Grow your flowers to use in Gar den Therapy uses. Mrs. F. D. Fick, Garden Therapy chairman for 1958 of the Garden Club of North Caro lina, Inc. has written a poem on the subject that has such a wonder ful meaning. Many people in our neighborhood are really in need of such fine work. THE THING CALLED GARDEN THERAPY Gardening Therapy is not just a program With club members appointed to lead. But rather, helping hands are extended To those who are deeply in need. In need of something of beauty In a drab life they lead day by day, Devoid of hope and of courage TONY'S DRUG STORE ME 7-4060 - Free Delivery - giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiib “ - S I A GOOD PLACE TO EAT - S • 5 METROPOLITAN CLUB I 317 Pollock Street ME 7-9827 - wm Enjoy Recreation with Your Friends = m rniiiiiiimiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii?

Give them somthing of peace— then who knows— That in working with hands that are willing With flowers and plants that they grow. They begin to see somthing of beauty They’ve created—though progress be slow. They can take a few flowers from their garden And forget their plight for awhile, With choosing and then with . arranging— And soon there’s the dawn of a smile. On a face bereft of expression Where grim lines of sorrow have grown Comes a smile when they know they’ve accomplished. An art of them unknown. They’ve planted seeds of the flowers, in their garden. They’ve watched them sprout, then unfold, and then grow. They’ve watched over and tended them daily, ’Twas their own hands that helped them to know The created thing of beauty With God’s help, with sunshine and rain, A new hope and a sense of security, Garden Therapy helped them to gain. In their windows in winter, a dish garden Will cheer them each day—then behold A violet lifting its flower head To say, “Just for you, I unfold.” It is theirs, they have something to cherish And to think of in times of despair, For a flower spreads its fragrance in cell blocks Just the same as it does every where. So we go to this prison where women Learn to know that we come just to share. Not to censor, condemn, or to judge them, But to help guide their hands back to where They can help build a brighter tomorrow With the sense of the good earth FOr this effort at guidance reaps a harvest And we may never know its true (Centiflued on Back Page) .

Kids come and kids go, but New Bern never had a livelier crop of small fry than the moppets who grew up in the paradise that was upper Pollock street forty or more years ago. The editor of The Mirror, who was anything but a Little Lord Fauntleroy himself, had to go some to keep up with the likes of the Mann boys, the Shriners, the Brin sons, Charles and Howell Styron, and Ben Lipman. And there were others equally notorious. Reid Fuller was in the turmoil too, although in some repects he was milder and better behaveei- than the rest of these very young but often violent brats. Only once did Reid go off the deep end and perpetrate a dastard ly deed that no one else had thought of doing. His innocent and willing victim was the Fuller dog, George. George, if memory isn’t playing tricks on us, was almost as big as a small pony. He was some sort of a hound—brown in color and with the saddest looking eyes that ever looked miserable. He loved everybody, and the neighborhood kids could do any thing under the sun to him without fear of the consequences. As dogs go, George was the next thing to perfect. However, Reid got the notion Giv* Your Favorito Furnituro a New Lease en Life. FREB ESTIMATES PICK-UP & DELIVERY Gray Upholstery Co. Dial ME 7-7263 that the big fellow wasp’t colorful enough. Without consulting any one, even George, he found a paint brush and a can of the brightest red paint that was ever mixed. Figuring that little Reid, who was his idol, could do no wrong, the giant dog stood" still and allowed himself to be coated from tail’s end to the tip of his nose with the stuff. In a little while, Reid and George had something in common. When Reid’s father got through whack ing him soundly on the stern, Reid had a southern exposure that was slightly red, too.
