YES, a certain grandmother sur
prised everybody-even her
self. She had always enjoyed
making hit and miss rag rugs in
CHEEKY colors:- Then one day her
favorite grandson brought home
the girl he was going to marry.
She was a bright young thing, and
chartered away about color
schemes for her new home.
The living room and hall were to
be peacock blue and rust with
touches of black. "Well, peacock
is just greenish blue" thought
Grandmother, and rust is a
brownish red" So she got out her
dye pot and her best wool rags.
and she mixed and she dipped and
dipped again. Then, instead of
sewing her braided rags into one
big oval, she made five ovals of
the size shown here-3 black and
2 blue. She seWed these together,
then around them came 4 rows of
rust; rows of black next; then 4
of rust; l of black; 4 blue; 2

TIPS to
Gardeners
Care in TranspIantinu

TRANSMITTING is an impor-
i tant activity in almost every
garden, but a gardener will save
time and possible disappointment
if he knows what should and what
should not be transplanted.
The following should not be
moved: Celosia, didiscus (blue
lace fower), four o'clock, hume
mania, and perennial sweet pea.
Because of their peculiar root
growth, these flowers are dam
aged, sometimes even killed, when
transplanted.
Flowers which may be trans
planted with little fear of dam
age, as long as the moving is done
properly, include ageratum, alys-
sum, snapdragon, aster, calendu-
la, marigold, pansy, petunia,
pinks, saliva, scabiosa, verbena,
Canterbury bells, columbine, hol-
lyhock, pyrethrum and viola.
There is a third division of flow
ers, according to Harry A. Joy,
flower expert of the Ferry Seed
Breeding Station, whose lives will
not be endangered by transplant
ing, but whose growth will be
stunted. Both plant and blossoms
will be smaller but earlier. Lark
spur, zinnia, phlox, nasturtium
and bachelor button are in this
group.

Tom Mooney, Frai|
From Recent Illness,
Visits Washington
Labor Leader Abundons
Thoughts Of Lectures
For Months to Come

Tom Mooney was in Washington
today, frail looking. emerging slowly
from the shadows of death that sur
rounded him in Pittsburgh for weeks
after an intestinal hemorrhage in
terrupted a Nationwide lecture
tour.
The 57-year-old labor leader, par
doned last year after serving nearly
Is years in connection with the San
Francisco Preparedness Day bomb
ing of 1916, has abandoned all
thoughts of lectures or any other ac-
tivities for months to come. The
doctors have told him that his only
hope to regain his health is complete
rest for about year.
I'm not even reading too seri-
ously." he explained at the May
flower Hotel Il picked up books,
but the minute they excite or weary
me 1 stop and close my eyes"
Later Mr.. Mooney hopes to write a
history of his celebrated case, which
rocked labor circles and concerned
lawyers generally for many years be-
fore Gov. Cutherbert Olson finally
pardoned him.
He was stricken after a lecture in
Pittsburgh on October 10 with a re-
currence of the stomach trouble he
dates back to an "all starch" diet
he was forced to follow in San
Quentin Penitentiary so many years.
He rallied after blood transfusian,
but remained in a critical condition
several weeks and left the hospital
only a week ago.
He is remaining in Washington
only a day to see few friends. He
is on his way to California, where he
plans to 60 into seclusion somewhere
in the country for a period of
months.
But Tom Mooney hasn't gone into
permanent retirement. He said en-
phatically: II still hope to raise my
voice again for the things I believe
in. I hope to fight on for truth and
