CITY GARDEN CLUB

Conservation of resources helps
every community. Every vacant lot
allowed to go unused is waste. Every
vacant lot which raises food adds to
the city's prosperity.
All who have vacant lots will help
their city by letting them be culti-
waited by people who want to use
them.
Send up the description of lots. We
can use them. We will try to have
them produce assets. You lose moth

Live a little, love a little, laugh at
fancied pain;
Close your eyes and dream of flowers

Ease the load of burdened shoulders.
