At one point a drama production was scrapped and re- placed by Another. Occasion- ally certain musical numbers didn't seem to be getting the complete reaction and they were replaced. The result was an ever improving show as is in- dicated through the various press accounts clipped by the group and the litters of thanks from grateful nursing home operators. - Hussel and Shirley Wilhelm, oPerators of a nursing home in Exeter noted, "We wish to thank you one and all for coming to our hotne to entertain.

Mrs. Walter Bewley having the topic for September opened the meeting with an enlightening skit on "Introduction to India", assisted by Mrs. Nelson Marks. The coming year study is to be' on India. This country is the second largest in population and still growing, one out of every six people is Indian. There are 500 people to a square mile 70% of these people can neither read mr write. There is one doctor for every 5000 people, A discussion followed on 'A future for Indian people". The scripture taken from Glayds Rother, writing on be- half of Sunnyside Haven Nursing Home at StrathroY said) "The patients really enjoyed it and were telling their people what a nice program you gave us. They also say how polite and nice you were to all of them. You have no idea what it meant to our residents." John and Grace Bakker, God- erich Nursing hoine operators said simply, "People like -you make the world a nicer place to live in." These are just a few samples of the reaction the "Folks" pro- gram drew everywhere they pla3ed. In only one incident was there a negative reaction. In an editorial the Motint Forest Confederate, while discussing the faCt that an O.F.Y. project from their community was turned down, noted that their local pro- posal a" better idea than 4 \the one seen- from Goderich." "They 'could not sing," the editorial charged, "they were unkempt and rude." No other newspapers, in any of the areas ,where the group staged , their productions, offered such com- ment however. In drawing conclusions on the effectiveness of the "Folks" program Mr. G. Gregg R.N., a Field worker with Homes for Special Care and one who, was closely associated with the group's activities noted, "It was a good leaning experience for participants as was demonstrated by changed attitudes and an im- proved ability to work together. It was a valuable service to our nursing home population 'as is dertionstrated by patient apprec- iation and letters of thanks re- ceived, as well as telephone calls' and conversations with nursing home staff." Luke 1 - 19 was given by Mrs. Bewley followed by the Creation Story from Genesis and a poem entitled "The Lerd's t °tapas. sion". Mrs. N. Marks led in prayer.

Late August and early September is considered the best time to seed new lawns, says D. B. McNeill, horticult- ural specialist, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and .Food. At this time of year, the hottest part of the —summer is over, but weather should remain warm enough to allow the germinating seedlings to establish themselves before winter. Grass .can grow on poor soil but it is generally advisable to add at least a 4 to 6 inch layer of top soil. Apply 20 per cent Superphosphate fertilizer ( 15 to 25 pounds/1000 square feet) to assist seed germination and encourage root growth. Don't skimp on seed. A thick stand discourages weed growth. Seeding too lightly results in a 'thin patchy lawn that offers in- sufficient competition to weeds. Use. seed o f high germinating quality. Suitable grasses are generally mixed with Kentucky bluegrass. The best seeding rate is 3 to 5 pounds for 1000 square feet, if Kentucky blue- grass forms a high percentage of the mixture. Small areas can be seeded by hand or with a cyclone 'type of seeder. Distribute the seed evenly. It 'is a good idea to divide the seed in half. Then- sow hall in one direction and the rest at right angles to it. On. larger areas mechanical spread- ers can be used. A low fert- ilizer spreader on wheels with adjustable slide openings is ex- cellent beeause the seeding rate • can be controlled. Rake the soil lightly to cover the seed to a depth of one- eighth to one-quarter inch, apply a light covering of screened top- soil. Using a dry roller to pre- vent picking up the seed, roll the laWn area. After seeding keep the area moist if rainfall is not sufficient. ,A .thin mulch of straw, peat moss or burlap is excellent to hold moisture. After germination roll the lawn with a roller to firm the ,rpots. It is usually necessary to cut a fall-seeded lawn before winter, When the new' grass is• about 2 1/2 inches high, mow it light- ly. But if the seeding is done late and the growth is not vig- orous, the grass is better left uncut! A little extra time and money spent at seeding time will re- ward you with a lawn to be proud of, requiring limisleffortio keep 'It that wa‘ leg • ' 4-H club EGMONDVILLE I MEETS The Egmondville I club lead- ers and members met at the home of the Van Dykes.
