North Thornhill Area Spokesman Donald Reid. of Deputy-reeve S. J. Gadsby said a problem could arise if the lands were required by the municipality at a later date.

Mr. Sumner favored a color- ful perennial border and sug- gested the selection of plants for all seasons. Thought should be given perennial asters and even the horticultural varieties of golden rod which are late bloomers. Joe Wain gave hints on plant- ing tulip bulbs and spoke about the new disease resistant strains of petunia and Zinnia plants. He warned members to be- ware of rackets in the gardening business and told them that purchases should be made at reliable dealers. Alan Sumner refuted Mr. Poulter’s statement about for- sythia being poor bloomers in this location.
