PLANT ELOWERS
AKE Lents a beautiful place
by planting more Howers.
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.
