September 1, 1834 COLOR AS AN ASSET A visitor who had' recently been in the United States and had driven a great deal about one of the large cities remarked on the fact that the gardens of Prince Rupert showed more color than did the gardens in the big city to the south. It was one of the-best compliments yet received ": f or tho city in which we Jive. The worst feature of the local gardens is that there are too many breaks caused by neglected vacant lots. Even on the best part of Fourth Avenue and on Borden Street there are gaps in : the 'general scheme of beautification that mar the effect It has been suggested that, where adjoining vacant lots 'interfere with the scheme of street beautification, the 'owners of gardens try to secure the use of the vacant lot and do enough work on it to prevent it being an eyesore to the whole community. In some places the municipality charges the owner a fee for cutting the weeds. At any rate ; an" effort should be made to co-ordinate the gardening activities so that, while there may not be uniformity on a street, there may at least be a prevention of the unsightly conditions that-now exist. i This summer has been favorable to gardening. While the slugs and cut worms did a great deal of damage, enough flowers were saved to give plenty of color and miis imve ueen ivepu utxier man ever ueiore. n me present rate of progress can be maintained Prince Rupert will soon become noted for its gardens and flowers and tourists will come from f ar and wide to. see them. Also the railway authorities will recognize the city's attractions and give the tourists plenty of time to explore it .25 .25 Ere j B C.
