Klompen Feest and its
Dutch significance brings
back special mem..ories, of
the war rs when btu of
frie ndlipp tween, Canada
• and the Netherlands were
forged.
Ottawa was to become a
refuge for Princess Juliana,
later to become Queen. It
was in a room in Ottawa's
Civic Hospital, temporarily
declared Dutch territory,
that the fourth of Queen
Juliana's daughters,
Princess Margriet, was born
in 1943. In the presence of
Canada's then Governor-
General, the Earl of Athlone,
the youngest Dutch princess
was baptized in St. Andrew's
Presbyterian Church.
The outgoing and friendly
Princess Juliana was often
seen shopping along Sparrks
Street Ottawa or walking
in the suburb of Rockeliffe
Park where she had taken up
wartime residence.
In, September 1946 after
the Princess' return home,
by
peggy gibb
ii'Hallanfl sent p thank -you g ft
pg: AO tulip bulbs to be
(slanted in the public
flowerbeds of Ottawa. This
was followed the next year
byr. another shipment and
each year thereafter.
1970 was the 25th anniver-
sary of the great wartime
liberation and the Dutch peon
ple sent 150,000 bulbsiin the
autumn of 1969 for distribu-
tion
istribution throughout Canada. In
that anniversary year the
Dutch Canadians wished to
make their children aware of
the part Canada had played
in their country's history. A
"walk-a-thon" was organiz-
ed to raise money for the na-
tional gift of tulips. By walk-
ing 10 to 15 miles, the
children were re-enacting,
the hunger marches of their
parents and- grandparents
when :they had to leave their
homes in Holland during the
tragic starvation winter of
1944-45.
So it is that tulips a the
beautiful flowers of spring,

Grow Some Carrots
Howls goad time to grow some carrots. If all goes well,
you'll have some fresh, tasty morsels on your plate in just
six weeks: Watching carrots grow is exciting, and helping
them along_ is :fun.
To grow carrots you need:
carrot seeds
shovel
trowel
rake
Directions:
I.Dig a little plot of earth with a shovel to break up the
soli.
2.Break up' clumps of dirt with a rake.
3.Make an inch deep row in the earth with a trowel.
4.Tear a corner off a packet of seeds and tap them into the
earth. Don't worry about the seeds being upside down -
they know which way is up.
5.Cover the seeds with a little bit of soli.
6.Water the seeds immediately, and whenever the soil
looks dry.
7.When the carrot leaves are about 3 inches high, thin out
the plants. The carrots you pull out will be very small, but
they'll still taste good. Carrots need room to grow -so give
each one about 2 inches of space.
8.Pull out weeds whenever you see them.
9.As the plants get bigger, water them less. Too much
water makes them crack.
10.Pu11 out carrots as you need them for food. They last a
long time in the soil. Enjoy!

On Saturday morning,
Mrs. L Barbara Bellefleur
took the bus to Stratford,
where along with her
daughter, Meana and grand-
daughter, Michelle, she
motored to Toronto. There
she was co -hostess along
with their friend, Mrs. Ruth
Veno, for a bridal tea in
honour of Diane, whose for-
thcoming marriage next
Saturday is looked forward
to with happy anticipation.

Congratulations to the
many Clinton businessmen
who have taken the time and
effort to dress their windows
in salute to Klompen Feest.
Many .of . the • displaysare.
both interesting and educa-
tional. -
Also the worm damage
done to the tree planters,
which should have been
bursting with tulips just
about now, has been rec-
tified in no small way by the
dedicated efforts of Hor-
ticultural Society president
Margaret Sloman with the
help of other members. The
bare look has been replaced
by lovely spring flowers.

Scout news
With good weather and a
long weekend the Scouts had
a super time at the 7th an-
nual 82nd Invitational Troop
Camp held at Camp Sylvan.
The weekend consisted of
back -packing, hiking, out-
door cooking, all in prepara-
tion for the CJ 81 in July.
Special thanks to all the
fathers who assisted with the
leadership and
transportation:
No Interest
Charges id
Nilly Gully
No interest. charges for 12
months will be offered os a.
special incentive to all
purchasers of new motorcycles
Randy Collins of Hully Gully an-
nounced today.
Collins, who negotiated the deal
with o,Iocal bank believes he is
the Only motorcycle dealer in the
area to go interest free on all
new purchases. The program
means you can take one year to
pay by making 12 equal prin-
cipal only payments.
"Consumer response is expected
to be fantastic, particularly
when people are faced with
weekly increases in interest,"
Collins said. "We expect to sell
about $250,000 worth of new
motorcycles in a very short time
to interest free purchasers."
Hully Gully has built a reputa-
tion on extremely competitive
prices, backed up with an ex-
cellent service department. Now,
with the added benefits of not
having to pay interest, motorcy-
cle,sales are expected to surge
ahead.
Collins refused to comment on
how long the bank would allow
him to offer interest free
purchases... but, for the moment,
anyone who is even remotely in-
terested in buying a motorcycle
should contact him immediately.
Admiring their finished projects of the latest 4 -UI
home:asking project are the girls who won county honors
last week at the achievemtn night for completing six
projects. Back row, left to right, are Mary Gibson of the
Kippen club, Heather Lindsay of Goderlch, Elizabeth
Lawson of Londesboro, Colleen Bodges of Taylor9a Cos%
der°s, and Laurel Dillard td aleibe > a ve$

Beavers ready for jamboree
With CJ 81 less than seven
weeks away it appears the
attendance objective was
finally met. The latest
figures show that with hike -
masters, Scouts, Venturers
and Scouters, over 20,000 will
attend the CJ 81. This means
that for the period July 1 to
10, ,the jamboree site, a city
of more than 7,000 tents, will
be the eighth largest city in
Alberta. CJ 81 will now hold
the record as the biggest
camp in Canada.
In addition, 14 other coun-
tries have indicated that
they will send'a patrol to the
jamboree. They are
Australia, Barbados,
Bolivia, England, Honduras,
Israel, New Zealand, Peru,
St. Maarten, Sweden,
Trinidad, Taiwan,
Venezuela. and Norway. This
will make CJ 81 truly an In-
ternational Jamboree.
The exciting part of this
venture is that 25 Scouts and.
three Scouters will be
representing our Clinton
Troop. When CJ 81 was first
mentioned some time ago, it
seemed impossible that suf-
ficient funds would ever be
raised to meet; our objective.
Without the support of the
public in our fund raising
projects which included
bake sales, pancake brunch,
Scout dance, bottle drives,
Apple Day, calendar and
candle sales, this would not
be possible.
We appreciate also the
personal donation from the
Canadian Legion and the
support they have given us in
other ventures. Irvine
Tebbutt, Jack Tebbutt, Ken
Clynick, Ron Smith, Joe
Jankowski and George Cull
for their support in Trees for
Canada. Also a very special
thank -you to John
Mackeigan, owner of the Piz-
za Train, for his personal
donation to help the Scouts to
CJ 81 and for his generosity
throughout the year to the
Cubs and Beavers.
People have been helpful
and generous in so many
ways that it is impossible to
mention them all, we can on-
ly say "THANK YOU" on
behalf of all the Scouts in
Clinton and say they will be
proud to represent Clinton at
CJ 81.
BEAVERS:
Colony A: Rules of "Bike
Safety" were discussed and
demonstrated at the Beaver
pond. Doug St. Louis and
Don Shropshall were on hand
to show the Beavers proper
care and correct signals
while riding a bike. Obstacle
courses and stop lights were
also set up in the pond for the
Beavers to test their riding
skills. A 'short film called
Jiminey Cricket and bike
safety was also enjoyed by
the Beavers. Don Shropshall
then discussed with the
Beavers the 13 rules of bike
safety. Special thanks to
Doug St, Louis, Don Shrop-
shall and Bill Marsh for
sharing their time with the
colony.

for a night of musical fun.

ing game followed by a pup-
' pet show of Puff the Magic
Dragon, The Bremen Town
Musicians and Old Mac-
Donald had a Farm. Beavers
joined together in a sing-
song then formed a circle for
a hilarious game of musical
dress -up. Musical' in-
struments were then passed
out for the Beavers to make
their own kind of music and
play a new version of Hot
and Cold. Thanks to Rodney
Freeman and Tracy St.
Louis for assisting with the
puppet show.
