They might have gotten out IF they had known how: They didn't know how. So they,. died. Or they survived, scarred and maimed. Every Canadian in every home can profit by learning the simple lessons of Lire proven• tion and fire safety„ Such is the basis 'of the fire services' appeal for the cold weather—hot fire months ahead,. It is an appeal for every man, woman and child. And it is a special appeal for the sake of, the children, who make up nearly, half the victims. 1iAYE RENEWED YOUR SIGNAL -STAR SUBSCRIPTION BELiO HEARING AID SERVICE CLINIC r 1 to 4 p.m. Carnpbel's Drug Store Phone for Free Home Appointment.

But now an exotic, glossy leaved plant caIle'd Crossandra has been—I have to admit it— imported from India of all places. Its full name Is cross- andra infuldibuliformis. It grows to three feet in India but under -cultivation does well in a five inch pot, making a bushy T2" to 18" plant. Flow- ers are produced on four-sided inflorescences.. Within these four-sided growths are numer- ous buds, each of which pro- duces a flat coral -orange flow- er. The color is said to be a combination of pink, orange, coral and yellow, which blends into a pastel shade seldom °seen in flowers. Under ideal cultural conditions the plant continues to flower for long periods. It is said to be very easy to grow from seed — seven moths to blooming — of cuttings which root in several weeks. It does. GODERICH AND DUNGANNON WIN BABY CONTEST AT. FAIR arrive are a few bulbus which will be planted in a small area which was omitted last year.
