'Autumn · seems to b~ just arriving for them, after the other leaves have fallen. Tht> planting done by the Wilmette Garden dub at the library last week under ·thr dirt>rtion of Mrs. Edward Sch~idenhelm, is part of a larger plan that the club has in mind for improving the library grounds. The rest is to be added later. All along the west side of the railroad where- thf" appearance is now rather desolate, elm trees are to be I plant~d. Mr. Orner has asked the Wil- Posters Announce Sale meter Garden clu_b to make suggestions on this planting and to confer with the Tree commission. The broad highway is a useful thing, but without trees it is not a thing of beauty. To repeat, do not ~iss the chrysanthemum shows.
