_“The value of planning living memorials to the nation’s heroes has been recognized in the 
minds of our people since World War I. Avenues and parks have been beautified in their honor 
by many civic-minded indwiduals and organizations. The end of the present conflict will mark 
the beginning of a new era in memorial creation, which, if properly organized and administered, 
will result in worthwhile memorials of lasting beauty.”’ 
—Taken from Living Memorials, published by The American Association of Nurserymen. 
Rose-gardens will be one of the most important forms which a memorial may take. In 
fact, all memorials may incorporate Rose-gardens in their plans. A nation-wide and con- 
certed effort is being made by many organizations to have these living memorials truly ap- 
propriate and beautiful. 
Many splendid municipal and public Rose-gardens have been established in the past, 
to the unending joy of the residents and the lasting beautification of the communities. 
Some of the most famous in our immediate vicinity are pictured on these two pages. 
Thousands of Paramount Roses have found their way into these gardens, where they are 
maintaining their good reputation.
