PAGE EIGHT T THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER TAKE TIME TO “BURNISH UP" | Just a ‘Few Dollars and a Little Labor Can Frequently Work Wonders Around House. Many a man is keenly concerned about his personal appearance before the world, and yet perhaps a bit neg- ligent in o' sense over both the out- ward and the inward aspect of his home or estate. 'This, however, Is the season when everyone, even those who may be, considered among the careless, ‘turns a thought toward a h{t of “b_nrqgshlng up” around the home, i [ ;;Thls thought‘of ‘hewness that is born when the pussy willows are be- gloning to carry fheir balls of fuzzy -greenneéss, when' ‘the first ‘robin is heard on the back fence, may even go so far as to evolve plans for a complete overhauling of the spot one calls home. Be it remembered, however, that a great deal may be done oftentimes for a small outlay of money. A few dollars invested in paint, a necessary board or two, a small assortment of shrubbery, coupled up to a bit of varnish, wall paper, etc., may go a long ways toward creating a more wholesome, cheery aspect whether one views his possessions from the ex- terior or the interior. FLOWERS FOR GARDEN WALL Excellent Effect Can Be Attained by . the Addition of Plants That Droop or Trail. No matter how very small the plece of ground attached to the house may be, it always has possibilities of at- tractiveness. All that is needed Is a bit of thought, of work, and of loving care to make the tiniest garden a joy throughout the summer. In the little garden may be raised gay flowers to decorate the living rooms. An unusual and beautiful little gar- den inclosed on three sides by a gray stone wall (four feet high) has ac- quired an added loveliness by flowers being planted in the crevices of the stones. Plants that droop or trail, and that do not root deeply are best for this kind of planting. Gay, old-fash- joned petunias, sweet alyssum, blue ageratum, ‘wild columbine, verbena, forget-me-not, portulaca —with its rose-like flower—and Kenilworth vy with its falry-like pink blos$oms will transform the commonplace stone wall into a place of magic and witch- ery. Use for “Scrapped” Warships. * Instend of entirely scrapping 12 of the warships that have to be de- stroyed in accordance with the terms of the armament, conference, Te- cently held at Washington, it is pro- posed to turn them to profitable use by taking them to Los Angeles and sinking them so as to form an ex- tension to th> San Pedro breakwater. It is claimed that in this way shelter would be provided there for eight ad- ditional active battleships.- -Popuiur Mechanles Magnzine. MEDALS ASKED FOR LIVE SAVER ' Application has been made to the ‘natlonal court of honor for a life-sav- ing medal to be awarded to Eugene McGlone, a student of Centenary col- lege at Shreveport, La., who saved the Iife of Sam Brand at the risk of his own in February last. The two boys were on a raft which broke, letting them down into the water. McGlone could swim, but Brand could not. Me- Glone pushed a log to hiw f7iend and towed him to shore. T0 DECORATE GRAVES A compittee of the Ralph Gracie post of 'the American Legion in charge of decoration of graves ot all ex-service men in the two local cemeteries seeks a public contribu- tion to finance this project. This was the actiom taken last year and a sufficient sum was realized. Ap- proximately $100 is needed to dec- orate the graves appropriately. Contributions may be sent to the} Legion post or to the Pioneer office.. Checks should be made payable to} the Ralph Gracie post. The list of contributors will be published from day to day as the fund increases. i So far only the following cone tributions have been received. I F. C. Montague... .$1.00 B. L.
