Those who have gone in for lilies
and are seeking unusual plants have
been trying to learn more about
the exquisite spider lily" also
known as bridal crown lily"
plant of exceptional beauty and
charm and today found only in a
limited area In our country.
From South Carolina to Florida,
in the Mississippi Valley as far
north as Illinois and Indiana, these
flowers have been found, and also
some lovely groups of them in the
Chattahoochee River not far from
Columbus. Ga, along the Warrior
River and also in the Little Canada
River in Alabama Coming upon
these lilies, their beauty enthralls
you, their fragrance fills the air
all about you and their presence is
such a reminder of tropical places

these lilies grow in the long stretch
Of marshlands shortly after leaving
Port Limon, Costa Rica, en- route
to San Jose. where the railroad
passes between the sea on one side
and the marshlands on the left.
Those who have seen them have
been 50 impressed by the sight that
they never resist the opportunity
to tell others Of this rare expert
ence. They also long to have these
lilies planted in some suitable place
In our country where they will beau
tify the landscape, as they do the
waters Of this chosen spot.
Many know that birds are re-
sponsible for the transplanting to
unusual spots, Of beautiful plants,
trees, flowers and shrubs. 1t is

their tropical home, either the West

migrating birds on their way north
from their winter vacation. Some
contend that these lilies belong in

DEMlLLE SpECTACLE
 STILL PLAYING AT
 COLISEUM THEATRE

Never one to rest content with past accomplishments, Cecil B. De Mile has achieved the most im- pressive spectacle of his career in Union Pacific, his latest produc- tion. But more than that he has combined De Mile grandeur with intense human drama in the pie ture that Paramount brought to the Coliseum Theater starring Bar bara Stanwyck and Joel McCrea.
 The dream of a transcontinental tailroad by men far-visioned enough to attempt the linking of Amsri- cas- two coasts; the amazing in trigues set in motion against them by men with more regard for their bal foll than their country; the great obstacles provided by nature and Indian tribes-all these pro- vide De Mile with perfect material with which to spin out a breath taking fabric of human courage and achievement. This feature is to be seen tonight and tomorrow.

The best laid plans can be

needs cleaning, only more so.
When I am laid low with a
cold and six people are dashing
around, it seems to me the
house should be locked and the
key thrown away.
All of which,, along with
Johnson's remarks about fish

Fishing, fishing is one of the
gentler arts,
Whether you fish for fishes, or
fish for hearts.
Fishing, fishing, it's all in the
hands of fate,
And all your success, whether
good or bad,
Depends on your kind of bait.
Which reminds me, I've
