Gardening
Interest
,
UNLESS
there
is
a
sufficiently
large
attendance
at
tonight's
annual
general
meeting
to
make
apparent
a
reasonable
measure
of
interest,
Prince
Rupert
Horticultural
Association
will
probably
go
by
default
for
another
season.
Meantime,
the
executive
is
making
an
earnest
appeal
for
Prince
Rupert
gardeners
to
turn
out
and
keen
the
Association
alive
by
offering
their
leadership
and
assistance.
In
a
community
that
professes
a
desire
to
be
'Beautiful
and
attractive,
the
function
that
a
strong
and
well
organized
Horticultural
Association
can
play
is
not
difficult
to
estimate.
It
does
not
take
much
imagination
to
see
how
important
it
can
be.
Those
already
interested
in
gardening
can
find
therein
a
common
meeting
ground
for
their
mutual
benefit
What
is
more
important
they
can
get
others
interested
in
gardening
and
beautifica-tion
all
of
which
is
to
the
good
for
the
community.
It
certainly
does
not
speak
very
well
for
a
city
that
cannot
get
enough
gardeners
together
to
keep
.such
an
organization
alive,
particularly
here
in
'Prince
Rupert
which
has
been
described
as
"The
Garden
City
of
the
North."
One
of
the
satisfying
things
about
gardening
Jys
that
one
can
spend
as
little
energy
or
money
as
one
wishes.
Unlike
some
strenuous
hobbies,
this
one
is
elastic.
There
is
scope
for
the
most
elabo-;
rate
planning
and
designs,
for
an
immense
amount
of
exercise
if
one
feels
that
way..
On
the
other
hand,
if
time
or
health
are
limited,
or
if
one
feels
:
like
loafing,
then
one
ran
have
a
garden
to
suit
:
that
mood,
too.
One
cannot
say
that
a
small
flower
garden
Is
less
beautiful
than
a
large
one,
but
there
It
is
really
amazing
"the
results
in
satisfaction
and
beauty
gardeners,
can
get
from
a
tiny
plot
of
flowers.
And
they
will
not
take
much
work
either.
A
little
digging
and
a
few
packets
of
seeds
or
boxes
,-of
started
plants
are
all
that
are
needed.
If
one
nas
more
time
it
can
be
enlarged
and,
as
ones
interest
grows,
more'
frills
can
be
added.
BETTER
DAYS
PRINCE
RUPERT,
which
was
described
in
the
Legislature
as
a
"neglected
city"
and
which
has
certainly
not
gone
forward
according
to
the
promises
of
forty
odd
years
ago,
seems
at
last
to
have
had
a
break.
It
is
to
have
a
great
industry.
The
provincial
government
has
persuaded
the
Celanese
Corporation
of
America
to
establish
a
plant
on
Watson
Island,
eight
miles
from
the
city,
.
and
to
spend
$15,000,000
on
buildings
and
equipment.
Approximately
1000
men
will
be
employed
in
the
woods
.and
the
mill,
thus
establishing
quite
an
important
payroll
for
Prince
Rupert.
An
interesting
feature
of
the
bargain
with
the
Celanese
Corporation
is
the
corporation's
undertaking
to,
maintain
the
forest
area
allotted
to
it
in
nernetuitv.
Thus
while
forests
will
;
.will
grow,
the
plant
on
Watson
Island,
it
is
prom-!
ised,
will
keep
on
rolling
along.
;
Prince
Rupert
has
tried
grain,
exporting
and
;
has
tried
shipbuilding.
They
have
not
proven
very
satisfactory.
Its
fishing
industry
has
been
better.
'.
Now
it
is
to
have
pulp
which
mav
prove
the
be-1
ginning
of
better
days.

WINGING
THEIR
WAY
TO
SCHOOL
The
Lunsford
boys,
Richard
and
Gordon,
will
never
be
late
for
school
if
their
mother,
Mrs.
Sarah
Lunsford,
Atlanta,
Ga.,
has
anything
fa
say
about
it.
Mom,
who
is
a
licensed
pilot,
flies
her
boys
to
school
in
the
family
sky
bus.
She
says
that
the
bad
roads
in
her
section
of
Cobb
county
(Georgia)
makes
the
plane
about
the
only
means
of
getting
the
youngsters
to
school
in
time
and
without
muddy
feet.

so
that

A

Providing

in

will
visit

on
May
24.
Should
Mr.
Cockshutt
find
It
actually
possible
to

the
proposal
Is
that
a
dinner
or
evening
meeting
would
be
held
at
which
Mr.
Cockshutt
would
have
the
opportunity
of
meeting

of

of
