Owing to illness in the family, I
had no club notes last week, so will
try to make up for it this time. Tues­
day night was our regular meeting
night and we were delighted to have
Mrs- Sloan with us again, after sev­
eral months* absence from an injury
to herroot.
Mrs. Kern has had two more mem-
iters added to her program commit­
tee;—Mrs. Sloan and Joy Pettengill.
Mrs. Kern won the cup with a
mixed bouquet Tuesday evening. Mrs.
Strang also had a lovely basket ffif
flowers.

they brought a dainty J bouquet of
wild flowers. I wish more children
were encouraged to take pert in the
club work.
Mrs. Sloan read an interesting arti­
cle from the last “Country Gentle­
man,” and Mrs. Kern sketched the
garden page in last Sunday’s Oregon-
ion."
Our cup contest for May 2 is mixed
bouquets in any kind of container. Be
sure to come.
I took a walk about town recently
and was astonished at the work that
is being done in the gardens. Every­
body seems to have the garden fever
this year.
Vegetable gardens are
much in evidence and one of the pret­
tiest spots in town is the piece of
bottom land lying between the Marsh­
field highway and the Henry street
bridge. The bottom lying west of the
highway is also being put in shape
again this year for vegetables.
Mr. Maiden is surely going to have
a fine lawn.
He is preparing his
ground in a very thorough manner,
he has it spaded, part of it leveled
and intends to cultivate it all summer
to get out as many of the weeds as
possible.
Mrs. Kendall, on the old Norton
place, is surely making a big change
in that place. Mrs. Kendall and the
girls are lovers of flowers and work
outside by the hour, whenever they
have time.

fered severely also.
This beautiful
shrub has always been so hardy here,
buf it will not stand a winter like
the past one.
Mr. Barton's peonies and phlox give
promise of great beautiy this year.
Mr. Grimes had some very fine daf­
fodils and narcissi out when I was
there and his tulip beds must, be
beautiful by now. A planting of con­
ifers and dwarf heather on the front
comers of his home is one of the most
attractive plantings that I have ever
seen. If I had a home of* my own I
surely would copy it.
Another at­
tractive feature at Mr. Grimes’ place
was.a row of golden yellow Doroni-

Mr. Houck has certainly made some
great changes in the places in which
he lives; it bras in a sorry state when
he moved there but new beds and
yard free from rubbish is a .big im­
provement.
The Belieu, Strang and Estes homes
are also in fine shape. The Gendlin
home is certainly beautiful; I don’t
think there is a time of fhe year
when it is not. Mr. Zumwalt’s rock
garden withstood the freese in greet
shape.
Mr. and Mrs. Walter Siokels have
moved back to their old home on Sec­
ond street and she is preparing to
make a very attractive place of it.
One of the finest specimen» of
Forsythia I have seen here is at the
Webb home.
The grounds around the Washing­
ton school building are certainly in
fine shape. This is due to the efforts
of the Woman’s Club.
James I.«ird had some of the finest
parrot tulips In bloom I have ever
seen. Also a bed of beautiful early
ones in full bloom. Since I saw them
some one went after dark and with
a trowel dug up the finest ones he had.
This cannot be blamed onto children
■nor high school students, but is the
work of adults who left clues in the
soft dirt of the beds. Needless to say
Mr. and Mrs. Laird do not intend to
share their beautiful flowers with the
public in the future. They are much
discouraged and I don’t wonder, for
every year they suffer these depreda-
