On Saturday you may have
noticed some unusual flowering
shrubs being transported in cars.
They were some of the
decorations which transformed
the auditorium at CHSS into a
ballroom Friday evening and the
kids who spent hours preparing
the flowers, trees, etc. hauled
some of them home as reminders
of their labours. These same
young people should be gratified
to know that favourable
comments have been heard
about their English Country
Garden theme.
Mrs. Keith Miller was the
hostess for the A.C.W. of St.
James, Middleton held Thursday
evening March 18, with nine
members, two visitors and the
Rector, The Rev. E. J. B.
Harrison, present.
The President, Mrs. Edward
Wise opened with a poem
"Strangers are Friends We
Haven't Met". Mrs. Wise
outlined the highlights of the
World Day of Prayer services
held locally. Mr. Harrison was in
charge of the Devotions, on the
Lenten theme with a
commentary on "The Sermon
on the Mount". "The Lenten
period is lent to us for a
discipline of spirit".
Mrs. Miller gave the
Secretary's report. The roll call
word was "promise". Mrs. Dutot
reported for the financial and
Mrs. Cole for Dorcas Supply. A
crib quilt is in progress.
Letters of invitation to all our
church women to attend our

tangible results as yet.
"The Annual" Diocesan
meeting of the A.C.W, will be
held in St, James, Westminster,
London on Thursday, April 29.
There will also be a workshop
held at Huron College May
14-16 with Dean O'Drescall in
charge.
A sum of money was voted
for the memorial to the late
Bishop of Huron, the Rt. Rev.
George N. Luxton, of London.
During the evening Mrs. .J.
Storey favoured with two piano
instrumentals, These were
variations on well-known hymns
and were much enjoyed.
A Quiet Day of Retreat will
be held in St. George's Goderich
on April 1 for A.C.W. members.
The Rev. Russell will be in
charge. Sister Beryl of the Sisters

discussed.
Sunday , April fourth will
feature a special evening of
pictures at 8 p.m. in St. James
Church.

Cameron of ensall a
widely-known organist, will
favour with special musical
selections. This evening is
sponsored by the choir and
Sunday School of St. James and
anyone interested is urged to
attend. Mrs. Keith Miller read a
delightful article on "The
Shamrock and the Trinity", as a
concession to St. Patrick's Day.
This legend records the
sermon preached by the Holy St.
Patrick himself, in which he
simplifies the doctrine of the
Triune God, by using the familar
shamrock leaf as an illustration.
This reading was contributed by
Mrs. A. To lehard.
Mr. Harrison closed the
meeting with prayer. Lunch and
a social time was enjoyed, with
Mrs, E. Wise assisting the
hostess.
We couldn't help wondering
as our small procession of cars
lurched down the rocky seventh
concession flanked on each side
"'l3Fvhe most impressive walls of
snow we've seen, if they would
be gone by our April meeting or
be a permanent feature of the
landscape like the Berlin Wall!

The seed catalogues are coming out earlier every year. Hight afte
Christmas the first one arrived at "The Hut". It might have corn
sooner had it not been held up by the Christmas rush. Nobod
wanted to look at it then anyway. We were all top busy enjoying th
Christmas tide with relatives and friends.
The next one made its appearance right after New Years, It w
very gay with coloured illustrations of everything from roses t
rhubarb including flowering shrubs. "Shall I throw •it in the wast
basket?" inquired Carl with a smirk,
"Oh, you might as well keep it," replied Lucy. "I don't want t
look at it today, but someday I may." She can while away hour
anytime looking at seed catalogues even if the illustrations an
always much superior to the flowers, vegetables, etc., which result
from planting the seeds.
Lucy had vowed to herself that she would have the gardens seeded
down in grass when they ran to weeds last year. But somehow or
other the resolve was shelved, And when the wind was howling and
one couldn't see the bird-feeding station for whirling snow, and Carl
Was bored when confined to the house, Lucy. said, "Let's look at the
seed catalogues,"
They both became so interested in them, comparing varieties with
those in 1970 catalogues. Carl had listed four varieties of squash to
be planted and Lucy already had a variety which a friend in
California had sent her last year, but they arrived too late for
planting. Every since she spent six months in Tucson, Arizona in
1942, Lucy had looked for that variety of squash. The lady with
whom she boarded served these little rosette-like squash in white
sauce. Like avacado, Lucy acquired a taste for them.
Carl does not like squash at all. He declares that he cannot eat it
But last year he saw a recipe for zuchini served with cheese sauce
and tried it. He said that the cheese disguised the flavour so he
consented to eating a bit late in the season. However, Lucy has
friends who will help eat the other varieties.
Carl tends to try the new and unusual in vegetables. Lucy likes
sticking to the tried and true. But of course the vegetable garden is
Carl's so he'll have a few odd varieties.
One of his specials is long cucumbers, the vines of which he traim
to a trellis. Lucy cannot eat any raw vegetables. However, someone
told Carl that he could slice the cucumbers, place them on a cookie
sheet in the deep freeze before storing them in a. bag. And they
proved to be very palatable when eaten after thawing.
Carl never liked parsnips,in fact after cooking them for years fol
Lucy, he acknowledges with a smile that he likes them now.
(Potatoes, peas, and beans were formerly a sufficient variety fo
him). Undoubtedly there will be parsnips in the garden this year —
not just three or four! And the old stand-bys, carrots and beets, wil
also be there.
And this year, he is really going in for onions — five varieties. Car
likes green onions but not in cooking. But Lucy hopes that there'l
be a few left for winter so that they won't have to beg an onion oti
two from a neighbour for the stuffing for the Christmas goose o
duck when Carl has forgotten to buy some.
Carl's favourite flowers are asters. And he takes great pride irl
growing superb blooms. And he'll plant and care for them.
Lucy's besetting sin may be said to be ordering and planting pots
of seeds (Carl does them under her supervision on the dining room
table) when she has no one to care for them. And this year she
yielded to temptation again. She never can resist the lure of the seed
catalogues.
Of course this larger than ever garden is all in the planning stage
The seeds may never be planted, But it has been fun planning it
anyway!
