The remark was made that

Bakesale a success
On Saturday the Green
Thumbers got underway with
their first project of the year.
The bake sale held at the
Suncoast Mall proved to be a
big success as eager and -
enthusiastic parents as well
as children turned out for the
event. An array 'of mouth
watering and tempting
baking was set up waiting for
buyers to carry them home.
To start spring off in good
spirit there was also a green
..table. Very bright and
colourful geraniums and
Easter lilies just in time for
the coming holiday could also
be purchased at the bake
sale.
Lucky winners of the raffle
were Joanne Campbell, who
won the floral arrangement
and the winner of the 'cake
was Mr. Ken Mackenzie.
We appreciate all who
participated in sale, either by
donating laked goods or

desirable to build an ad-

Severances are a con-
troversial issue in Ashfield
since residential properties
could outnumber the farm
properties if much land is
divided up.
If conflicting issues arose,
due to urban and rural
clashes an urban council
could form which does not
seem reasonable, in a
town zoned Agriculture.
