Nappanee Has Fine Gardens Nappanee had some beautiful I gardens to show Saturday. There were two outstanding ones, so the judges, Mrs. Joy Bourne and the editor picked two winners and divided the prize money for that category evenly between them. Edgar Ringenberg’s garden at 604 E. Van Buren was one of these. It is a formal garden with unusually fine roses, each labeled, and a beautiful lawn. Os unusual interest are the interesting shapes of the beds. Howard Penrose’s garden at 658 S. Nappanee St., was also a winner. On a fine lawn, it contains rows of petunias, roses, healthy yew bushes, a border of ageratum, and interesting corner groups with geranium, snap dragons, and marigolds. A particularly fine formal garden is Dean Geyer’s. It contains rows of pink and white petunias, roses, and mums. There is an attractive bird bath surrounded by petunias. In the back are some cannas. One of the most impressive gardens is the mass of zinnias Eldo Clawson, 657 W. Lincoln. He saves his zinnia seed each year and has a massive display. There is an interesting park arrangement on one end of his garden: The Bernard Uline garden, 622 E. Van Buren, has a beautiful display of red petunias. There is also a large variety of flowers, including unusually nice zinnias, Sweet William, and black eyed susans. The Harvey Bollman garden is massive. It combines an impressive florid display with a large vegetable garden. His zinnias are beautiful, and Mrs. Bourne spotted some ground cherries, and she says we haven’t lived until we taste a pie from those. The Winfred Pippen garden 852 E. Marion, is always lovely. Earlier in the year they have an exceptional display of iris. They have a fish pool, an interesting assortment of trees and shrubbery, including fruit trees, and a wild hawthorne. Their vegetable garden is in the back. The layout of their garden is well done and artistic, showing good planning* This garden received honorable mention. Other interesting gardens visited included Arlene Stouder’s zinnias in her garden and along her house and garage. Mrs. Anna Mae Sherman has an interesting border of bronze cannas along her drive. The First National Bank combines geranium and petunias for an artistic display, and the Nappanee Public Library borders its trees with a variety of petunias. CUB PACK 112 A slightly cool evening at the West side park on Friday, August 12 was the scene of the annual picnic for pack 112. A good turnout was present along with well filled baskets. Robert Hoffer at the barbecue grill turned out the hamburgers. Games played were as follows: Tug of war, sack race, running race, and Indiana wrestle. One award was given, a 1 year pin to Reggie Fisher. It was announced that regular meetings will start next month.

Last week's paper was another big one. Went away the weekend before and suddenly realized that on Sunday we had no news for the paper, nor any pictures. On Monday things started to come in, and everything finally workpd out. ★ ★ ★ The Pletcher chimes add a nice touch for Nappanee. Very tasteful. ★ ★ ★ Pepper, the dog,-has been fascinated by the guinea pig, who has been a house guest. They just sit and look at each other. Pepper is mighty grateful that someone was thoughtful enough to provide anew plaything. ★ ★ ★ We had no idea what to expect with our flower show. Were afraid it might be a big flop. Were very pleasantly surprised. ★ ★ ★ Tom Stoops is home visiting his folks. Had a short visit with him. He looks fine. Has had some interesting experiences on carrier duty. ★ ★ ★ The editor pulled another boner. One night a group of local boys were a last minute substitute to play basketball against the team on which Mike Niles played in the Jaycee tournament. The team, with such old friends as Tod Lehman, Dave McGrew, and Al Hand, needed all the support it could get in the first half. In the second, they closed the gap, and the editor began cheering loudly, even riding Mike Niles a little when he got his fourth foul. Turned out he was sitting right in back of Mike's mother. ★ ★ ★ The County Fair was a good one, but the publicity for it was extremely bad. It was hard for the little weeklies to get even the results of the various events. So if we left out your prize sheep or champion barrow, we're sorry. Did the best we could. ★ ★ ★ Some modern art we like. But the winner of the Best of Show at the Art Festival wouldn't have been our choice. That's what makes horse races. Football Official Talks To Kiwanis Bob Hepler, a Goshen attorney, was the speaker at Kiwanis Monday. For the past fifteen years he has been an official at football games, and for the last five he has been umpire for the Big Ten. Hepler, who looks upon this as a tremendous avocation, said that there are 37 men on the Big Ten staff of officials. There are in addition some 1,000 applications on file for the job. The average length of service in this capacity is 2214 years. He said that the officials must travel to the site of the game the day before and don’t tell anyone where they are going. They must be at the stadium IVz hours before game time. He said that, in the Big Ten, the team of officials is five men who work together in specialized capacities for the whole season. Mr. Hepler said that he was official during last year’s ArmyNotre Dame game, which he described as a tremendous spectacle. He said that there will be no important rule changes in college football this fall.

UNCLE EB from EBENEZER Says: DEAR MISTER EDITOR: I was reading this piece in the papers where the U.S. Department of Labor come out with anew book called “The dictionary of Occupational Titles.” This piece said the book listed more than 36,000 kinds of jobs fer earning a living today in the United States. The piece went on to say the Labor Department had found about 6,000 jobs that was brand new on account of the new kind of things they was making ana selling these days. But they found about 7,000 kinds of jobs that wasn’t being done no more. I reported these items to the fellers at the country store Saturday night and Ed Doolittle was of the opinion they probable left out one way people was working to git a living. He said he had saw a piece where they made a survey some place in California that showed folks on relief in some cases spend about 40 hours a week gitting their benefits. They was working applying fer benefits, standing in lines, talking to welfare workers, fililng out forms and going from one place to another fer free servics of diffrent kinds. Ed said this piece said in a heap of cases these folks was working harder not working than they would be working. Zeke Grubb reported he was glad to git this information and if the worst come to the worst he aimed to write the Labor Department. and buy one of them books. It was a mystery to him, allowed Zeke, that we got 36,000 ways of earning a living in this country and his brother-in-law couldn’t find a single one of them. He said this feller had been disemployed now fer a year and was sleeping at his house and eating his vittels about half the time. Clem Webster figgered them 7,000 kinds of jobs that has disappeared was probable due to automation. He was of the opinion that this number will jump to 27,000 by the time the Labor Department gits around to compiling the next dictionery. Clem told the fellers that from what he could hear, about the only things they wasn’t running with machinery in the factories today was the labor

union contracts. He said he had advised his young grandson to go into the barber shop business on account of this was about the only job that wasn’t liable to git eliminated by automation. Clem figgered they ain’t never made a machine that will give a feller a good haircut and never will. Come to think about it, Mister Editor, Clem might have been giving that boy some good advice. Haircuts was $2.50 in Washington, according to the papers, and the Barbers Union in Los Angeles has announced they was going to $2.50 soon. I’m mighty glad I’m gitting more baldheaded ever day.
