Former Gov. CarVel
Heads Delaware
1858 Dimes March

The National Foundation for IN
fantiIe Paralysis announced today
the appointment of The Honorable
Elbert n Carvel, as State Chairman
of the 1858 March of Dimes. Basil
O'Connor, president of the National
organization said of the former
Governor, 81 am sure that under
your continued leadership every
county director and thousands of
volunteers will again be inspired to
do their utmost in organizing a
highdly successful campaign
Mr.. Carvel, who served previous
ly in this capacity, reported the
1857 March of Dimes in Delaware
realized $193, ,704O5 for the con-
tinued care of polio victims. Kent
County raised $16,739.O3, and New
Castle County, $63, ,05457, with Sus-
sex adding $23, ,910.45 to the total.
Il want to express my own deep
thanks, said the former Governor,
ito William ]. Cavanaugh of Dover,
Albert G. Corless of Wilmington
and Senator John j. Williams, of
MiIlsboro who provided the county
leadership that made this result
possible. Through their dedicated
efforts along with those of thou
sands of rank and file volunteers,
the National Foundation was given
the means to help polio victims for
whom the Salk vaccine came too
late"
1--WE can be proud of the way
the people of Delaware have "a
vailed themselves of our Salk vac
cination program this year, Mr..
Carvel stated. I'VE have set an ex-
ample for the nation few states
have approached. But we can't con-
clude from this that the fight a
gainst polio is over. A tremendous
obligation remains to the March
of Dimes to rehabilitate polio pa
tients of previous years and make
their lives meaningful.
National Foundation officials es-
innate there are nearly $4,000 polio
cases in the United States still de-
pendent on March of Dimes assis-
tance despite the dramatic drop in
new cases during the past two
years. Intensive rehabilitation of
these cases is now major empha-
sis of the organization.
Until every victim of infantile
paralysis has had the opportunity
to benefit from the recent dramatic
strides in rehabilitation medicine
we cannot say our job is done, Mr.
Carvel said. I'm the 1858 March of
Dimes we will ask the people of
Delaware to give generously again
that this great program can go on. :"

Milton Ladies To
FOregO Flower Display

The hot fingers of the continued
drought have reached out beyond
the utilitarian corn and other pro-
duce and have touched beauty, too.
The women of Milton have
abandoned one of their most ap
pealing features for the Sesqui-
Centennial celebration August 2,
and 4-"Great Grandmother's
Garden"-because some of the flow
ers they wanted most aren't doing
well enough for exhibition pur-
poses.
A few herbs are getting along
well, including sweet basil and rue,
but there's not enough, according
to those in charge, to make a
worthy show.
The children's flower arrange
ment classes are being continued
and the committee has asked for
flowers of any kind to brighten the
antique show.
"Great Grandmother's Garden"
was one of the features planned
for the Episcopal Parish House
during the length of the celebra-
ton.
Mrs. Robert Hopkins and Mrs.
David Shivelhood are co-chair-
men with Miss Sarah Atkins doing
the research.
While the men OF Milton were
building ships and going to sea in
them in those lOng-gone days, the
women, in common with women all
over the world, were seeking to
establish gardens with such time
and materials as they had at hand.
Some of the old families had
beautiful old-fashioned gardens re-
membered today. The lockwood
now still living at the Episcopal
rec tory is said to be $50 years old
but many of the other plants -
fax and lavender and old-time
herbs, have given way to progress
and more modern flowers.
There is considerable lavender
still growing in Milton gardens.
At one time it was tied in punches
for it's fragrance and later placed
in bags among the folds of the
lovely linen made from Milton
fax.
Other herbs to be found in local
gardens are sweet basil, rue, thyme
and a few others. They were
grown a great deal $50 years ago
as the freshest and best way of
seasoning.
Many of the early flowers came
from bushes such as lilacs and
some of the present midsummer
blooms were grown in gardens a
century and half ago but have
been so enlarged and improved
since that time that they would
scarcely be recognized as the same
| flowers.
