And in selecting azaleas and rho dodendrons, spring may be a little better. Tou wish certain, colors. Growers do not always know the colors , of : these unless they ' are In bloom. But antnmn planting applies to the greater number of things. , ". - -' rf-. Begin Color Now "X wish," said a Silverton wo man the other day, "I could get some of the autumn colors 'into my gardens. "And why can t. you I I want ed to know. Now s tha time to do something about it. Those ot you who live in the country or have- an extra large bit of ground about your home should plant a tree or two which has foliage that 1$ colorful in the autumn. Others should plant shrubs. There are many of the latter which turn crim son, scarlet and . yellow In fall which are an addition to any gar den. Also there are many of these which are lovely, both in spring and fall. Flowering dog wood answers both . for - spring and autumn' beauty. A few plants whose leaves give color at this time of the year may save your fan garden from being drab and uninteresting. To give best effect the colored foliage should be next to an evergreen. The shiny green leaves of an English- laurel sets off : well the brilliant red arrowwood (Viburr nam dentatum) or; the orange red Frangrand Sumac (Rhus ca nadensis). The gold of the au tumn birch Is more .effective against a - background ot .white pine. . Hints on Hues The scarlet and the white oaks produce brilliant foliage in au tumn. Other trees which give colorful -foliage include the Kat-sura-tree (Cercliphyllum Japon- lcum) red; Maple (acer sacchar- nm) gold; Maple- (Acer rubrum) scarlet; soufwood . (Oxdendrum arboreum) '" scarlet; - .sweetgum (Llquidambar styraclflua) scar let; Hornbeam (Carpinus caro liana) orange; ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba) yeuow. Shrubs which give color to the fall garden include many of the azaleas, the sumacs, many of the viburnums, the Burningbush (Ec bnumus europaeus) , and the witch-hazel. To requests for hedge material I might suggest the - Teucrium chamaedrys or as It is known to many, the germander. . .The Mis souri botanical garden bulletin recoramands it ' and has this to say about it, f Teucrium is not affected by any insects or diseas es; it retains its small, glossy green foliage untn January when a few days of zero temperature will cause - the leaves to shrivel and . gradually : drop off. .

What about the soil requirements? - . - . Answer; Hydrahgeas - do - best in a rather moist soil, or at least desire a great deal of water. A little shade. is also Important. A north or east exposure is most desirable.';' ' - " Question:- What is the .bean- tree and is it easily grown? . ; answer ; The Goldenchaia '- (La burnum), is sometimes called the bean tree. ' But it. is not an edi ble bean.' The fruits (nd all parts of the shrub are poison ous. But It makes a pretty 'spe cimen or used as a tall accent In shrub borders. It Is not' dif ficult, to grow bnt suffers dur ing . dry "weather , if -not given some water. It has the same fault the old-fashioned . snowball dees; it Is 'very subject to ' aph- ids. However, it is worth plant ing any way and can always be sprayer with Black-Leaf 40 for Insect control. : Question: We used to have hoke cherries hi Wisconsin and I always, liked the little trees. Would it be foolish to plant one in our garden here? I have plenty of room. Answer: Why. should it be fool ish? A garden is your own and you should plant in it things you enjoy. As a matter of fact. I am very convinced that plant ing a choke cherry- is not fool ish. . I have one growing in my garden which I started three years ago from a seed I brought from Wisconsin. It Is now about a. yard high and the leaves are lovely this autumn. Surprise Party Held . For V. Madsen Family At Brush Creek Home BRUSH CREEK. Oct. 26-Mr. and Mrs. Victor S.

Letters from Statesman Readers PASSION PLAY AXD " .- CHRISTIAN S -1 185 Ni High SC. Salem, Ore, ' October 24, 1JS5.- Editor, Morning Statesman's' Forum, Salem, Ore - ' Dear Editor: - I r beg to enter an Indictment against the Christians, of Salem. Salem, this' week haa been wit- nesslng what I ; believe to- be a " : moat sacrillgeous,4 yes; blasphem-' ous, - event. ETen : the "Passion ' Play.". How any one who lovea " , the Lord Jesus Christ'- can in dorse, or .ven sanction fey their presence, such an obnoxious thing is beyond me. ; K - vr ';- I would paase to say that 1 am not writing " this to in any -way criticise the Elks - lodge f or ' sponsoring the play.- j They are not a Christian organization ; so that when the ministers, and pro fessed; Christians over the conn- try indorse a thing, we would ' not condemn such an organlza- s tion for bringing It here. I fully believe their motive was good, and for a good cause. - But I do criticise any ministers, or other Christians that belong to that lodge, for not entering a pro test. - ' ' Many Christian have told me " how they - en j oyed ? ? this play, -and how that every Christian' should, endorse It; and have crit icised me for objecting to -.- it. -Bnt, I pray; let me draw a com parison. Suppose that-the scene -of your -birth. In which - your -sainted old mother went down into -the "valley of the shadow of death," during the travail that only goes with childbirth, to give you life; suppose I say, that that ' ' scene was dramatized and pre- -sented before the general public, for profit, and the entertainment of the thoughtless and nncon cerned multitude. 1(1 mean by r that thoughtless and- .'nncon-' cerned as touching the sacred ness ot the event, ) And not only, that, but suppose the woman that . played the part of your sainted mother, yon knew to be a de generate; debauched old prosti tute. Would you protest against ' . - it? ; - I believe this is a fair paral- , lei. I know nothing regarding the moral character of the man that takes" the part of the Lord, but be that ever so high, it is only as the above comparison,' along side our Lord's. And that v passion that our. holy spotless Saviour endured, even the agon- ies of an eternal hell, was that He might give you, fellow Chris tlans, and me, eternal life. This most sacred ' and hallowed event is being. paraded before the gen eral publie for profit to the un christian theatre owners and for . the entertainment of the general . pubUc. Think f it. Christian you -joining with the world to 7 derive entertainment and - pleas--, . ' ure from that sacred event! And worse, you joining with them to . hire unchristian men and women to enact their interpretation of t it for your enjoyment! What has become yt our.love for Him who died for us? We condemn the Jews of. His day for crucify ing Him, out of hatred: " how t much more should be be con demned for crucifying Him "for ..; pleasure asd profit. ; . - I know some will say," "But look at the good It-does. (if) ' Well, not the Apostle Paul said.' "Shall we do evil that good shall . come of it?. Iod forbid. .' Yours, : ' " N. J. Maestrettl.
