Cook, whom I know and ho represents for me the any other fine citizens who re dedicated and determined their efforts to deter crime. hese men spend long hours in esearch as well as in other spects of the business to try to ake sure crime does not pay, Yet, the sad fact remains hat we still have burglaries, ven in places which have in- tailed good systems. There are hieves who are equally edicated in learning how to y-pass or neutralize the ystems. It is of considerable con- olation to me that professional hieves -- of the burglary class - spend more time in prisons hen they do out of them. But till they try. The real lesson for us, herefore is the warning against believing that there is some gimmick we can buy which will just sit back and function so we can just sit back and not func- tion. Far, we frequently fall victim to the idea that somewhere is a magic formula or machine to do our 'being" for us. How nice it would be to have some contractor build a house in which love could exist without our having to learn the disciplines of patience, kind- ness, understanding and un- selfishness. How wonderful it would be to have an educator who would structure the kind of school that we could dump our kinds in day after day and not have to teach them by precept and example, ourselves, And, you can list a hundred other fantasies of a gimmick- life! The second lesson we learn from the burglar alarm business is the urgent need of a relevant religion (that is, value- system, ethical code and sym- bolic life-style), There is so tragically large a number of people who think that he who creates things is creating wealth, while he who creates free-and-responsible (that's all one word, really) souls, is not "creating" anything. The third lesson was spoken by Him who warned against storing up treasures where thieves can break in and steal, Or Malachi's warning about stealing from God -- which is to therefore deny our youth a real belief in what our mouths profess, The Hensall Agricultural Society held their meeting last week in order to plan fqr the spring fair, and to elect a new executive. Elected as president of the society was Grant McGregor, RR 2, Kippen; first vice president, William Coleman, Kippen; second vice president, Jack Kinsman, RR 2, ,Staffs; and secretary-treasurer, Peter McNaughton, Hensall. Directors of the agricultural society are John Soldan, RR 1 Hensall; John Corbett, RR 1, Exeter; Stan Jackson, RR 2, Kippen; Ivan Forsyth, RR 2, Kippen; Elgin Thompson, Kip- pen; Lloyd Ferguson, RR 1, Hensall; Lorne Pasamore, Exeter; Jack Kinsman, RR 2, Staffa; Earl Dick, RR 2, Staffa; Harvey Coleman, RR 1, Zurich; William Coleman, Kippen; Russell Brown, Parkhill; Bruce Shapton, RR 1, Exeter; Larry Merner, RR 1, Zurich, William Decker, Zurich; John Baker, Hensall; and Lorne Hay, Hen- sail. The Hensall Spring Fair will be held June 19, starting at 6 p.m. with all of the features of former years, including the baby show, parade and livestock judging. One of the highlights will be 95 calf-club calves which are distributed among the boys and girls. in surrounding townships. More plans will be made at the March meeting of the agricultural society. Secretary-treasurer Mr. McNaughton reported that finances for the fair are "in good shape". WEDDING ANNIVERSARY SURPRISE - "Our tenants are out today," remarked Carl when he came into the bedroom to take Lucy out for lunch. Just for one second she looked at him; "Tenants"? Then it came to her, He meant his pet squirrel, Clarabelle and 'three of her offspring. Clarabelle got into the attic two years ago and these three, in varying shades of dark grey, were born there. That summer Lucy thought they were shut out when she had a board replaced on the eave, But last spring the starlings wanted in , for they, too, nested under the eave. Being more aggressive than Clarabelle, they found a place where a board on the cor- nice had rotted from the over- flow at the gutter and while Lucy was in hospital, they pecked a hole through and built their nest over the eave of the sunroom. Carl doesn't like starlings any more than Lucy, but he refused to put a board over the hole in case the old bird was sitting on the nest. And then when they left, he forgot about it until it became apparent that Clarabelle had spied that hole and introduced the three youngsters to it, Over and over again, Lucy watched the young ones run- ning up and down the lilac tree at the corner. Carl had a piece of sheet metal ready to nail over it but every time he'd go out they'd run up the tree, over the roof and very dexterously enter the hole back of the gut- ter, One day Lucy saw Clarabelle come over the barn roof and up the lilac tree. The children followed her. Her mouth was wide open and Lucy supposed she was cross with them. However, a friend told her that her checks were probably full of nuts. One day Carl heard a noise when upstairs and turned the flashlight on to look in under the slanting roof. And there sat Clarabelle with a mouthful of brown paper torn off something which had been securely wrapped in brown paper before being stored in the attic. She didn't move, just looked at Carl and he closed the door and left her there. " r" C I' ""ticitriMd". Vs °nil& of no thbstils through" rtheserap, of ;;the titia •slisitti s ^offse`ihe storage space from the overhanging eave. And he sprayed in animal repellant but those young , squirrels just poked up their heads through the aperture and looked at him. Well, then Carl decided he'd watch in the fresh snow and see when they were all out. But he never could be quite sure. And then on the sixteenth of Decem- ber he was snowed in himself for five days so he gave up the struggle. Clarabelle begs peanuts and cookies from Carl. She in- variably buried the peanuts around the maple tree. Last summer it was interesting to watch her family going over the lawn, inch by inch, like a fine toothcomb, and finding those nuts. Clarabelle likes Carl's homemade cookies better than arrow roots but often she'd run up the maple tree, deposit it and come back for more. He wondered where she put them. When the leaves came off the trees we saw that a bird's nest served as her pantry, Sometimes she'd run tip on the roof and over to Bell's cherry tree. One morning Lucy saw a skinny, black squirrel from down the street run up the young- maple tree to a bird's nest, It was evidently feeding on something in the nest, so Lucy decided it was looting one of Clarabelle's pantries. The squirrels did not store nuts on the lawn last Fall as in other years. It is said to foretell an open winter, Perhaps they knew this mild spell—June in January—was coming, for Lucy watched the youngsters running up and down the shrubs, the tall plum tree at the back of the garden and over into the soft maple in Martin's. They frolicked about, chasing each other and swinging on fine branches in the treetop. There is one thing the young squirrels have not learned yet—to get into the bird feeding station. Clarabelle runs up the iron post, catches hold of the wooden weather vane and swings herself up, as do some older squirrels which sometimes rob the station. Lucy watched one young one go up the iron post and slide down or jump down several times. But it won't be long until they learn how to swing themselves on one' claw up onto the weather vane. Sitting by the dining room window enjoying the sunshine, Lucy noticed how it shone on the periwinkle leaves at the back of the garden. Such weather seems almost too good to be true, ber no doubt we'll pay up for it before spring really arrives, Carl says, "A late Easter means a late spring." But years ago an elderly Woman who had lived on a farm all her life told Lucy that thunder in January meant an early spring. And that year the lambs were coming early, she pointed out. As a matter of fact, she was nursing one unexpected arrival in January by the open door. A little liquor added to some cow's milk warmed the half frozen little lamb up and next morning it was skipping about the kitehenobefore•heing-reetrisss , ned to its mama in the shJew fold" Ylf f. sol,set1 dainti There have been large circles around the moon and sun dogs reported recently to Lucy. They portend bad storms. One thing is certain, "We'll have weather whether or not." Let us enjoy the sunshine and balmy days while we have them. ST. ANDREW'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH REV, T. C.
