GARDEN CLUB MAKES ARRANGEMENTS FOR SEASONAL PROJECTS In the June meeting of the McHenry Garden club the George Krickl home on Richmond road, members gave special attention to flowers arranging. Mrs. George Johnson and Mrs. Carroll Dietle received first and second prizes, respectively, for arranging perfect blooms in good taste. Beautifying the home and the countryside is a goal set by the local club. Members spend many hours planning, planting and maintaining their gardens and community projects. When flowers bloom and fruits and vegetables ripen, these members show and share the beauty of their effort with ail who wish to enjoy it. Specifically, tije club takes pride in the landscaping on the library grounds and the work is directed by Mrs. J. J. Gruenfeld. Like all other folks about the country who belong to garden clubs, the McHenry members encourage constructive effort toward beautifying their cities and roadsides. It is generally believed that the effort it takes to be ugly is comparable to that which it takes to be nice; the like must be true about being constructive and destructive. Consequently, it is a more pleasant experience to meet with a nice situation than an ugly one because no one is hurt. The club expended about $200, flus effort, to create a nice situaion on the library grounds but someone else expended a comparable effort in the direction of destruction, to the sorrow of club members. It is certain that those who damaged the iron trim on the building and threw around fencing, etc., about the grounds have powerful energy which, no doubt, is capable of creating a comparable measure of beauty in and about the McHenry community. The club prays that ugliness leaves the hearts of these souls and is replaced with more love -- more love for beauty.. To further the quest for beauty, the club has,, by their representative Mrs. George Johnson, sent flats of annuals to the Downey hospital for veterans that they may beautify their grounds. Ed. Hssck and John Perry are going to the State Conservation school to learn more about beauty in nature and how to bring it home and preserve it. On July 11, at Grayslake, the McHenry Garden club yvill' show a table arrangement depicting "Dignity and Aspiration of Man," and on Aug. 17 & 18, they will set a "Buffet in the Garden" table at the Wonder Lake Garden club's flower shop. After business, Mrs. Krickl served refreshments. The next regular meeting of the club will take place on July 30 at the Pistakee Bay home of Mary Burdahl. O'Brien-Useman Vows Exchanged St..
