of the fun which creating our own fun provides it is good to see groups ifke st johns church choir putting a tot of hard work into a performance of minstrel show and better stilt to see a packed house two nights in a row enjoying with them the fruits of their labour the movies made a big dint in live entertain ment and television has dealt a further blow but there it stitl nothing to beat a stage show professional or amateur we will look forward to more such efforts on the part of focal groups it it a sertftus reflection on the younger genera- on growing watermelons tron that ihey are losing the capacity to entertain them selves blame envision or what you will things are selves blame television cars or what you will things are not the same as they were when we were a boy and it wasnt that many years ago either a case in point is tennis when georgetown was much smaller there were two active tennis clubs and there was much disap pointment when st johns church had to wreck their court in order to build a church hall today we find little interest even in the courts left at st georges and they often sit idle of a summer evening young people dont know what they are missing theres no better game for healthy recrea tion i wish to introduce to readers a new and excit ing hobby watermelon growing starts a catchy let ter received some lime ago from a gentleman in ham ilton who refers to himself as the watermelon grow er there is no greater pleasure than eating a fully rip ened cold piece of watermelon the letter continued as we began to drool and smack our lips on a dusty afternoon on main street before we had finished the letter we learned more about watermelons than we ever though we didn not know or to phrase it better we learned there is more to growing watermelons than meets the eye of even an experienced gardener the allimportant question is and we quote when is a watermelon ripe and what indicates its ripeness the answer js simple then came v pot pourri presbyterians are poor givers was a headline in daily papers last week which seemed to catch ev eryones eye as often the headline was more im portant than the story for it referred to a statement made by a former brampton minister rev a n mil ler at a church conference and were sure mr miller never intended it as a countrywide pronouncement certainly it doesnt tie in with the local church which at present is starting building a church hall which will cost several thousands of dollars reading last weeks acton free press saturday noon at the dinner table our 8yearold was attracted by the theatre ad end wanted to know when pinnochio was playing at the show we explained that this was an acton paper end referred to the acton show then were jolted by the innocent question when are we going to get a paper in georgetown dad this on top of a crit ic appraisal of the herald written as a thesis by skip sargent was almost enough to make the editor leave town skip islh kljx last year journalism course at ry arson and a major pajrt of his year was to etsume he was setting up an opposition weekly news paper in competition with the herald he didnt pull any punches and naturally in the interests of a good thetii didnt pick the best edition for his corflments either some of his theory was of course not sensible in a business way but there were many points which will be helpful to the editor in future and we thank the blow but for good and sufficient reasons it is kepi as a top secret by watermelon growers we had gone so far now that we were automat ically signing the requested stamped and selfaddres sed envelope no money required just a brief letter stating that we wanted seeds and the answer to the secret of the ripe watermelon then a sneak punch also in tftc letter one must solemnly swear i hereby promise not to tell the secret of the ripe watermelon to anybody else regretfully we tore up our stamped selfaddres sed envelope adding the unused stamp to the pile m the desk drawer which we always intend to steam off and use but never do we never could keep a secret and a vow is a vow even watermelon would taste dry if we broke faith and we dont like taking chances skip for some constructive criticism newlyweds mr and mrs bill girdwood must be good salesmen for georgetown mrs girdwoods parents mr and mrs harold mccrae presently living in guelph are also planning to move to
