Transplanting
Your PeOnieS

Peony plants can be successfully
transplanted until about the middle
of November. This is a good time
to divide or transplant old, estab-.
lished peony paintings which have
been I low ng Enthusiastically,
George X. Vapaa, county agricul-
tural agent says.
Divide large clumps of roots in
to sections, so there are at least
three eyes or buds on each clump of
roots in the new division. These
should provide Towering plants for
the following season.
Set the roots or toes so the eyes
or buds are two inches below the
soil surface. Well-rotted. manure
and a handful of a complete fertil-
izer mixed thoroughly with the soil
before planting, will give the plants
a boost.
Large vigorous-growing types
should be spaced four feet apart,
Mr.. Vapaa said.
Peonies do best in full sun, so
try to place them in a sunny suot.

from the public that once thrilled to her image?
1t was not until tried to find the answer that
discovered how firmly she has sealed the door,
Even the men and women who work in the small
exclusive neghborhood in the East Fftes where she
lives seem to be in league to preserve her privacy
At the fruit stand, white haired, ruddy.faced
lady smiles reproachfully when the conversation
turns from peaches and strawberries to Carbo.
''She is a very nice person. she said. ''She
always smiles at my little Loretta She likes to buy
persimmons. try to get her good Ones"
Across the street at a tiny flower market the
cheerful owner says, "Carbo? We see her often.
She loves flowers But she only buys them in sea-
son. No roses in December. We like her. We treat
her like we treat anyone else that's the way she
wants it, why not?''
A woman Of mystery
The doorman of an apartment house nearby re-
veas, when she comes out she stops at the door
way and looks both ways. Then she walks close to
the buildings Most of the time she dresses the same
way long, blue cape and fiat shoes and something
on her head. Sometimes people stop and stare at
her. If they do that she runs away dashes back
into the house."

died, II pick her up in while. The first time
didn't recognize her. She wears this hat yanked
down over one eye. Then look in the mirror ai,d
almost hit bus I'm so surprised
Carbo's extreme shyness stems from something
deep in her personality, and perhaps in her early
childhood history.
Born in Stockholm, she was the youngest daugh-
ter of Karl Custafsson, uneducated day laborer.
She went to work at l3 soap atherer in barber
shop. From there she moved on to a sales job in
department store, became stage-struck and enrolled

NEW YORK
DUMNAcNc in the dusty gloom of an antique-and-
N junk shop on New York City's upper East Side
few weeks ago, spotted ladies' vanity mirror
framed in gold metal and decorated with three abb
surdly fat jolly cupids. Thinking ahead to my wifes
birthday, picked it up. A woman standing beside
me reached for it at the same time and for moment
we both clenched the handle.
The woman's hand was long and slender. She
wore rings. Her 6ngernaiIs were unpublished and
shipped off bluntly at the ends. She was wearing
slacks and a CAPE A blue peasant scarf was knotted
around her head.
''Pm sorry," | said. 'I beg your PARDON She
raised two enormous blue eyes set in a face of un-
forgettabe perfection - and gave gasp of recog-
milton. But at the same moment the beautiful eyes
registered apprehension. Without replying she
turned and fed from the shop. Still clutching the
mirror, l followed her to the door.
THAT was Carbo!' l said
The shop owner nodded. ''She comes in here
often," he said. ''But she doesn't buy much. She
likes anything with cupids.''
A living legend
Creta Carbo is 81 years old. She retired from the
movie industry l8 years ago. Yet she remains the
most exciting, of the most beautiful, certainly
the most sought-after movie star the world has
known.
When her 1896 movie version of Camille was
re.released by MCM it drew almost as big audiences
as it had when first shown Today nearly all her old
movies, including ''Anna Christie" "Ninotchka'
and ''Mata Hari," have been leased to TV When
they shown ratings soar, the audience expanded
by many lockers who don't ordinarily watch TV. As
if to add further luster to the Carbo legend the
fashion industry is busly reviving the ''l93O's
Look" look largely inspired by Carlo.
Evening star., 1959-10-04

But despite the amazing interest that surrounds
her every action Carbo has done nothing enhance
her own legend On the contrary, she refuses to be
photographed, interviewed or even stared at.
She goes to absurd lengths to avoid any contact
with reporters. Neither personal pleading nor a
worthy cause will tempt her out of her shell. Indeed
she devotes most of her time and energy to being
unreachable. She will not answer the question:
'Why?"
Why the fight from the limelight? Why the
sphinx-like silence? Why the self-imposed isolation
