Page Two = THE HAILEYBURIAN THURSDAY, AUGUST 4, 1955 THE HAILEYBURIAN Founded by C. C. Farr in 1904 EDITORIALS What does Haileybury lack that North Bay, Temagami, and other tourist centers apparently possess? The answer, of course, is not a thing. But that doesn't explain the fact that the streets of Temag- ami are crowded with cars. One Temagami businessman estimat- ed that tourists spend $20,000 a day during the tourist season, in the Temagami area. And this may be a conservative estimate. Nérth Bay's prosperity was largely due to the tourist indus- try, although the clty is now at- tracting manufacturing plants. And North Bay's street are crowded with gaily dressed tourists, while they are few and far betwen less than 100 miles north, ; Haileybury chamber of com, merce, in association with the Cobalt and New Liskeard chamb- ers of commerce, has spent a good deal of money on adyer- tising brochures and other forts to attract the tourists, but we doubt if any merchant will disagree with the statement that there are fewer American dollar than ef- bills in his till this year, there were last.

If the tourists don't come to this area, then the fault must be close to home. EES MARILN BELL Well done Marilyn. Everybody is saying it, and there's no reas- on why we shouldn't say it too.

AAAA DL For towns that are comparatively young, (a mere fifty or sixty years), the Tri-towns are noted for the beauty of their gardens, shrubs and flowers. The lilacs in the spring are particu- larly beautiful, and in my opinion, at least, no matter how many new varie- ties of shrubs are grown, none can Surpass, in beauty and perfur the old-fashioned purpie and ma Sin They always, biting back m es ofivisits to a favourite auht, wao fad a row of them all along one side of her lawn. gh And here is an idea for young gar- deners who may perhaps not know it; all seed pods should be removed from your lilac trees, gardening authorities say, as they use up food and water that should be going into next year's flowers. : ee * During these boiling hot days, when the very thought of a hot m makes you feel faint, have you ever tried a macaroni ad which may be pre- pared early in the day while it is still reasonably cool? To two cups of cooked and cooled macaroni add one cup of cubed fun- cheon meat, three ot four chopped green onions and one tomato cut in small pieces, mix well and add salad dressing to suit your taste. A bit of chopped green pepper is an improve- ment, too. Rp Ke d A custom which is said to have been followed in one section of ancient Greece was that when a man proposed law in the Assembly, he did- so standing on a platform with a rope around his neck. which was attached to the ceiling. If his law good enough to pass, the rest of the mem- bers removed the rope, if it failed to pass, they removed the platform. The ancients had some good idéas, didn't they? eK * Children are a perpetual source of wonder to me especially as regards the amount of energy that is theirs on a hot day. They can race, swim, climb and slide without ever seeming to get tired until their parents want them to go to the store for a loaf of bread, or pick up some of their toys that are scattered all around. Then woe is me! The heat is terrific, their legs are aching and their sunburn hurts. There is an old saying that "child- ren should be seen and not heard", and believe me, I would like to have seen the -one who pulled every lily- blossom and bud off the one plant I own, and threw them on the ground to wither. If they had even taken them home I wouldn't have felt so badly. * * ina THE SPEED + ACCURACY HAILEYBURY, ONTARIO We can give quick service in supplying custom made rubber stamps...at budget prices.

HAILEYBURIAN The rain that fell last week-end certainly proved the truth of the old saying "a million dollar rain". It was the kind that the old Kentucky circuit riders used to pray for, "A sod soaker, Lord, a gentle sizzle- sozzle". Anyway, even those farmers who had hay cut welcomed it and the firefighters and gardeners were down- right thankful. I heard of one gard- encr who remarked Saturday morning, "the cucumbers are laughing this morning." 7 * ke On one of the hottest days last week I went into the post office and received a card asking me to call at the order office for my winter catalogue. The next day I received a box of sample Christmas cacl:, s> "If summer is hot, winter m near', And Ye- membering t} 1, rain and more rain that we i. nost continuously last year, while » © \vere trying to get a basement dug 21 a foundation put under our house, i can still feel a bit thankful for the heat. I can at least Across the Kitchen Table } go down into the basement now and get cooled oii. *x* k * There are times when my mind goes. sort or blank and I just cam not think inything to write about. That ned tonight so I said to my husband, "have you any ideas for my column?" His reply was "tell them about the time you set the hens drunk." He meant feathered ones, not the ones you see coming out" of he beverage rooms at times. So, to make a long story short, it happened n the days when we lived on the farm and I used to do up fruit in two-quart sealers, instead of the pints and jelly glasses I use now. One partly used sealer of peaches fer- mented and I threw it out over the barnyard fence. I had a particularly nice flock of white Rock hens and that afternoon, just after an Mmsurance agent had driven in (with an automo- bile, which s still something of a rarity) I discovered one of my hens staggering around the yard, and im- mediately blamed him for hitting it k = around. However, > probing its limbs for broken benes, I saw another one in the same condition, then another, and another, until finally, I saw them comings from where I had thrown the peaches out ! My husband threw one of them that persisted in dancing around in front of the horses, into the haymow. She stayed there all night and came out the next morning, still stepping high and with a Sairy Gamp leer in her eye. But believe me, nothing like that ever happened around our place again. If any fruit fermented after that, I dug a hole in the ground and buried it. "* This is the time of year that my African violets take on new life and really begin blossoming. For such a long time i never could get one to grow for me, even when I was given a rooted leaf, it would eventually die, but one day while I was in Cobalt, I went into the post office to mail a letter and while there, I admired the lovely plants growing in the windows, so the lady at the wicket gave me two leaves. Both of them grew and thrived and since then, I have never had any difficulty in rooting leaves of any colour. I think I have given away over fifty plants, besides having a dozen or so little ones in pots for our church bazaars each year. I have quite a few varieties now, and I use a fairly flat wide bulb bowl to root them in. I use a half and half mixture of good garden soil and sand, and stick the leaves with about an inch of stem attached, into the soil with the leaf resting on the edge of the bowl. Keep the soil moist and when the roots begin to form, the leef will raise off the bowl. In about six weeks or two months the tiny leaycs begin to ap- pear and soon they are big enough to transplant into smali pots, but he sure to leave the parent leaf on until the plant is. well established. x * It will soon be gladioli time again. I don't think there is any other flower that gives so much for so little as the glad. It is well named. They last so _ long as cut flowers and can be ar- ranged in so many different ways. And speaking of cut flowers, I do hope that some of you who have plenty of them will remember to take e to the poor souls in the incur- ard in the hospital. For several i have salvaged many of the that would otherwise be wn out at the end of the flower vs, and taken them down to those patients and their joy in receivin; them is-something to remember. 2 For Utmost Satisfaction and Prompt Payment By Money Order Daily -- Ship Your Blueberries © To the Old-Established Firm S.
