Department Seismologist
Visits Relatives
Medford visitor last week
was Dr. Dean S. Carder, seis
mologist with the United
States Department of Com
merce, Bureau of coast and
Geodetic survey, who was
visiting his mother, Mrs. Cora
Carder, 607 West Eighth
street, here.
Dr. Carder, who lives in
Washington, D.C., recently re
turned from a trip to Austra
lia where he assisted seismol
ogists in that country deter
min sites for dams for a two
billion dollar hydro electric
water power development
project.
He served as consultant to
Australian seismologists in
determining locations of
earthquake activity and ad
vise on the types of construc
tion of dams that are near
earth faults.
The seismologist makes pre
cision surveys of land sound
ings of seaways for protec
tion of commerce. During the
year he tries to locate earth
quake centers throughout the
world as between 1300 and
14 0 0 quakes are registered
each year.
During the course of his
work, Drl Carder has mea
sured actual ground motion
during quakes throughout the
world. The information is
pooled with other contries, he
reported. The visitor, first
man to record the first atom
bomb explosion on a seismo
graph, has also recorded vi
brations from world nuclear
explosives through the earth.
Information gained from the
study of these sound waves
helps scientists determine the
composition of the earth's
center.
In addition to visiting Au
stralia recently, Dr. Carder

Uses of Climbers, Vines
Described by Gardener
By
EDNA KING MANDEVILLE
There are a number of rea
sons for planting climbers or
vines, as they may also be
called. Today I'd like to point
out some of them, and show
how a climber may be used
to advantage in almost any
garden.
Of course, the climber is
particularly useful when wind
or dust are to be excluded or
an unsightly view concealed.
A flowering climber may be
used to cover an unattractive
tree stump or bare slope, and
may actually create a spot of
beauty where once there ex
isted only an eyesore.
Climbers, however, should
not be considered mereiy for
use as a "cover-up," for their
beauty and growth habits can
add a great deal to the charm
of the garden, even though
there is no need to cover any
thing. Their foliage often
makes climbers especially
adaptable for use as back
ground, and garden flowers
are more effective when seen
against this type of setting.
Views out of a garden may
distract ' from the beauty of
the flowers themselves, and
such screening tends to con
centrate attention on the real
charm of your garden.
Focal Point
If the garden lacks a focal
point, here again the climber
may be your answer. One in
teresting arrangement for this
purpose is to place a climber
covered trellis behind a gar
den seat. Such an addition is
not only attractive but actual
ly invites use by its impres
sion of restfulness. Where
there is a path leading. to a
garage or tool house, there
may be an excellent reason
for using a vine-covered per
gola to soften the effects of
the building. The pergola,
however, should be used as a
passageway from one place
to another, thereby lending
meaning to its existence. At
a summer-home, the climber
may be used as an attractive
and practical means of pro
viding shade for porch or
patio.
'While I've given a few of
the best reasons for consider
ing climbers in your garden,
there are , many more, of
course. Perhaps the following
list of climbing varieties, to
gether with their suggested
uses, will give you further
ideas for improving your gar
den.
Kudzu Vina
Of the perennials, the
Kudzu vine is an excellent
choice where shade, screen
ine. or a windbreak is need
ed. This vine, belonging to
the pea family, grows qune
nnifklv to a height of some 30
feet. It has large three-part
leaves, somewhat lobed in
shape, which are perfect for
producing a dense foliage.
This characteristic, plus its
rapid growth habit, makes it
perfect for most shade and
screening uses. The Kudzu
rino is hardv. too. except in
a few northernmost parts of
the. Tinited States.
Another good climber is the-j
perennial sweet pea U-.a-thyrus),
which reaches a
height of about six feet and
is adaptable in some instances
for screening or dust elimina
tion. The flowers are showy
and quite often are grown for
beauty alone. They are red,
int and white, similar to
the annual sweet pea, though
they are not fragrant.
Hyacinth Bean
One of the most rapidly
growing of all annual climb
ers is the annual hyacinth
bean, which climbs to about
15 feet. Its bright green foli
! i most attractive, and the
HanHsnmP nurnle and white
flowers appear in large clus
ters from midseason until iaie
in the year. Another gooa
climber in the annual group
is the scarlet runner bean,
ornujinir tn about 10 feet and
producing a dense green foli
age, which is especially u
ifni as a backdroo for clus
ters of red flowers. The pods
from this vine are edible when
very young, as are the shell
beans which the pods produce.
Both of these annual vines
are useful for screening and
windbreak purposes.
For adding beauty to the
garden, there are the; annual
cypress vine and the cardinal
climber. Both are particularly
suited for use on trellis, fence
or wall. The cypress vine
climbs to about eight feet,
with a foliage that gives the
impression of fine moss cov
ered with tiny red and white
stars. The cardinal climber
reaches 20 feet auite raDidlv.
,and has beautiful fern-like
foliage covered with fiery-red
flowers that last from mid
summer till late in the sea
son, lending beauty and color
wherever used.
In my next article, I shall
consider other varieties hav
ing climbing characteristics.

Are You A Worry-er?
Almost everyone is wor
ried about something at some
time. Money, love, family,
job, calories, flying saucers
all of these rate anxiety in
greater or less degree..
Worry, anxiety, and fear
cannot be eliminated by a
simple "Forget it!" TMey re
spond only to an orderly ap
proach which considers both
cause and effect. i
Worries, generally SDeak-
ing, fall into two categories:
those based upon objective
fact and those which are
largely emotional in origin.
tach worrier must determine
which is his nemesis. He must
ask himself, "Is my trouble
outside of me, or inside of
me?"
Many fears can be dissipat
ed by a rational approach, fol
lowing a step-by-step - pro
cedure. Deep anxiety states,
of course, are usually bevond
self-help and respond only to
specuized treatment.
Supposing "you are a hab
itual worry-bird. What can
you do?
Here at The American Insti
tute of Family Relations in
Los Angeles, we suggest:
1. Admit what you are
afraid of. This in itself does
much to drain off its tension
and frees you to work upon
it, rather than burying it to
cause later difficulty.
2. Outline your worry. Just
wnat is the problem? Is it
real? What is the worst out-

come possible? How likely is
that outcome? How much of
the difficulty can you dis
count as imagination? Re
member that the "worst"
whatever that may be
rarely happens, except in
fancy.
3. Act Do something about
the probem. Often a difficulty
disappears when even a small
amount of action is brought to
bear upon it.
4. Seek help if you find the
problem beyond your powers.
5. Once a problem has
been worked through to the
best of your ability, close the
matter. Approach the future
with confidence and put the
past behind you.
These five simple steps may
not solve all your worry prob
lems but they can help!
