Photo by Deb Parsons Odds 'n ends By ELAINE TOWNSHEND You hid behind the skirts of March, which came in like a lamb and went out like a lamb — an unusual phenomenon for the month. You tiptoed through the flowerbeds and smiled when you saw the tulip and daf­ fodil stalks pushing strongly through the earth. You smiled even more broadly as you watched gardeners preparing to set out plants and farmers pulling plows out of sheds. You chuckled when humans packed away their winter coats and boots. I’ll bet you laughed out loud when yours truly left her good boots in London the other day and thought, “I probably won’t need them anyway.” You grinned when i many surprises Choir visits Trivitt event motorists replaced the winter tires on their cars with summer tires, and you rubbed your hands together gleefully when you spotted sun-tanned vacationers returning home. You smirked when we complained about the mud, because you knew we would have more than mud to contend with before long. Earthlings have such short memories! You knew you could rely on us to forget the April blizzards of recent years. We looked at the calendar, the sun and the grass, listened to the birds and assumed spring was here to stay. You played with us one day by sending a sudden burst of wind and snow, but the snow melted within a few hours. “That’s the tail end of winter,” we sighed. “Glad it’s over”. But two or three nights later you jumped from a corner of the dark sky, howling, “Surprise, Sur­ prise!” From your bag of tricks, you pulled thunder and lightning. A thunderstorm in spring is not unusual, but lightning that slashed through steady snowflakes was a unique sight to most human eyes. After the thunderstorm, you sent a vicious wind to howl and prey and lash. It blew tree limbs onto power lines throwing thousands of Ontario households into darkness and cold. To add to the fun, you made the snowflakes almost as hard as hail, and for awhile, threatened to coat the whole dreary scene with ice. The night passed to reveal a white hazy dawn that we had not expected to see until January 1980. You craked the whip with vengeance causing trees to sway and houses to creak. When you spotted a hapless motorist on the road, you played a game of now you see it, now you don’t, with him. You listened with glee to the hodge podge of radio reports of schools closed, buses returned, meetings postponed and spring teas cancelled. I’ll bet you chortled when Bell Canada officials pleaded with shut-in residents to restrict their long distance phone calls to important ones and emergencies. In our panic to talk to someone, anyone, we overloaded phone lines and threw ourselves into the danger of being communication as heat and light. Weather reports local radio stations the same: “Cold wind and blowing snow have reduced visibility .to nil; roads are snow-packed and slippery. If you don’t have to go out, don’t" “Snow accumulation could reach 12 to 15 centimeters; no let-up is in sight for at least 10 to 12 hours." One radio personality saved a lot of time and breath by reporting: “The news to the hour. The weather? Bad!" Some people were saying this was the worst storm of the winter. Two days earlier the same people thought spring was here. But you knew better. Surprise! Surprise] without well as on all sounded howling Frank Triebner, Exeter, is a patient in South Huron Hospital.

In the fall of ’78 we visited the church to do research for a history project. On Passion Sunday, Aprjl 1, 1979, the Intermediate Choir (Grades 7 and 8) of Exeter Public was honoured to represent the school by singing during the service. The choir, conducted by Mrs. Joan Perrie and ac­ companied by pianist Mrs. Lois Ottewell sang several selections: "Everything is Beautiful”, Schubert’s "Sanctus" and a collection of Negro Spirituals. In recognition of Passion Sunday, Hymn 0 Sacred Head was sung. Bible readers Laurie Willert and Pauline DeVries par­ ticipated in the service. As members of the choir we felt that singing at Trivitt was a rewarding and unique experience. It left us with a good feeling inside and we thoroughly enjoyed singing there. On behalf of the choir we would like to thank Rev. Anderson for inviting us to sing. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank all those who came to support us. This experience has certainly left us with many pleasurable memories that we will not forget.
