Hardy Chrysanthemums, the glory of autumn ( Page 22) 
“For trees, you know, are friends indeed. 
They satisfy such human need; 
In summer shade, in winter fire, 
With flower and fruit meet all desire. 
And if a friend to man you'd be. 
You must befriend him like a tree.” 
Chas. A. Heath 
You can have beautiful Everblooming Roses the first year.

The Kiddies’ Outdoor Play Room 
Youngsters love the outdoors and should be given the oppor¬ 
tunity to spend as much time as possible in the fresh air, play¬ 
ing their wholesome games and enjoying the beauty and interest 
of living and growing things. There is no surer way of inspir¬ 
ing a love of home than by providing beautiful surroundings 
outside as well as within. 
The front belongs more or less to the public, the back is our 
opportunity to develop an outdoor living room for recreation 
and enjoyment. In most cases one corner may be made a chil¬ 
dren’s outdoor play room with just a little fixing up. Perhaps 
a tree or two, a few shrubs to partially screen it from the rest 
of the yeard, and some flowers for color and interesting detail. 
Give the kiddies a sand pile, a swing, perhaps a teeter board. 
Here, away from the dangers of the street, they may amuse them¬ 
selves for hours, and develop naturally without too much re¬ 
straint. As they become older, give them a little hardy garden. 
Haven't you observed how eagerly they watch for the first flow¬ 
ers of spring, how they enjoy picking the flowers in the woods, 
free to all who come? Teach them to care for flowers and they 
will love them all the more. In their own little garden, where 
all summer long they feel free to gather flowers for themselves 
and their childhood friends, they will early learn the joy of giv¬ 
ing, and will unconsciously carry into later life the lessons they 
have learned.
