I can always get a room at the YMCA for a few days, if worst comes to worst. My son Hugh is going to pre- sent a piano recital in a couple of weeks at the Conservatory, in the city. The announcement has created a flurry of excite- ment, alarm and despondency that will likely be unequalled until the day my daughter de- clares 'that she is going to be married. Needless to say, the one who is excited, alarmed and despon- dent is not 1. Nor is it my daughter. Nor is it the star of the evening, himself. in fact, he is quite cool about it. So cool, indeed, that he isn't quite sure of the date, the place, the time, or how much it will cost his old man. ?`f rt- No, its his mother who is THE EW panicking. First of all, she de- mands to know, in the name of all that is ridiculous, how he hopes to have his pieces ready in such a short time. "It's im- possible!" she wails. "It's out of the question. You are a mutt!" The next minute, she's dole- fully predicting that nobody will come to the recital, and that we'll be disgraced, shamed forever in the eyes ... uh .. . I don't know whom, exactly. We fight back, of course, Hugh goes into a vague, in- volved explanation of how he can get his pieces in shape, It has to do with turning over new leaves, letting, no grass grow underfoot, nose to the grind- stone, shoulder to wheel and stitches in time. "Hah!" snorts his mum. "The only thing that will save your bacon is divine intervention," of something of the sort, she intimates. BV Have You Tried Our New Cello -wrap Loaf ?

At a bake sale Saturday af- ternoon at Hensall, Units 1 and 2 of the UCW realized the sum of $53. Mrs. Ross Broadfoot and Mrs. Lloyd Lovell were con- veners. I step in to pour oil on the fiery waters, or tears of rage, as some call them. I assure her that the hall will be filled, the applause will lift the roof, the critics will proclaim a new Paderewski, and we'll all be proud, rich and happy ever after. "There'll be nobody there but the family," she says flatly. She hadn't even heard me. "Not a soul will come." We proceed to prove her wrong. We count up the aunts and cousins who HAVE to come. We count up the friends and students who MIGHT come. Total is about 23. "You see?", triumphantly. "You people aren't realistic. We'II be a laughing -stock . It's going to be a big flop. Every- body we invite will say they'd love to come, but they just can't make it that night." Bitterly. Then I have a bright idea. I'll probably have to do it when Kim is married, so I might as well give Hugh a send-off. I explain to the Old Battle Axe. It's the only way to assemble a crowd in these troubled times. She agrees, feels better, even grins. The Misses Margaret Elgie and Sharon McBride, and David Cooper, of University of West- ern Ontario, spent the Easter weekend with their parents.

Discover what your neighbours already know -that profitable corn production calls for Atrazine. ATRAZINE For pre -emergent weed control inconn. Forlquackgrass and nutgrass control in corn Far more corn is being grown in Ontario than ever before. One reason is because Atrazine* has made corn the easiest crop of all to grow. Now dairymen and beef producers can take full advantage of corn's higher nutritive value without additional labour. Cash crop farmers enjoy bigger yields and greater profits! This year Atrazine comes in a new, more concentrated formula which offers added con- venience to the grower. Atrazine 65W stays in suspension in the spray tank more readily and is easier to apply. STANDARD PRACTICE WITH LEADING ONTARIO GROWERS Walter Bolger, Bolger farms, Ariss, Ontario: Overall spray on 215 acres of silage corn. "We're in the beef cattle business to make money and we have to Judge any product by whether it helps us to make a profit," says Mr. Bolger. "On this basis we are definitely sold on Atrazine." NM. MI granular formulations of Atrazlno for weed for good farming F ra� Atrazine kills annual broad leaf weeds and grasses and continues to keep them under control late into the season when cultivations are no longer possible. It eliminates root pruning and loss of soil moisture caused by cultivation. Atrazine promotes more vigorous stands of corn and bigger, cleaner harvests. SPRAY AT THE CORRECT TIME FOR BEST RESULTS Atrazine 65W should be sprayed at the time of planting or as soon as possible afterwards. Do not spray after weeds are 1W" high (grasses 1') or poor control may result.
