Green Not Only Hue
For Garden Benches

Many years ago someone started
TO apply green paint TO garden fur
niture. window boxes, trellises.
garden walls, flower pots. ETC., and
since then green paint IN IN variety
OF shades has been used Indiscrim-
inately. II can be one Of the worst
cclors for use as a background for
shrubs, flowers or vines.
There is such u variety of the
natural shades OF green. There are
pale yellow-greens and deep black
green's. These lose their value and
usually clash with the green paint.
Even highly-colored flowers seldom
show off properly against this
background.
White. or u very hight tint ON
some color. makes the best back
ground for planting. "A proper study
OF the relationship between the
garden furniture and the type or
planting should he made and the

The total for the country, how

ahead Of the 1884 period.
Gratest gain Of the week waS
credited to motors, with Ford back

output reported by Grams was
1886 units compared with 48.067
for the previous week and 53,854 for
the 1894 week.
That favorable showing was sup
ported by stell production which
mounted to 48.1 percent Of capacity
from 46 per cent in the previous
week. the sixth consecutive rise.
A factor in that movement was
the demand from motor makers for

HANKOW, China, January 2S.-
Refusing to bulge from her post IN
the face Of grave danger, an American
woman Is carrying ON alone her work
as matron of a mission orphanage
In an isolated village In Human Prov
ince while government and Commu-
nistic armies battle for supremacy in

The plucky missionary woman Is
Miss Rachel Howard Craig of Congress
Heights, Washington, D. c., who has
dedicated her life to her young Chi
ueSe charges and says that under no
circumstances will she desert them.
She Is the only foreign woman at
Yuanchow, a primitive town in the
wild country of Western Human Prov
lnce, about 200 miles west Of Chang
sha, the provincial capital. The vii
lage is remote from railways, airways.
automobile roads and is many days
travel by junk from the nearest port
Of foreign trade.
Priests Pass Occasionally.
Miss Craig never sees any one of
her own race except three American
priests of the Roman Catholic Church,
who sometimes pass in their sedan
chairs, in the narrow streets of the
ancient city. Her creed and theirs,
though both Christian, do not mix, so
they do not pause to talk. The only
language she has occasion to use is
Chinese.
Anxiety has been felt for Miss Craig
by her friends here and in other parts
of China because of the activities of
the red armies in that area. So far,
YuanchoW has escaped attack, but
the vagaries of the Communist bands
cannot be foretold. One band of
Communists has swept across South
ern Human, approaching from the
east. Another, under the notorious
Ho Lung, has pressed in from the
northwest. Ho Lungs birthplace,
San Shih, is in this region, and it is
feared that Nostalgia may draw him
to establish headquarters there. The
Yuanchow garrison is of uncertain
quality, for many of its members are
related to Ho or his men.
To Protect Children.
Miss Craig, however, faces these
uncertainties calmly, and instead of
fleeing to place Of security takes
what measures she can to insure the
safety of the youngsters under her
supervision.
Miss Craig made visit to her
home In Washington in 1880, after
q stay Of eight years in China. But
She says that she will never again
return to America. Although Yuan
chow is only collection of mud huts,
she says it is henceforth home to her.
