A Weston man has been charged with failing rto re- main at the scene of an acci- dent. following the death of a man on Kipling Avenue in Woodbridge last Week. Alan William Watts, 45, of 5817 Highway 7. was struck by a car while walk- ing norm on the east side of Kipling Avenue, south of Highway 7. about 10 pm on November 25. York Regional Police said that a northbound car hit Mr. Watts and sent him’fly- ing into a ditch. The car then kept on going. The first problem. how- ever, was where to buy seeds. Other people couldn't have read the book, for there was no demand; hence no seeds. But I did find midget carrots, parsley. turnips and com. I added Ibeets because, after all. you can pull them up when they are still small and extra good eatingâ€"and cher- ry tomatoes which are midget in any case. There were two. long, empty window boxes A short time later. Mr. Watt's wife, who was being driven home by a friend. saw her husband’s body in the ditch. I borrowed it from the library ,and it really was so intriguing you just had to try some of the suggestions. Midget vegetables which you could grow at any time, sounded almost too good to be true. Think, fresh veg- etables 1n the midst of wlnter snows and costing next to nothing.

CORRESPONDENT: MRS. CHAS. MILSTED Telephone 887-5445 Obituary GORMLEY NEWS In July, 1966, Heather was brought to Sick Children's Hospital, Toronto, when her condition had flared in a much more serious stage of kidney trouble. Artificial di- alysis was started until Nov- ember when she became the first patient on the kidney machine at Wellesley Hospiâ€" tal. And now there is another problem looming. What about the conservation of heat and energy? Will I have to move my garden into the bedroom, or rig up a hammock across one corner of the heated greenhouse? 15 she lived a fairly normal life attending school, taking music and endoying sports. During the past seven and a half years she has fought a very brave fight for life and was always very cheerful, although she had much major surgery and many months in hospital. In spite of her many handi- caps she completed her high school education at the David and Mary Thompson Second- ary School in Scarboro. She then attended the University of Toronto, even living in residence. Just prior to the funeral service Wednesday afternoon in the Victoria College Chap- el at the University. the bur- sar informed her father that Heather had been awarded her Honors Degree in sociol- A memorial service was held in Blind River United Church on Sunday when a overflowing crowd paid a silent tribute to Heaflmn‘s courageous life, her parents and family. Rev. J. Breckenridge. the United Church Chaplain at Wellesley Hospital, conduct- ed the service and spoke so fittingly of Heather's life at the hospital and the univers- ity. He especially cited her great courage and determin- ation and how she inspired those whom she contacted daily. Left to mourn Heather’s passing are her parents, two «brothers, Scott and Tim and three sisters, Jan, who is attending the University of Waterloo, Jill and Allison. Interment was in her grandparents‘ plot at Blind River. As for the cornâ€"I cannot believe my solitary sprout will provide much in the way of nourishment. Besides, isn‘t there something about corn requiring cross pollination? I'm sure I read that some- where â€" but it could be an- other plant altogether. Per- haps I should be grateful there is only one piece of corn. With more. we might have to move out of the house. - BEETS AND PARSLEY The beets and parsley are doing nicely. Of course nei- ther will be of any use for two or three months. In the meantime I shall use the parsley for a table centre. It is almost as attractive as a Boston fern. The next step is insecticide treatment. as I can plainly see. “The Liberal” requires a Correspondent for the Gormley area.
