j JOT’S PHONE CALL TO DAD RESCUES FAMILY Six-year-old Joan Hadley, of Littleton, N. H., was in the habit of Telephoning her father, Fire Chief H. Edgar Hadley, daily for a chat. So, when she came in from play one day recently and found her mother, Mrs. Florence Hadley, and her sister, Ruth, nnconscious, she went to the telephone, called her father, and told him that they had fainted. Chief Hadley sounded a general alarm and dashed to the house with an inhalator. The fireman revived the mother and daughter and two other persons, who were suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning.*

-- . Doable Meaning Though we usually think of the word davenport meaning a type of sofa, it really means a small writing desk. The connotation of the word davenport, to mean a sofa or couch with back and arms, comes from the name of the maker of a couch of this type whose name was Davenport. ‘No Place to Go’ Worried neighbors summoned police when,for several days no one was seen entering or leaving a Pottsville, Pa., home. “Everything’s O. K.,” the officers said after investigating. “The residents merely had no place to go, so they stayed home.”

in this section of the country, the ground is mellow and easy to work the ideas you have gathered are still fresh in your mind as to what changes you want to make, what is only a vision now, will become a reality next spring if you will only give time and thought to your fall planting, and if you want your garden to be gay and very colorful early in the spring, you will have to put just lots of bulbs in the ground this fall/ Snowdrops and crocus are always so anxious to bloom that they push up through sleet or snow just to prove that spring is on its way. Even if you buy your bulbs at our local stores it is well to get catalogs so as to make a study of what you want to plant. If you are going to plant trees and large growing shrubs, you should go to the nursery and choose them before they drop their leaves so as you will know just how they will look in their new location. The nurseryman will be glad to put your name on the trees you select, then after the first hard frost you can get them planted, keep them well watered so as they will be in good condition when hard winter sets in Vrhich as a rule is in January. If you are going to make cuttings or pot up flowers to bring in the house, now is the time to do it, start them growing outside so as they will be over the shock by the time to bring them in. Do not forget that the time is getting short to set Oriental Poppies and Madonna Lillies as both have to make a fall growth. Roses can be set both spring and fall, but most all rose-growers advocate fall planting as they are freshly dug and still full of life,

more so than when stored all winter, and many of the growers offer plants more reasonable in the fall rather than to store them. Another thing we have stated before is the advantage of group buying, when two or three neighbors buy bulbs by the hundred and plants by dozen, everybody saves, and you get more for your money, fall is also the best time to dig up those clumps of perennials that are getting too big for the space allowed them, divide and exchange with your friends. I know those huge sunflowers do net add a thing to the landscape of the garden, but they are the perfect bait for red birds and goldfinches, and the brown thrush has found something he' seems to like pretty well in my lawn, I feel highly honored that they as well as the many other birds spend so much time in my garden.
