Sue Guard has special love for flowers, plants

It started with a wild flower garden when she was four or five s years old and her mother’s help, |Mrs. Don (Sue) Guard, has been /interested in gardening ever since. In her garden at her home on Tippecanoe Lake, she grows herbs, vegetables, house plants and has a large outdoor flower garden. “Gardening itself is a full time hobby. I do it all year around,” mentioned Mrs. Guard. Besides having her own garden she has learned of a new concept of growing plants and shows how to keep house and gift plants growing. t She learned of this technique from a display at a home and garden show in Notre Dame’s Athletic and Convocation Center. Also for the last nine weeks she has been taking a master gardener course at Purdue University. With this new concept the plants are always humidified the way they need and there is no worry about watering or the plants getting pot bound. In the horticulture classes she plans on offering, she will go into the different areas of bonsai. American style; green foliage; gift plants; propogation plans; growing seeds; flower plants; vegetables in the winter; and having an herb garden. The classes topics will be seasonal and for this season the classes will be mainly on bonsai. American style and greenb foliage. Besides gardening, which she

Save energy and money

By PATRICI A M. BRAMAN Extension Agent If today’s the day to do your laundry, why not try to save energy and money while doing the clothes? Try to use hot water only when it is necessary. It takes energy to heat water, and cold or warm water w orks just as well in cleaning most of your clothes. After washing your clothes in cold water or warm water, always rinse them in cold water. This applies to both hand washing and machine washing. If you use a washing machine, fill it so that the clothes can be cleaned properly and don’t overload. Some washers have a small load attachment or variable water level which you

| LOUISA’S LETTER © Dear Louisa, I made the mistake of getting married the month after I finished high school. The boy I married had one more year in college. We are getting along very well at the present, financially, but I have a big problem. All of Jim’s--1 call him Jim but that is not his name--friends are nice and friendly but they are educated people and half of the time 1 don’t know what they are talking about. This embarrasses me and makes me feel left out of things. We live in a college town. Do you think it would be a good idea for me to finish my courses at the college? R.T.-Va. Answer: Taking up your studies at the local college seeing to be

before or after each load to see that it is clean. A large amount of lint on the screen will not allow air to get to the dryer making it work harder. Check to see if the dryer’s outside exhaust is clean. If the exhaust is clogged, it may take longer to dry clothes and cost you money. Automatic cycles are great when drying clothes. This prevents overdrying, thus saving energy. Everytime you start and stop your dry er it has to work up to the desired temperature, so try to dry clothes in consecutive loads. In addition, save small, lightweight items until the end of your last load of clothes. There is still heat in the dryer and lightweight items usually require less heat. Finally, try to dry some clothes outside on the old-fashioned clothesline. Your clothes will smell fresh and you will save energy by using solar energy. 21 attend Leesburg club meeting The Leesburg Homemakers met in the home of Mrs. Everett Tom. Sr. on Wednesday, April 18.

/ - an ideal solution to your problem. Even though it might take several years to finish you would find it interesting and it would give you confidence in yourself. While a college course is not always necessary for a person to become educated, it is a great help and a means of getting a better paying job, if the occasion arises. One of the best educated men I ever knew was a man who stopped school at the age of fourteen but he was a reader who met every subject as a challenge. There was nothing one could talk about of which he was ignorant. We continue our education until the day we die-or we should. Louisa. Address letters: Louisa, Box 532,Orangeburg, S.C. 29115
