Hybrid Teas, one Floribunda and one
Pillar Rose are generally recon-
mended. All have shown vigorous
growth, free-blooming habits, degrees
of fragrance and general adaptability
With proper care, they should give
good account of themselves, north,
south, east and west.
The Winners.
Charlotte Armstrong led the scor-
ing of all 1910 and 1941 introduce
tions. It's blood-red buds open to
cerise in warm weather and to spec
trum-red in cool weather, with warm
ing gold flushes at petal bases. Long
slender buds are pointed to urn
shaped and petal margins are pen
ciled with silvery or Thulite pink.
Worlds Fair is blackish-red Flori-
bunda, bright blood-red in spring
Even the new foliage is reddish
bronze and open flowers show a
flowing mass of golden stamens.
The Chief has extremely long spec
trum-red buds held by clasping Sc
pals. There is sweet, fruity fra
GRANGE, and bud form is a reminder
of Talisman.
California is ruddy- orange with yel-
low tones, with outside of petals
overlaid a Saturn-rose. Buds are
oval to long-pointed, petals are large
and, when properly grown, the flow
ers are immense.
Apricot Queen has lovely, long
pointed buds of burnt orange. There
are orange and apricot at the base
merging to salmony-rose and phlox-
pink in the developed bloom, an ef-
feet of coppery orange-pink. Like
California, it has a rich fruity fra
GRANGE.
Dickson's Red has glowing flowers
of mans lively red, and holds its
lustre on the petal faces. It seems
to stand the hottest sun undimmed.
Flash climbs six or eight feet to
show the most vivid color of any
Pillar rose. The fiery buds are
chrome yellow, suffused with scarlet,
and open to cleaning orange-scar-
let.

All-America Rose Varieties.

>~OSsO AOSANSs
The All-America flower and vege-
table seed councils have been so help
full in their selections, and shall we
say eliminations, that rose growers
sponsored similar organization, to
try out the proposed new rose var
ieties, in IA test gardens in different
parts of the country.
These trials run for two years, to
see how the roses behave in wet and
dry seasons, how they stand winter
freezes and summer sun, insects and
disease. Judges observe, note and
score them all through the growing
and blooming seasons. The average of
their final scores, together with their
frank opinions, determine any which
might be recommended, either gen.
orally or for particular sections of the
United States.

The Rose and the Thorn.
By wayside fence, wild rose grew;
She looked at her neighbors there
The mullen and briar and sorrel, too.
They are all so plain, I do declare!
She blushed with pride for having to
grow
Near these, so plain and homely.
They felt her pride, and ceased to
know
That she was sweet, or fair, or
comely.
And bye and bye, the self-pride

 Michael C.. Beckanstin, charged with speeding, pleaded his own case before Judge McDonough, and paid $15.0O0 without costs when found guilty.
 Judge McDonough, citing the case of individuals who try to withdraw and pay lower court fines, stated that no such withdrawals could be made by such persons appealing to the common pleas court once the term opens. He then went on to read Section 6404 of the General Statutes, as follows:
 Any person appealing from the judgment of a justice of the peace, borough, town, police or city court, adjudging him to pay fine and cost only, may pay the same at any time before the session of the ap- pellate court, without further cost except for copy of record, if such copy shall have been made, and costs of his commitment and his board in jail, if he shall have been committed in default of bonds on his appeal, which payment shall va cate the appeal and restore the judgment"

Gallant Greeks
 At Home, At War
 In Need Of Aid

Despite current successes of her army, Greece's defense against the invader is being waged at heavy cost to the Hellenic people. Ca- bIe advices reaching here from the recently opened American Red Cross headquarters at Athens de- scribed (D urgent needs of the Greek Army Medical Corps in the Albanian frOntline defense and (2) mounting needs for food, clothing and medical supplies among the civilian population, which in some regions, notably Corfu, has been heavily bombed. At the outset of the Italian in- vasiOn, October 27, the American Red Cross moved swiftly to share in alleviating the suffering among the military and civilian popula- tiOnS. Since then $1,400,O0O has been spent or committed by the American Red Cross to pfOvide food, clothing, medical supplies and other relief essentials. At this moment Red Cross supply officers are loading a 7,500-ton mercy ship" at an Eastern seaport with a million dollar cargo of critical ly needed supplies. The S126,000 worth of supplies as part of it's cargo, now is en route to Athens. Through American Red Cross ar engagements, the British Red Cross is rushing 25 ambulances from one of it's Middle East depots to Greece. Three units will be re- placed by the American Red Cross.

BURLESQUE SHOWS
 NOW ON PROBATION
Priest Voices Confidence in Promoters, Police;
 Ministers Take Action

Confidence in the ethics of the men promoting the burleSque shows at Jacques Theater in that they will check the shows in regard to morality of dress and offer non- objec tionable lines in dialogues was voiced this morning by Rev. Mich ael F. Heating, pastor of SS. Peter and Paul Church, who criticized the shows in his sermon last Sun- day morning.
 Father Heating believes that the promoters will offer a show much different than the burlesque shows of New York. He also voiced con- fidence in the police department, the mayor and states attorney whom he believes will not let the shows corrupt the morals of young people.
 An aftermath of Father Heating s stirring sermon Sunday was the resolution adopted yesterday by the Ministers, Association at theil monthly barley They went on rec ord supporting Father Heating who recommended that action be taken by city officials to prevent the shows from becoming an evil here.
 Police Chief William J. Roach told the Democrat this morning that no complaints on any of the shows at Jacques have been registered with him yet. He further added hat the management of the shows have been very cooperative to date and are thorough businessmen bent upon pleasing everyone and injuring no one.
 Roach went on record as saying that members of the vice-squad check each new show very closely and have been ordered to cut out lines in the dialog wherever they see fit. Mayor Vincent A. Scully has also ordered the police to see that the shows are kept within the hO11pdS of dacencV

 The master barbers have. an- nounced increases in minimum rates in local shops. The new rates are 50 cents for haircuts and 25 cents for slaves. Increased labor costs and the fact that many journey men barbers are going into factory jobs are claimed to be responsible. However, the new minimums will affect few shops, since most estab- lishments have been charging those prices.
