Fall Is a Good Time
To Plant Roses

LATE FALL has proved 10 be an
excellent time to plant roses, and
right now is none too early 10 be-
gin thinking of the location of the
bed which is to receive them.
Planting plans should be made and
orders placed now for later deliv-
cry. Nurserymen start digging
plants as soon as frost and cool
weather stop top growth and start
to harden the wood. Planting usual
ly gets under way in late October,
continues through November and
may 60 into December, or as long
as the ground remains frost-free and
workable.
Whether you are planting rose,
a dozen or more, the beauty and
fragrance that have made this plant
a universal garden favorite certain
~ demand that you plant it 10 the
best of your ability. Roses thrive in
fairly heavy soil, as long as it is
well drained. In dense, hard soil,
having poor drainage, it will pay to
excavate the area to be planted to
a depth of two feet and TO place in
the bottom a six-inch layer of scrap
stone or coarse gravel or einders.
Beds TO hold six or more plants
should have a tile drain from the
drainage base directed toward a
lower portion of the garden, storm
sewer OF dry well. Well drained soil
does not need this s~ub-drainage.
Use Best Top Soil
The soil in which the roses are
10 be planted should consist of the
best of the top soil taken from the
excavation, mixed with IS percent
peat moss, huFnus or compost and
10 percent well rotted or dehydrated
manure. There will never be a bet.

Games
There are many games. Try these:
A bogus ride. No one knows where
they are going or why. The audience
will laugh itself silly over the trav-
eler's bogus ride. All kinds of queer
obstacles are scattered over the floor,
glasses of water, a pumpkin OF two,
banana peel and other dangerous ar
ticles. The chosen leader explains
that three bogus riders are to fol-
low him, mounted on broomsticks
and they must not touch the OBJ
stacles on the floor.
The actual ride is to be taken
blindfolded, but a trial trip is made
with the travellers eyes open. If
broomsticks are not available, use
canes. Carefully the first ride is TAX
en- with the leader explaining the
pitfalls rs he goes. Now bJindfold
the three and send them out on their
p~erilous journey. Give a starting sig
nal after the rest of the group has
quietly removed everything from
the floor. Watch the high stepping

Ingranls Receive Life
Imprisonment
Mother And Teen
Age Sons Saved From
Death Chair

AMERICUS, Ca Judge Will
liam NJ. Harper Of the Southwest
ern Superior Court in a ruling
last Tuesday attributed the death
sentences imposed upon convicted
Mrs. Rosa Lee Ingram and her
two teen-age sons, Wallace 16, and
Sammie Lee, IA, to circumStantial
evidence in connection with the
some time ago. Death sentences
were imposed upon Mrs. Ingram
and her two youngsters which re-
suited in national attention. Senti-
ment denouncing the Court de-
eisions of Georgia caused such a
furore in circles throughout the
country that in addition to the Ma
tional Association for the Adj
vancement of Colored People, a
number of organizations rallied to
the support of the 40-year-oh
mother and her two sons. 1t is
alleged that the late white share
cropper forced his attention on
Mrs. Ingram On numerous occas-
ions and out of self-respect de-
Tended herself.
Although the Ingrams would
become eligible for parole after
serving seven years counsel for the
trio, until last Tuesday night had
not indicated whether or not ap-
peal would be made to the Georgia
Supreme Court.

here by legislature observers as
probably before the end Of the
week.
In passing the bill here last
week the house reversed itself on
2 previous vote when the measure
was detected by 81 to so. The bill
failing because of the tive thirds
majority needed for its passage.
Proponents of the bill admit that
it is in anticipation Of the anact-
lent of the federal anti-poll tax
law, and that it is designed pri-
marily to prevent widespread vot-
ing by Negroes of the state.
In the Senate where the biz
must be adopted on the three sue
cessive days reading it had ahea-
dy been through one reading and
was reported to be the subject I'M
der consideration in and execut-
i've session of the Senate last Wed
nesday. Visitors as well as news
paper reporters were barred dur
ing the Senate debate on the issue.
Another amendment to the con-
stitutfon primarily designed also
to prevent Negro voting and poll
teal participation already approx
ed by both the House and Senate,
and which must be now submitted
to the voters Of the state. re4uir-
es that those seeking to register
for participation in elections must
not only be able TO read the state
constitution but also to interpret
it to the satisfaction of the Cir
cult Clerk
It was the above measure that
led to tie rejection of the proposed
law requiring the teaching Of the
State Constitution in the Public
Schools Of the State the opponents
of the bill contending that all Ne
groes woald then commit the con-
stitution to memory and would
thus be qualified voters.
The good Character Rule is said
to be PATTERNED after a provision
of the constitution of the State of
Connecticut.
