Keep Ontario
beautiful
When the new permanent
licence plates are issued in 1973
they will carry the message,
"Ontario—Keep It Beautiful,"
Environment Minister J.A.C.
Auld announced recently.
This theme not only reflects the
widespread and growing concern
for our environment, he told the
House, it also "will serve as a
continuing reminder that a clean
environment is an individual
responsibility."
The message will remind
visitors and potential tourists
"that Ontario is a beautiful
province whose people are
concerned with conserving and
enhancing its natural
attractions," he said. "Nine of 10
Canadian provinces and many
American states send their
messages on licence plates
wherever people travel by car,"

Safety report
on mini bikes
With the arrival of spring the
Goderich detachment of the
Ontario Provincial Police report
that complaints of minors riding
mini bikes on highways have
started to come into the ap.p.
office,
"These vehicles, when used
properly, can be a source of
pleasure and enjoyment."
Constable E. W Moulton
observed, "but when unlicenced
minors are allowed to operate an
unlicenced, uninsured mini bike
on the highway it is a serious
Matter."
"Perhaps the parents of the
children involved do not realize
that not only is the child
operator's life endangered when
he is allowed to go onto the
highway but the child, parent and
vehicle owner are liable to be
charged and taken to court,"
Constable Moulton said.
"If the fact that the police may
catch the child, and as a result
charge any or all of the
aforementioned persons, is not a
grim thought," he further
observed, "perhaps the thought of
a civil suit as the result of an
accident will bring the parents
around to the conclusion that mini
bikes, while driven by minors,
unlicenced and uninsured, do not
belong on the highways."

Spring is late but setting' in the warm sunroom, Lucy looks out on the
grass becoming green, the snowdrops and crocus showing in various
spots, and it looks full of prornise. At the time of writing we could do
with a good, heavy warm shower,
In her younger days it was a great thrill to Lucy to begin gardening in
the spring and dig her fingers into God's clean earth. And that is what
Carl is busy doing now. He is planting Dutch sets and parsnips because
they have to go in early to germinate—last year hoed out by mistake but
they were, perhaps too close to flowers so he'll watch this year. At any
rate the asters have to go in the East garden this year,
On the whole, there is great activity at "The Hut". The cardinal is
Whistling his love song loud and clear, At least two pairs of robins are
busy building their nests in the garden. One had chosen the juniper
outside the kitchen window where she nested last year, And she
struggles with great bills full of drygrass which she pulled out to line
her nest. The other pair have Chosen a secluded spot on the top of the
grapevine trellis.
The sparrows and other small birds which Lucy cannot identify
while wearing her reading glasses, are feeding not only on the lawn but
on the newly-seeded ground at the South side of the house. Carl was
. hoping for a heavy rain to bury the seed but instead we had a gentle
spring rain.
Several Junco's came to the feeding station each day and there is still
a pair of black-capped chickadees appearing at the feeder. Carl wishes
the blackcaps would meet here but evidently the design of the houses he
erects does not suit them. They are such friendly fearless little birds.
Mrs, P. DuBoulay told Lucy of an incident which occurred at the
home of friends of hers in Ormstown Quebec.
One very stormy day last winter a little black-capped chickadee
landed on the windowsill and pecked at the glass. Very carefully the
window was opened a bit and the bird, grasped in her friend's hand,
brought into the house. It was not frightened and seemed right at home.
They fed it sunflower seeds and quite deftly it flipped shells off and had
a good meal. The chickadees really seemed to emjoy the company of
humans. It flitted about and quite often perched on their head or
shoulders.
At night, they thought perhaps it had been in the warm atmosphere too
long so they put it out in the garage. The storm had cleared next
morning so after feeding it, they opened the door and away flew the little
black-capped chickadee. Who says birds have no brains?
Carl sees a mourning dove around the garden this year. It must be
nesting in the vicinity. Quite frequently they used to come and feed on
the gravel driveway some years ago. But when the spruce trees on the
east side of the corner lot were cut down they moved farther afield.
As Lucy sits here writing, a red-breasted nuthatch, a white breasted
nuthatch, and a Downie woodpecker have visited the suet feeder in turn,
And a pair of purple-headed grackles have searched the feeding station
for any morsels left from last evening. The Bluejay had also called at
the station.
Early, before the snow had all gone, Carl felt sorry for the robins.
They never seem to go to the feeding station although one sees them
trying to cling to the suet feeder at times. So he cut a slice of bread and
scattered it out on the snow. The robins didn't touch it. However it had
all disappeared next morning so probably the Bluejays or starlings
cleaned it up.
Rabbits are supposed to be very scarce in this area but we've got a
pair in the garden here. In the evening one sees them gamboling about
like lambs. Carl was afraid one had been killed by an owl or other bird
of prey as he saw a bunch of fur on the lawn. However, the pair still
seem to be around. And so long as they don't feast on Lucy's crocus and
tulips, and other flowers, she has no objections to them making this
their home.
