both, find ideal spots for picnics and
for recreation.
One of the features of the park is
the flower garden, which at this sea
son of the year, in spite of the dry
weather, is blooming in colors gay as
Joseph's coat. The petunia bed is
one of the showiest, and bed of sal
via adds touch of scarlet to the pur-
pies and whites and browns OF the
other beds. The petunias are large
and extremely varied in colors.
A heIiotrope bed furnishes fragrance
that is inhaled for many rods distant
from the bed. There are big snowy
birds of paradise. and over in some
other beds are balsaam, with the seed
pods that snap and curl up when they
are touched.
The foliage plants are unusually
pretty with their yelvety leaves look
ing like bits of tapestry or BRUSSELS
carpet. The border plants in the
first bed this year are growing stur-
Oily and will bid cordial welcome
to the Odd Fellows convention here
in October. The bed is laid out SO
that there is the representation of the
three links of Odd Fellowship and the
words az O. o. F. Welcome" are
spelled in the foliage.
The park is always mecca for au-
tom ohila narfiaS eSDecially on Sun
days when many people drive in from
the country and bring their dinners.
Whether the weather is warm or cold
there is always a big crowd OF park
visitors on Sundays. and 1t has been
crowded every nice Sunday this sea
