Kansas is not especially noted for its
beautiful gardens and few people real
ize the joys of a back yard that is not
given up to onions and lettuce. but in
stead is made more beautiful than the
| lawn before the house. Shut off from
the street and the public view as it is.
this is a delightful place for entertain
| ing in the summer time. The picnic,
which Miss Jane Alexander gave last
night for Miss Helen Welty was real
garden party and it was one of the
most ideal entertainments of the
month. Quartet tables were set in
| the garden of the F. G. Willard home
in Topeka avenue where it was cool,
quiet and flyless. Yellow and blue
garden blossoms were used in the CEN
| tiers of the tables but the real decora-
now in their glory and the bed of lark
| spur growing by the arbor. The fresh
cut grass was soft and green and the
| high walls on either side the garden
were covered with vines while the
brilliant hollyhocks gave the necessary
delightful that the question rises, why
don't more people forego the onions
and plant hollyhocks instead?
