The radio weatherman forecast a skilter of snow on Monday just to remind'us that winter is in the cards, too. But with thunder storms and other signs of nature we may have mild weather for some time! On November 12, a lady bug flew around the chandelier for awhile. (Remember the rhyme we used to recite when children: “Lady bug! Lady bug! Fly away home.' Your house is on fire. Your children alone’”). It may have come in on the ’ “last rose of summer" which shed its petals on the table in a few days. How many “last roses of summer’’ there have been this year, Lucy doesn’t know! She has lost count, but despite the frost last week another fat Diamond Jubilee bud with apparently every intention of opening,' was placed before her on Sunday; and there are more buds in the garden. Mrs. Charles Bell reports buds on her tea roses, too, so it is probably not uncommon here. And she has not yet been able to. lay down her red climbing rose as it still ’has blossoms and the leaves are green and healthy. (Perhaps it Will be like one year Lucy .recalls when a child. There were pink roses in : bloom in Mrs. Hewson’s garden on December 10, a bright sun- i shiny day. ■ ,. . . -•..., * However, the seasons seem to be- a bit confused this year. For some time there have been blossoms on Bell’s astra- » chan apple tree. Tn fact there were blossoms and ripe fruit on it at the same time aping the orange trees of the south! This week Mrs. (Bell picked a twig, off which fell the last blos­ som petal. But what surprised Lucy was that little apples were commencing to grow at the end of the calyx just as in the spring. ’ Taking the place of a rose in her favourite bud vase are three pretty pussy willow twigs. "Mr.” brought them into the house ten days ago .to show Lucy the little silver pussies peek­ ing out from under their protective shield. And those not “sprouting” are such a pretty combination of the delicate pink and green shades of spring! • ' Looking out towards that willow tree as she Wrote, Lucy witnessed a battle for a place on the suet feeder which hangs from a bough. .' ( '1'''■■■ ■First a big black squirrel was hanging upside down pick­ ing bits out between the wires. Suddenly it spurted off and Lucy looked for a cat or a dog. No, it was a measly little red squirrel end its .partner. They kept possession of the feeder. . , Once the black squirrel came back and there was a battle. . The red finally chased the black along the limb and it may ' have bitten it. And all this time a Downie Woodpecker sat bn a limb overhead awaiting his turn. It came when a caller : arrived at “The Hut” and red took off. Then the squirrels went back to the scene again, but a heavy shower of rain sent woodpecker and squirrels to cover. Needless to say, Lucy is not pleased that this, pair of red squirrels seem to be hanging around the bam. They are such mischievous; irresponsible little animals, busy chewing holes where there is: no need for one. The rabbits about “The 'Hut” are a pest as far as garden , vegetables and flowers are concerned. Perhaps the abundant , crop of carrots, once the. wire fence was removed, distracted their attention from a row of crisp little lettuce heads which “Mr.” gathered before the heavy frost last week. When Lucy heard that the spring-flowering crocuses were up on the south side of the house, two weeks ago, she insisted on moth balls being laid beside them so that the rabbits wouldn’t eat them. Last spring they cleaned off most of the crocuses, besides nibbling the tulips. She, heard ; over CKNX radio broadcast that moth balls would keep them .away. After "Mr.’s” experience with moth balls, and mice, Lucy wonders if rabbits are really, allergic to camphor or if it were just coincidence with the lady who reported it, that they avoided her spring flowering bulbs after she’d scattered moth balls amongst the flowers. ...............

Pausing for a moment to think of jt —i Montreal is in a most strategic location for the greatest show on earth. It is the world’s largest inland seaport, home of the world’s two largest transportation cor­ porations, and on the interna- ’ tiional air map, Montreal is the air-crossroads of the world! Now; with the opening diay of April 28 a half-year away, en­ thusiasm for Expo is mounting as a •steadily and rapidly- increasing rate, in the city of Montreal itself, throughout Quebec province generally, and Expophiilia is spreading all across this country. From the .outset, and through the preliminary period of gesta­ tion, a great deal of the Expo story had. to be taken on faith. True, the International Exhib­ itions Bureau had authorized an Exhibition of the First Cate­ gory outside of Europe for the very first time — but the veryvery first time — but the very\ magnitude1 of the undertaking ! was toe-staggering for many to grasp, knd the task of develop­ ing man-made areias in the mighty St. Lawrence River ap­ peared to some too great to be capable of achievement. During the first week of Oct­ ober, however, the word was flashed: Expo will be ready time! ' Immediately there was great upsurge of interest in .parts of Canada, so great upsurge in fact, that the over­ all total in the attendance fore­ cast was upped from 30,000,000 to 35,000,000. And on the fabulous site, like miushi’Ooms on a spring lawn, the ‘ Theme buildings; the Na­ tional Pavilions, bridges and harbors, underground surface­ level and overhead transporta- ■ tion systems are springing into View as if by magic, in all their weird and wonderful forms. Many' Canadians visited the Chicago, Seattle and Neiw York Worlds Fairs — but these were largely commercial and not sanctioned by the Internauonal Exhibitions Bureau. Some Can- on. a all an adians visited the Paris and Brussels Exhibitions, but these were in Europe, and travel was a costly business. Expo '67 is In Canada, Expo ’67 is next summer ■—- with Montreal’s location and today’s modern transportation, Expo ’67 is at every Canadian’s door; Stop, Looking over the long list of fabulous, features being 'pre­ pared for the visitors to Expo, one realizes immediately that superlatives have lost their meanteg in the attempt to do justice to a great many of the individual exhibits. Never be­ fore has the genius of so many lands been assembled at one place at one time. A diay, a week, even a month Would not suffice to see every phase of all exhibits being set up for Montreal’s ’greatest .show on earth' — but in full realization of. this, arrange­ ments have been made so that the visitor may select, and having selected, be freely trans­ ported to the land of his or 'her desires. Daily there are news bomb­ shells aibdUt Expo — the possi­ bility that US President John­ son will open the American Pavilion for example — and 'weekly in this column Will be gathered the most tiki luting of the titbits, so that the man-te- the-isltreet in each and every Canadian town and city will be kept abreast of the latest and best at Expo as1 plans are made .for a Visit to “the greatest show on .earth” that opens April 28, 1967 and continues until October 27, 1967, seven days a' week from 9. a.m. to 11:30 p.m. and with the enter­ tainment area open until 2:30 ■a.m. ” ■ » ’ (Address correspondence to Tracy S.
