Is he your best beau?" Daphne would liked to have slapped her. Instead, she laughed. "Unfortunately I haven't attained that status yet" Tuck said quickly. "Y0ur sister has 8 legion of beaus eager to be best" "A legion of beaus? What fun. Then I can have him?" Jennifer looked at Daphne and indicated Tuck.
 Daphne, picking up her tea-tray, didn't answer.
 Run along, Tuck" she said in little while. "Jennifer has to do her own unpacking. Maggie is leaving and I'm tired"
 Come back about 10, Tuck" said Jennifer. When Tuck had gone, Jennifer said, What are you going to do tonight, Daph2 I hate for you to be here alone while I'm having fun."

 "Swelll" came back from the depths of the shower.
 The room was a wreck when Jen- infer finished dressing but Jennifer was dream in blue satin with a blue flower tucked in the shoulder length corn silk of her hair.

 Jennifer put down her powder puff and threw her arms around her sister. "Oh, darling, you've been so wonderful to me. I'm not going to be any trouble at all. I'm going to look for a job tomorrow"
 Daphne opened her mouth wide and closed it again. Then, "Oh, Jennifer, want you to specialize in some course. You couldn't live on whatever you'd get. Maybe only SIS week."

 Daphne was not impressed.

Jennifer's pocketbook spilled its contents over Daphne's dressing table, her opened powder box mak- ing Q wide and dusty ring.
 Daphne picked up a gold eve- brow pencil and experimented on her own brows which did not need 1t. Then she swept everything up neatly, removed the bags from the bed and stripped of her soiled zrcck.
 She selected another from her closet that contained mostly tail- ored suits, two or three simple evening gowns, sensible little boots and riding hats in various colors.
 When she was cool and fresh again she went back to the living room through the kitchen and called to Tuck, "Give me a hand with the tray"
 Tuck placed the big tray with its silver cargo on the coffee table beside Jennifer.

 She looked, Daphne thought, ex- autly 10 when she opened her eyes wide that way, except that 10- year-old would never have such Cleverly nascaraed lashes.
 "On occasions she answered, "kait this isn't one of them. I think you1l find the tea refreshing, the sandwiches and cake the best Mag lgie has to offer, which is excel- lent.p !

 Daphne, studying Jennifer, poured tea and tried to assort her einotions.
 She didn't know whether she was lpleased with Jennifer's boise or an- n0yed with her lack of consider ation. She didn't know whether she was glad that Jennifer was grow ing up or sorry that she was no longer 8 child, but she did know that she recognized beauty-greater than she had expected-ripening in Jennifer.

fer's chic. 1nstinctively she eyed JennifeT, recognizing the lines that accented her delicate curves, het slim waist, her long line from hip to toe; recognizing, moreover, Jen- nifer's ability for making the most of these.
 Daphne looked down at her own simple tailored frock and was a trife surprised to find that her own figure compared favorably with Jen- nifers. The knowledge did not tighten the feeling. however, that she was older suddenly. And very dull.
 What do you think of our clever Daphne getting herself promoted to an executive job?" Tuck asked Jen- infer.
 Daphne liked him rather more than usual for the way he put it.
 SometimeS-very few times Daphne permitted herself the slightest of romantic conjectures about Tuck Ainsley. She knew him for exactly what he was. But she was a girl and he was an attractive man who had long protested his de- votioh to her. Tuck, who'd been a crew man at college, who'd never done days work in all his 26 years, who followed the races and sporting events, who was 50 utterly unlike herself, was too attractive for any girl to pass up romanticaIly without bit of a struggle.
 She looked at his rangy figure sprawled with easy grace in her big chair and listened to his pleasant drawl. She was aware that Jenni- fer also was appreciating Tuck,s at- fractions. She didn't went Jenni- fer to appreciate them too thor oughly.
 Get a promotion, Daphne? Lots more money?" Jernifer asked.
 "Yes, I'll tell you about it later. Whats this party tonight? Will I approve?"
 Jennifer hugged her silken kneas and her lovely face melted into wheeling lines Daphne knew all too well. "Daffy"-Daphne hated being called that-"it's a very nice party that Pete Pompton's sister is giving for him at her apartment at the Consular. She's having a gang in for supper around II and asked me to bring someone. I can't go alone so your Tuck is taking me. Okay?"
 Daphne said she supposed it was. She might have said that since Tuck wouldn't be too old for the crowd, Jennifer might also have in- vited her. Instead She said:

GOOD GARDENING
Rose May
BY DONALD GRAY Waterbury Democrat Gardening
 C0nsultant)

The rose, delight of the gardener, rates consideration all by itself, since most gardens contain some types of this universal plant.
 If perfection of bloom is desired, certain rules must be followed. Here are the most important of them:
 Hybrid teas and hybrid per- petuals are the choicest roses. They will give blooms in all shades and color combinations.
 A rose garden should never be planned close to the house where it is in view all year. There are times when the covering over the tops of the plants Is net attractive, and even at the height of the blooming period there is always much earth in view. The best way to grow perfect blooms is to have a space set aside for this plant. Treat rose bed as a sepa- rate unit in gardening.
 Choose a site that is in partial shade in the middle of the day. Roses require full sunlight in the morning, but do not do well under continuous sun exposure.
 
 Prepare the ground by mixing one-third well routed manure, one-third good garden soil and one-third clay loam. Excavate two feet deep. Roses do not like wet feet, so place cinders, slag or agricultural tile in the bottom of the bed to take off excess water.
 Place hybrid teas in front of hybrid perpetuals because the former will grow lower than the latter At present successful rose growers advocate planting hybrid teas i2 to IS inches apart.
 When you buy new plants order them from a reputable dealer. He will sell you budded stock. but very few of them will send up shoots from the parent wildvFcse There Is an art in grating, and 1t pays to buy plants from . nursery that knows the art of pr0pAe atihg.

they have been growing in the nursery. Cut them back to three or four eyes on each stem.
 Each year the rose must be pruned. The flower comes on the growth that develops from. this years bud. Three stems and four eyes to the stem will produce an abundance of flowers.
 There is no set rule that can be set up as to when to feed a rose. Liquid manure is probably the best fertilizer to use just before the plant comes into flower. A pint per plant Is the average.
 
 Many pests and diseases attack the rose, and there are many remedies. It is unwise to recotn- mend any one spray. The best plan is to spray regularly with
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-04-01

chemicals that will prevent spreading of fungus disease, and one that will kill the leaf eating insects. Hand picking of the rose beetle is the best method to eradi- cate this pest.
 Always keep the ground culti- vated. Peat moss or buckwheat hulls may be used as mulch over the top of the ground, but do not let this material get into the soil around the roots. It will make the soil too light.
 After roses stop blooming In the fall, stop feeding. when. the leaves drop off. cover each piAnt with q hill of soil 10 inches higl, for the winter. Tn the spsing re- move the soil and pfune the plant.

Spurred by President Roose-

The Treasury action marked the
second major reduction in Federal
employment rolls instituted in the
past two weeks. Shortly after
the President asked departmental
chiefs to trim costs, the Agricul.

dismissed more than 800 Govern

Three hundred employees at the
Washington Navy Yard were with
out jobs today in what has been
classified as the largest group lay
off since the 1888 warship building
program was set up under the
Public Works Administration.
Most of the 300 are machinists.
The move at the local Navy Yard
is only part of dismissal program
affecting 5000 employees in yards

said today by Navy Yard officials.
Attempts to protest the action
by union groups we're fruitless in

did not warrant employing the
men. Notice of the mass dismissal
was given to the men two months

Retired u. 5. Worker
Is Found Dead in Tub

Joseph A. Weise, 81, was found
dead in a bathtub in the Occiden-

was a retired Veterans Bureau
worker and had lived in Washing
ton 10 years, the last three at the
hotel. When Weise had been in
the bathroom an unusually long
time and failed to respond to
knocks, the management broke in
the door. He lay in extremely hot
water, the shock of which is be.
heved to have stopped his heart.
In his effects the police found
evidence Weise had brother and
sister in Ohio,
