Letter to the Editor

Realizing more every year
that Lexington needs a NUM-
cipal swimming pool, why can't
we bring this to a realization
and give the young people of the
town a place to swim?
I have seen the boys and girls
go outside Lexington for this
form of recreation they should be
able to obtain in their own town.
When a party comes to Green
wood as they do every night or
two, they enjoy a swim in our
municipal pool at small cost,
but they spend more money for
food and cold drinks.
It would be an easy matter to
get the backing Of the vari-
Gus civic clubs and put this pro-
ject over in Lexington. I feel
that the majority of good people
are interested in this matter
and 1 know parents will endorse
it. So what are we waiting for?

New telephone books are really
Gifted.

Lexington moved up quite a
notch in its new telephone direct
cries issued recently, when all
of the subscribers names APP
peared with their street addresses
following listing.
The new books furnish a
ready reference for more than
telephone calls, also many sub
scribers have found out where
they live.
It is quite proper that Lex
ington has moved into the city
class, and its fine and efficient
telephone service is one feature
all are proud to boast about.
We still are, Editor.

Baxter makes own cooling sys-
tenn.
E. N. Baxter of the Lexing-
ton Wagon and Blacksmith Com
pany got tired of the heat wave
and decided to make an attic
fan that he will place in his
home in West End. The machine
is complete in every detail and
Mr.. Baxter showed quite a bit
of ingenuity in building the fan
at one-third of the cost of a new
one. He used a one-quarter
horsepower electric motor, but
made the pulley and blades with
all connections.
It really stirs up a breeze when
it gets underway.

You re Asking

Owe need some quick color In
the front yard. Is there any flower
we can plant which will be in bloom
in about six weeks?
A.-The fastest growing and
blooming annual is Portulaca or
old fashioned Moss Rose. This
little plant thrives in a hot, dry
location. 1t will bloom in about IS
to 40 days after seeding.
Owe have an engineers draw
ing of our property. How can we
decide where to locate our new
house? '#-.
A.-Cut a piece of paper in scale,
just the shape of your house. Move
this around on the engineers draw
ing until you find the best location
in regard to terrain, drainage,
views and trees.
Q. My young flower plants and
plants in the garden such as straw
berries and beans are being dam
aged by snails, slugs and pillbugs.,
What will kill these creatures +?
A. Metaldehyde bait, commercial
ly prepared, can be used. Read the
small label, as this material is
generally sold under a trade name
which is different. Distribute bait
in the late evening or early MORN
ing, applying all to the ground
around the base of plants.
