Daily as I went to the post office I would hear everyone grumbling that it seemed too soon for winter. It seems so ironic that it would finally snow now that the daffodils are out. The Garden Club rnet April 12. The speaker, Mr. J.B. Ford from the Regional Royal Botanical Gardens in Hamilton, gave an excellent talk on "How to plan your garden to attract birds". Needless to say it was very popular with this community of bird lovers. The core of his talk centered on the need to provide both food and shelter within an easy range. The Garden Club should surely be commended for the work that they do to beautify our village. The Agricultural Society rnet April 14 and discussed plans for this summer's fair.
