Syracuse-Wawasee Garden club honored, plants trees

The Syracuse-Wawasee Garden dub was honored this past week at die state garden chib convention in Fort Wayne when its members received the national purple rosette award for excellence in a standard flower show. Each year the state garden dub president may apply for three purple rosettes, if merited. These awards are noncompetitive with other states. Only garden dubs that are members of die National Council of State Garden Chibs, Inc., are eligible to apply for National Council awards. Each dub must also be a member of a state federation. When a garden dub bolds a standard flower show, not only are the individual entries judged, but the show as a whole is also judged. Those shows achieving a score of 90 to 94 are eligible for a state award and those scoring 95 or over, for the national award. Points are scored on staging, required divisions, advised sections, state and national objectives and the quality of the show as a whole. The Syracuse-Wawasee Garden chib held its winning show on August 24 at Wawasee high school. It was entitled “Tune of tiie Blooms.” Mrs. Harry AppenzeUer was chairman of the show. Mrs. Ralph Clingaman is dub president. Arbor Day In Indiana The following comments on Arbor Day in Indiana were written by Mrs. Ralph Clingaman, president of the Syracuse-Wawasee Garden club and north central district director of the Garden Clubs of Indiana, Inc. Let us give nature a lasting smile this year by planting trees. Arbor Day on April 27 was set aside to remind us to plant new trees or replenish plants which have died. The SyracuseWawasee Garden chib has a continuing project to plant trees at the Syracuse cemetery to form a living fence. Each year members purchase and pay for the planting of these trees. Arbor Day is recognized in each of tiie 50 states plus Guam, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. The dates are different to suit the best planting seasons in each area. Indiana first observed Arbor Day in 1884. More people are planting trees this year and never were they more greatly needed. Some of the reasons for planting trees are: Trees help supply oxygen we need to breathe . . . Trees help keep our air supply fresh by using up carbon dioxide that we exhale and that factories and engines emit. .. Trees use their hairy leaf surface to trap and filter out ash, dust, and pollen particles carried in the air. . . Trees provide food and protection for birds and wild animals . TTees lower air temperatures by using the sun’s energy to evaporate water in the leaves — Trees increase humidity in dry climates by releasing moisture as a by-product of food-making and evaporation . . . Trees give a constant supply of products — lumber, cellulose for paper and fiber; as well as nuts, mulches, oils, gums, syrups and fruits . . . Trees slow down forcefill winds Trees shade us from direct

sunlight . . . Trees camouflage harsh scenery such as unsightly city dumps, roadside litter, auto graveyards and mine sites . . . Tree roots hold the soil and keep silt from washing into streams . . . Trees offer pleasing landscape and sceneries with their fragrance and seasonal splashes of color. . . Selection of trees is most important. They should be in harmony with existing plans and laws and must be suitable for the climate and soil conditions. The Forest Service, Soil Conservation Service Extension, the county agent and local nurserymen arc always glad to help. They wil offer guidance and assistance ir planting the trees. Syracuse auxiliary plans summer events At the regular monthly meeting of the Syracuse American Legion Auxiliary, Mrs. Richard Nolan, poppy chairman, made plans for poppy days on May 18-19 and also for the poppy window display.
