PHONE 36 ossaaanra DELEGATES TELL OF CONVENTION Horticultural Society Will Canvas • For Members The Wingham Horticultural Society held its regular monthly meeting in the Council Chamber on Monday night of this week. The list of prem­ iums to be given to members on pay­ ment of the fee of $1,00 was selected and is an especially fine list from Which to make A choice. It is expected that a house to' house canvass will be made to renew memberships and sol­ icit new members, and this will be done at once SO that an Idea Will be given of the amount of each premium to order. Reports from the 34th Annual Con­ vention held in Toronto on February 29th and Match were tead by Mrs. Dr. Ross and Mrs. T. Kew. Accord­ ing to the reports, the best attended morning session in the history of the Ontario Horticultural Association marked the opening of the Convention at the King Edward Hotel, nearly 500 being present. Mr. Carroll, the Secre­ tary, in his report said “that when a state of war was declared all thinking citizens, particularly organization of­ ficers, analysed their positions immed­ iately and contemplated changes by Which greater service ‘might be givgn to the Nation and to the Empire. Thoughts turned at once to efficiency in those activities which might be ex­ pected to make ’the greatest contribu­ tion to the war effort. We naturally pondered whether beautificatiori in its various forms might be held back for g little or decreased somewhat during the war period”. He went on to say “that the last greatt 1914-1918 might serve as a guide. Figures show­ ed that there was an increase of 70% in the number of Societies, the total membership was more than doubled and the expenditure for horticultural purposes was multiplied by 3. This may* be taken as evidence that in try­ ing times people require a hobby which affords recreation and spiritual rest. We may therefore proceed on the assurance that Horticultural Society activities are fully warranted and a well planned program would be pro­ moted with /more enthusiasm than in times of peace. Dark days may lie a- head of us. particularly those iii pub­ lic office must be on the alert for opportunities to serve. Let each do his part sb that in Canada we may continue to plant trees and shrubs in the assurance that they are not likely to be uprooted by bomb ot* shell,, or trampled by the feet of alien en-l emies.” It was '•pointed out that the past year, 1939 was considered a unigue experience for our Dominion, because the first time in history a reigning Soverign'of Our Empire, accompanied by his Queen, visited our Country. In honor of th'eir visit trees were planted, parks and lawns, homes and* high­ ways were improved, in fact at every turn something to do with Horticul­ ture‘was mentioned.
