.4 SUMMERLESS SUMMER

We've had a wide variety of weather around Plymouth for the first five months of this year, and w e're far enough along In Jan e to wonder if there’s going to be enough ^ 1 old* time hot w eathff to go around. Practically every p a rt of the cotintry la complaining of backward vegetation, killing frosts having been reported in several sections as late as the first week In June.

I t may be th at some of our readers now recall the prediction made by a Chicago man early last fall th at the year 19:16 would be "u year without a summer." Possibly they smiled at such an assertion when they read it. yet today there are many i>eoplc iu the mood to believe th at the Chicago w eather prophet either knew what be was talking about or is one of the best guessers the world has ever known.

We have soon no reports .if short 4Top yields .s«>\far. though it is a little early to learn conditions throughout tile cm iitry as a whole. Rut we do know that if everythlug matures and we get the la.st of it Jinrve.sted before the re tu rn .o f frost and freeze we’ve got to "step .some.’’

SAVE $100 NOWImprovements are now being installed in Plymouth Gardens and the pre-development prices will close after June 20, all unsold residential lots increasing $100 in price.

The improvement program is pretentious aud when fully completed Plymouth Gardena; will be conceded the finest bomeoite location south of Grand River.

Improvements include curbed and graveled streets, five-foot sidewalks, now under construction, white way ornamental lights, beautiful parkways and shade trees, sewer laterals, water, gas and electricity, all guaranteed and without cost to the lot owner.

Search Wayne county from the W ashtenaw border to Oakland, and you will find no more na tu ra l beauty tban th a t w hid i completely surrounds Plymouth Gardens. And* don’t overlook the fact that beauty .ALW.WS creates greater values in real estate. ,

As an investment or as a homesite, Plymouth Gardens stands head and shoulders over the ordinary subdivision. Prove this to yourself—come out to the property and investigate—but do it before the price increase goes into effect.

The comblnadOQ of boy and hatchet has a mythical potency which la anything but reassuring to trees, especially those of the cherry family. But when you take the boy without the hatchet—or wlUi a hatchet which he has been taught to use with dlKcrlmi- nation—and when you foster his love of nature and train him in the ways of conaervation, then you turn him into a valuable force of friendship and helpfulness toward the vanishing forests. And tills is what has happened to the boy scouts, according to the Boy Scoot Weekly Bulletin. As we read:

Forestatlon work in many states calls attention to the public spirit of boy scout troops. In New York 85,000 trees were planted last year through their efforts. Forty-Bve thousand of these, Alexander MacDonald, conser-

] vatloo commissioner, reports to the 1 national scout office, were planted in t scoot forests. The remaining 40.000 j were placed elsewiiere, in co-operation ! with the New York State Forestry as- ' soclatlon.! Thirty thousand registered boy

scout forest guides are co-operating with Pennsylvania's departm ent of forests and waters, according to R. Y. Stuart, secretary. They post fire warnings. patrol the woods and Sght fires as far as permitted by the legal sixteen-year age limitation. The troops In Pennsylvania planted 44,200 trees last year. Considerable other work wds done by scouts of which the departm ent had no record| U was sa id

From M a s^ h u s e tts comes acknowledgment of the p lan ting 'last year of 6,500 trees by scouts. The boys also assisted in extinguishing forest fires and in fighting the blister rust.

And another chronicle tells us that birds as well as trees are "the special wards of scoutdom," and th at “a building boom In blrdtown" each spring is one of the happy consequences of the boys' tree-planting actlvlUee. 'Moreover:

In every p art of the country boy scouts have tree-planting and refor- M tatlon projects under way. Two of the largest programs are reaching completion a t Macon. Ga., and Memphis, Tenn. Camp sites of several boodred acres are being planted.

Flowers, shrubs and vines have special roles in the planting project of Logan, Utah. Scouts have pledged their help in every phase of this campaign. Thousands of poplars, tlie tree that Utah made famous, are to be put in Lpgan canyon. In the town all yards are to be cleuned. The boys win clean up their own gardens and help widows, sick people or other

( persons who have difficulty In mao- aging alone the work on their premises.—Literary Digest.

Not only the gardens of Montesuma but the picture writing of his subjects prove the ancient Mexicans to have been great horticulturists. Their descendants still use their complex system of ^ ta n ic a l names, a system which conveys information as to quail- ties, characteristics and habitat of many plants.

W ilson'J'openoe, formerly of the United States Department of .Agriculture. in a paper on ''Pliiiits of .\ttec Picture W riting." gives a long list of botanical figures used In Aztec hiero- ^>l>hlc8. • The flower symbol recurs constantly in all sorts of combinations as a place name. Maize, an important feature In all Indian life, appears frequently. along with the sweet potato, the black bean, the chefry. plum, avocado and various less-known native fruits. Most interesting is a combination of the water sign with the conventionalized sign for cultivated ground, meaning "place w lierj the land is.irrigated." The fam iliar desert features, the yucca, the cactus and the mesqulte, are ail represented, but the gem of Mr. Popenoe’s collection Is the picture symbol which, directly translated, means "dea pepper," a fitting name for the biting, red-hot pepper of the Somhwest.

The floating gardens of Mexico City, so famous during the conquest, may ftUI be considered one of the best.ex- preaslons of the native horticultural a r t Willow trees are planted In the shallow water of Lake Xochlmllco In

been put is to show tlu* rate of flow of bl4>od In the veins. The method adopted is to put tlie animal used in tlie experiment Into a lead box with one foot sticking out of a hol&in the side.

U sed to D ine W Hh D ukesA few years ago Victor Tcliebotareff

was a m aster of 22,000 acres, had 12 to 16 wolf hounds and had a thousand men and women emploj'ed on ids estates. Then be was Count Victor Tebebotareff, captain of the most famous regiment in~the world, the White hussars of Russia, the czar's own household regiment. Today as Victor "Tareff" he is riding master of a Detroit hunt club. A dozen years ago Tareff frequently dined with the czar and the grand dukes, and Ids family was one of the wealthiest In Iliissin. Seven years ag«i he fled from Russia In rags witli what ,vus left of his fortune hidden in a cake of soap, and In a loaf of bre.nd a great dlanmnd-ser badge once given him hy the czar.

“ THE AWAKENING”

Capadt7 attendance as early as the th ird n i ^ t of the twelYe-nisht engage* ment of the fifth annual presentation of The Awakening, by Shaduklam Grotto, a t the Michigan State F a ir Oronnds. Jane Idth through 30th, Is predicted by Dr. Gordon W. Hill, monach. and tUirl Newberry, general director. This is due to two reasons— the heury advance .sale of tickets and the fact t l i i t Tlie Awakening engagement is for twelve nights only, with absolutely no chance of an extension. Both Dr. Hill and Director Newberry believe ic only fair to the large nam* her of out-of-town patrons of The Awakening to give notice of this condition so that they luay plan accordingly and atteiKl as early a performance of The Awakening as possible, und arrive as early as possible a t w hatever performance they plan to attend. I t has l>eeii the history of past engagements th at the attendance increases with each performance, so, in a double .«ense the old saying applies to this year's Awakening—“Come early to avoid the crowd."

The 192« Aw

features which in previous years have established the d ro tto showas one of the big amusement enter* prises of tbe world. Many new features have been added. W ith Its fireworks, its historical pageantry. Its ballet and terpslcherean numbers, Its auto polo, its clrcus;acts and Its band concerts by Cervone, the current edition of The Awakening surpasses tbe raiiieii "three ring circus" by 100 per cviit in entertainment value alone, while it lias Che still fu rth e r additional meric of being a patriotic, civic and fruteniul ux]xisitum and enter- l)tise.

Free parking space for automobiles has (teen arranged for this year. This, also, puts a premium on early arrival a t any evenings j>erformance. Per- forniiiDce scan.s ut 8:00 o'clock sharp.

ODD FELLOW NOTES

Again we have tbe privilege of giving the Brothers, who are unable to attend the meetings, u little of what Is going on in their lodge.

Our sick list for some reason has jumped considerable, for quite a lot of

ire reported sick, and

our visiting committee has a lot of visiting to do in the next week.

Again we have tbe chance to con- grufulate Bro. Fred Wagensebutz on his ability as a degree captain, for the way the th ird degree was conferred. last'Tuesday evening. I t certainly is great to set on the side lines und .see the younger members taking (uirt in the work.

The tliird degree being tbe last degree that is conferred on a candidate Jiere in our order, i t is generally fol- lowetl by a Jiineh. ISo last Tuesday evening afte r the work and a few ri*- iiiarks from our new Brothers, every- laxly jnuriieyed dow-u to the dining room, where the committee in charge, who. by the way. were. Bros. J. Traey. Ivan Gray. George Ridley and >U1. Unison, set the Brothers down to oue of the finest lunches ever put on by any committee. And to show our aiiiireciatioii everything disappeared ill a short-time.

Till* degree captains held a meeting after lodge and de«-ided to get all of the cuudldates who have not finished their work ami have them finish, so they can s ta rt the lag class of candi- ilates that Is waiting. All you members who are on the different teams.

turn out next week and give your captain your support.

The attendance was about the same as hist week. Perhaps if tbe fishing .sea.son was not so close., we woul^ have a larger attendance. I HOSIERY

A picture that will make a hundred million people laugh and sigh Is the o rd er!). W. Griffith gare himself when lie produced ’•Sally of the Sawdust.” his new classic of comedy which will 1k‘ shown a t the Penniman Allen theatre. Saturday. June 19.

So perfectly did he fill the order that alr«'«dy this United Artists Cori>ora- tloii release Is recognized by critics and competent experts as one of the great screen achievemeuts. ranking in entertainment power with bis historic ■’B irth of a Nation” and "Way Down East."

I.aughter rules it throughout, ranging from smiling drolleries to the heartiest outbursts of ringing mirth.

And running amid the higher peaks of gaiety is a s.rmpathetie story of lovable liumuus very much beset'at times \8ith the minor problems such us lack of money, a free for all circus fight, lliglit to richer Imrvests on a blind-bag- gage of a railroad car and other ruefnl troubles.

A circus waif and her guardian, as lovable a scalawag as ever picked a m^-essary pocket, a re the principal characters, with love abounding and adventures galore.

Carrol Heuip.sler and W. S. Fields have made the parts historic among screen portrayals. Fields Is new* to the screen, but with long .stage training tiiat lias led him to stardom in the famous Ziegfeld "FolHes." The work! of Miss Dempster is be.voml anything j she 1ms roulim l in the past, bringing; her to the circle of the really great scr»*eu actresses of the day.

The cast is rich in new faces and talent, including Alfretl Lunt, headliner In Broadway successes; Glenn

AtKlers, Effie Shannon, Erville Alderson and supporting company of many thousands. The resources of a circus with Its menagerie and side-shows, a carnival, beautiful homes, have contributed a rich variety of scenes greater than Griffith has offered In any of his recent works.

The story is one of the most entertaining tales ever filmed, alive with joy and gaiety throughout, tinged with pathos bbt never for an instant heavy In its tread, and galloping to a close that i.s one of the happiest most exciting and most satisfying scenes ever ofleriHl iu picture.®.

"Sally of the Sawdust" is one of Griffith's llnest pl
