Dr, Whitman speaks on gardening
The October Hor-
ticultural meeting was
held in the town hall
October 25, with a fair
attendance for a wet
evening.
The year is drawing to
a close and the
nominating committee
will be busy - volunteers
for two vice-presidents
are urgently needed.
The November meeting
will be a dinner meeting
and a party night - held
November 22 in the
Parish Hall.
Marion Powell in-
troduced the guest
speaker - Dr. Roger
Whitman of Seaforth,
whose brothers were
farmers, but Roger was
the gardener - surpassed
only by his desire to be a
doctor. It is an excellent
combination, as the busy
doctor can escape to his
greenhouse and relax,
free from phone calls.
Dr. Whitman told of his
visit to the United
Kingdom and showed
beautiful slides. Days
from August 16 to Sep-
tember 17 were flooded
with sunshine and could
not have been more
perfect as they covered
over 3,000 miles. The
heather on the hills and
roses in profusion were
breathtaking.
At Gatwick they rented
a car and travelled easily
through the beautiful
countryside, where they
found excellent ac-
commodation at bed and
board cottages at very
fair rates with a very
bountiful breakfast.
Every home has a
flower garden - no matter
how small the bit of land -
and it is amazing the
beauty it can contain -
roses larger than your
fist in every shade and
sunflowers standing 6
feet tall. The stone cot-
tages, many still with
thatched roofs, blend so
beautifully with all this
glory of colour.
Loch Lomond - home of
the Loch Ness monster,
Kippen and Seaforth all
held very special in-
terest.
In Coventry gardens,
the large flower clock
really works and a small
cuckcoo comes out of a
hedge to call the time of
day.
On the last day, on the
way to the airport they
saw a sign -"Fuschia
specialist" - and were
amazed to see the
varieties. This
greenhouse did not ship,
orders, but they advised
Dr. Whitman to call in at
the next fuschia sign, just
down *road. Here, they
found a 20 year old boy
who had been working
with fuschias since he
was fourteen, and has
over 200 varieties. He
promised to ship a dozen
of his plants for Dr.
Whitman's greenhouse in
Canada. He hopes to
come to Canada and if so
will bring his wealth of
fuschias slides to
Seaforth.
Mr. Nelson thanked
Dr. Whitman for taking
us on such a delightful
journey.
Prize winners were:
Ruth Bond; Ida Leiper;
Florence Oliver; Nina
Inkley; Dorothy
MacLaren and Mary
Epps.
Two members were
invited to judge at the
Junior Gardeners'
Hallowe'en Party where
the Jack 0' Lanterns
came in costume - and
such costumes - wigs and
eye lashes and hats of all
types, including straw
and witches and black
velvet - and one fellow
was pierced by a long
arrow.
Sixteen members came
to the party - and 12 fancy
pumpkins. The games
were for 2 teams, con-
cerning their knowledge
of flowers and plants. The
teams tried to win the
same number of prizes -
bulbs to plant

TRUTH
The Lord Jesus Christ will return to ludge wicked
people on the earth but that will not be the greatest
purpose of His return. He will return to rule on the
earth as King.
Before His birth Mary was told, "He shall be great, and
shall be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God
shall give unto Him the throne of His father David: And
He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever: and of
His Kingdom there shall be no end." Luke 1:31,32.
Old Testament prophecy revolves around the centre of
the return and reign of the Lord Jesus Christ. Isaiah
prophesied, "Of the increase of His government and
peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David -
to establish it with judgment and with justice from
henceforth even forever." Isaiah 9:7.
The book of Revelation looks on to the time of blessing
on earth when the throne of God and of the Lamb shall
be in it; and His servants shall serve Him. Revelation
22:3:
The world goes on to judgment but those who accept
Christ by faith will experience eternal joy. John 5:24.
