WONDERLAKE GARDENCLUB As luck would have it, the weather held for our March meeting at Mrs. Ruth Kinzie's home with our speaker, William Thompson from a local florist. While Thompson's topic was "What's New in Gardening", it seems the simple basics are always the most ef- 653-9549 fective; proper light, water, and soil, plus some of the new virus-free plants. Thompson pointed out that plants in a greenhouse have 100 percent light, while at home 50 percent or less and fertilizing (with mild solution) with each watering, rather than once a month is desirable. He recommended hybrid seeds for large flowers and vigorous plants. Our questions were many and his answers very helpful, making this program a special one. Again, anyone interested in gardening is most cor dially invited to attend our meetings. Mrs. B. Alderson Publicity Chairwoman SPECIAL DAYS I was reminded that I forgot my own cousin, Pat Diedrich's birthday, which was March 23. Better late than never, Pat. Happy birthday. Also in the same family, Ralph Diedrich celebrated his birthday April 4. It's a good thing he has experience being a fire fighter with all those candles! Today, Ben Choitz of Wonder Woods will be celebrating his ninth bir thday. It will be extra special for him also because he will be attending his Cub Scout pack meeting tonight. Tomorrow, April 8, Jill Weber, daughter of Art and Mary Weber, will be blowing out two candles on her birth day cake. She will be having two parties, one this weekend with her dad's side of the family, and then, on Easter, with her Mom's side of the family. A pretty im portant little Miss!
