We had our first firma FROST
warning last night, Monday,
and this morning everything
WAS white so we had it, all
I looked around to see how
much damage was done to the
flowers, etc., but G couldn't see
that there, was very much.
One of the, first places I
thought of was the Peachey,
begonias that have.. been so
'beautiful all year.
The Peachey corner at
Wellington and Picton Streets
has been a beautiful show place
day and night - now that they
have spotlites on their flowers.
Right now I want to say
"thank you" to these nice folks
for the pleasure they have given
so 'many over the years.
Mrs. Peachey said some of the
flowers were touched but those
at the' front of the house still
look fine. She also told me that
they don't dig up these flowers
until after they have been
frosted, then they lay the whole
plant.out and allow it to cure or
dry. 'Anyway, the bulbs pre
tick _bel ter _ when. 4,t .e. tabes
.care of them -this- way,- as -thy
tops should fall off the bulb -
before storage for the winter.
I suppose there are other
things to be done to them - but
whatever they do, the Peacheys
certainly have a glorious
display. "
Thanks again, folks.
I would like to say thank you
to a great many others around
"the prettiest town" but it
would be too large a list, so
please accept this - all you green
thumbers - as my thank you for
the pleasure we have had from.
yourbeautiful gardens.
This brings me up short when
I think of the damage some
young - ? - frustrated and
ignorant goons have done to the
flower beds, parks property, etc.,
around town.
Why is it that year afteryear
there is so much vandalism that
goes undetected? Surely
SOMEONE must see some of
this happening? I know that
nowadays people "don't want to
,be involved" and so they turn
their heads and .let these things
happen. What is the matter with
our sense of pride and respon-
sibility?
In order to check - we will
never. STOP - this wanton
destruction, we could at least
call the police and allow them
to follow it up. They can dothis
without having you standing
there to identify the culprit.
A few leads would 'soon pin-
point the troublemakers and if
they are made to clean up their
mess or .personally pay for it -
I'm sure it might make some of
them think twice before
throwing things around.
Here, too, I think the courts
.could punish the culprit a little
more, since they couldn't care
less when the old man pays all
their fines. Mainly, I think.
PEOPLE have to gang up on
thea -...stupid_ ctaractexs a..at d_e,.
hope `the paitnishment is strong
enough to make them smarten
up.
I've another gripe.
Recently I saw our Prime
Minister on TV standing beside
a large sign: "Empire Club". I
don't know' where our P.M. was
I mean the town - as I saw
only part of the show, but as he
spoke, great puffs of black
smoke kept flying up in the air -
it looked as tho' someone was
deliberately blowing this
towards the speaker and doing a'
good job of it.
This happens at most of the
dinners where there is an impor-
tant speaker.. I think 'the op-
position sends them in to do all
the damage they can with their
great gusts of smoke - probahly
cigar smoke,. cigarettes can't
create such a cloud.
Well, that's off my chest, as I'
feel sorry for anyone trying to
speak above it all.

Enrolment in Ontario's
elementary schools will continue
to drop until 1979, Educatiion
Minister Thomas Wells said last
week.
Speaking in Toronto he said
that last year's drop in
enrolment was the first in the
past 26 years.
Mr. Wells said an enrolment
projection, done by the
Ministry's planning and
'research branch, indicates that
the elementary school enrolment
which totaled 1,456,840 .in Sep-
tember of ' last year, wilL
• decrease by about 148,000 to a
low of 1,308,000 in September of
1979. Lower enrolment is expec-
ted in both the public schools
and the Roman Catholic
separate schools, he said.
However, in 1980 the elemen-
tary school enrolment is expec-
ted to begin increasing and by
September of 1982 will have in -

While the elementary, school
enrolment is decreasing,
enrolment in the secondary
schools is expected to continue
to increase to a peak of about

enrolment was 574,520. By Sep-
tember of 1982 the secondary
school enrolment is expected to
fall back to •.539,000.
Mr. Wells said the infor-
mation has been sent to the
province's directors of education
and superintendents of separate
school boards to aid them in
their long-range planning.

Conveners were obtained for

telephone committee was urged

bers' for contributions for the
tables.
It was decided that the`
November meeting would take
the form of a pot -luck supper, to
be followed by a workshop
where members would be'shoxvh
ideas for novelties to be made
for the Fair.
Following the • business'
meeting, Mr. Joseph Morrissey
addressed the members concer-
ning a possible leadership

ted out ways in which good
leadership qualities could

But art pays little heed to
frontiers and, the response to ar-

so, come Oct. 12, there will be
artario 72 openings also from
Whitehorse (at the public
library) to Warsaw (the neigh-
boring Lodz Museum of Art).
All nine other provinces, as
well as six of the United States,
