THE REVOLS Farewell Party Last appearance toy Caenac"a BAYFIELD PAVILION SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 30 PRIM -- LUNCH •- FAVOURS DANCING 0 to 12 p.m. No Dance Friday, September 29 Rar.. biing With Lcy . Z ucy R. Woods) The Mistress at ."The Hut" sat in the shade of the little maple tree, leisurely doing needlepoint (which if Abe liven long enough may some day adorn an antique chair) and enjoying the balmy September breeze. Her spouse, a supposedly much hen-pecked male, sat dawn beside her to peel sone apples for the apple sauce which delights his bride. "You could save yourself a good deal of trouble," she suggested in as gentle a voice as possible, "if you just quartered the apples, boiled thei , and then put 'then :through the -colander." "But what about the grabs?" he pretested, "Oh, they'll all be well -cooked," she assured him "Weill" he ejaculated, "I may have to eat grubs if war conea, but I'm not going to start now." And sa he' con- tinued to peel, core and even' out in eighths the apples in case some grub might have stolen in, and he overlooked the hole. The mistress continued to do the needlepoint in silence. But her mind wasactive. His words had opened up a whole new ehannel of •th.ought. One reads of such exotic dishea as bird§, nests, snails; ant, etc., —. wby not a culin- ary achievement with apple grubs, maggots, worms, or whatever they are? Just give it a fancy name like larvae d'coddling, and it could rank with caviar, sh- rimp, anchovy or canapes in hors d'oeuvres at the cocktail hour. Cultivating a taste for this rarity would be a prime requisite. . That of course, would give newspaper advertis- ing a boost, Then it would be 'a new and exciting item far the catering and restaurant trade in those select places where one can order delectable delicacies. Of necessity it would be an expensive item but would appeal to 'those with an expensive taste think of all the infested apples one would have to gather for one serving. There would; be the cost of the apple, the hours of labour entailed in digging out the grub (a by-product of this could be the manufacture of cider) and then ',the hours of preparation by the chefs who would serve them, fresh or pickled. All this would: cost money. Then think what ablessing it would be to the apple grower. He might not have to spend so much time spray- ing and thus eliminate the danger of poisoning himself in this operation. For with a market for the larvae, the coddling moth, might soon become extinct like the carrier pid'geon, or only be raised in 'orchards planted for the purpose. It might become a national industry like the raising of silk worms in France. Apple growing would then take second place. The entomologists would be busy raising improved strains and the moth might be kept in confine - anent and shipped to certain orchard's before 'the egg laying season. There is really no telling how afar such a venture might go, how it might affect the economy of the country, and the changing of customs. But don't look to the Master at "The Hut" for leadership in such a campaign ! ! ! Trustees Answer to Lucy To the Editor, Clinton News -Record In reply to "Rambling with Lucy", in last issue of paper. re steps to river: yes, the steps were closed after we got fed up with repairs. Two years ago they were all repaired. Three days after we got word there were broken steps, investiga- tion disclosed three or four steps had been- broken by a large stone rolled down on them. In June this year they were again repaired and about the middle of July we were not- ified about broken steps so we found 10 or 15 more steps br- oken and a large stone near them. So we decided to close same as we felt there was not enough traffic to warrant the expenditure of keeping them in repair and we did not see our way clear to hire a guard 24 hours a day to watch over them. We always welcome construc- tive criticism but when none is coming why we feel they are just plain ornery and since the bridge has been •removed we feel the steps are not worth the cost. It's not much farther to walk on good road around hairpin curve in fact it might be .beneficial to most folks. We posted a notice top and bottom of steps to the effect persons using steps did so at their own risk. Too bad you didn't know about it Lucy, but if .the village is going to be wiped out next year why both- er to fix the steps this year? In regard's seats for the old folks in the village we have noticed that places much lar- ger than Bayfield have no seats for aged to rest. Can you find any in Goderioh, Clinton or Seaforth except in the parks;? If we put in seats you would likely want foam rubber cush- ions on them and as for peb- bles, we use gravel on streets and please tell us where we can get it without pebbles tri it. Where can you find a place with so -much Mice green grafi• to walk on as in Bayfield. We might state that we hold our regular meeting the last Thursday of each month at 8 o'clock in the Hall and that is the proper place 'to come and make your requests known, signed, Bayfield Trustees 0 VARNA (Correspondent, Fred McClymont Phone HU 2-3214) Rev.

He described the air as being literally filled with Monarchs and smaller species. Mrs. J. E. Howard informs the writer that they migrate to the shores of southern Califor- nia, perhaps as far south as the western coast of Mexico for the winter. But monarchs are still flut- tering around the buddleia and of course the cabbage butter- fly can be seen anywhere.
