Today of the countys high school girls is dead She
was killed about in the Sligo Greek Park on day
when schools closed because of snow She might easily
have been walking home from schoo-but she wasnt-she
was just out shedding, enjoying the snow.
She killed within few feet of two paved streets
Caroline and Manchester Roads,
She was killed in the heart of apartment area where
hundreds of youngsters play and come and go from
school each day.
She was killed in the Sligo Greek Park where two
girls were killed year and half ago.

Rockville Garden
Club Creates
Decorations

Creating little works of art with
materials from their own garden
is the speciality of the members
of the Rockville Garden Club.
AT the last meeting of the Rock
vile Garden Club held on Tues
day at Parklawn the women
donned work clothes, gloves, and
with shears in hand, created
many decorations for the home.
Using a rope for a base, Mrs.
B. Lodder worked on a lovely
wreath. A combination of holly
and pine was shaped into a door
swag by Mrs. w. 1. Cleveland. I'M
ported miniature camel bells were
an artistic touch.
A very impressive large cross
for the cemetary was prepared
by Mrs. w. c. Hanson. Holly,
pine, cones, and lister were used.
The eros, over SO inches tall, rest
ed on a wire platform.
The Vane residence on Scott
Drive will feature a large basket
of holly, ivy and cherry laurel, to
be placed at the front entrance.
A welcome gift to a shut-in will
be presented by Mrs. Watson
Phillips. Mrs. Phillips, whose ar
rangements are always artistic
and unusual, used copper-toned
magnolia leaves on a styrofoam
base. Accents were white rosettes
of pine cones and a cheerful green
bow.
Other lovely arrangements in
cluded an English kissing ring of
Poulonia pod and pine by Mrs.
Lindley Van Ripper and cheer
full centerpieces of holly, ever
greens and candles, by Mrs. D.
P. Hurley, Mrs. Donald Roush,
and Mrs. Malcolm Morse. Huge
red and white carnations were
used with pine, by Mrs. C. c.
Fry.
Mrs. Harry Westcott and Mrs.
Bradford Headley demonstrated
little works of art, using Christ
mas balls as the base. Mrs. West
colts was a huge ball decorated
in gold and elaborate sequins de-
sign. Dried objects, sprayed by
Mrs. ]. j. Hutton, were displayed.
Although Mrs. Gilbert Hartley
did not exhibit her usual arrange
ment, many of the members of
the club were wearing her gay
corsages. Another highlight of
the meeting was the magnificent
display of Bird of Paradise, an
therium and ginger flown in from
Hawaii. Mrs. Frank Jenkins told
the club that little balloons filled
with water were tied to the base
of the stems to keep the flowers
fresh.
In the business section Of the
meeting, it was announced that
Mrs. Bradford Headley won Sec
ond prize for her collection of
evergreens and Mrs. Francis
Vane, an honorable mention, for
her miniature swag. Both exhib-
its were seen at the Baltimore
Christmas Green Show at the Bal
timore Museum of Art.
At the recent convention of the
Garden Club members from six
States, held in Annapolis, Mrs.
William Lodder won an honorable
mention for her lovely painting
of Jack in the Pulpit.
Mrs. John L. Morris was well
coined into the club as new
member. Special guest was Mrs.
John Hall, mother of Mrs. Donald
Roush.
