Mary Haugh of Brucefield. In a story by Maxine Barker -'entitled 'Her love of flowers has area blooming' the paper says: 'When I was five years old. a neighbor gave me six hyacinth bulbs. Then my father helped me to plant them. I was so de- lighted when they grew. And I've had flowers ever since'.‘ Mrs. Mary Haught, R.R.1. _Brucefield has repaid that gift by distributing literally thou- sands of flowers and seeds to "school children, neighbors and friends. She found ample opportunity to share her love for flowers with children for she taught sch- ool more than 25 years. Retired since 1966, she still maintains an active life with community commitments, her hobbies, and her large peren- nial garden which blooms thrbughout most of the year from the first • snowdrops to Christ- 'mas roses. Indoors, in ufgwinter months, Mrs. Haugh maintains a variety of small cacti gardens, arrang- ing and rearranging attractive and artistic displays, She also decorates with gourds, in every conceivable size and, shape and combination of colors. • had 14 pails of gourds this fall', she said. 'I've given them all away except for one of each kind I'm saving for seed'. - With them•she arranges co- lorful dried Indian corn cobs which she also replants to in- crease the, variations of color. Although Mrs. Haugh is pleas- ed to talk about her flowers and to advise on-. care - 'Consis- tency in care is the -answer to good gardening' - she much pre- fers to talk about her life as a school teacher. loved teaching', she main- tained, 'It's rather funny. I taught for the first 14 years in ungraded schools. And now they are just coming back into style', . Mrs. Haugh's 'ungraded' sch- ools were then known as one room schools. In one school, near Sault Ste Marie, she had 55 students in various grades, representing 13 nationalities, some of whOM couldn't speak English. cue time I had seven new students. Not only could they net understand English, they couldn't, speak to one another either'. She surmounted -that difficulty by giving them scribbleray and they, copied the names tif objects in English. 'And they were all speaking English very soon'. She returned to the Bruce- field area and retired from tea- ching after her marriage to Wal- lace Haugh, in order to bring up her two sons and two daughters, 'My youngest daughter was just finishing public school when they asked me to teach in the Hensall school in 1955', she re- calls. She taught mostly grade five and six classes until her-retire- ment after 11 years. Wag she nervous about re- turning to thea•profeSsioa,after 20 years absence?

ANSWER: At the present time they are not requited by law, but an ap- proved safety helmet such as - is required to be 'worn by motor- cyclists, I• feel would be a very good safety feature.

QUESTION: ,Dear Sir: •• I have recently heard rumours that the age limit for obtaining a driver's licence in 1970 will be raised to 18. I hope this is not true, as I am 15 and will be 16 in 1970.

QUESTION: Dear Cons4able: The other morning when I was driving to work-;-•1 had an 0.9.P. stop me for frost on the windows. Could you please tell me if it is necessary to have .every window cleared of frost if you have side mirrors on a car. in my case, when I scrape the frost off' the back window outside, it seems. to frost the inside. You can't keep it clear of frost, it was just a warning this time-. Signed' - 'Frustrated' ANSWER: To answer your question. I will give the answer printed in the 1969-70 Driver's Handbook. 'Windshield and windows on ei- ther side of the compartment containing the steering wheel must be in such • a condition as to afford the driver a clear view to the front and sides. The rear window must he in such a condition as to afford' the driver a clear vies•I to the rear, un- less the. vehicle is equipped with a mirror securely attached to the vehicle In a position to give the driver a clear view Of the roadway in the rear, other than through the rear window.' • Many drivers have the same problem as you do with the frost on the inside of the rear win- dow. To solve this the safetly experts state that rear window- defrosters be installed, or we should, wait until the car is warm -enough to eliminate 'the frost, 'and if we -wind the rear side Window down about 1/4 inch on a trip, this v'111 greatly assist in preventing frost from. accumu- tating on the rear back window. .04 from MAPLE LEAF DAIRY PHONE 527-0810 SEAFORTH Dairy products are available at GERALD'S SUPERTEST' STATION Sundays.

And in every shcool she taught she gave packages of flower seeds. Lately she has distribu- ted Iris• roots, this year to the Women's Institute and the United Church Women, organizations with which she is actively in- - volved.
