Master Scott Hardie enter- talngd four of his little friends Victoria Square Phone Gormley 5421 Correspondent Mrs. W. Sandle 1n the Sunday school Judge Chambers said the tendency for most young people is to spread their activi- ties too much with the result both home and school lives suffer. She pointed out parents should. decide how much out- side activity is good for their children and stick to their decision. Toronto Family Court Judge Margaret Chambers told the annual meeting of York- Slmcoe Home and School Asso- ciation's Council in Richmond Hill recently, the child who is active in too many groups may lose interest in both school work and home.

May 9 was a perfect day - visibility clear, temperature around 60 degrees and leaves still small giving a clear outline to all trees. > The song sparrow is very helpful because he frequently sits on a bare branch and sings but the thrushes insist on being secretive. The \varblers were everywhere - chestnut-sided, nashville, blackburnian. black- throated blue. black-throated green, magnolia.~ Cape May, palm and yellow. A golden- winged created great excite- ment. One observer identified him and because it was a ‘first‘ for this area it was necessary to relocate him to get positive identification‘ by more than one person. He was most elusive which added greatly to the suspense.

Birds were busily feeding in between bursts of song. The most spectacular were the rose- breasted grosbeaks with their robin-like but sweeter and more liquid songs and the Baltimore orioles with their mellow whistles. Both species were feeding low in the shubbery and that gave the group several opportunities to admire their brilliant plumages. The ground feeders, oven- blrds, sparrows and thrushes, as usual. made the observers feel very frustrated. Their perfect camouflage markings blend in with the grasses and twigs and only occasionally can one get a full glimpse.

Some enthusiasts were keen enough to venture out to see what the night’s migration might have brought in. The previous day’s hordes had definitely gone on their way without anything much coming in. Everything, including the people, was slightly dampish and visibility ‘was very poor. The least fly- catchers were flitting here and there amongst the low shrub- bery and seemed to be the only feathered beings who were enjoying the inclement weather‘ The club is having two field trips -one on May 18. at the Mill St. pond area at 7.30 am. and the second on May 19, to Holland Marsh, meeting at the town hall. Wright and Yonge Streets, at 1.30 pm. The last indoor meeting will be on May 24 and the speaker will be our President John Lunn. His subject will be "Birds." Saturday the club was sup- posed to have an organized field trip but only five braved the 32 degree temperature. The bird call. heard from the vicinity of the golf course, which had been puzzling many for the past few days was clarified by Russell Tilt as a western meadowlark. It is to be hoped the golfers enjoy its mellow, ilutelike bubbling notes as much as the naturalists. A long-billed marsh wren sur- prised the group by popping out from a heap of scraggy twigs to scold us emphatically. Many of the tree-top insect feeders were on the ground feeding which is always a thrill Sunday evening was sllghtly warmer but the warblers were still feeding on the ground. A ploughed field at the Humber was alive with gaily coloured birds. The blackburnians, yel- lows and palms were the most numerous. Even the several orioles didn't overâ€"shadow the smaller species. About fifteen rose-breasted grosbeaks, feedâ€" ing in a nearby tall elm tree, added their share of colour. A hermit thrush sang its beauti- ful bugle notes from the woods beyond. All in all a perfect ending to a spring evening. - warbler, myrtle, canada, magnolia, redstart and yellow. Catbirds were numerous. Two common terns and a solitary sandpiper were two of this vicinity’s migratory birds listed. L. Boyd. Maple; Mrs. J. Den Beld. Nobleton and J.

Members of the board noted that the fire- works display would be under competent supervision and were of the opinion that super- vised displays were mote in ac- cord with the rules of safety than individual attempts to cel- ebrate the holiday. Adverse Weather Cuts Entries In Daffodil Show The display will be a com- munity effort with residents of the area being asked to contri- bute to the purchase of fire- works for the night’s entertain- ment‘ Adverse weather conditions caused the annual daffodil show of the Richmond Hill Horticul- tural Society held last Thurs- day in the Lions Hall to be one .of the smallest on record. Gerry Longworth, Mrs. George Barker and Billy Redelmeier were the winners. Mr. and Mrs. P. Bone were judges of the show which was convened by Mrs. H. H. MacKay.

A plant sale will also be held at this show. Mrs. MacKay then introduced Commissioner George Bell, of Toronto’s department of parks and recreation. Mr. Bell spoke on civic landscaping and park planning. Mr. Bell reminded his audience of the inroads of the Dutch elm disease and said that in Toronto a number of other varieties of trees such as London plane tree, flowers ing crab and laburnum are being planted instead of elms. The speaker went on to tell of his efforts and results in obtaining pieces of land here and there to use for green spots and suggested that Richmond Hill could use a few such spots, particularly along Yonge Street. He also told of the ways in which Toronto is expanding and has explained its recreational facilities. Mr. G. Caldwell conveyed the thanks of the society to Mr. Bell.
