u H. Skinner, nurseryman. has an
unusual tree on his lawn in Shorey.
1t is called the Towering apple and is
grown for ornament, alth it bears
pies. 1t is claimed that a tart jelly
may be made from the fruit, but as
the apples taste much like green per-
simmons, they are not considered in
the edible class. The tree grows to
the size of the ordinary apple tree
and the blossoms are especially beau
tiful. The flowers are in groups or
three, of a purplish red color, and are
larger than the, ordinary apple bios
som. When ripe the seeds of the ap-
pies are a bright RED.

Some OF us old bearded old wrecks
have almost forgotten there ever ex
listed such glorious times as those

prove as welcome as a Whit of cool

been waiting for good. clean film
to which you might safely escort your
offspring, you may trot them down
to the City Hall Plaza with your soul
in peace.
Barry is a decidedly precocious
youngster who gives still further evil
dence of his undoubted justification
in being trusted with the projection
OF leading roles. He succeeds in rea-
lizing with remarkable assurance the
varying moods that play over his part.
There is broad streak of humorous
