THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, [THURSDAY, MARCH 4th, 1937 Gardening Bv GORDON L. SMITH ARTICLE NO. 2 Informal planting, say the experts, is tbe most suitable for the average flower garden. True, it is possible with very large grounds and skilled help to do something with straight, dignified rows and borders. But in the average case planting irregularly in clumps will produce tbe most pleasing effects. Such planting too, will add an air of spaciousness, giving even tiny backyard gardens the appearance of much larger affairs. Set Off By A Lawn Where at all possible there should be a bit of a lawn in the foreground with an irregularly shaped bed of Cowers .trounc" the edges and, possibly, groups of shrubs set at the corners. Screening of harsh, straight lines about the house and drives with clumps of flowers and shrubs and an occasional trailing vine ever verandahs or garages will bring the whole thing together It will give the home the appearance of being part of the landscape rather than some rigid affair sticking out of the earth. Vegetable Rows Straight Vegetables on the other hand, should be planted in straight rows, But here, too, a little planning will he! p. There are a great many new varieties now available in Canada and by the liber;.1 uso of some of these newer things, and by adopting the rule to make at least three sowings of each variety a week or ten days apart, production can be - materially increased. The big advantage of the vegetable garden right at the door is freshness, but to get full value in this respect it is important to have a new supply coming along frequently. Therefore, the modern gardener instead of planting all his peas, lettuce, or carrots on the same day, puts some in the first week and more a little later. Turpentine Shortage Twenty years ago the vast londs of the Carolinas Georgias, Alabama and Florida produced millions of gallons of turpentine from their slash-pine forests. In an ignorant effort to prevent fires the forest owners burned over thfi land year after year destroying not only all inl'amabk debris but the yiuug tiers as *eil Tl e m ;vitaDle shortage of >:..v methods of refining the slash-pine seat'h for substitutes, ?nd scient'.<i;s so n perflated the various aiconol-base pain;s now in general use Modern developments in t'.e methods of efining the slash-pine 'ts demand for papergirl1 thiih tile sup-p-ly The Government, therefore is loans to the stricken South-States, and re afforestation is being taken scientifically in hand. In a few years' time, experts predict, pulp, to the value of 100,000,-000 dollars will be produced by the foi\st lands that once produced the nation's turpentine.

Judge McKay believes there is no substitute for family worship in the home. No adult need have qualms about memorizing and reciting the golden texts. Personal evangelism is most important to a young Christian. It is his opinion that a young Chrisian cannot grow sturdy in religion until he has experienced personal evangelism. He spoke also favourably of a tithing -- the se'ting as'de of a spiritual offering at regular times -- and described the practice as making for a co-partnership with Cod which had ought to be established at an early age.

J Exodus of 150.000 Worst of This Age Canadian Doctor Describes Horrors of Malaga Evacuation VALENCIA.--Dr. Norman Bethune, of Montreal, recently described the flight of 150,000 men, women and children from Malaga as "the most terrible evacuation of a city in modern times." Malaga, Southern Span.„a seaport, was captured February S by the insurgents in the Spanish Civil War. Dr. Bethune, head of the Spanish-American Blood Transfusion Institute, said he witnessed'the evacuation during a trip from Barcelona with a truck-load of refrigerated Blood for transfusions. "Imagine 150,000 men, women and children setting out for safety to a town situated more than 100 miles away with only one road to take on a journey requiring five days and five nights at least." he said. "There was no food to be found in the villages and there was no trains or buses to transport them "They staggered and stumbled, with cut and bruised feet, along the white flint road while the Fascists (insurgents) bombed them from the air and from the sea. "There were thousands 0 children. "We counted at least 5,000 under 10 years of age, at least 1,000 of them barefoot and many clad inly in single garments. Become Dense Stream "The incessant stream of peoph became so dense we barely could force our cars through t.i m. "We met so many distressed women and children we decided to turn back and start transporting the worst cas"s to safety. "Bu: it was difficult to choose which "Our car was beseiged by a mob of frantic mothers and fathers who, with tired, outstretched arms, held up to us their children with their faces swollen and congested by four days of sun and dust. "How could we choose between a child dying of dysentery and a mother stolidly watching us with great sunken eyes, carrying against her open breast her child born on the road two days before? "Many old people simply gave up the struggle and laid down beside the road to wait for death. "We first decided to take only children and others. Then the separation of fathers and children, husbands and wives became too cruel to bear. We finished by transporting to Almeria the families with the largest number of children and children without par- "On the evening of the 12th, when the little seaport of Almeria. was com- thought they had reached a hi,en "01 safety, German and Italian airplanes dropped 10 bombs in the very centre of town where efugees were sleeping huddled so closely together on the main street that an automobile could pass only with great difficulty. "After the planes passed I picked up three dead children from the pavement where they had been standing in line waiting for a cup of preserved milk and a handful of dry bread, the only food some of them had for days. "The street was a shambles of dead and dying, lighted only by the orange glare of burning buildings. In the semi-darkness the moans of wounded children and the shrieks of agonized mothers rose in a massed cry h'^her and higher to a pitch of intolerable Women Secretaries Cramp Rosses' Style NEW ORLEANS -- Men soon may turn the tables and replace women as secretaries -- because "a lot of bosses like to swear around the office." Robert Hoppock, assistant director of the National Occupational Conference, told the conference that bosses "don't want women stenographers or secretaries to cramp their style." "It's getting increasingly harder in many cities to find male secretaries and stenographers." Hoppock added.
