Where a few months ago lay winter’s cheerless drifts a floral profusion now Spreads beauty in color and deli jcacy of form. Clusters i of huge jbloom in gold and pink unfold |waxy petals from beds of spiked Icactus and multitudes of deep blue botanical beauties nodding on long istems join the 'riot' of 'colois and mingle a faint frag^nce with the Imore noticable insense. And igorgeous summer has just begun. • The success of the over seas vets jbonus money might encourage that jnumerous body which remained at ihome to march upon Washington |with demands for reward on the grounds of. helping “make the world safe for democracy” with knife and fork.
