The Horticultural Society is planning an especially attractive list of 'gall plantings, which in- clude a number ^ of easily grown tulips. One is the dazzling scarlet giant popularly known as the Red Emperor. Of the , species Forster - lens this bloom, is the largest of any known tulip, and about twice the size of, ordinary tulips. Also listed will be the Water Lily Tulip, (Tulipa : Kaufman-, niana), which is a yellow bloom, out almost as soon as the snow is gone, and it opens widely in the early spring sunshine -hence the. popular name. There will be the Praestans Fusilier, which is the original wild species. It is bril- liant orange red in colour and grows with three to five blooms on the stem. Recommended for rock gardens.

Garrett, wifeof the could speak no English and they Protestant padre at RCAF Station Clinton was guest .,speaker at the meeting of the Goodwill 'Club of Wesley -Willis United Church held in the church parlour last Tuesday evening, with 25 ladies present. The president, Miss , W. O'Neil, was in charge and opened the meeting by reading a short invoca- tion. Mrs. Ray Vincent was- at the piano. Matt, 27: 11-31 was read by Miss I. Walkinshaw and Mrs. H. C Wilson led in prayer. The minutes were read by the secretary, Mrs, M. Steepe and the financial report was given by the treasurer, Miss L. Walkinshaw. The correspondence consisted mainly of "thank -you" notes; two letters appealing for financial as- sistance (one from the Cancer Society, the other from C.A.R.E.), It was decided to contribute to both these appeals. A piano sole, "Canadian Capers" was played by Mrs. W. E. Radford. Mrs. Garrett told in a most interesting manner some of their experiences while stationed in Germany. She said that when they went to Germany there was no station ready and the housing situation was acute. They got an upstairs room some distance out in the country but their landlord no German so it was mostly a world of signs. Later they moved' nearer the station but the lang- uage- was still a difficultp roblem. In spite of this they were kindly treated and it was hard to believe these people were once considered enemies. She told of a trip they took to Hitler's hideout at his castle high up in the mountains where he could look out over the country and considered himself absolutely safe. She showed pictures of the church where her husband held services. It was built of red stone, quite plain on the outside but beautiful inside, and a picture of the first wedding there when a girl came over from Western Can- ada to her fiance who was station- ed in Germany. In concluding, Mrs. Garrett said she was so glad they had been stationed in Germany before the Station became completely Canad- ian, Now one can shop there just as here with no need to learn the language or make signs to be understood. Mrs: Radford played "Il Trove-, tore", Miss Stonemoveda vote of thanks to all contributing to a successful evening. A hymn fol- lowed by the Mizpah -benediction closed the meeting. Lunch was served by Mrs. Riddick and Mrs. Pinning and their group.
