v page sdc the acton free press acton ontario l thursday june 14th lttfl chronicles of ginger farm intended for last week at long last the countryside is looking very green and very beau tiful and there is blossom every- where cnerry and- apple trees halton mamor no farm news dim to the illness st the actc- itaral representative k waritdeek the pepelar item news catena walek renarauy this wit will bmt be flowering almond and japonica all in ful bloom this in spite of sev eral anxious nights when frost threatened to blacken flowers fruit blossoms and vegetables from present indications lilacs and lilies of the valley should soon be out in bloom shedding their fragrance in to the air about a month late of course but better late than never dont you think and now that we can get around in the garden without rubber boots bnt it fun finding out what plants have survived the winter i was delighted to find jjansies m bloom r and ever so many seedlings of the siberian wallflower one of my readers gave me last year also new shoots of iris and a few peren nials all my geraniums are now outside but still in their pots it has been for too wet to set them out in the garden but oh dear i was really afraid i was going to lose them all it was that very hot day that 1 carried all the plants out to the garden and what happened you remember dont you the temper atures- suddenly droppednd we had frost for two nights i took a chance and did not cover the ger aniums next morning i was almost afraid to look at them finally i plucked up courage and they were all right after caring for the plants all winter wouldnt it have been awful to lose them in june another thins we did on that first liot day last week was take the furnace pipes down and clean them at least partner did i also thought summer had come and put my coat in storage two days later well i didnt get mj coat home but we were only too glad to have the furnace going again partner says we shall soon have to make plans each year for getting in our summer coal supply was there ever such a chilly first week in june however it is nice weather for housecleamng among other things i managed to get all our windows cleaned last week at least on the inside until then we were looking at the world through a glass darkly the out side i couldnt clean as most of the windows still have the storms on guess we hadnt better take them off yet just as well not to get too rash all at once maybe i was even a little premature in getting an oil change in the car the other day incidentally while that little job was being done the garage lent me a car to come home with when i got into it i wondered if l would fall apart before i got home then i noticed it carried a safety check sticker and that the motor seemed to be running well so i felt reas sured which confirms an opinion expressed by someone a few days ago that safety stickers may build up a false sense of security anyway at the red traffic light the car stalled and i couldnt start it i fussed around with the ignit ion turning it on and off but nothing happened a truck driver came to my assistance pressed the button and away she went i had forgotten that some cars have push button starters even my little mo ris was automatic ill be more ob servant next time 1 drive a strange car which isnt likely to be often because under ordinary circum stances i refuse to drive anv car other than m own well 1 imagine the first few davs of june 1956 will be remem bered for other things besides the cool weather there was at least onejiot spot the house of com mons at ottawa if and when the gas gets moving one can imagine it might be almost hot enough to warp the pipes it is to be hoped there are not too mam heart at tacks before the affair is settled such terrific projectsas there are taking place from time to time i wonder how many people saw the st lawrence seaway story on television it gave a very clear picture of what is happening but yet the overall picture is so im mense and with such farreaching results that it staggers the imagin ation what a marvellous age we are living in dont you hate to miss one single detail of all the develop ments that are in progress many of which ore beyond our under standing we know some folk like to be a big fish in a little puddle but i think it is far more exciting to be a little fish in a great big puddle there are exceptions of course for instance here comes an cctra big fash our new grandson is just arriving for his first visit to ginger farm he doesnt know it but at the moment he is very very big fish and the rest of us splash around ver happily in the little puddle which we have created around hun well there you are that contradicts mv previews state ment of course but then life is full of paradoxes isnt it includ ing the weather for instance what is so rare as a da xh j une 1 wouldnt knov for its raining again people bu the free press to read and read the free press to buy residents hear sunday sermons sunday afternoon june 3 and june 1ft inspiring church services were held in the chapel of the manor on sunday june 3 rev d a powell rector of grace anglican church milton came to conduct the service he was accompam x by mrs ray waters whose aith- fulness in coming to the manor to play the accompaniments for the hymns is greatly appreciated after reading the scripture les son mr powell preached an elo quent sermon on the story of christs meeting with nicodemus mr powell explained that al though many sinners came to jes us for help nicodemus could not be included in this group for he was a good man and a master of 3srae he came to jesus because he recognized him asya great leader he was hearthungry for religious consolation for although he knew the what of religion he did not know the how christ told him that he must be born again and the same thing applies to us in our own day a person is born again when he becomes conscious that god must be the centre of his life in this way we become followers of christ just as nicodemus be came a follower of christ centuries ago service last sunday on sunday june 10 the ehurtn service was conducted by rev e orsborn minister of knox presbyt erian church milton mr orsborn brought with him mrs stewart lockie who is a fine vocalist as well as an accomplished pianist mr orsborn preached a very fine sermon on the 103rd psathr of mercy mr orsborn pointed out psalm is as true for our own lives that the message contained lin this and in our own day and age as it was in the psalmists own time the psalmist begins his descript ion of gods mercies with the very significant words who forgiveth thine iniquities following th is he thanks god for the material things of life such as food and drink go ing further the psalmist speaks of gods pity for his children and des cribes his mercy as everlasting limehouse area residents at many social events mr and mrs briggs were guests -at- the taylorla wton wedding in woodbine
