nr -rx-rtn v w Tree Specialist Speaks To Kiwanis Bill Bowers, tree specialist from Mishawaka, spoke to Kiwanjs Monday and warned of the dhnger to mey of Nappenee’s trees. He hns contracted with the City to take care of those in the parks, many of which are rotted and hollow and ready to fall. Mr. Bowers said that, if something isn’t done, Nappanee will lose at least 40 percent of its trees in the next five years. Bowers warned of “gyp artists” nlo w going door to door to get business spraying and trimming trees and he said that many of them are unqualified. The diseases affecting Nappanee’s trees, he said, include a soot scale, found on the limbs and branches, a fungus which causes a wilt, and a canker which' tends to dry up branches. He has suggested a program of safety pruning to the City, but the City has n’t any money presently budgeted for this purpose. The City, if it did choose to undergo this program would take care of trees in parkways, and indMdual property owners Could contract for other trees on their property. When asked about the little red welts on maple leaves, Bowers said that they are caused by an aphid, but they are not necessarily harmful.

Strictly Personal

Some good news to mahy parents. The report is that the tad Os long haircuts for boys with the mop in front has passed, and ffia young man are now starting ,fp brush their hair back again. * • The new Stave Allan show is certainly a refreshing change from the usual stuff. It's the shortest hour in television. * * Joanne Wright commented on tho lurid covers which are often oh paperback books and how often the picture on the front has nothing to do with tho story contained therein. Recalled many years ago when a traveling salesman, used to bring home paperbacks. One was "Way of All Flesh", hardly a sexy book, which had a completely misleading picture of a half clad woman reclining on a couch. The practice of bringing those books home came to a sudden halt when one of our sons, then two years old came out and handed this particular one to his mother saying "Lady night night." • * The Nappanee post office has an interesting display of pictures showing the stages of construction of that building. , ] . , * * The red car is finally back and it seems as good as new. We missed it. * * One of the great secrets of Nappanee's present success in so many directions is the fact that it has active service organizations. Add together all that the Jaycees, Lions, Rotary, Kiwanis, and the Legion and VFW accomplish in a year's time, and it's quite an item. • * This week, the Elkhart Truth showed a picture of a man who had a Sanseveria plant with a bloom on it. Mrs. William Freet has two plants with blooms, ono with six on it. To the uneducated, those are called mother-in-law's tongue, and they don't bloom very often. * * When the niule train came to town, the editor thought he ought to try and interview somebody. Trying to do so, his self-confid-ence was shaken when the mule train driver yelled to the leader, "Tell that rube to get out of the middle of the street." MRS.
