IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN The sap is funning and Earl Schilbe, for one, is right out there with his pails hung on the maples to catch that precious liquid we all love so much when it is processed. During a __recent visit to Mexico a very dear Mexican friend expressed a desire to taste real Canadian Maple Syrup. He had that pleasure last year when we took a half gallon down to him. It was considered a rare treat, indeed; We=do take so much for granted, don't we? BOGGED DOWN? Well, unless you pay atten- tion to the warning signs and (10 not strip at the barricades on several portions of our county roads you could get bogged down. Although Joe Potter is working on it he seerns to be fighting a losing battle in places, because as fast as he can pour gravel into the thirsty old earth it literally gulps it down. Cheer.up, the robins are back, the daffodils are shrugging off their winter garb and the geese were honking their way north this morning. Spring is here. (I hope) - in small print. RABID OR NOT? When Provincial Police Con- stable Bill Wilson answered a call to a local barn this week to investigate''the,,strange antics of a racoon found in the stable where a young lady was ten- ding her horse, he was faced - with the question of whether or not the" animal was rabid. In- stead of the racoon running for cover when the young lady en- tered 'the stable, it simply stayed and looked on, curiously. It just may have been simply curiosity, but Con- stable Wilson felt that rabies are justs.too dangerous to trifle with so the poor racoon had to go. An oldadage tells us "Curiosity killed a 'cat" this time it was a racoon. b New Democratic Party leader for Ontario Stephen Lewis was in town last Thursday campaigning on behalf of Huron NDP candidate Paul Carroll.
