WOODS March came in like a lamb! One could fairly hear the frisky little ones bleating as they skipped about in the balmy atmosphere. The old adage says the month will go out like a lion. And already the "March lion" has been a lashing of his tail! Spring arrives officially in about a week's time but one Job's comforter announced that the thunderstorms the end of February were a sign of a late cold spring! Ugh! As if we haven't had enough storms to frighten the school buses off the roads! Carl spotted a crow in a garden in Clinton about the middle of February but it was very quiet. And two came and sat in the hedge at "The Hut" one day last week without announcing their presence. However others report hearing the "caw caw caw" which heralds spring. Of course some crows stay around the Bayfield River Valley and also have a rookery in Goderich Township near corn cribs. And if they do migrate they don't go very far south and come back about February 12, the late Mrs. J. E, Howard once told Lucy. Travellers to and from Florida have reported seeing robins, cardinals and other migratory birds on their way north. Eric Earl reported seeing two robins in shrubs adjoining his property on February 27. They stayed around for some time and then flew off. Let's hope they found a barn in which to sit and hide their heads under their wings during the bad storms the next day and during the week! Carl noticed three purple headed grackles as he drove to the Post Office one fine day that week but they couldn't have been ones which frequent the river bank near "The Hut" as those wise birds learned to know Carl's whistle when he puts out sunflower seeds for the cardinals - and in previous years often appeared first at the feeder. Old Mr. Cardinal has been whistling his love call but not 'with much gusto when the weather is adverse but a month ago we were surprised to note that he allowed Mrs. Cardinal to eat with him in the station instead of picking up the crumbs which fell from her master's table. On February 25 Carl brought Lucy the first snowdrops of the season. They were cheering when the wind was howling and the visibility nil! And the radio broadcasting police warnings to keep off the roads. Whether it is an early or late spring the pussy willows will soon be getting fat, Lucy overheard a remark last week to the effect that the buds were swelling on the trees. She looked at what she could see from the window and decided that they weren't any larger than they grew last fall in our second Indian summer. "It's these here fellows landing on the moon and scratching around up there what's the cause of such awful bad storms. They should keep them birds home," one hoary sage announced. And to tell the truth he may not be far wrong, for certainly circling the earth and moon as Apollo space ships do, must create different air currents which spread in the outer atmosphere just as do ripples of water when a stone is thrown into a pond or lake, There are times when all signs fail but we may be sure spring will come in its own good time and weather - whether or not! Old News-Record press reduced to scrap Bill Burke begins dismantling the feeder end of the old press which for many years printed the News-Record each week. Below, his helper Alvin Pfimmer works at the end that used to produce the finished product in the days when the News-Record was printed by the letterpress method. It was a slow and tedious method of printing and more modern equipment have replaced it. Ironically it was 11 years ago this week that the press first went into action at the News-Record. All that remains of the ancient press is a pile of strap iron. The press had been virtually unused since 19E7 when the News-Record had switched to offset printing at the modern Offset plant at GOderith. The big press had taken up valuable space and Clinton Commercial Printers finally decided to have the press broken up for scrap. The press was originally installed at the W. J. Gage tektbook plant in Toronto and came to Clinton in March, 1060. GET ATTENTION A New People for a New Age, the theme for the World's Day of Prayer service was topic of the message given by Rev, Keith Stokes, rector of St. Mark's Anglican Church, at Knox United Church last Friday. He stated that no era through the years had had so many changes as our present age when so many new discoveries and changes are taking place, He stressed that the most important task of the time was to thank God for His Goodness to all and help one another along the right road with joyful heart and thus be truly a new people for a new age. Mrs. Alfred Fry thanked the speaker for his inspiring message. The guests were welcomed by Mrs. Alfred Fry and Mrs. Bert Marsh. The ushers were Mrs. Ted East and Mrs. Ralph Munro.
