LARMER, REPRESENTATIVES Office Telephone No. 744 Daily Times FLOWER LOVERS HEARD LECTURE Interesting Address on "Rock Gardens" Heard Last Night In the Musical Chambers on Monday evening a small, but very appreciative gathering listened to a most interesting lecture on "Rock Gardens" given by John F, Clark, lecturer in Horticulture for the De partment of Agriculture, The ar- vangements were made by the Bow- manville Horticultural Soctety, Mr, I. H, Dustan, in the chair, reviewed the progress of the society for the past vear, which was very satisfac~ tory, he urged the members to great er activity for 1932, "We should be very enthusiastic and have the op- timism of the man who bought something of a Jew and expected to sell it 10 a Seotchamn at a proht, said, I'he speaker Mr, Gould, and marks expres having the pri local "There 1s a very large field of over 300 societies," he said, "starting from Fort William and extending over the greater part of Ontario would take two years to visit them all," He explained that the sum of $2000 grant for aiding the societies, which was feared | would be discontinued, would stand | for another year, and he appealed to his listeners to show their grat- itude by more thought to public planting, and for the Society to co- operate with the schools and offi- cials of all public buildings in ther efforts to encourage the beatuifving | of these premises. "No matter how | mall the member hip of a society is," he said, "they can make them- selves felt," The lecture was slides, and the gathering was taken for a little trip through the moun tains showing the native habitant from where most perennial plants for Rock Gardens are first gathered and the condit studied, 'These re called Alpine plants, but they come from all over the world and if success is to be met m their cul- tivation they,must be given the set- ting that nature intended them to have, Rock Gardens, "should be planted hs of small, but lavish qualities, They should be 95 per cent perennials and hardy in the extreme, Geraniums and hot house plants must avoided, A few evergreens of the drawf var- iety should not be forgotten, so as to give a good appearance in winter, A small pool may be included which should contain gold fash, clams and snails, Drainage is most important and therefore the garden must be elevated, also the foundation should be constructed of shale, old bricks, lumps of cement or stone, limestone being the best because it holds. the moisture and grit should be incor- porated in the soil. It could be built on any kind of sloping back and should never have a set design, Irregularities must predominate to get the natural effect. The size of the plot should regulate the size of the stones for the rockery., Avoid large ones in a small plot, Do, not forget to let the flowers be the dominating featuré, Break up the cluster, planting them in different places. Most perenials spread rap- idly, as nature runs frantic in order to produce seed and any that lends interest to the garden should be planted. 'The nursery is often blam- ed for sickly plants, when the cause due to carelessness in making the pocket and planting. Any plant of .a dwarf variety you see in the nursery, you are fairly safe in plant- ing in vour rockery," Mr, Clark concluded with the re- marks that each one must he re- sible for the individuality built into the garden and that if roses are to he seen from the window they must be planted 'From the showed many gardens, the Carry away | | I he itroduced by his opening re- pleasure in of visiting the his societ and illustrated by Is 18 lantern slides, which different designs audience could a mental pict of easily ure of what FUNERAL AMBULAN AND SERVICE Oshawa Burial Co.

The first period was not produc- tive of much excitement, Five minutes after the start Oke scor- ed on a pass from Williams and a short time after Chappell found the Bowmanville net from a face- off, This session endeq 1-1, In the second the bovs warmed up to a faster pace and both sides played better hockey, heavier checking and better stick-hand- ling being displayed.

"Mussolini 1s but a child" tart ly interrupted Hon, Ernest La pointe, former Minister of Justice, to cap one of the most exciting controversies of the session, The result of the Premier's edict was that the Woodgworth moderate the law's rigors against unlawful associations, approved by the Commons in 1926, 1927, 1928, 1929 and 1930, only .to be killed in the upper Chamber, was beaten in recorded division on the Issue of whether it should get first reading by 72 votes to 49, All the Progres- sive and Labor members voted solidly with the Liberals, It was the first time in a decade or more that a measure has been refused at least admittance to | House consideration, and 11s ab | solute refusal of admittance by the Prime Minister was no doubt die tated out of consideration for re Jackson edged in a counter long shot from centre-ice, ney in goal appeared not to see it coming.

'The speaker went on to give detailed hgures of the expenditures of the board from 928 to 1931 dealing with Publie and Vocational expenditure that the total for 1028, $313613.00; 1929, 193), $385,535.50 and 1931, 00, showing that the expenditures of the | riser | stated were ot he ation not rately Collegiat the School these $337,650 had re but thes hallow call on the till 1 Board of lducation I'rue there were Alderman Bodd due to grants the b r | eouneil, so that the moti Setting Up a Reserve Alderman B xplained t the city was up 10,000 this year to take car $20.000 of whic ed luce their y have y | rd to een spendin 1] setting A reserve which w direct re cmergencies, rve for matter rested with a contingent resc { lief, The whole | what amount in the cou was to collect, Wher ti when capitol expenditure abandoned direct relief will be given, serted the taxes able the comes must be to emphatic exception to the statement of Trustee Annis that the | debt of Board of Lducat the teachers of the city was. just important as the debenture debt of the city, Alderman Boddy asserted that it was a very unbusing statement on the part of the | The credit of the city was the most essential factors in cient city government he said, The council was endeavoring to main tain the credit of the city and try ing to show the banks that such wa their intention, It was shown that | drains on the ing the last year had countd or indigent patients, who | were given care at the hospital, The | estimates struck for this particular | department had not reached the fig ures which was expended, while the | expenses the men's hostel had also been over the estimated figure Have Not Been Dictating "The Board. of Education say the | council have been dictating to them" said Alderman Boddy, "But we have never actually dictated and have only followed out the line of action warranted by present conditions," "I'he City Council would have fallen down if it had not taken the stand it did with regard to the Board of Education," he continued, If the Board of Education can't realize how hard it is to collect the taxes they should try it themselves," the "speaker asserted emphatically, "If the courts give the Board of | ( | Education $16,000, then 1 say the whole municipal system has become k obsolete," If such game to pass, Alderman Boddy stated the City Council would only become collectors and there was no saying where it would | end if the city did not get controy of the expenditures of civic bodies. There should be a change so that the City Council would have abso- lute control of all expenditures, the speaker asserted amid applause, In conclusion, Alderman Boddy stated, that the City Council might haye reduced the tax rate to 43 mills, but did not follow that pro- ceedure because they were endcay oring to maintain the credit of th city, The gross debt of the city was over $4,000,000, he said, and if any other person in the same position had considered their position they would have stopped to take stock of the situation as the City Council had done this year, At the conclusion of the méeting a motion proposed by FF.

Quite frequently, changes have to be made in an article before the public generally will accept it. Color, design, flavor-- those are some of the things the public has to be consulted about. Sometimes a product won't sell at all and simply has to be discon. tinued. As soon as people show that they welcome an article and as soon as all refinements and improvements have been added, then vou could hear the manufacturer say, if you could be in his office, "Now we can advertise." When you buy advertised goods, you may know they have gone through the experimental stages. You may be sure that the manufac. turer knows they are right and that he is willing to stake his reputa- tion on them. You may be confident that you are buying goods that have sold and that would continue to sell without any advertising at all. For advertising merely lets all the people know--now--what considerable numbers would find out by word of mouth ten years from now. Of course, advertising goes a step farther. Word of mouth hardly ever tells all the uses of a product. It often doesn't give the real reasons for its superiority. Advertising tells people all about a product and the numerous ways in which they can use it. Whatever you buy, therefore, let the advertisements be your guide. When the manufacturer says, 'Now we can advertise it," you know that you can safely say, "Now we can buy it." Toh get to be an Qntique Diy antique 2" "Oh, 1 just worms way up."
