clown; a jester, and I try to put
that through to the people in the

show is like a dream world for
them."
Mary said she gives her all to
the people who come to see her.
"It's like you say to yourself,
`Here we are, and we're going
to do our best, for you,' " 'she
explained.
Far in the future, Mary sees
her goal as a skating teacher.
The Ice *Capades has chalets
throughout the United Sates,
and, May said she would likely
vstarrr teach in one' of these.
For the present, she wants t%
stay with the Ice Capades - and
one thing is for certain.
"111 be in skating forever and
forever," she said.' After two
weeks, I just have to get the
skates back on. "So long as I
have two legs to stand on, I'll be
skating."

Duringthe recentIce `a ._ .,.
show in London last week, Mary's younger sisterM
Kathy had a chance to go back stage and visit with her sister. The show is presently
in Kitchener until Sunday night.

"TICKLE MOTHER EARTH
WITH A HOE,
AND SHE,WILL LAUGH
WITH A HAR-VEST."
-So said Jerrold, but we all
know that it takes more than
just ."tickling" to get the most
out of our soil. It requires
nitrogen, for , production of
leaves and stems; phosphorous
for production of flowers;
potassium, important to all.
divisions, and aids movement
of carbohydrates within the
plant; calcium to help
neutralize toxic organic acids;
sulphur and iron also play an
important function; mulch and
watering; are of utmost im-
portance.
Before planting those
precious seeds, or plants it is a
good idea to have, your soil
tested so that you can .be sure
you use the right fertilizer for
your particular type of soil.
Call your Department of
Agriculture, -:Clinton, for in-
formation on soil testing.
"4N,
ANNUALS
These ,.• exciting colorful
flowers are so much fun to grow
anew each year. For weeks now
we've been browsing through
seed catalogues, (the shed
packets are now on display at
local garden. centres) and like
children with' the first
Christmas catalogue in hand
'we are itchin.g.to buy'``this, and
that,, etc".
It really is so much fun to
plant your own. seeds, but
unless you have adequate
germination facilities, i.e.,
hothouse, grow -light, etc,,, . it is
best you keep . your hands in.
your pockets for a while and
wait . u ttil the :'.bpxed.... -plants–
arrive.
New developments in an-
nuals have resulted in deeper
and brighter colors; dwarf
strains have , become more
uniformly dwarf; even some
forms have been dramatically
changed, .i.e. the butterfly
snapdragon, even some
perrenials and biennials now
.bloom the first season; basic
cell structures have been
altered to produce plants of
unusual . vigour,, hybridization
has produced plants of e--
ceptional size ,and disease
resistance.
However, there are' several
annuals that may safely be
planted right in your garden
when all danger of frost is past.
Some of these are Cosmos,
Bachelor's Buttons, Cleome,
Bells of Ireland, Marigolds
(especially the . tall :African
types), Nasturtium and Zin-
nias. Although they will bloom ,
later than seeds started in-
doors, they will "laugh with a
harvest" if you give them lots
of - `,`T.L.C." (tender, loving
care). •

•The flowers you choose, of
course, will depend on your
-pe.rsonal taste-aiid., prefere'hGes, w, ., ,. ,
But however you use color in
the garden, there are three
basic colo_ r" 'relationships;
Harmony, . contrast. and
subordination that,may help
you create the effectyou want,
give you new plantingideas, or
help you make that favorite
flower really shine.
The Colour Wheel is ' an
ingenious, device designed to
help work out 'basic color
schemes for . your garden,
border plantings, etc. -
Harmony: On the Color
Wheel, the tones between• each
pair of primary colors (red,
yellow and blue) appear to be •
quite similar. The closer,
together two or more colors are
on the color wheel, the . less
difference there is between
thee. Twb harmonious color
combinations are those in-
volving "hot" colors, such as
yellow orange - and red and
."cool" colors, blue, green and
violet. The overall effect of.
these harmonies gives • the
garden a. warm or a cool
feeling.
Contrast: Colors that lie
opposite each other on the
wheel (yellow, violet, e.g.) are
complementary colors in
contrast, with each other' and
your eye jumps quickly from
one to the other. Thus green
out -of -season foliage shrubs
`will appear lusher and cooler
when contrasted with a splash
' of red, etc. , - ' .
Subordination: Just as too
much harmony can become
dull, too much contrast cars
make a garden appear busy,
and confusing. In both har-
monious and' complementary
combinations a dominating
color provides, a point of focus
and stability. •
'While subordinate color
offers variety and -or contrast,
attention will always return to
the dominant'color for rest and
relief.
Your Garden Club welcomes
you, to attend their monthly.
meetings, where fellow. gar-
deners meet to discuss gar-
dening and exchange ideas.,
There will also be a table of
books; booklets,and valuable
information at hand that may
be helpful. For further in-
' formation cul]: 524-2479.

Flower color can enhance.
your garden in- many ways. A

The gas dryer. x
There's nothing like it
for instant service. Because
there's nothinglike it f -or -instant-
heat.
And isn't that what dry-
ing clothes is all about?
So if your present gas
dryer just isn't warming up to
the job any more, maybe it's
time to replace it with a new
natural gas dryer. .
The instant -heat -feature
of the new gas dryers means
your clothes start drying
instantly.
- w But not all fabrics are
created equal. And therefore,
shouldn't be treated the same.
So today's natural gas dryers '
give you 'a •choice; a setting for
time dry, a setting for perma-
nent press, and even an au-
tomatic setting that- doesn't shut
off until your clothes are com-
pletely dry (special sensors
measure .the moisture).
Natural gas dryers
come with lint screen, -vent on
the side, or vent on the back,
electric ignition spark or con- ' Na
tinuous pilot All come in the
•
latest colours, and the latest -
styles. And operate for just
pennies per load.
You see, natfil afigasiis
efficient.' There's no refining or
generating involved, you're jet-
ting fuel energy right from its
source. Now that's a wise and
efficient use of energy. .
When it comes time for
anew dryer,
order a '
natural gas
dryer. And get an
„r. order of dry
° clothes to go,.
