Snell Speaks To Crediton Ladies Rev, H. J. Snell of James Street Church, Exeter, gave a very appropriate and appreciated address at the Easter meeting of the W.M.S. and W.A. in the United Church on Thursday. Worship period was led by Mrs. R. Motz assisted by Mrs. Parrott, Mrs. Mack and Mrs. G, Hill. Mrs. Mack presided for W.M.S. busi­ ness.

Sun, Flowers In Florida Editor Times-Advocate; With spring close at hand, this could be very appropriate time to take a “Look" at the trees on our streets, and observe the precedence that posts have received pense of the future many of our trees. The trees on Highway No. even from Exeter to London mute evidence of ruthless slash- . ing at the very heart and life I was served by the hostesses, Mrs of the trees, Their beauty is de- stroyed. In a few short years dead trees will replace the mis­ shapen atrocities, of what were once “Trees of Beauty and Joy" to the traveller and tourist. We fully realize the necessity of the services which these posts and wires carry—But “Can we not have both our trees and ser­ vices , at the same time," If we must have posts, could they not be placed on the sides of streets having few or no trees? In this growing construction­ conscious age, we know there are those, who are fully qualified to give instruction in the art and science of pruning trees for beauty preservation and utility. Somebody should have an “Eye" on the future welfare of the trees in the town of Exeter. It is interesting to note, that on the roadsides of many of our highways, a trees planting plan is in progress, Would it not seem feasible that a place for trees, should also* be included in the effort toward town-planning? We hope that a certain row of young elm trees, with prob­ ably 12 to 15 years of growth to retain their stature and grow­ ing on one of our Bide streets, tn a tree-less section of the town will be spared any futher topp­ ing. Nature may repair the dama- age already done and eventually restore the grace and symmetry which is native to the elm tree. Let us co-operate with nature and spare these young trees for a future beautiful tree-lined street of Elms. Name Available on Request wires at the life of apd ex- too 4— are It was a hot summer day.

And the flowers are an- describable with all the color, We were five days coming down and the mileage was 1,513 with wonderful roads, and the accommodation was the very best at the motor courts and motels. I was very sorry we didn't have your paper sent to us, when the week-end comes we do miss it very much. We visited Miami and Fort Laughterdale which is 85 miles from here. Last Thursday there’ was 8 of us left for St. Petersburg on the Gulf of Mexico also visited Bok Tower where we heard the bells, also Silver Springs, Cypress Gardens, Sunken Gardens and many other places and returned Sunday night, having had a very lovely holiday on the other coast, which was 240 miles. We will be here two more weeks and plan on being home for Easter. The weather is very warm and dry, haven't seen rain since we left home. Have enjoyed several dips in .the ocean. We take time off to go to Church on Sunday and it was packed to the doors. The people are very friendly. Just heard there was snow at Kitchener. We just can’t ima­ gine it, as we are wearing our summer clothes and making good use of sun-dresses. There seems to be a great many Canadians down here, and w*hen we passed through the customs at Buffalo were asked if there was any-one left in Canada. Mrs. I. N. Marshall.
