On Flower Gardening
From Mrs. Rawlins
Interest in home flower gard
ening grew among members of
the Ileppner Mother's club Mon
day evening with the interesting
presentation of a "Garden Clinic"
by Mrs. William Rawlins, mem
ber of the lone Garden club and
4-H flower club advisor. Discus
sion centered particularly on va
rieties of flowers, shrubs and
plants which she has found will
do well in yards in this climate
and soil.
The meeting was held in the
home of Mrs. Melvin Dixon, with
Mrs. Ray Williamson as assist
ing hostess.
The program followed a short
business meeting, opened with
members answering roll call by
naming their favorite flower.
Mrs. Bob Henry was invited to
be a member of the club, and
guests, Hrs. Loren Lucore and
Mrs. Bernard Damon, were intro
duced. Mrs. Rawlins referred to the
selecting and organization of
flowers bordering the yard in
a way as to present a pleasing
"outdoor picture" continuously
through the summer months.
"Iris do especially well here,"
she said, and should be encour
aged. Daffodils, primroses, pe
tunias, zinnias, phlox, most flow
ering shrubs, delphinium, glad
ioli nn H mnnv varieties of dah-
lins were recommended for
planting here. She encouraged
gardening as a "family hobby,''
with many members partici
pating and enjoying its beauty.
Dahlia bulbs from her husband's
special collection' were offered
as momontos to those attending.
The following new officers
were installed: Mrs. Harold
Laird, president; Mrs. Herman
Winter, vice president; Mrs. Dix
on, secretary-treasurer, and Mrs.
Williamson, program chairman.

dent, extended appreciation to
