Sentimental History

and engravers, versifiers and craftsmen on
both sides of the Atlantic competed in turning
out more and more frilly and fancy cards, with
fringes or feathers, lace-paper and intricate
embossings First American name in valen
tines is that of Esther Rowland of Worcester
Mass who in 1849 started production line of
lace paper dainties in her home and was soon
employing dozens of helpers.
With all the sentimentalizing going on in
valentine making and the equally ELUSIVE
wording, it was easy to see that valentines
would soon become targets for satire Comic
ones we're produced in London as early as
l84O and before long gentle comedy gave way
to satire or vicious humor. This fad lasted into
the early 10th century, and then seemed my
seriously to disappear. Love. affection and
fond remembrance again reigned But since
the course Of true love seldom runs smooth.

JUDGING by the sales figures of the greeting
ID card industry the United States must
surely be the most sentimental nation in his
tory, for this year some 400 million valentine
cards have been sold. That figures out to
about two big red hearts for every man. woman
and child. Next to Christmas cards, in fact
valentine greetings are the second biggest
seller, outranking such other specific &C.
casions as birthdays Easter or get-well

An occasion without any major religious
value and no particular historical signifi-
canoe, Valentine Day owes its popular sue
cess mainly to love, or the quest of it. AS ro-
mantle reminders of affection, valentines
were passed about in England over three cen
turtles ago. and the custom quickly took root in
the New World with the colonists. However,
it was not until the early 10th century that
valentines really hit their stride. Stationers

You Can Create
Beauty

A Design of Reach and Power
BY MRS. HERBERT n. GREGER-

The plan of action for max
ing an arrangement is often
greatly Influenced by the growth
characteristics of the various
plant componentS. Their habit,
their substance and structure,
the color and quality are sug-
gestive and leading, and the
composition is often bound by
these effects.
Then there is the opposite
approach, which started our
arrangement today. The fabul-
GUS reports from the I. G. Y.
can influence an arranger to an
extent that makes the well
trodden path of design poSsi-
bilities look frustratingly mea-
ger and narrow. The usual
curvilinear designs stay safely
within the handy paths Of basic
circular properties, limited to
arcs. circles, crescents and the
famous Hogarth line. They ap-
pear tame compared with the
non circular, irregular curves
and loops and hoops, spirals,
screw helix. double curves and
parabolas with all their un-
limited variations. It is an ex-
citing sensation to feel all these
new possibilities. like a pair OF
brand new glasses through
which our old and proven eyes
can see new vistas.
This arrangement was made
in such a mood. The evergreen
leaves Of Rohdea japonica. a
hardy herbacious plant, are

Mum Tips

Since 1t is difficult to carry
many chrysanthemum varieties
over winter in this area the
recommendations Of the Po-
tomac Chrysanthemum Society
are of interest. In soil areas
where varieties seldom survive
it is preferable to lift the
clumps and move them to a
well-drained situation. Pack
them closely together and see
that there are no holes for the
mice to hide in.
Cut the tops back to 6 inches
and remove the foliage. As
soon as the ground Is frozen,
mulch heavily.
Some may wish to try the
recommendation of one PCS
member. After cutting the tops
back, spread a plastic cover
over the bed and fasten the
edges securely to keep the wind
and the mice out. This should
work in a well-drained soil. OF
course, the cold frame is still
one of the best methods Of car
rying them over winter.

Last weeks warm weather
emphasized how helpless the
gardener is when it comes to
getting his plants ready for
winter. The gardener can rcgu-
late feeding, and to some ex-
tent watering. but he cannot
keep the temperatures low SO
that the wood will ripen Una
ture) before freezing weather.
It takes several weeks Of cool
weather for some plants to
ripen their wood.
Others will do it more quickly
but at best it takes time.
Should a severe freeze strike
before ripening takes place the
plants will be injured II not
killed.
This ripening of the wood,
some call it attaining DOR
NANCY, is, of course, most seri-
Gus with the woody plants and
it applies to all kinds. Even
tough old apple trees have beer
known to suffer.

Winter Storage
Suggestions for
Gurden Bulbs
BY BRIAN X. FINGER

BY BRIAN X. FINGER
Assistant MONTGOMERY County Agent
Most summer Towering bulbs
should be dug to prevent GER
tain death from freezing.
These bulbs include: tu-
berouse rooted begonias, caladi-
ums. callas. cannas, dahlias,
and gladiolus. Adequate stor-
age can be created in modern
cellars by simply partitioning
an area where a window exists
so that good ventilation and
temperatures can be main
tanned.
Store begonias. callas and
caladiums at so to so degrees.
Store bulbs of tuberous be-
gonlas at this temperature and
cover them with dry peat moss.
Cover cannas and dahlias
with peat or sand at 40 to so
degrees.
Dahlias need just a little
moisture.
Gladiolus should be stored

at 40 to so degrees, but should
be kept dry. You should store
only clean, unmarked bulbs.

Warning

This is not the season to move
evergreens "barerooted." If it
has to be done, there are o few
steps that can be taken which
may save the tree or shrub.
They are: /: Use a hormone
commonly available for use on
plants at transplanting time.
2. Mulch heavily. 3. Cut back
the top a third or more. 4.
Spray with a latex material to
materially reduce moisture loss
through needles leaves. S. Erect
q screen to protect from sun
and wind. 6. Cut your fingers
and hope.
Evening star., 1960-12-04
Compost

The compost piles should be
filled to overflowing before the
gardener gives up. II there are
not enough leaves in your yard
get them from neighbors or the
street department. Leaves are
the cheapest soil improver that
we can get.
II the compost pile is filled
spread some leaves on the
ground and spade them in this
fall. BY spring they will have
decayed and added Just that
much humus to the soil.
Evening star., 1960-12-04
Tie Up Loosely

It is not too early to tie up
loosely the broadleaved ever
greens that might be damaged
by heavy snow.
1t is too early to wrap UP any
kind Of shrub or tree because
such cover should not be put
on until the weather is def
nitely cold and likely to remain
so.
To cover before then Is to
delay ripening Of the wood and
make them nore likely to be
injured by freezing than those
not so protected.
Evening star., 1960-12-04
Boreoins

It is not too late to take ad-
vantage Of the bargains being
offered by local merchants who
still have bulbs to sell. All
kinds can be planted as long as
the soil is workable. The daffo-
dis will bloom later than nor
NAL next spring but most Of the
others will bloom about on
schedule.
Evening star., 1960-12-04
Bulbs

Those precocious bulbs that
insist on thinking spring is
here make gardeners wish that
they had not planted quite so
early. Normally the weather
would not have been warm
enough for them to pop through
the ground as they have been
doing for some weeks now.
There is nothing to do about
it now that they are UP. The
cold will damage the foliage
during the winter but in most
cases it will not affect next
springs bloom.
Evening star., 1960-12-04
Rose Shifts

Now is the time to plant roses
and to transplant those that
need moving. This can be done
without taking q ball Of earth
around the roots. Be sure to
cut the tops back to within an
inch or two Of the top Of the
mound.

Gift of Rifles

Ellis ABETH HVILLE, The

$50 tribal chiefs left Elisabeth
vile for home today without
the old Mauser rifles and am
m unition Premier Noise
Tshombe promised them.
Mr.. Thombes government
said the rifles were intended to
be symbol of the chiefs au-
thority, a custom established
long ago by the Congo's Bel
gian rulers. But some of the
chiefs got the idea they were
being armed to back up the
Premier's refusal-modified yes
terday-to let U. N. troops re-
place Belgian forces in Ka-
tanga.
There was also considerable
criticism that Belgian troops
brought the rifles to the gov
ernment Office yesterday for a
public presentation.
1t was learned today that the
guns and ammunition will be
sent to the chiefs later, a de-
livery less dramatic than a pub

Parfy0fficiaI

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 10
(AP).-The Mexican govern
ment last night clamped down
on communism's loudest voice
in the country, world famed
muralist David Alfaro Siquei-
roS. Co..
The artist, who was elected
secretary general Of the Mex
lean Communist Party three
months ago, was arrested while
police were beating down an
other leftist-led demonstration
by 800 teachers college stu
dents and others in downtown
Mexico City.
Police said Mr.. Siqueiros
spoke at the college just be-
fore the demonstration, which
had been banned by the po-
lice. An unofficial source said
officers tried to arrest him ear
lier in the day but he eluded
them.
He finally was found at the
home of a leftist friend, Art
collector DR.. Alvar Garlic Gil,
who was arrested with him.
Wife Calls Newspaper
Newsmen first learned of the
arrest when the artists wife,
Angelina Arenal. also a mill
tant Communist, called a local
newspaper. She said she did
not know where her husband
had been taken.
Police then confirmed that
Mr.. Siqueiros was at headquar-
ters for questioning" He can
be detained thus for u hours
without formal charges.
The artists arrest pointed up
new and Sterner government
attitude toward subversive ac-
tivities. 1t seemed designed to
counter misgivings created by
President Adolfo Lopez Mateos

government belonged Ito the
