March went in and out like a Iamb Correspondent JOAN CRONIN 345-2772 March came in like a lamb and went out like one also, but April sure did get off to a wet and very windy start. The high winds on Saturday eve- ning left one with a very eerie fee(iig, as the young trees bows' bent too and fro and the century old maples creakec and cracked. The poor old Easter Bunny must have had to tie a few extra bags of jelly beans onto his fluffy powder puff tail to keep him from blowing away. Easter Sunday was quite wet and dismal outside but that did not stop the young- sters from hunting for Easter Eggs and enjoying their candy and treats. Many households were visited by family or friends to share in their Easter dinner. Monday was a holiday for all the school children and a good day to get a wee start on the Spring cleaning. It was a super day to tackle the garage or basement where one found that lost overshoe or the mates to a few pairs of mittens. ' The St. Patrick's Parish Bake Sale was held on Friday after the 3:00 p.m. church service.
