These elections were held a few weeks ago, and the president is Wayne McMichael; secretary -treasurer, Murray Kirk- by. The first thing the society will do is raise some money, so here's hoping we can look forward to a dance after the Easter holi- days. $ $ The exams, which are now in full swing, are going to mean quite a bit to some people, and to others, not a thing. There is quite a race on for either the cedar chest or the writing desk. Hugh Gorwill is ahead in the run- ning, with Janet McGregor and Doran Stinson very close second and third. M1 of these students are in Fourth Form, and Marg. Stuart, a Third Form student, is also just behind the other three. $ $ ' Mr. A. W. Sillery, President of the Seaforth Lions Club, was pres- ent at our assembly last Wednes- day to present the certificates from the Public Speaking Contest to the candidates. Those receiv- ing- the certificates were Rose Marie Ducharme, Marjorie Boyd, Linda Sims, Marion Hemingway, Franklin Byrans and Hugh Gorwill. $ $ A Queen of Seaforth High School will be elected by the girl stu- MRS. RITCHIE SPEAKS The Ladies' Aid of First Presby- terian Church held their. regular April meeting with Mrs.- H. Whyte in the chair. Mrs. H. R. Scott op- ened the meeting with a suitable poem. The treasurer's and secre- tary's reports were read and adopted. Mrs. B. Kerr and Mrs. R. McFarlane sang a pleasing duet, "Halleluijah! What a Sav- iour." Mrs. D. Ritchie, the speaker for the afternoon, chose as her topic a Lenten and Easter theme, "The Cross and the Sepulchre." She gave a very helpful andinteresting talk and closed it by reading . a poem of Miss H. I. Graham's, "I Know That My Redeemer Lives." Mrs. Andrews moved a vote of thanks to Mrs. Ritchie. During the afternoon Mrs. An- drews read a-poeisi, "Tha Ladies' Aid," which was enjoyed by all. A social half-hour was then spent and lunch served by Mrs. Scott's and Mrs. Flynn's group, who also planned the meeting. WINTHROP dents from ten girls in Grade XII. The girls all have to have a first- class standing and have an inter- est in art, music, sports, etc. However, there is one drawback— the elected student has to write an essay. The girl student will then visit London some day in the fu- ture to tour CFPL television stu- dio and other points of interest. A teacher, or the girl's mother, will accompany her. Question of heweek: Was it just girls, or were there some boys who missed their buses Wed- nesday afternoon? The •C.G.I.T. of Cavan Church are holding an Easter service Sun- day evening, April 10, at 8 o'clock. This will also be their affiliation service with the W.M.S. It is an open meting, to which everyone is welcome. IN THE GARDEN Right Thing—Right Place A popular pastime for the ama- teur gardener at this time of year is studying seed catalogues says a bulletin from Ottawa. Humor- ists suggest that the pictures in the catalogues often excel the re- sults in the garden. If this is so, the blame can often be laid at the dor of the gardener, because he didn't study the catalogue well enough. Practically all catalogues, in ad- dition to giving specific planting instructions, indicate whether a particular plant or shrub is. hardy or only semi -hardy in different geographic areas, whether it grows best in sun or shade; whe- ther it likes heavy or light soil, or has a preference for wet or dry places in the garden. With this information available there is no reason why the ama- teur gardener cannot arrange his plantings in such a way that they will grow to best advantage. He knows that he has put the right plants in the right places and pro- per attention and care throughout the growing season will bring sat- isfactory results.

Cucumber Varieties Straight -Eight, Marketer, Na- tional Mincu and Windermoor Wonder are names of cueumint varieties which will be found along with many others in the 1955 seed catalogues. Cucumbers may be divided into pickling and slicing varieties. This last group includes the varieties more widely known to the general public, since they are the ones used' for the home garden. Names such as Straight -Eight, A and C, Delcrow, Windermoor Wonder or Longfel- low, are familiar to many of us, but other names are new, or rela- tively so. Burpee Hybrid, Hybrid D, Marketer and Marketer Long, are recommended varieties which are early and give a good yield of attractive green fruits. Other va- rieties such as Niagara, Santee and Colonial are much too late for our climate, except possibly in the Niagara peninsula. Supercrop Hy- brid, Hybrid C, Sensation Hybrid and Sunnybrook had no value over varieties such as Marketer or Bur - pee Hybrid when tested at the Di- vision of Horticulture, Central Ex- perimental Farm, Ottawa. Some varieties have been devel- oped with tender skin and black spines. They are referred to as the pickling varieties and are used by the Food Processing Industry for making gerkins and other types of pickled .cucumbers. Old standard varieties are still avail- able and are preferred by many. They are Paris Pickling, National Pickling, Heinz Pickling and Mincu. The newer varieties have the advantage of being resistant to some troublesome diseases such as cucumber mosaic virus or cu- cumber scab. Hicrop Hybrid de- veloped by the Ontario Agricultur- al College is resistant to cucumber mosaic virus and so are Ohio MR - 17 and Ohio MR -25. Wisconsin SMR -9 and Wisconsin SMR -12 are resistant to scab and to cucumber mosaic virus. Some of these will be available in the spring of 1955; others may be in short supply for another year.
