The advent of springtime warmth sends the backyard gardener outsto start his sea sons tasks Likely as not the gardening man approaches his long session of toll and lays with mingled feelings First off he can make up his mind to en dure aching muscles and stiffened joints for week or more after his initial bout with the soil Warm sunshine the perfume of bursting buds and the general sense of well being at the grrivnl of spring combine to lull him loo false feeling of unlimited capacity for hard Work The satisfaction of turning over the rich black earth makes him stay with the task for longer than he should The next day he pays the price in aches and pains and blisters But by that time hes out buying plants and seeds his en thusiasm for gardening still on the rise Sunburn is his next hazard Its hard to realise the suns rays can sear as painfully in early spring as in late July but the throb of lobsterrcd skin around the neck and forehead after long afternoons planting will attest to it Once the planting is completed the gar dener says hes going to sit back and Watch the garden grow and perhaps take Satur day off for fishing Trouble is when the seedlings shoot up so do the weeds That means the gardening man must do plenty of booing and weeding with fresh batch of physical discomfort Then comes midsummer glorious season of growth and fulfilment Its also the time when the gardener has to spray and dust to fight insect pests attacking his growing crops Finally in the long slow cycle of the sea sons harvest time comes It brings the work of gathering in the fruits of the months of toll It also has its accompanying satis factions That is when the gardener tenderly picks up the potatoes and carrots from his own vegetable plotnnd handles them admiringly Try to tell him he might just as well buy them at the store and save himself lot of trouble and his reaction will be one of min gled pity and scorn Probably he couldnft put it into words this feeling about his garden But he counts as one of his yearly satisfactions the sowing the cultivation and the reaping the partner ship with the good earth in spite of its physical hardships Good Health Importanl Speaking before the annual convention of the Ontario Homeand School Federation in Toronto Dr Zeigler of the University of Western Ontario took as his text the fact that in two world wars onethird of the male population or Canada had to be rejected for military service before they were totally unfit This he said indicated that preSent health education methods in Ontarioare not adequate to meet presentday needs Dr Zeigler is member of the department of physical health and recreation at the Unlversityof Western Ontario He revealed the fact that the Department of Educatiou had prepared and outlined thorough course on health but it had to be held in abeyance because teachers were not qualified to teach it The London Free Press has this to say The artment of Education has certainly outlined athorough course and if this is not adequately absorbed by the children it may enoughitimeiscgiuentoii Qan ada is welfareconscious these days Being healtbeconsciouscould be something else Health159 complex problem and health itself vital concern to the nation Parents and teachers and most of us have to be convincedof its essential nature Health is everybody8 business In spite of these comments and Dr Zeig lcrs address we believe that great advances are beingmadc in the direction of increas mg public awnrness of measures to promote good health The Health League of Canada and organizations

Stratford Ontario is determined in an artistic scilcc to become Canadian counter part of its namesake city in England Plans are under way to make it the centre for Shakespearean productions in this country and towards that end Shakespearean Fes tival Theatre is being built there The cere mony of turning the first sod of that edifice was held recently and it was the forerun ner of pcrioc of intense activity to have it ready for lhe start of rehearsals for the opening presentation on June This Festival Theatre will be no unusual type of structure It will be tent theatre with complete stage and other equipment essential for its operation The stage is bc ing built in Slratford workshop and was specially designed to serve the needs Oi Shakespearean productions In this tent theatre it is planned to carry on summer season of Shakespeares plays The venture is the result of the interest and hard work of group of Strutlord cit izens who are anxious to develop in this country the traditions which surround Strat fordonAvon in England the birthplace of the great playWrigiIt They have shown con siderable enterprise andnot little courage in undertaking such venture in country in which stage productionsVhavc to very large degree been subordinated to the popu larity of the motion picture theatre How ever as cultural movement designed to recapture for the people of Canada all the beauty and glory of the Shakespearean the atre it is highly commendable enterprise and one which deserves the full measure of support necessary to make it success In due course if it is given that support the time may come when our Stratford will be able to erect permanent theatre akin to the Shakespeare Memorial Theatre in the town from which it takes its numg Editorial Notes We agree with The Carlyle Observer that the hardest thing about making money last is making it first Canadas biggest industry looks to another year of plenty early reports from across the nation indicate In general agriculture is off to good start Seed houses report de mand brisk But dont look for bannel farm year says The Financial Post Carry overs are large domestic prices are dipping some with eggs among the
