thrill in tbat announcement and invariably theres an incentive to dress up a bit in honor of tbe oom- pany tbat goes for almost any home in the land but tills year companys coming in a really biff way we nope not merely to our in dividual homos but to oanada at large and tbe company thats coming will be made up largely of paying guests who wish to see our great country at its very best we want these guests from south of tbe border and we havent the slightest compunction in admitting that we want their money in gener ous quantity for to that money we are looking for additional wherewithal to continue our share in the war to extorminate hltleiiam for all time so with company coming its high time forurj all as good hosts to dress up a bit certainly tbe ontario de partment of highways already had led the way for relatively few great high ways in the eastern portion of tola continent are superior in landscape log to the queen elizabeth way which links toronto with niagara falls that is a very concrete example of the sort of dressing up for company which should be applied all over canada this spring well in advance of the tourist season true enough landscape schemes can not be as lavish everywhere as on the queen elizabeth way but at least there can be a generous individual and concerted use of trees since these are one of the cheapest most easily avail able of all canadian commdditles thus there remains not the slightest excuse for the many treeless gardens urban thoroughfares through high ways and country roads which still keep canada from looking her best and quite aside from aesthetics of course treeplanting has permanent economic value for canada in pre venting soil erosion in tnflt water supplies in forming protective windbreaks dont let us stop then with the lusty singing of the maple leaf for ever instead let us make sure of mapfe leaves forever by planting maple trees now to grace our homes and line our thoroughfares with irv ing green there is no oner tree none more suitable for a country with tbe maple leaf as its symbol sometimes the most important part of a landscapebeautifying project is tbe screening of unsightly views or ob jects poplars quick of growth and majestic in then- tail dignity are particularly useful for aoreen-plant- ing apart from that they always are definitely dramatic when planted as sentinels to guard a boundary line or as guardians of the driveways country homes flowering trees though also should be included if canada is to look her loveliest tbe catalpa the horse chest nut the flowering cherry tbe black locust these would add tothe charm of any garden while for gaiety of ber ries a comprehensive plantinglist should not omit the mountain ash nor should evergreens be overlooked since th year round amsacuveness important asset visitors will note with pleasure the homes made attraotlveby a profusion gay flowers a sweep of wellkept lawn a leafy cloak of vines so it is obvious that every householder has certain measure of responsibility canada is to take rank as a place of beauty and do go in for shrubs there s a wealth of beautifying material in this category flowering almond butterfly bush hawthorn deirbda siberian pea lilac russian olive hydrangea bus honeysuckle syringa kerrla flowering currant welgeua spiraea and broom nor can a householder call it a day when bis garden baa had its due measure of attention not if his house remains shabby and generally rundown 1 threes up in many cases wlu have to be interpreted as paint up yes almost any short drive whether in town or country wlu con vince even a doubting thomas that oanada stands in need of a good ses sion with the paintbrush this spring if everything is to look spick and span against that friendly invasion of pay ing guests we hope for during the summer to come paintingboth outdoors and in for tunately is something which can be accomplished even tbough as is in evitable botb akuled and unskilled labor becomes increasingly scarce of course a lot of householders might be averse to tackling the painting of an entire house with patience time and practice however they could manage tbe freshing up of trim shutters and porches and thereby vastly enhance tbe appearance of their houses to say nothing of the protection which that painting would extend to tbe expo woodwork and with gray war clouds con stantly overhead perhaps a greater gaiety in our painting colorschemes might be salutary if then some ap parently conservative householder has bad a burled longing for a touch of bright color on the exterior of his home now is his golden opportunity to gratify himself provided of course that the wanted coloring will not stir up immediate conflict with tbe color- schemes of any closely neighboring houses so now let us get on with our pleas ant and profitable task of beautifying oanada with fresh paint flowers and troest l g klein gives illustrated lecture the illustrated lecture given by mr l q klein of the ojuc at the lib rary thursday evening april i7tb proved to be a great treat this was arranged as an opening feature for the canvas for members for tbe hor
