan, who will be 68 in May, said he does not plan to "retire," but hopes to remain active. His immediate plans in- clude a two-month cruise of the Adriatic. Mr. Strike, 65, has almost three decades of experience in the elec- trical utility field. He was ap- pointed a Commissioner in 1944 while president of the Ontario Municipal Electric Association, and was named first vice-chairman in 1956. He first entered public life in 1932 as mayor of Bowmanville, and since that year he has been a member of the Bowmanville Public Utilities Commission. When making the announcement, Mr. Frost said: "Mr. Strike is a man of great experience, fine per- sonality and good judgment, and I am sure as Chairman of the Com- mission he' -will carry on the tra- ditions of service and development which commenced with the first chairman, Sir Adam Beck."

Two lines of hose were connected and quickly put into action, one at the end of the building and one on the roof. —Blyth Standard.

Though the Clinton Public School Board has been able to decrease their requisition to Town Council for funds, by what will amount to about two mills, the Clinton Dis- trict Collegiate Institute Board's needs will increase by just about the same as far as Clinton town is concerned. This balance in needs of educational institutions should coincide well with Mayor W. J. Miller's prediction that the mill rate for town taxes will be kept the same as last year..CDCI Board has approved a budget for $310,756 for•the 1961 year. Of this provincial grants and fees from RCAF Station Clinton will pay $163,944. This leaves a balance of $146,811 to be raised through muni- cipal taxes. The amount required is about $26,836 more than last year.—Clinton News -Record. Injured in Tractor Crash.
