By Area :Couple BA" YMLD — Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy Poth :returned home on' Thursday evening after having spent a month in Florida, They left Bayfield on Feb- ruary 2 and spent the weekend in Detroit before going to .Rio. St, Lucie on the Florida East coast, Later they 'went over to St, Petersburg on the west coast Here they enjoyed -attending the Canadian Society which is marking its 50th anniversary with 671 members. • They left Florida last 'Tuesday. "Florida;" -said Mrs. Poth, a sad looking :sight. The way- side fruit stands have gone and a good 'many orehardS killed," They passed -two orchards with salamanders {stoves with pip- es). In one, the trees seemed to be alright, but in the next one two-thirds of the trees 'were dead. Mrs. L. W. Burch, a former resident of Bayfield, whose cot- tage is at Safety Harbour, managed to save her azaelias and cactus by covering them up with her best blankets. But the loongainvillea, poin- settia • and redcap amongst which the house nestled were frozen when the thermometer fell to 18 degrees, so that now the building sits out quite pro- minently. After covering up as much as she could, Mrs. Burch went to get -a drink of water and no water came out of the tap. Having lived in this climate she knew what had happened. She got a tea kettle of boiling water and thawed the pipes. Then she wrapped it well with brown paper and left a tap dripping. In the morning, Mrs. Burch was the only one in the neigh- borhood who had water on tap. In St. Petersburg, the one sausage tree which was bearing looks dead and brown. The Royal Poinciana has been hit hard, also the Australian pines which line the streets and the causeway. Half way up the state a native pointed to some Royal Palms: "A thousand dollars worth all gone", he said of the few in sight. All the fronds of the Royal Palms are dead but the citizens are hoping that perhaps a green shoot will aj- pear at the top in time. o BRUCEFIELD By MRS. H.
