Thomas Jefferson By Harvey Malcolm "On raking leaves" As any idiot knows, even I know, there are many ways to rake leaves. Being blessed with half a dozen monstrous Split-Leaf Maples Maples surrounding our domicile domicile which shed some billion leaves each, we consider ourselves ourselves an authority on the subject. No one else does, but we do. Now that we are semi- retired we have occasion to devote more of our "working" "working" day to the endless pursuit pursuit of this menial occupation. occupation. When we were actively engaged in farming, our preoccupation preoccupation with the disposal of those arboreal cadavers was more or less limited to the "Day of Rest" somewhere somewhere after church and before before supper. We vividly recall recall one such occasion when we were so ardently in pursuit pursuit of the little darlings that our "devoted"!?) children children all came outside and asked if we should "like a hand". Not being overly stupid stupid we naturally replied in the affirmative. They stood there for a moment, gave me a round of applause and promptly disappeared back within the confines of the house. Ungrateful wretches! wretches! This year we thought we'd tiy a new gimmick - we'd pulverize them. So we jumps on the tractor lawn mower and heads into their midst full speed ahead. Boy did those leaves fly in every direction. Now, instead of 50,000 leaves per sq. metre, we now have 500,000 dessiented leaves per sq. M. You may have now jumped to the conclusion conclusion that the experiment was a dismal failure. And you would be right. The trick is to get Mother Nature to blow you up a hurricane and to have it blow from the appropriate direction. There are certain unmentionable things, one should never do against the wind. Add raking leaves to that list. Now that you have arranged arranged to have your gale blowing in the right direction direction - towards your neighbours' neighbours' lawns if you're in town or city or as in our case out in the country, in the f encrai direction of the Yews' com acreage. Now, all you have to do is stir them up like a giant mix- master and hope for the best. If you're lucky Mother Nature will take care of the rest. If you're not, do as we did and load them into the back of the half ton truck cap and cart them off somewhere somewhere where you can hopefully hopefully burn the little Eighties. Eighties. We question the advisability of frying to compost compost them, having been told 'they carry over all kinds of parasites and accessory un- desireables to "bug" you next season. Our last word of warning, is to never look back after you rake for there yoii will find a brand new crop, like mushrooms, so you can start all over again. Students in grade nine and 12 at St. Stephen's High School, in conjuction with Community Care, participated in a yard work day for seniors in Bowmanville. They performed such tasks as raking leaves and cleaning windows.
