Lucky us, or we . . .
as case may be
Thank you I . . . Gradas! . . ,
Merd, beaucoup!
In every way that we can
say "We're grateful," we'd like
to say exactly that to many,
many persons in many, many
places.
And here's why: Recently
Governor Warren of California
acting pretty much as a stand
in for Uncle Sam himself pre
sented th'! third honor plaque
to be awarded us by the offi
cially sponsored Victory Garden
Institute.
The war may be over, but
Uncle Sam hasn't forgotten the
time when, in some ways, vege
tables were as important as
bombs. He hasn't forgotten
those who helped produce them.
Naturally we're pleased. But
where would we have been if
many another concern hadn't
been in there pitching, too ? And
many a family including the
children? i
Without the schools teach
ers and children alike we'd
never have come near this hon
or. Some became real members
of the Order of the Green
Thumb. Still smaller fry, too
tiny to garden, were none the
less mates with us on Uncle
Sam's Western Victory Garden
team. They carried home the
message that enlisted parents.
So to all the men and wom
en who with spade and hoe
and back-muscles and elbow
grease turned yards and vacant
lots into home-grown arsenals,
congratulations ! We tip our hat
to you !

chair In which Simmers was sit
ting. Simmers and Todd en
gaged in a friendly tussle when
Simmers removed Todd's black
jack after pinning his arms to
his sides. When Simmers
stepped back, Todd removed his
pistol from its holster and a shot
rang out. Simmers fell into
Todd's arms and was dead when
an ambulance arrived. There
had been no ill feelings between
tne men, Humble said he learned.
The shooting was witnessed bv
