Thompson of students of economic In her talk; Mrs. Kirke stressed] the fact that city beautification is one of the most important steps toward restoring prosperity, be- cause developmeut and industry follow people, and people go where they are attracted. “It won’t be long,” Mrs. Kirke said, “before one of you boys will be mayor of Key West, and oth- ers will be city councilmen, while others will hold official positions in this city. What sort of a city do you want to preside over? Now is the time to be planning and building the city you will be proud of to live in as men.” Marvin Thompson spoke of the rare trees and plants to be found on the Florida keys- and offered to supply young trees, plants and shrubs for beautification work in Key West. He also offered to sponsor a junior garden club at, 1 Tavernier, where he is now mak- ing his home. It was pointed out by the com- mittee that boys and girls can be of great help in this beautifica- tion program, they can root hibis- cus, crotons, bougainvilleas, and other cuttings which will help im- mensely in this work. Mrs. A, D. Luethi suggested the slogan, “Put every tin can to | work.” Miss Parker, chairman of the conservation committee asks for cuttings and rooted pieces of pur- ple bougainvilleas, poinsettia cut- tings, and seeds from all rare \ trees, also cuttings from white, pink and rose frangipannis. Miss Parker states that the co- operation of every man, woman, boy and girl is asked in support, of this intensive campaign for city-wide beautification. “Key; West, America’s beauty should be our aim, and would make a pleasing head to all our correspondence. Key West can be made America’s beauty spot, and it should be.” It was pointed out that Key West has plants and shrubs found nowhere else outside of nurseries and for which we would have to pay high prices were we to buy them. Here we have them, God given, and all we need do is to care for them, place them where they will attract most at- tention and sit back, watch them grow, and hear passing visitors admire them.
