FLOWER SEEDS
 HIS FAREWELL
Ralph Cameron Would Make Arizona Resem- bIe the Garden
 of Mary
SENDS FORGETMENOTS

The fact that Delegate Ralph Cam eron has sent thousands of packages of "Forget-Me-Not" seed to his Ari- zona constituents has caused the poli- ticians to wonder if the builder Of the long and narrow path called Angel Trail has ambitions or calculations lor coming back on the ides of d uahtical March Unless senators smith and Ashurst and Congressman Hayden put trailing Aurtutus' on the track ol the gef-5Ie-Not seed and shadow them with poppy plants. million 'F0rget-Ale-NOts' win ba reminding the voters of Ari- 1-l as sUEgcstiVeIy as the ghost of the murdered king 1i Denmark Re member me"
 The delegate sent more than For -erAe-Not-. however and it may be that the combination express some -ue more for che del6-aJe than merely to be remembered. Hand him Q bunch" may mean either threat or a promise The language of the flowers" is more than an imag. iuinz or the politicians il is a ian- pUaeC at least as real a Esperanto. The poet sings
 The message that flowers tell,
 What words could never speak so
 well"
 The FOTget-Me-NOts may have message for the people of Arizona that IS not contained in the speeches of the delegate from Arizona. Other seed that have been sent by Arizonas delegate are: eschscholtzia, kochia, morning glory. sweet peas. zinnia, calenduIa, candy tuft, Chinese pink. mignionette and poppy.
 Have Meanings of Own
 Some of these flower meanings are given in the Review Dictionary" as follows:
 Cany tuft-indifference.
 Mignionette-You qualities sur pass your charms.
 Sweet pea-Depart.
 Poppy-Angust.
 Morning glory-September
 The eschscholtzia, kochia. cales- dula and Zinnia are probably used only in code language. as the diction- ary gives no meaning for these flowers. For instance, "schscholt- zia" may mean Watch me swipe him on the bean." and the other too. may be signs of the double cross.
 The bunch" that the delegate has sent out appears to be somewhat con tradictory, and it may be capable of several sentiments. It may express something like this: Owing 10 your indifference, 1 must depart from Washington and it's precious per r#f fn. me-in fact, your qualities surpass your charms, and I will be around some time between August and Sep tember to see how the flowers are coming along Don't forget the pess word, Eschscholtzia,
 Arizona, quite contrary
 How does your garden STOW?

 glory,
 And forget-me-not, dear bo.
