WRITERS IN SOME OTHER
papers seem to doubt whether or
not March came in, like a lamb or
a lion . . . Here in this district,
we would say that the "lamb
had s it," for Saturday, March 1,
was quite a mild day, and much
more• so than. yesterday or to-
day . . . If tradition holds,'March
should go out like a lion . .
A CLINTON MAN, GORDON. W.
Cuninghame, has kept a weather
scrapbook for many years, and
he allowed yours truly to take a
peak at it this week . . . The
winter of 20 years ago (1931-32)
was very mild indeed, and. Leap
Year Day in 1932 was like a
beautiful spring day, the mercury
going as high as 48 degrees in
the afternoon . . . But' spring
did not come early that year;
there was much snovaill in
March and six inches of snow fell
on April 13 . . . What a let-
down! . . *
"IT IS INTERESTING TO KNOW
how the weather affected the
sportsman and the farmer," re-
calls Mr. Cuninghame . • . "Flow-
er buds and fruit showed up when
they should have been sleeping.
The winter of 1931-32 certainly
was a very odd one" . . .

INJURED BY TRACTOR
Edward Percy, 11, son of Mr.
and Mrs. George Percy, Holy-
rood, was admitted to Wingham

as the result of a tractor mishap.
The boy is reported to have fal-
len off a tractor, which his older
brother was driving. The tractor
passed over his body, causing
fractures and chest injuries.
will be three other holidays this
year before the summer vacation
period commences . The
Queen's birthday is on Monday,
April 21; Victoria Day is Satur-
day, May 24; and the Queen has
decided to celebrate her "official"
birthday on Thursday, June 5,
the celebration in Canada to be
subject to the wishes of the Can-
adian GovernMent, not yet an-
nounced . *
NOW THAT THE QUEEN'S "OF-
ficial" birthday is to be June 5,
we see no reason why the Can-
adian Government should not
eliminate May 24 as a public
holiday, since Canada is the only
nation within the Commonwealth
which still observes that date a;,/
a public holiday . . , The much-
revered Queen Victoria has been
dead for half a century . . .

for community service was the
