Shearer is Speaker A Vision of Spring At Lions Club When • • • • 0 0 Spring came yesterday to town With a robin red and brown Weaning her new Easter bat, , A pale purple plaque that sat With a coy, coquettish flare On her rippling riuglets fair. Such a beautiful ebapeaul Crowned with violets, all aglow, From some sweet, sequestered dell, Where the nymplhs and fairies dwell, Fastened with a velvet vise In the ancient Tyrian dyes. Spring came yesterday to town In a gossamer mauve gown And the brown' earth cold and drear Warmed, and w,his-pored, "Sprung is here.” Jonquils sprang about her feet, But the dream was all too sweet, For that lovely April day Quickly passed and flew away.

PERCENTAGE OF BUSH BELOW SAFE LIMIT .Members of the Seaforth. Lions had as thein guests seventy-one young farmers of the d'i'strict at their meet- ing on Monday evemrimg. Held in Northside United Church,, the meeting was preroedeldr by a banquet tserved by monnbers of the Mae Lane Society of the church. '"Rev. IL V. Workman, pastor of the church, welcomed the members of the club and their guests. Lions J. M. McMillan and A. Y. McLean had change of the program, the Latter act- ing as chairman. Dr. P. J. Burrows paid touching tri - ,bete to the memory of the late Chas'. Stewart, who for many years was a valued member of the club, after which the members and their guests observed a minute's silence. "The rural population of this pro- vince acts as a stabilizing influence," J. C. Shearer, Hunon county agricul- tural represrentttiv.e, told the meeting. "Phelse ane troublesome times, but '1herei has been no trouble or friction -or attacks of iasis because of this stabilizing influence." The speaker previously called attention to the ne- cessity of co-operation between town and county and expressed his plea- sure at seeing such a gathering as was present for;, be said, it exempli- fied this co-operation. The advantages of farm life, the speaker said, were home, health, se- curity and the benefit of a staple oc- cupation. Offsetting these was the Lack of .pur•dhaaing power, lack of sociability and team work. Mr_ Shearer noted an effort being made tb alleviaate some of these dis- advantages and paid tribute to the work being douse by Junior Women's Institurtes and similar organizations. In Huron this year there will be 160 boys between 12 and 20 engaged in swine and grain . clubs. This experi- ence, the speaker stressed, was of in- estimable valve to the boys. Ibeferninug to ...marketing problems, the speaker told the meeting that it was necessary to study conditions. The West was suited for grain, while Ontario was better adapted to live- stock. "Why net then," the speaker asked, "feed Western grain to live- stock here and thus use up the sur- plus?" Touching on the subject of refor- estation, M:r. Shearer pointed out that in Huron there were 800,000 assessed acres, of vehieh less than 6 per. cent; was bush. Authorities agree, he said, that 12 per cent. is the minimum amount of ,bulli land to guarantee against erasion, flooding and dry riv- ers and wells,. The problem of reforestation is link- ed 'up, the ea.'id, with that of conserva- tion and inereased'tourist trade vwhaich the termed ,"an undeveloped farmer's market." Recomatrteuding registered, seed as a. scaelr line, Mr. Shearer pointed, out that only ,three farmers in Herron were producears of registerea need. which brings at least 10 cents a bush- el extra. Tied in with tbds was the necessity of getting the weed sfltua- tipn in the county under control` PreskIent Dr. F. J. Beclbely of the club expressed the thanks of the gathening to the speaker and R. S. McKercher spoke briefly on behalf of ,the guests. • Blyth Home Has Narrow Escape Early Monday morning the home of Mr. Jahn Heffron escaped the rav'age's of fire, dare to quick action on the pant of the lady of the house.

C., BELL WILL REMOVE FOLS FROM GODER ICH STREET Ruinous Tree Trimming is Avoided By Rear Distribution. IMMEDIATE START Removal of aLl Hydro. and Belt Tele- phone poles on Godericli Street from Vittoria Street to Adam Street, will commence shortly, following a meet- ing there Wednesday between H.E.P.C. and Belt engineers and officials of the P.U.C. All residences will shortly be served from the rear. Rear distribution was suggested by the P.U.C. when it was learned that proposed distribution changes on the part' of the Bell Oompaany would re- sult in either a new pone line along the south side of Goderldh, Street, or higher poles on the north side, In ,either event extensive tree trimming ••;ouddl have been necessary, which would have done much to spoil the beauty of the. street. Wishing , to avoid this damage, the local comrmis- sim contacted Bell officials and sug- gested the alternative scheme of rear distribution. The survey on Wednesday revealed roar distribution was feasible and at a reasonable cost. ' ' Co-operation of the ' property own- -ens an the street must be obtained; in that it will be necessary for them to give permission to ereot poles on the rear of their properties. The Cern- mission does not anticipate any diffi- culty in this regard, because of the improved appearance of the street which will result from the removal of the poles. Officials of the Bell Com- pany and P.U.C. will shortly visit the property owners and request the nec- essury,• permission. While the Bell poles will be remov- ed within a few weeks, Hydro poles on the north side wall remain until services have been changed. This will be done by the P.U.C. as funds permit and will be completed within two or three years. • PUBLIC SCHOOL PUPILS WILL HOLD MUSIC FESTIVAL Pupils of the Seaforth public school will take part in a music festival which is being held in Northside United Church on Friday evening, April 28th• at 7.30 p.m. The program will inclucie junior and senior solos, duets and choruses., The adjudicator will be Mr. W.

Well Known Couple Mark 52nd Wedding Anniversary t • Mr. and Mrs. William Butt, Seaforth, Were Married At Hensall On April 20, 1887. SPEND DAY QUIETLY AT HOME HERE Mr. and Mrs. William Butt, highly respected residents of Tuckersmith and Later of Seaforth, quietly cele- bnated the 52nd anniversary of their wedding on Thursday at their home here. Mr. and Mrs. Butt were mar- ried in Hensall on April 20, 1887, by Rev. Mr. Torrance. Mr. and Mrs. Butt began their mar- ried life on their farm, Lot 22, Com. 2, fID Tuckersmith Township, where they continued to reside until retiriaug to Seaforth about 22 years ago. They shave a family of four boys, William, Edgar and Thomas Wellington, of Kipper; Roy Arnold, of Holmesville, and John) Elam, of Flint, Mich. Mrs. Butt before her marriage was Catharine Workmaun, daughter of Mr. and, Mrs. John Workman, and was born in Stanley Township, later re- moving with her family to Tucker - smith. Mr. Butt was born at Darling- ton, in Eastern Ontario, but spent the greater part of his early life in Us - borne. He ce'.ebeated his 87th birth- day in February. A easter of the bride, Mary Ann Wcrkman, now 'Mrs. R. 1'. .Bell, of Seafo 1' r, was brides- maid at the wedding of fifty-two years ago and the groomsman was a cou- sin or the groom, Thomas Greenwood, of Lumley, in Western Canada. Mts. Butt has three sisters living: Mrs. It. P. Bell, Seaforth; Mrs. James F. Reid, Toronto; Mrs. A-rohie McGre- gor, Scaforth, and three brhers have predeceased her, Davids and Thomas, of Tuckersmith, and John, of Kippen.

In speaking of the pioneer days Mr. Butt remarked that there weren't many dances in Usborne - except in the hotels. Cern husking bees, apple paring bees, taffy pulls and coon thmnat- ing were among the popn,Aa:r pastimes. Asked if there were any bears, he replied there were more girls around than bears. Mr. Butt Rept a tgood horse 'and buggy and when they start- ed the day after the wedding to go to the bride's new home a neighbor wishing to add noise to the wedding celebration fired off a gun as they drove past. The effect it had on the horse was startling and its capers gave the bride a few anxious morn - eats. In these days the young people had a good time in a different way to the young people of the present day. This worthy pioneer is not air - minded. He prefers to spend the re- mainder of his days on the ground, but he enjoys a car ride. He approves of liquor far medicinal purposes but not as a beverage. Mr. Butt never oarried a pipe in his life, put likes to see anyone enjoy a stmrake if llhey wish. Whenever he gets the present of a cigar lie passes it on to a neigh- bor or friend. He says he shots his eyes when he sees a woman, smoking, it doesn't look natural. He .is not sure what the girl of tomorrow will be like. • • SalvationArmy has Special Speaker Captain Hughes of the Salvation Army, London, scpent the week -end in town.
