One resident of Monmouth, Mrs. Rosalie Andrus realized i about five years ago j that she greatly needed a diversion in her life. She has been a( dressmaker here for 20 years, and her work kept her so much indoors, that when she did attempt to; work j in the garden, the sup's heat was too intense for comfort.'; She' decided to start a rock garden and be out of doors enough to acclimate her self to sun and wind!. . i A short time later she received a letter from an unknown- woman in Glen wood, Iowa, inviting her to join a Round! Robin Cactus and Hobby club, having a national membership. This; woman had obtained Mrs. Andrus' name through the latters sister, Mrs. Earl Cobum of j Day ton, who, with her husband operates a bulb farm, and had sent bulbs to the Iowa woman. j f Mrs. Andrus joined the club, and soon began receiving the club members letters, hich are writ ten and sent in round robin fash ion, from member to ' member.

Through the dab Mrs. Andres has received j cacti plants from -Texas, Iowa, Minnesota, Vir ginia and Kansas. Each mem ber has her own personal hob by, and Mrs. Andrus collects miniature china baskets. Many fat her large collection have come to her j as gifts from her club members.
