The Lions are anxious for a liberal public patronage. And the public work the organization is doing with the proceeds would certainly seem to justify that hope. The profits that com* 1 from the affair will be used to pay for materials th? Lions u<e in developing and beautifying Liberty Park. Junior High Opens Football Season Friday Afternoon. After seeing an interest in football on the part of some of the youngest students and their fathers, it was decided to attempt to haw a 7th and Bth grade team in North Liberty this fall.

A NEW ANNUAL GROUND COVER \ ' 1..,., >-%.< bright red Polka Dotfv) in the center of sin 'e w 'te flowers distinguish this nivide or vinca from othus. Ikes r. e the reason for its name. Low growing, wide spreaumg plants make it a “natural" for extensive ground cover use. Ground cover plants with attractive flowers arc net common. Thals why the All-America Selections bronze medal winner Polka Dot. a procumbent vinca or myrtle, will prove to he so popular. It's easy to grow from seeds, performs equally well when planted in full sun or light shade, is not fussy about soil, and plants form such solid mats that weeds cease to be a problem. Also, since it's an annual and not a perennial, it can be used in areas such as where you plan paving for another year but need a ground cover for just this one year. The little plants grow' straight upward to a 3 inch height. Then they grow outward, creeping gradually until each plant forms a mat, 2 feet across. Thus a spacing closer than 2 feet will result in a complete covering of the area with glossy, dark green leaves. , Seeming to lie flat on top of the foilage are the flowers —• single, white with bright red "eyes’’. Sometimes so many are open at once that the green foliage is hardly noticeable. The characteristics described make Polka Dot not only a desifc able ground cover but useful in window boxes, hanging baskets, rock garden* and as a wide edging for a path, driveway or hws area.
