Some of the fruits and vege- tables used in your kitchen can make attractive house plants, if you know which to select. Most of them will not flower, hut their foliage can be very attractive. Here are a few that you might try, with suggestions from horticulturists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture on how to go about it. The next time you buy pine- apple, slice off the erown of leaves at the top of the fruit, Make the cut at the junction of the fruit and leaf bases. Insert the leaf crown in sand and keep it moist. It, will soon pro- duce roots, after which it can be potted in soil. Pineapples like a well-drain- ed open rooting medium, so he sure that there is at least all inch of coarse material, sItCh as gravel or pieces of pot, in the bottom for good drainage, The best conditions for growth are moist air, (30',F minimum temperature, and plenty of If you have avocado salad, save the seed, soak in water and remove the miter covering.

Telephone in their changeover imerations, The graduating students at SHIMS were told Friday they would have many opportunities in the job and. .community they choese following the ter- mination of their education. "'l'hese are opportunities for service," their speaker, John Gowan, area public school in- spector told them at, their banquet. "in any job. there are op- portunities, opportunities that are not written into terms ,of the contract but opportunities that are there nevertheless," he stated. "In the community where you choose to live there. will be opportunities outside of your office, store, ;factory, hos- pital or whatever it may'be." Dissecting the word service, Goman said We "S" could stand for service to an em- ployer. "Will you give him value for his money?" he questioned, "or will. you just do enough to get by from pay day to pay day?" He also pointed out to the students that they should take stock of their relationship to their teachers and their fellow students. "Are you aware that 75 percept of the people who fail in business do so not be- Mise they don't know enough about their jobs, but because they can't get along with other people?" he asked, Continuing on, Goman stated the "S." could stand for ser- vice to their community, pro- vince and country, as well as to their family and. eommun- ilY, and asked them to con- sider several questions. "Ten years from now, what will your score be on this test? Will you he one of those who never has time to lend a helping hand for a worthy pro- ject? Will you he too busy to share in shaping the future of teachers?" With the "E" standing for energy and enthusiasm, Goman urged the graduates to be ener- getic and enthusiastic about whatever they did, Pointing out that many people have achiev- ed greatness despite physical handicaps, he said, "how much more important then that those of us who are fortunate enough to he healthy should be ener- getic and enthusiastic in our activities." Need religion "I can't conceive of a full life without. religion," Goman stat- ed, in having the "R" stand for religion and reliability. "It will lend. strength and charac- ter to your daily living," he added. "Reliability means that you can be trusted," he said, "and when you prove that you can be trusted you have taken a By MRS.

Gowan questioned the gradu- ates as to whether the "I" should stand for idols or ideas. Listing several singing idols of the day, he said that dreaming of the .fame and fortune of the stars: of the moment. won't bring any dividends, but ideas and ideals can pay off hand- somely both from, the financial point of view and from the point of view of personal satis- faction. With the final "E" standing for excellence, be noted that many of the grads had made good use of their, talents, while others had been satisfied to get by, "If you aspire to success in life there can be no lower aini for you than the pursuit of excellence," he said.
