Disabled American Veterans
and auxiliary will hold a busi
ness meeting Tuesday, April 23,

North Riverside avenue. Nomi
nations will be held.
Butte Falls Club
Has Flower Show;
Program on Park
Butte Falls A flower show
was held in conjunction with
the last meeting of Butte Falls
Garden club. Each member con
tributed one or more arrange
ments. A variety of wild flow
ers as well as seasonal yard
flowers were displayed.
The wild flowers appearing
in arrangements were the na
tive orchid, bird bills, lamb
tongues, yellow violets, man
zanita; red bells and Oregon
Grape.
Some of the other flowers
shown were tulips, daffodils,
primroses, lilacs and camellias.
Mrs. Elga Abbott, who brought
an arrangement of red and pur-1
pie anemones, explained that the
scientists and Bible students
agree that these flowers of royal
colors are the ones spoken of
in the Bible as the "lilies of the
field".
Mrs. H. J. Arnold gave a short
talk on the Everglades park,
emphasizing that interested loyal
Americans must continue to
"battle" for the preservation of
this unique priceless wilderness
area .for future generations to
enjoy. This subtropical Ever
glades is unlike anything in any
of the other national parks. In
stead of being junglelike as most
visitors expect, the Everglades
is a great flat grassland, for the
most part, that scarcely rises
more than two feet above sea
level. It is unbroken except' for
occasional "hummocks" or is
lands. The park's chief attraction is
the large wading birds the ibis,
herons, egrets, and spoonbills
which inhabit the water areas
and nest along the seashore; also
the alligators which are found
in the sloughs in the grass. With
out the alligators thrashing
about, the sloughs would become
filled with vegetation and dirt;
the fish and crustaceans would
disappear; the birds would move
on and there would be no more
Everglades. Thus is emphasized
the importance of preserving the
wildlife habitat and allowing na
ture to retain its "balance .
The May meeting will be held
at the home of Mrs. Lee Shep
pard. Refreshments were served by
the hostess, Mrs. John Fuiten.

Yurok Women
Now Recovered
A year ago today, two elderly
Yurok Indian women were mov
ed from Rogue Valley hospital
to a hospital in Eureka, Calif.
They had attracted interest of
local residents during their long
hospitalization here following
automobile accident near Grants
Pass.
Last week the two women,
Mrs. Nellie Griffin, 83, and her
sister, Mrs.' Rose McDonald, 85,
wrote friends here that both
have now recovered from their
serious injuries and are back at
their Klamath, Calif., home.
They were hospitalized for
many months, first here, then
in Eureka, and later on the
Hoopa Indian reservations. Both
had received many broken bones
and other injuries which requir
ed repeated surgery.
' The two women were subjects
of illustrated newspaper stories
following the accident. The ar
ticles were inspired because of
their ages, the fact that their
faces were tatooed in a fashion
peculiar in their tribe and be
cause both are members of a
church denomination little
known in this area, the Shaker.
Among local residents who
aided them was Mrs. Dale Flow
ers, who later visited them on
the reservation.
