Elves heard some very strange sounds
they did not quite talk like the Flow
ers-for to the Elves and Fairies, you
know, there is a Flower language, and
a Flowers way of talking.
!" What could these other sounds
mean?' they asked each other.
Gwen tell you,' said these voices.
We're the Weeds. And some of us
are beautiful, but all of us are strong.
Yes, we're SO strong that no matter
how they try to dig us up and throw
us away we're up again in no time.
We're little fighters we are. We
have our Army headquarters. Indeed
we do! And our Generals are very
fine. They're the great, tall Weeds
you often see and my, but it's hard to
get them out of the earth. If they are
beaten more Generals take their places
for the motto of the Weeds is, "We'l
always be strong there will always be
Weeds
"And so they chatted on. The Elves
were very much interested, but still
they couldn't quite see when the Weeds
were doing so much talking and bragg
ging how the Flowers could seem so
happy.
80 they whispered to the Flowers
very gently:
""Tell US, Flowers, why are you so
happy?
'Then IN lovely, soft rustling voices
they said:
eve are going to have Book writ
Ten about us today. Yes, a real Book,
and our pictures are going to be paint
ed. We're very proud and happy. We
have a Mistress who comes out every
morning and most of the day she is
with US. She bends over us and digs
up the earth around us so it is nice
and soft and comfortable. And every
evening after Mr.. Sun has gone to bed
she gives us cool drinks of water.
6 Tt was only yesterday she told us
that some Noble Grownup was going
to write a Book about us and call it
1.-THE Ideal Garden We think that
ideal means something like perfect
GtA4J w cAJ IL SOAACI111AS CAIlOu4C1y 1ICCs
And so she has been making us ready
for the Book. Oh, we're very proud
indeed
"'But what about the Weeds?' asked
the Elves.
"'Well, the Flowers continued, our
Mistress says she sometimes can't help
thinking many of the Weeds are pretty.
And though sometimes they crowd US
out of our Homes, and are rather rude,
we feel sorry for them. It's hard to
always have to fight for a Home in
stead of being looked after as we are
we have our Homes fixed up for US
each day. But then, of course the
Book won't say anything about
Weeds!'
''The next day again came the Elves
to ask the Flowers about the Book.
Eyes they whispered, it will be a
beautiful Book. The Noble GroWnup
who is to write it talked to our Mis-
tress and told her she was going to
say a word for all Of US and put in
