MILLION DOLLAR
GARDEN
(CmtribNted)

1 own a garden which I call "a
gem among gardens in a million
dollar setting. 1 say that this is
a million dollar garden because it
keeps me physically fit, mentally
alert and neighborly in spirit. For
benefit of those who own and work
in a garden, take leave to de-
scribe briefly the most notable
feature of this garden, namely the
lily pond.
The pond is small one, exactly
fitting into the general landscape.
1t is made in two sections. The
larger section is supported by a
concrete dam, the smaller section
is held in place by an earth dam
which has wide abutments of earth
at either end. So the two sections
come together in a perfect horse
shoe formation. Large, vine clad
pergolas stand on either side,
roses, wisteria, and other climbers
make an admirable setting amid
walnut, maple and cedar trees.
The lower pond is almost cover
ed with water lilies and a water
plant that blooms like a glorified
yellow buttercup. The water lilies
are white, pink, yellow and red,
and these also grow in the upper
section planted this year. On the
earth dam which divides the two
sections of the pond are growing
dozens of large clumps of Japa-
nese iris and a clump of English
iris. The Japanese iris are now in
their glory and they demand plenty
of moisture. They are the last
spring iris to bloom.
My favorite sport is to sit in the
early morning, under a spreading
walnut tree and watch the sun
shining through the irises and
water lilies. Does any gardener
wish to measure the beauty of this
scene? It is easy! In magma
ton, take King Georges crown of
State and magnify it to the size
of the lower pond and set the same
out into the sunlight and watch
the sun come smiling through the
jewels.
If the said gardener does not
grow faint with pleasurable emo
ton, he is no gardener, and I who
tell this story, am not the owner
of million dollar garden.
On small table-land above the
upper section of this pond, there
are growing tall plants of the hi
discus Sunset. These plants
grown from seeds, will bloom after
the Japanese iris are gone and the
blooming season of the pond will
last until frost.

burn promised.
Stephen was glad to get out into
the sun again. He walked along,
absorbed in his thoughts, which, in
spite Of all he could do, revolved
around Janet Storm. He, too, was
remembering the events centered in
the accident yesterday, the light
suppleness of the girl in his arms,
the soft, cnnging of glossy strand
of her black hair against his cheek.
He felt unnerved again even re-
membering it.
Eliza, his Sharp-faced little house
keeper, eyed him speculatively as
she came in that evening to ask him
about supper. He was seated in the
cozy book-lined living room before
the CRATE fire.

Nothing, Eliza" he answered with
with absent-minded irritability. I'm
not hungry. You can go, If you like.
I won't be needing anything"
Whatever you say, sir" She
turned to 60.
"Wait just a minute, Eliza"
Stephen said. He'd taken out his
pipe and was filling it, tamping the
tobacco down with his thumb. II
think I'll plan to have small gath
ering next Sunday afternoon. L
ah-" He lit match and cupped
it over his pipe, drawing the flame
into the bowl with deep draws. "One
of those little informal-tea parties
you call them. The clubs outing
yesterday wasn't such a success
and they always enjoy coming here.
Your cookies, suppose"
Thank you, sir" Eliza said dryly.

Stephen puffed thoughtfully on
his pipe and stared into the fire.
Presently he rose, signing, and
reached for a book. He needed
something to pin his mind to.

Mission Seeks CIothinq
For 1900 Children

More than 1900 children have
been listed by their parents and
guardians as candidates for the bags
to be filed for the Central Union
Missions annual Christmas party
December "a at $50 am. at the
Capitol Theater.
Mrs. Roosevelt is expected to pre-
side for the third successive year.
The bags have been made by the
Women's Guild and are ready at
the mission for generous Washing
tonians to fill for some girl or boy.
For years the mission has been the
means of bringing together the
prospective donor and the needy
child at Christmas time by attach
ing to each bag the name, age and
shoe and garment size of the child.
A list of suggestions of the most
practical articles needed Is also at
tached to the bag.
The United States Marine Band
is usually on hand to play during
the first part of the occasion. Santa
Claus is always there. The late
John s. Bennett played that role
and since his death his friend and
colleague, Homer Rodeheaver, has
come from Chicago to fill the part.
