There are certain ancient and
honorable rituals in our society
which helps to give our lives a
certain continuity. Many of
them are geared to the seasons:
spring •cleaning; summer 'flu;
the burning of the leaves. get-
ting stoned out of your skull on
New Year's Eve,
One of the most sacred of
these, for some of us, is open-
ing day of the trout season.
Slap of a beaver tail; chuckle
of running water; splatter of
Wild duck taking off from
swamp; feel of the sun on face;
mist of green spreading through
bare bones of branches; honest
stench of worm -guts on hands;;
flavor at noon of big, bologna
sandwiches with hot mustard;
these are the things which
quicken the senses, cleanse the
body of its winter stupor, re-
mind one that God is still in
His heaven.
And these are some of the
reasons I have never missed the
trite, whether the mortgage is
due, or my wife is having a
baby, or I have a date with
Sophia Loren.
And I hope to do so until the
day when they ,have to carry
me to a quiet spot on the stream
and leave me there in my
wheelchair, to watch the black
water swirl around the white
rock. the yellow sun pick up the
golden gravel of the stream
bottom.
Each year the ritual is the
same. And each year it is dif-
ferent. There is the year when
you fall off a log in the first
three minutes, and squish and
squelch yourself through the
rest of the day, a sodden mess,
wet fags, wet matches, soaked
sandwiches.
And there is the year when
you hit the stream at the crack
of dawn, fish with all your skill
until sunset, and come home
with two speckled trout eight
inches long. And there is the
year when you go out at 7:30
a.m., just to toss a line for old

Your bait can fails from your
belt into a torrent, and you snap

get back to the car to find a flat
tire, and get home to find your
wife calling the police, because
it's four hours after sundown.
But this year topped them
all. It was complicated, Our
high school music director, with
incredible lack of foresight,
had scheduled an exchange con-
cert with a city school, for that
very day. Fine. But it turned
out we had to have sone of the
visiting youngsters for dinner.
As my wife is away every Sat-
urday, for music lessons with
the kids, this meant I was cook.
Normally, I'd have welcomed
a chance to display my culinary
skill, In fact, I had the menu
planned. Beef stew simmered
in beer, followed by a sour
cream souffle, roast chestnuts
and peppermint lifesavers as
dessert. Then I realized it was
opening day.
I was aghast. Wanted to be
a good host but danged if I was
going to miss the rites of spring.
Then it struck me. Why not

This signal is different with
each channel tuned. When the

produced. The signal is car-

suet as the garage, the base-

The signals or impulses car-

SHAW PORTRAIT ON TV — CBC -TV's Festival series
offers a fascinating study of the great George Bernard Shaw,
the playwright who emerged from the obscurity of a Dublin
boyhood to become one of the most influential writers of the
20th century. The one-hour film was made in Dublin, London
and Ayot St. Lawrence, where he died at the age of 94.
Interspersed are newsreel sequences and still photographs
adding authenticity to this portrait of a great writer whose
ultimate concern was for the human race. Titled Bernard

Morse speaking the words of Shaw.

en., a real north country dinner
—speckled trout. lovingly fried
in butter? They'd never for-
get it,
With a light heart, I hit for
the trout stream on opening
day. Everything was perfect.
It was fine day, and I knew
there were at least 47 big
speckles in there, just waiting
to hit that butter.
Got home at 4:30 p.m. with
two six-inch chub and a 14 -inch
sucker. Went to the fish mar-
ket. They had nothing but
some fairly large whitefish,
which somehow didn't look like
speckled trout. Called all my
friends. They had either been
skunked like me, or stated flat-
ly, "The hell with you, Smiley;
we're putting on• a big speckled
trout dinner for those visiting
musicians; feeding four of
them." Bought fwo pounds of
hamburg.
You know, there are times
when my love for my wife is
overwhelming. When I arrived
at the house at 5:30, she was
grilling steaks in the oven.

Atrazine gives me
perfect weed control
°°Atrazine is the greatest advance in corn culture
we've ever had," that's how Donald Morris,
Merlin, Ontario,,suras up six years experience
with Atrazine. M. Morris was an early pioneer of
this new weed -free method of growing corn.
"1 treated a neighbour's cornfield that hadn't
been cropped for years. It was thick with weeds of
every description. 1 said to myselff'this will be a.
real test for .Atrazine'—and it surely was. We
sprayed when the weeds were about an inch high...
the weeds were corning -up by the millions. After '
spraying, the weeds just disappeared. eared. At harvest
time the corn was absolutely dean," M. Morris
states. Ask your dealer for descriptive literature
about Atrazine 65W and don't forget to get your
sprayer ready on time.
Atrazine 65W is available m 5 lb. bags and
