Soceity on Land scaping the Modern Home Mr Drysdale is one of Canadas younger top men in the horticultural field and Barrie was very fortunate to et him He had just flown in am Calgary but delivered an illustrated talk that even the most amateur gardner could understand His whole talk was based an illustrated slides of homes landscaped the right way and others landscaped the wrong way Where the wrong plants were used he told what would have been better Where the plantings were misplaced he showed where they should have been He showed where wrong colour combinations were used for accent with plan tings how stones around flower beds make mowing the lawn more difficult Mr Drysdale said he never could understand why people who dont like to mow grass or do hard work create so much workfor themselves that is not necessary just by lanning pogorgie points he stressed were The whole purpose of landscaping is to marry the building to the ground The use of Evergreens in landscaping makes your home distinct from the rest The use of Annuals with Evergreens gives colour ac cent Vines like Euonymus Clematis Silver Lace Vine Trumpet Vine Boston Ivy Virginia Creeper he recom mended for specific pur poses Never use Jumpers for shady areas use YCWS If you are happy with the way you have landscaped your home dont change it for anyone it is your home and its you who must live withit Ground Covers for shady places and slopes were recommended He stressed that Star Magnolia can be grown in Barrie so can PJM Rhododendron and Japanese Maple but they need extra care and some protection He mentioned there is in teresting work being done in Saskatchewan on Sumac and within the next ten years we will see new developments in this familiar shrub He showed the difference between Mountbatten Juniper and the more modern and better Skyrocket Juniper Mr Drysdale stressed that small trees only should be planted on small lots Mr Drysdale is editing new all Canadian Homes and Gardens magazine and sam ple copies are being provided the society as soon as they are published He was introduced at the meeting by George Pearsall and thanked by Earl Kellough SOCIETY NEWS We

letters OTTAWA CP Gun lob byists are at least holding their own in paper war so voluminous it could get the post office out of the red At least 15000 form letters from worried gun owners have arrived here since the peaceandsecurity bill which contains the proposed new gun controls was unveiled late in the winter The letters are drafted by wildlife groups which give them to members along with stamped selfaddressed en velope All the members have to do is sign and send them to their MP5 The MP5 then refer the let ters to the peace and security commission government information group set up to handle publicity and answer mail Although the commission mailed 300000 information kits during the winter they have not erased confusion anger and fear about the bill The commission has had to quadruple the origional four member staff assigned to an swering the letters Meanwhile the Commons justice committee has heard thebills provisions for licen sin rifles and shotguns at tac ed by broad range of groups including the Canadian Wildlife Association the Canadian Bar Association and police native and civil rights youps The basic criticism is that licensing will not hinder criminals but will hinder honest citizens Even the Senate legal af fairs committee says the ex tensive regulatory provisions needed for gun control should not be in the Criminal Code Under the law person would have to get licence to buy rifle shotgun or am munition He would have to find two guarantors to attest to his fitness to have gun The government says the system would at least prevent people just out of prisons or mental hospitals or impulse killers from walking into store and buying gun But the lobby form letters disagree saying such things as This unwarranted im position of gun controls and registration on the private and lawabiding gun owner is not onl wasteful of tax dollars But utterly useless as far as controlling the criminal element is con cerned Majority MPs appear to favor death penalty OTTAWA CP After hours of debate and thousan ds of words were spent on the subject Crawford Douglas BruceGrey made determined effort this week to bring the Commons capital finishment issue back to SIcs Abolition of the death pen alty brings up the simple question do we abolish the death penalty His personal answer to the question is no Mr Douglas is one of 32 W5 so far who have taken Ert in debate on the bill to the noose By Thursday Canadian Press boxscore showed that his retentionist stand was in the majority total of 21 speakers said they favor retention of the death penalty compared with 11 who want it abolished Like many figures being used in the debate however the statistic is somewhat misleading After four days of Commons debate 11 MP5 spoke in favor of the bill 11 against On the fifth day all 10 speakers were reten tionists With nunber of debating days to come party spokesmen say there un doubtedly will be sessions when all speakers take the Salvage experts try to save Spains coast LA CORUNA Spain Reutert Dutch salvage experts arrived today to try to save the northwest coast of Spain from an oilspill disaster following the wreck of Spanish tanker at the harbor entrance of La Coruna on Wednesday The town council of La To runa asked the government Thursday night to declare the city and its long inlet disaster zone Navy officials said the Out ch experts will try to pump 80000 to 90000 tons of crude oil believed to be still in the wrecked tanker lirquiola to another ship Smoke continued to rise from the upright stern of the lrquiola today two days af ter it ran aground at the bar bar entrance and was rocked by explosions Until the fire is ex tinguished and all dangers of further explosions are ruled out it will not be possible for the salvage team to begin its operations Officials said divers will first inspect the hull of the Urquiola believed to be in one piece to determine whether any oil is still leaking Fine weather raised hopes of successful operation WEATHER IIllrl The officials stressed that change in weather conditions might cause new explosions because rough seas might stir up gases in the tanks on the wreck An estimated 5000 tons of crude oil have already reached La Ioruna inlet leaving black blanket at low tide on its sandy beaches Constables testify TORONTO CPI Metropolitan Ioronto police constables testified Thursday in Ontario Supreme Court that two of three persons ac cused of murdering Sontosh Kumari Bali initially denied knowing the victim but changed their stories when charged Harbhajan Singh Math 37 his brother

38 Ti ornrn ANt IIHIH ALL gt II mama II lt AIH lllUI HHS BEE HERE can on I3Ifll WINNERS 71 PRIZES OF pposite view Those who favor retention of the death penalty 0c casionally use the argument that the state saves sub stantial amounts of money when it executes convicted murderers Federal statistics show that it costs about $14000 year to keep prisoner in peniten tiary and those who support use of the noose say the coun try could therefore save about $150000 if the 11 prison ers now on death row were hanged SolicitorGeneral Warren Allmand an abolitionist at tempted to rebut this during his Commons speech on the issue saying it may be cheaper to keep convicted murderers in jail The bulk of rison costs are fixed he sai and it would make little difference to the overall costs of running peni tentiaries if the 11 were hanged or not The $14000ayear cost is determined by dividing the total number of prisoners into the total cost of running federal prisons But Mr Allmand said it actually costs only about $350 day or about $1300 year to add an attra prisoner to the system DEATH NOTICE Bracalente Elpedio Retired from CNR 47 years and well known in market gardening At the Royal Victoria
