His name shall endure forever; His name shall be continued as long as the sun; and men shall be bless ed in him; all nations shall call him blesssed. Let the whole earth be filled with his glory.—Psalm 72:8, 11, 17, 19. If you like beautiful landscaping from flowering trees, plant the fol lowing: the white and red crab ap ples—they are beautiful; the cher ry tree offers a variety of interest; We have the Block, Nanking and Oriental. For beauty in spring, fall and winter, plant plenty of pink and white dogwoods. The Hawthorn is a beautiful tree in spring, when the cluster of white flowers ap pears. It is equally pretty when the branches are filled with red berries in the fall. —June and July; forget-me-not— June; foxblove-^une and July; Gass pink—June; peony—May through July; Shasta daisy—June through September. There are a number of others that will give plenty of blooms. Let’s not iorget the coloring of our surroundings during the sea son. Take time out to enjoy the seashore arid its beautiful sunsets. A portion of one of Oliver Wendell Holmes’ poems is beautiful for this time of year. The Chambered Nautilus) This is the ship of pearl, which. poets feign. Sails the unshadowed main— The venturous bark that flings On the sweet summer winds its purpled wings In gulfs enchanted, where the siren sings, And coral reefs lie bare. Where the cold sea-maids rise and sun their streaming hair. Thanks for the heavenly message brought by thee. Child of the wandering sea. Cast from her lap forlorn! From thy dead lips a clearer note is born Than ever Triton blew from weathered horn! While on mine ear it rings Through the deep caves of thought I hear a voice that sings. Build the more stately mansions, O ray soul. As the swift seasons roll! Let each new temple, nobler than the last. Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast. Till thou at length art free. Leaving thine outgrown shell by life’s unresting sea. " Plant Judas trees for a small compact tree to be beautiful with rosy-lavendar blooms. 'The red leaf peach and plum tree offers a varie ty of color in leaf and blossom. Plant magnolias for foliage both for outdoor and indoor enjoyment. Enjoy the beauty of the beech smoke tree, fringe tree and silver bell. The Golden Rain tree is pret ty too. Many perennials will give you a display of color and foliage the year through, if you plant accord ing to the months they bloom. Here are a few dependable ones: Alphine rock cress—April; poppy —May; bleeding heart—May; blue phlox — May; Columbine — April; Aconite — June; baby’s breath — June; Astilbe—^une; dragon head For the beet In wheel balancing, wheel alignment, motor tune-ug, brake, generator, atarter repairs, Harvey Moore.

Thomas & Sons .BUILDING CONTRACTORS Residences — Commercial Buildings — Schools and Churches "BUILDING NOW FOR THE FUTURE" PhenM 7-«355 7-3306 Gl«n Burnie Gardens My camellia (Japonica) plants are turning yellow and losin.g leaves. What can I do? There are three possible sug gestions that may be made to cor rect this trouble. First, soil drain age,. Camellias do not like “wet feet.’’ Secondly, the plants may have been set too deep in the soil. This is a common error. When plants are purchased from your nurseryman or favorite garden sup ply center, they are always “balled and burlapped.” Dig a hole larger than the ball, and set the plants so that the top of the ball is even with the soil level. Fill the hole with equal volumes of peat and good soil, firm and mulch with pine needles. The third, and most likely cause is associated with soil pH. The ca mellia likes a soil with a pH of about 5.5. The only safe method to determine the pH range is by a soil test. When grading around new homes or other buildings, lime and plaster residues are mixed with the soil which may raise the pH to 7.0 or above. This is too “sweet” for camellias and azaleas. See your county agent, vocational agricul ture teacher or-your soil conser vation man and ask for a soil sam pie kit. P\ill instruction will be given, on the box, for taking and mailing the samples. Sulphur, or a mixture of three parts sulphur and one part of iron sulphate may be used to pull the pH down, but you should know the proper amount to use or you may injure the plants. A soil test is the only safe method. The pyracanthas are beautiful in our neighborhood. Plan to plant one this fall and train it flat against a wall, or a louver which screens the carport. This can be easily done by Elspalier training. Because this plant is naturally a rather straggly grower, some form of training will give many pretty patterns. It is best to start with a young plant so that you can con trol the effect you want to produce. New Bern parents, whether they ’re well off or have to count their pennies, need not short change their moppets on delightful litera ture. Down at the New Bern Public Library—as free as the air—you’ll find a brand new assortment of picture books.- Any one of these volumes, picked at random, should prove quite fascinating to your youngster. The books are well bound, and naturally you wouldn’t want to turn them over_to your child for possible mistreatment. As a precau tion, enjoy them with your off spring. In fact, that’s what parents ought to do anyhow, not only to protect the library’s property but to give children added pleasure. When you visit the library, look for “The Plain Princess and the Lazy Prince,” “Which Witch,” “Muley Ears,” Nobody’s Dog,” “Terrible Terrifying Toby,” “The Cat In The Hat,” “The Children That Lived In A Shoe,” “The Dog Who Grew Too Much,” “Contrary Woodrow,” “I Like Caterpillars,” “The Three Bears Visit Goldi locks,” “Chester, The Little Pony,” “Big Black Horse,” “A Fly Went By,” “Little Red Newt,” “The Big Jump,” and “A Big Ball of String.” There isn’t an inferior book in the whole lot.

MOORE'S BARBECUE Phone ME 7-2276 1216 Broad Street Ten years ago one of the world’s foremost physicists began to sim plify the physical laws by adding a fifth dimension to the basic four dimensioms of space(-time, used in modern physics. This fifth di mension is the eternity domain of our universe. In this domain is to be found the basis or origin of all things, physical or mental. He stated that therein lies the origin of energy and matter. Life and consciousness. The physical four-dimensional space-time world is everywhere evi dent. That its contact is constant ly guided, and controlled by the eternity domain. From whence it receives its life and energy. What does this prove? It proves that the further man gropes for truth the more he realizes there is a spiritual world in control. The more a scientist searches for logic and reason, the more he realizes the infinity of God’s intelligence, and wonders of the natural forces. I believe man’s mind is his entity of Soul and God and will be allow ed to invent and discover as things need be until he becomes next to God. Beyond the curtain of the un known there lies a world even be yond space and time. A spiritual world from whence we came, and to which we shall return. Jesus stated this to Nicodemus as quot ed in John 3:13—“And no man as- cendeth up to heaven, except he that came down from heaven, even the son of man, which is in heav en.” What a challenge to mankind to pursue this field of knowledge. —By Emmitt L.

Perusing the volumes with your child will bring back memories of your own tot days, when a princess or a witch was very real and wonderful to you. Speaking of witches, you might agree that “Which Witch” is the best of the new books that the library has obtained for children. Thumbing through its pages, we discovered that one witch is very rich and the other witch has the itch. The latter witch has to start from scratch, but the way it all turns out will satisfy your child We know you’re busy with house • hold duties, so you’ll be glad to know that all of the books are short.
