Time-Soving Ground Covers
BY GEORGE E. CREED

BY GEORGE {. CREED
, Contributing Writer

Broad open areas on a
developed property, whether
in grass, flowers or ground
cover. are usually open to
full view. Being easy to reach,
they usually receive the best
maintenance. On the other
hand. narrow strips and
places that are hard to reach
are often neglected.
For this reason it is a good
idea to eliminate them as
much as possible. Sometimes
this is not feasible, and other
means Of making mainten-
ance easier must be sought.
One such area is the narrow
strip that lies between a
hedge and sidewalk or drive
way. Because it is hard work
to trim grass and pull weeds
in places like these, they often
become over-grown and I'M
kempt. However, one simple
solution is to use ground
covers.
Be sure to plant your ma
terialS close enough together.
Allowing too much space be-
tween them will result in a
growth of weeds before the
cover plants have had a
chance to fill in the voids.
Space English ivy and myrtle
about 9 inches apart. In
planting close to a hedge, be
careful not to injure the
roots. Soil should be looSened
as much as possible and be
built up with an additional
two or three inches of light
topSoil mixed thoroughly with
peat moss.
Such preparation is Of ut
most Importance since both
Of these plants spread by
runners that send out roots.
II the soil is hard and I'M
receptive their spread will be
retarded, with the result that

Opening lead: Trey of hearts.
West leads his singleton
heart, dummy plays the jack
and East wins with the king.
East returns a heart (prefer-
ably the ace). and South ruffs
with the king of spades.
"Ah, hal" says the average
West, II can't get better value
than that for my ace" And he
overruffs. This greediness al
lows South to make his con-
tract.
West next leads a diamond

returns another heart. South
ruffs with the queen and then
draws trumpS with the jack

less East has a sharp eye and
a tongue to match.
Ace Can Wait
There is no need for panicky
haste in taking the ace Of

would never let anybody take
the ace of trumps away from

right time.
When South ruffs the second
trick with the king Of spades,
just discard a club or a dia-

II ran across a word which
puzzles me somewhat" writes a
San Bernardino (Calif) read
er. In a war novel the author
writes that three thousand
weary troops disembarked at
the staging area after their
long train trim from Kansas.
My question: How can you dis
embark from a train? Shouldn't
this word be reserved for get
ting off ships?"
Technically speaking, OF
course. my reader is right. Both
"disembark" and "debark" are
formed from bark" meaning
ship and logically should be
used only in referring to the
process of getting off a ship. q

find he's averaged 100 miles TO
the gallon. Same thing on the
return trip home. Then, All, hal.
there comes a Secretive knock On
the door. A well dressed strdnG-
cr enters, flashing a card idcnt-

takes the owner into his conf

there's been a mistake at the
factory. The car you bought is
an experimental model, nEvcI

But OF course the owner Iev-
