Fl OVERS A PATRI0TIC FOR q OOM

TN a clever advertisement, written
for a lower-seed concern, our at
= tention is drawn to the fact that
we ought not 20 neglect the culture
OF flowers Just because we have gone
IN for vegetable growing As this ad-
vertisement points out, because OF the
war great suffering and sorrow have
come. into the world" and I'VE must
now do all we can to gladden. the
hearts OF the sick Never was there
such a need In the world for the deli
cate beauty which is produced only
IN the flower garden"
The logic OF this appeal cannot help
but convince anyone who has the sim
pie requirements for cultivating a
flower garden. A few square feet OF

artificially drained--sunshine and a
few minutes every day, or every few
days. 10 devote 10 the hobby. are all
that one needs. Besides. Of course. a
love for flowers, which. like the love
for children. is the common heritage
OF almost all.
Last year. you know. many people
neglected their flower gardens because
OF the new enthusiasm they felt for
vegetable gardens, and Il was really
with sorrow that we beheld garden
patches that had heretofore always
blazed with nasturtiums, snap drag
ons. astors, phlox and hollyhooks
showing row upon row OF cabbages or
carrots. And when tho cultivators OF
these vegetables found. as sometimes
happened that their crops were too
abundant for their own family use,
and as everyone else in the neighbor-
hood had likewise sowed their flower
patches to carrots and cahbases and
other useful vegetables, there was no
way OF making use OF them. there was
real regret that a small section OF the
garden patch had not been reserved
for the soul satisfying, though not
flowers.
This summer we are quite sure TO
have more abundant flowers in our
gardens, because we know from ex-
perience that the planting and culti-
waiting OF war vegetable gardens does
not stand in the way OF the planting
and cultivating OF war flower gardens.
Time has proved. you know, that in

In England by all means the smart

woven tweeds made by the disabled

organizations that have sprung up In
England for the purpose Of reinstating

I the gloomiest days Of war fashion
tends 10 dictate the use Of gay colors
in our clothes. There is nothing nip
pant in this tendency: It simply shows
a desire and willingness TO pack all
your troubles in your old kit bag and
smile, smile smilei" And the color
that garden flowers impart to our
houses and porches, or TO the gardens
where they grow, Is one OF the cheer
ing touches that we need, and that we
shall need more and more as the sum

any great extent. the inevitable result
viii be that we viii spend more time
in our gardens and on our porches
And this time will be more cheerfully
spent n we do not neglect our flowers
Although we have been urged TO be
reasonably thrifty and to make no use
less purchases, there Is very good rea-
son why. in this motorless summer, we
should invest IN such furnishings and
accessories as will make our porch
and garden a really liveable place.
Never before was garden furniture so
attractive-for we have only just be-
gun to learn the art OF giving our gar
dens a homeiike touch. All real gar
den furniture is weather proof. II
remains in place az least during the
summer. with the addition OF cush-
ions or straw mats the chairs are

the situation best do not see any vast
ed energy IN meeting this demand.
Women are working harder than ever
before, and they are drawing better
wages Something like eighty per cent
OF all the work that goes into ammuni-
ton IN England is now done by women
women who in working hours have 20
wear overalls and severely plain
clothes, II not actual uniforms. And
these women are feeling the need OF
better and more attractive best
clothes" Il Is their natural form OF
diversion TO do this.
For the most part the women who
talk most about the desirability OF en-
allthe time uniform adopted simply
as a war measure are the women OF
wealth and leisure TO whom such a
measure would afford considerable
novelty and diversion. II Ia no treat
for them as IL is for the ammunition
workers, TO have enough TO buy fnery
They have more time to indulge their
feeling Of depression over the war.
They may find a certain harmony in
mood IN wearing somber colors, but
the woman making shrapnel or pIow-
ing fields knows that indulgfnE in
gloomy moods only UNITS her for her
work, and that IN fact one cannot be
actually gloomy when one is very busy
and very useful all the time.
