welcomed for, if winter has n it always receded into the backgroun I, the re­ birth of Nature is generally apparent. This year, the season is unus tally wen advanced: fields and hedgerows: are vernal green; many varieties ol trees are in leaf; fruit trees are a mass o f bloom, together with the sloe and wild cherry; gardens are aglow with mult-coloured tulip, primulas, and other flowers. / The countiTslde Is a veritable falrj land, and there is little doubt but that It will be ovemih by visitors from all pa 'ts of ;East Lancashire in the next few deys. , May We add our appeal to that of the Antl- Lltter Association that aU wh > m l the joys of the country district:: will not despoil Its beauty by leaving saper and other remnants to be blown about as souvenirs of their visit? vFor those who like to combine a fairly feasy walk with tea in the country, attention [s directed to the annual
