4 r ONE time this namesake Of
~ Anna Paulowina, princess Of
~ the Netherlands. was receiv-
= ing much publicity. Because
Of the ornamental foliage and very
beautiful flowers that developed In
snowy panicles. many became quite
familiar with the small trees. When
they grew to large ones we heard lit
tie about them until Of recent years,
when they again aroused the interest
Of thousands Of nature lovers who
came seeking Information.
The paulowinas MAY be grown in
sheltered spots as far north Is Mas
sachusetts. These trees are Of medium
size with strong, stout branches with
spreading tendencies. The large long
stemmed leaves resemble those OF our
catalpa tree. The flowers are violet
or white and quite large. They look
very much like those Of our foxglove
or gloxinia In shape and appear in
terminal clusters before and some
times with the leaves and are fol-
lowed by ovid pods on the tree through
the winter. The many small seeds in
their sturdy pod have wings.
These lovely trees may be grown
from seeds. There are about eight
species in China. One is cultivated
in Japan. The plants grown from
seed collected in Korea seem to be
more hardy than those from the tree
in Japan. II the tree Is killed by
frost it will send up vigorous shoots
from its roots that often reach a
height of 10 to IA feet, with leaves
that are IL inches wide and sometimes
more. If you wish to plant one or
more Of these ornamental plants you
must cut it back every spring, re-
moving all but a few young shoots on
each plant. For years this severe
treatment results in luxuriant plants,
but too much pruning eventually
causes the plant to stage less and less
of a comeback.

shade. Its drawback Is its habit of
presenting its blooms in all their
glory without 4 background of foliage.
You have three ways to grow this
tree: BY seed, root-cuttings or by
planting = young unfolding leaf cut
close to the stem and inserted in
sand under glass in q warm room
until 1t has strength enough to be set
outside. Some have had success in
planting several new plants together
in a tub and thus had healthy shrub
berry decorating an open porch in
summer which could be taken inside
in autumn until the leaves begin to
fall. There is much to learn about
these trees and what can be done to-
ward their Advancement. This opens

ness and industry, that this coun-
try has drifted into an excess of
Capitalization" This condition, he
insisted, must be remedied before
sound prosperity can come to the
United States.
FORUM SCHEDULED
OLeary's address preceded an
open forum designed to give q
broad view of conditions through
out the country, with six speakers
from different geographical Sec
tors scheduled to talk informally
Of his own section.
Free business enterprise, said
OLeary, is vital not only to indus
trial welfare and sound economics,
but also to the establishment of
a spirit of confidence that will
definitely set the tide of American
life running toward prosperity.
The opposite, broad Government
regulation, he said, is retarding
recovery and breeds trends of in
creased regulation.
O'Leary made no specific propo-
sails, but confined his talk to a
broad attack on evil and hamper
ing practices" leaving the indi-
vidual subjects of burdenSome
taxation, wages, and hours, unem-
ployment, and Government spend
ing to later speakers. He en-
phasized that the chamber at the
current meeting would endeavor
to draft a concrete program Of
recovery and lay it before Presi-
dent Roosevelt, Congress, and the
nation.

ton of resolutions whipped into

The selection of a summer ward
robe, especially for the working girl,
presents a serious problem. Most
dresses after a few broiling hours
look as though they had been wrung
through a wringer and not even
hung up to dry. A careful choice OF
fabrics and styles will be a help IN
avoiding this appearance.
First of all, limit yourself to wash
dresses almost entirely during the
hottestpart of the summer. Buytnem
with an eye to easy laundering. Sew
eral dresses that can be rinsed out
Mt q moments notice, dried IN q
few minutes aud ironed with little
or no effort will serve You better
than five or six frocks that must De
sent to the cleaner or which are q
real chore to launder yourself. on
these days when we go around IN
a perpetual drip, it is almost 1mpos-
sible to make q dress do more tnap
one day without ~rinsing it out, but
q clever collection Of easily laun-
dered dresses will save your leisure
hours from Tubing and ironing
drudgery.
There are a number OF fabrics on
the market today which are said
to be .crush-resistant." How well
these materials make good theif
claim Is q matter Of opinion but
they are especially treated to hold
up under trials of summer weather.
Washable prints are very wise buys
for the working girl since the print
has a tendency to make ereases less
noticeable. Light colors always lool
cooler in summer than dark OF
bright hues and we feel, to some ex'
tent at least, as cool rs we look
