warm-hearted, charming, gay
and lively. They're eXPeeted to

And many of them are.

long-faced, mournful, moeey-

Same with spring In Canada.
It's supposed to be a day when
the blood burbles, when the
young mothers are all out With
their new baby-carriages, when
the sun smiles wildly over the
scene, when the first tiny flow-
ers poke their dainty heads up,
and the streams gurgle with
rapture, and the air smells and
feels and tastes like champagne.
And sometimes it is.
But chances are, on the
Twenty-first of Spring, you'll
be racked by 'flu, you'll have
a hole in your rubbers, your
eavestroughs will be pendulous
with ice, your car won't start,
the ice will stretch as far as
eye can see on the bay, and a
gale that would curdle the blood
of a Laplander is howling out of
the north.
The Liman United Church
parsenage was the setting at
3 pm Saturday, March 7,. for a
double ring marriage ceremony,
when the pastor, the Rey. Pi

The groom's sister, Mrs.

Caught between the Seven,
teenth of Ireland and the
Twenty-first of Spring, I was in
a quandary about a topic for
this week's epistle, (A quendary
is a cross between an Irish bog
and the first day of spring in
Canada)
Come to think of it, the two
have a lot in common: the Irish
and spring in this country, You
never know what to expect. You
may be in for a bout of weeping,
a hurricane of abuse, or a blaet
of hot air, from either.
perhaps it is this unpredic-
tability that makes the company
of the Irish and the coming of
spring in Canada such a constant
source of bewilderment, delight
and despair. I speak as an
expert, My wife is half Irish
and I've battled my way through
a good few of those Eskimo's
nightmaree-efirst day of spring
—in this land.
I never know any more than
the kids do, whether my wife
is going to hit me or kiss me.
And I never know whether the
twenty-first of March is going
to wrap me in a great voluptuous
embrace or flay me with a wind
that would freeze the brains of
a brass monkey.
There's a great deal of myth
in the popular conception of
those tricky twins, the Irish and
spring in Canada.
Irishmen are supposed to be
bubbling over with the juices of
