There should be borders of flowers around every residence block in the city. Y’ou can drive over the city and see many places that art' starv­ ing for flowers and a bit of color. With so much of the evergreen in our landscape, so many gray days and cloudy weather, give us color. The bit of color brightens life. cheers the landscape and blesses everybody who has eyes to see. Monotonous streches of green lawns, large, poorly kept i trees badly in need of trimming : are too common. Plant a border of bulbs, put out some flowering shrubs and plants in your parking, doit now. It will cost a little money but not half as much as you spend for cigars, your lodge or your church. What you spend on beautifying your public grounds or private grounds benefits the whole com­ munity. Most of us do nothing but from the standpointjof’selfish jiersonal benefit.

The delays incident to travel are all against the people who live on this side of the river. Why not divide these inconveniences up. Why should all the good things go to those who are already surfited with blessings so crowded they do not know where to place ano­ ther, and are now waiting for some one to die or burn out to find room to place new additions. Like some cemeteries we have heard of. Why not deal fair, put the new addition where it will balance conditions, where it will now be of most convenience to the most people, and where as time draws apace there will be still better reason for its hav­ ing been so located.
