WINTER AND SUMMER SHRUB
Evergreen 10 Recommended a. the
Best Of AII-contrasts That May
Be Made Pleasing

Taking the United States as a whole
the average time that deciduous plants
are without foliage is at least i've
months. During this period the home
Is occupied as continuously as in sum-
mer, and the surroundings should bs
as attractive as possible, say land
scape gardeners Of the United States
Department Of Agriculture. Ever
green shrubs, both coniferous and
broad leaved. maintain color
throughout the winter not otherwise
obtained. Used In moderation they
are 4 distinct addition at this season.
On the other hand. many deciduous
shrubs have attractive winter char
acters, the most striking being thoss
bearing brght-colored berries. Then
there are barks Of many shades Of
brown and gray. with some OF bright
red, green. and yellow. that II prop
erly arranged make pleasing contrasts
and add to the winter beauty.
The short blooming period Of tho
average shrub makes flowers the least
important Of the characters to be con-
sidered. In spite Of this the color.
character, and time Of blooming
should be considered rs well as tho
behavior Of the dying flowers. whether
or not they fade to a conspicuous and
undesirable color and hang on unduly
or pass away without q distinctly I'M

! FIFTY years ago few stores delivered

doubtless would have told anyone who

as the number of stores Increased and
competition grew keener. some Of the
merchants, to attract customers to
their stores. offered to deliver pur-
rhases.
This innovation proved very popular
with the public. and soon other stores
were forced to adopt the custom. At
the start the idea was to deliver arti-
cies which could not be carried con-
Senlently by the customers. But as

UP FOR HOME TOWN
P-aIiy Good Citizen 10 the One Whe
Has Its Interests Close to
Hls Heart

There is something the matter with
the man who doesn't care for the
place he lives in; who doesn't come
back to 1t with some degree Of rap
ture and relief. The world citizen,
who boasts that all places are alike
to him and any place is home where
he hangs his hat, misses out Of his
life one Of the first and strongest In
centives to decency and duty-which
is the desire to win the general esteem
and good opinion Of the community
in which one dwells. There is no re-
ward In money which compares In val
ue with the golden treasure of good
repute. If man cheats and lies and
steals and bears false witness, he may
build up great fortune and still be
plagued at night with the knowledge
ion Of his worth and works. Doctor
Eliot Of Harvard has told us that 1t
Is the favorable opinion Of mans
home town that is worth earning and
retaining. One Of the neighbars
might be wrong; but If we take the
summation of what many are saying,
we probably shall arrive at just es-
innate.
Merely to live In a place doesn't
make one a citizen. Your heart will
be where your work has been put in
to help forward any good thing that
is going. OF course one must be true
to the immediate family circle and
look we'll to the rooftree and the door
yard of ones own household first Of
all. But that intimate indoor devo-
ton, commendable as it is, may be-
come a selfish sentiment that takes
no thought for those measures of pub
lie welfare In whose benefits we all

The popularity Of these nonservice
stores Is due in part to the campaign
which has been carried on by many
agencies to educate the people to the
fact that those who are willing to
carry home their purchases can save
money. One Of the forces at work
to cut down the cost of marketing, SO
the producer can obtain better re-
turns and the consumer pay less than
he does for his commodities is the
bureau of markets Of the United
States Department. - Asrte1assP>

signs Of the age that people are break
