County College Offers Student Housing Service s Mother's day show in the Show Dome of the Mitchell Park Horticultural conservatory in Milwaukee Rain Fails To Halt Milwaukee Pilgrimage (by Father Wm. (). Manner) The Whispering Oaks Garden club made a pilgrimage to several places in and about Milwaukee June 17. They were on the road by 8:15 in George's bus with George at the wheel. Our f irst s top was the Mit­ chell Park Horticultural conservatory, it is one of the tip-top things to see in Milwaukee, that amazing city, that loses so much of i ts pull bv being too close to Chciago The conservatory consists of three large glass domes with many a smart architectural refinement that gives three rare collections to thousands of people each year. There is a Tehiporate Dome that changes its show six times a year«according to season. There is an Arid Dome that pays attention to the growing things o! our southwest and reminded me of the world famous desert garden at the Huntington Gardens m San Marino. Calif., which I described in the Plaindealer Feb. 8. 1974. Because we once lived in Florida for eight years I was drawn to the Tropical Dome. Here were displays of that ubiquitous plant, the orchid, that shows up in some form or other from nearly pole to pole. Here were Royal Poinciana, indoors in Milwaukee that set Florida and the Caribbean Islands aflame each spring in radiant rows of reds Here were giant Impatiens t would ydu believe Balsam family) that my sexton weeded from the church yard in Calliaqua on St. Vincent's in the Caribbean, because said he. "N'ulfin but weeds'" There were giant tree ferns. chenelle plants, Kaffir lilies and a great Kopak tree, like the one Mrs. Hanner planted at St. Stephen's. Miami, in memory of my mother which stole a whole court yard:- There was a Christmas palm like the one that was in the patio of the old rectory in Miami that Father Soper planted. There were Spathafilum. which I Wanted to call Calla Lilies and Rose wouldn't let me. There was the Malax Nepanthe. or Pitcher plant that eats insects. But 1 found no Paratus Palm with its skinny, long, lean trunk and its feet wet in a marsh and its tiny clump of fronds high, high abo\e your head. * Over in the lobby the day school from the Elm Grove Methodist day camp had come to spend the day--they having been rained out. They were singing a sort of childish hymn that advised the devil to go sit on a tack--VOl'CH!" Then we climbed back in the bus and Geofge took us through a downpour .to Whitnall park, where we "found a shelter from the rain and had our picnic lunch, the while observing youngsters with a cache of beer making way to the private of the shelter as we left. It was too wet to do Whitnall- one ot our objectives-so we did the great Milwaukee War Memorial/ in the heart of the city on the Lake The lake was so hidden by mist we had the fun of hearing the moaning f6g horn, which must have .been'so lugubrious because it had seen the drawings in the Memorial's Art gallery. Alter this we went to a remarkable plant market which 1 shall call Bill and Josephine»s. They knew they were to have a bus load and had prepared coffee and cookies for us. It was our second picnic. George opened up the luggage compartment on the bus where \we stowed our plant purchases /They came through just fine. I had been dreading having to have plants between my knees and feet on the way home. (1 have been out with this club before> And then last of all, the Garden club's auxiliary was with them. We are their mascots and abetters, the faithful suffering husbands of gardening wives: Chris Hen driks, Elmer Warner, Jim Fouse. Jack Gibbs. Ernie Rothert. Elmer Bauer and yours truly. The day was arranged by Pauline Forbes, who is our Sol Horak and makes plans and changes them, like a good umpire when it rains. Pretty snappy day it was - let's do something as much fun again. Thanks. Pauline! KIWI A kiwi fruit is the size and shape of an egg. but has a light brown, furry skin A native of China, it is really a Chinese gooseberry.

MCC does not have on-campus living facilities, therefore, due to the request of out-of district students, the College has created a student housing service. The college has /Contacted different agencies and in­ dividuals within the immedaite area of the campus and has listings of rooms, apartments, houses and "roommates wanted" available to the student. Most MCC students Something new for the beach is a beach bag that is quite large and has a strap for the shoulder. I t can be opened up to make a fair s ized beach mat. Many women who have dif­ ferent measurements for shoulders and hips are f ind­ ing shops where tops and bottoms for bikinis or for pants suits can be bought as separates. In this way no al tering is necessary. Correct Fishing is less cruel than hunting. The amateur never has to explain that he thought his companion was a fish.
