Billy can climb easily he doesn't do

LongWood du Pont estate gardens.
You have probably heard lot about
these gardens, and probably every
thing you heard was true, for their
beauty can hardly be exaggerated.
They are the best of their kind in
the country. There are formal and
informal gardens. pools, fountains, a
waterfall and a lake in addition to
the huge conservatory and the out
door theater.
During June the indoor gardens
are the main attraction, while the
outdoor gardens are featured in
July. The entire grounds are free
to the public on weekdays, and are
open on the first and third Sum-
days of each month at a 50-cent
charge. This is the third Sunday
in June, so you will find the garden
open today. Beginning next Wednes-
day, the outdoor theater. seating g.
600, will present four-night en-
gagement of The Story of Ken
nett" After each performance the
incompatible electric fountains are
displayed Each nights show be-
gins at pm, daylight saving time.
The gardens are open from II am.
to 6 pm, daylight saving time.
At the time of writing, con-
struction work was in progress in

Here occurred severe defeat for
WaShington's forces, and it was
followed by worse one at German

Army, beaten, poorly equipped and

driving through West Chester,
which is one of those towns you
think you'd like some day to come
back and live in, and following U. S.

Forge State Park.
My first impression as I entered
the park this time was disbelief. 1
could not believe that a place so
beautiful could have once held so
much suffering. It was hard for
me to believe that $500 of the H.
600 men who camped here in l778
are still hereunder the sod which
grows so lush. 1t was hard to be-
lieve that the rich farmland I saw
around Valley Forge allowed hun
dreds of men to starve to death in
1778. 1t was hard to believe that
