Green Fingers
BY RUTH TAYLOR

Happy indeed are those FORUM
ate people who live close to the
land where they can watch and
tend growing things. And doubly
fortunate are those with green
fingers" who have a kinship with
the elements of nature, those at
whose touch the earth blossoms
forth.
My grandmother was one of
these. Give her a plot of ground
no plgger than a pocket handker-
chief and she started a garden. 1t
was a haphazard sort Of affair. for
flowers bordered the vegetables
and wherever there was a spare
lnch of Gather, she started some
thing growing. She was a spend
thrift OF time and hospitality but
a miser when it came to buying
anything she could grow. Her
garden was also her joy and her
comfort, for she used to say if you
had a quick temper and an impa-
lent disposition, there was no cure
like a garden-you could watch all
Of life in it and you learned to
wait patiently for the fruit Of
your handiwork.
This year we r again urged to
go back to the land, to plant and
tend and harvest from our own
soil the fruit of the earth, not
only that we may all be well fed.
but that u neighbors overseas
may have food.
we must tend our gardens
carefully this yeyar. But in our
garden, both of the soil and of
life, we must take care to plant
the right seeds. We must watch
over them, watrieng with care. not
washing out the young plants
with floods of emotions nor letting
them damp out under the dank
chill of indifference. We must weed
out the false growths, the the
tares that choke. the hateful
smothering things that suck the
nourishment from the growing
foods.
In our gardens let us study the
immutable laws of nature fulfill
ing the destiny of life itself. Let
us weed out our unreasoning
hatreds and p%rejudices and throw
them on the compost heap or burn
them up Let us grow only those
plants which nourish or give
beauty-and let us grow only
those plants which nourish or give
beauty-and let us border our
our gardens with the bright pinks
of friendliness, the fragrant mig
nonette of understanding, the pur-
pie pansies of thoughtfulness.
And let us remember that a
garden blooms not for one alone,
but for all. AS Henry Van Dyke
said, let US make a garden for our
kind feelings with the gate eve
open to those who pass by.

(ashing of Terminal Leave Bonds by GIs
 0kehed Affer Sept. 1

WASHINGTON, July 29-R-- President Truman has signed the bill permitting GIs to cash their terminal leave bonds any time after September l, 1947.
 The President issued a state ment suggesting strongly that it is to the veterans best interest that they keep their bonds if they do not absolutely need to cash them now"
 He said if a large amount of the outstanding bonds, estimated at $2,000, 100000, are redeemed soon, general inflationary pressures would receive substantial boost"
 The legislation nullifies a pro- vision of the 1946 law that re- quired former servicemen to hold the bonds five years before cash ing them.
