Have you ever noticed or did it
ever occur to YOU that three of the
churches Of this city had beautiful
and spacious grounds and handsome
buildings but almost absolutely no
attention or care was given to the
cultivation of the lawns. On one Of
these grounds there seems to be a
pretty good crop Of wild onions on
the way. The other two are usually
planted in barley or corn. They
could be made beautiful lawns with
very little expenditure Of muscle or
money. Why moi do it.
