    Mrs. E. Collins,
A Magician With
Simple Tools
Give Mrs. Earl Oollins a sack
of cement, same stuoco wire, a
place to clean her paint brush
end some fkiwer seeds and plants
end she’U perform magic (The
magic is a composition of know
how and elbow grease!) What's
more she can use the articles
out or indoors with equal suc
cess.
Mr. and Mrs Oollins live four
miles west of Atkinson Mr. Col
lins, who is a contract *, is away
from home much of the time so
when the Mrs. needs something
done she doesn’t wait for the
Mr to came home, she just goes
ahead and does it.
About 10 years ago she de
cided to landscape her yard. Us
ing cement and rocks that she
gathered from various vacation
jpots (plus those given her by
interested friends) she built a
sloping stone wall across one
«de of the yard. This is planted
to vines, sedums and adaptable
flowers and plants of many kinds.

Where the cement shows it is
daubed with various colors, ("I
clean my paint brushes there,”
she says ) The whole makes a
composite of unbelievable beauty.
U nng various things as molds
she fashions flower boxes and
urns of cement. They too become
containers for the great variety
of flowers she grows.
Inside the house her artistry
and ingenuity become even more
apparent. Without ever having ta
ken a formal lesson she fashions
Japanese reeds and painted stuc
co wire into enchanting baskets
at all sizes and types. These will
laber be filled with winter bou
quets. Achillea, (commonly known
•au Golden Plate) dock seed heads
and Russian Olive branches are
a few of the ingredients that will
go into making the arrangements.
Articles o f her making often
grace banquet tables or are used
on other festive occassions by the
community.
Mrs. Collins has decorated the
altar of St. John’s Lutheran
church for the last two years.
The Congregation still fondly re
call the beauty of the Easter ar
rangement she fashioned from a
white styro-foam cross, candles
and Easter Lilies.
The thing her grandchildren en
joy most is an elves house that
she fashioned from masonite. It
has a glassed front. A light in
side shows the little elves (She
made them too from styro-foam)
busy with Christmas festivities.
Mums are the choice flower of
Mrs. Collins. “You can do so
many things with them,” she
says.
Wouldn't you know she’d say
that? I

k "He that would make his own
liberty secure must guard even
There are literally thousands of people across our land who are
in a position to own a Cadillac car—and whose hearts so incline
them—but who have not yet made the move.
If you are among them, we believe that you have now lost
your last logical reason for reluctance.
Listen but a moment—and see if we aren’t right.
If, for example, you have been waiting for an especially
rewarding Cadillac year—then certainly this is it! In all that
adds to motoring pleasure, this creation stands alone.
Or if you have been waiting for an unusually practical Cadillac
—then you need delay no longer.
Cadillac for 1960 represents a wiser investment than ever
... its soundness of design and its careful craftsmanship assure
maximum dependability . . . and its ability to retain its value
remains unchallenged among American motor cars.
Moreover, your dealer is now particularly anxious to wel
come new owners-and he has some very pleasant news for
you about today’s actual delivered cost.
So regardless of your reason for delay—we believe you owe
it to yourself to visit your Cadillac dealer and get the facts.
The fine and beautiful Cadillac of your dreams is waiting
for you in his showroom right now.
