Margaret birch, Provincial Secretary for Social Development William Davis, Premier Ontario By ELAINE TOWNSHEND Last Saturday was the time to change the old clock on the wall again. 'Fall back, spring ahead' is a little reminder I use twice a year to help me turn the hands in the correct direction. Otherwise I'd probably pop. up an hour early in the fall and an hour late in the spring. I also try to maintain the habit of changing the clock before going to bed.

Yes folks, no matter what the thermometer may say, spring is here. The week of warm weather in mid-April made a believer out of me, and judging from the bicyclists, gardeners and housecleaners, I wasn't the only one. Did you ever notice what a busy, noisy season spring can be when it finally bur- sts? It isn't just the buds clothing the tree branches, or the'croci blooming in the flowerbeds or the robins playing tug-of-war with the worms. People are affected, too. Homemakers for example, Out come the mats and the drapes and the buckets and mops until the entire holm is sparkling. As yet, I haven't been bitten by the spring cleaning bug. (I don't think blowing the dust off a silk rose and attacking a cobweb can be classified as serious work.) Gardeners armed with their rakes, hoes, shovels and seedlings we're ready for spring planting before the ground was. Meanwhile the dead leaves on lawns were raked, and dried on several evenings, bonfires smoked. Rumor has it that a certain someone, who shall remain nameless to protect me, took his lawn mower apart and is now wondering how to put it back together so he can take it to the repair shop to be fixed. How many garages are now tidy and swept clean not because of the spring cleaning fever but because the kids' bikes were at the back behind the pile of wood for the fireplace or the screens or the boxes of junk? Besides the bikes out came balls and bats, racquets and sundry other spring things. In the sky kites fly on breezy days. Motorbikes and con- vertibles with tops down are back on the scene. Out of closets and drawers come spring clothes in fresh light colours, indicative of the season. We may shiver through a few frosty nights, but when we make the move to spring, wear, we don't ch- ange our minds, With winter boots, I do a famous disappearing act. Now you see them, now you don't, as I throw them in a closet and slam the door before they roll back out. Fall cleaning will be an excellent time to tidy closets. Don't be confused by the hockey games on tv; they could continue until the first of June. I'm told. This is the season for baseball, but watching baseball in the afternoon and hockey at night gives spring a new twist. If you feel a few shivers or see a few snowflakes some of these days, don't worry. Spring has sprung and will unfold in its usual busy way. Kinettes set plans for show The Exeter Kinette club held their April meeting at the home of Kinette Helen Klages April 22. There were eight Kinettes present and one guest, Barbara. McKnight.
