Garden Time
BY M. E. GAKDNEK
N. C. STATE
Every citizen of North Carolina
should visit the restored Tryon
Paiace and Gardens at New Bern.
The immensity of this restoration
project cannot be fully realized
until you actually see what has
been accomplished and listen to
the delightful and gracious ladies,
in period dress, who serve as
guides. They simply effervesce
with historical facts and present
them in such a charming manner
that you are carried back to an im
portant period of history in North
Carolina.
After visiting the Palace, the
carriage house and the kitchen, you
arc free to roam the grounds at
your leisure. The gardens are mag
| nificant and expertly done. The
Latham and Kellenberger gardens
! are especially attractive. We were
, there on March 27, a beautiful day,
and we found our timing to be per
fect. Hyacinths, tulips, jonquils and
many other bloming plants were
in full flower. As you entered the
Latham garden you were impressed
with its beauty and fragrance in
a quiet and peaceful setting.
I was impressed, toe, with
the fruit and vegetable garden.
Here we found dwarf apple
and pear trees espalier trained
on walls and trellises in every
conceivable pattern. While I
have not seen this type of
training in either England or
France. I doubt If they can im
prove upon what I saw in the
Tryon gardens.
Then we steered the jalopy to
ward Wilmington. When wo ar
rived at Holly Ridge, the turn-off
for Topsail fishing waters, I had a
yen to turn left with the ktea in
mind of wetting a hook. But a
gentle hand on the steering wheel
kept us on a straight course.
Saturday we visited Greenfield
Park and Gardens. Some azalea
varieties were in partial flower
but we were a bit early for the
big show. And. it was c-o-l-d.
We could not pass up the oppor
tunity to visit that Grand, Proud
and Formidable Lady, the USS
North Carolina. It is fitting that
she should come to rest in a quiet
basin in her native state after par
ticipating in the bloodiest battles
of our time. I explored every nook
and cranny open to public view
and enjoyed every minute of it.
We arrived in Raleigh in time
to have all the family together and
a birthday party for the youngest
grandson i 5 yeifrsi—at the Faculty
Club. It was a good day!
Over 14,000
Tarheels Get
Security
More than 14.500 men. women and
1 children in Wake County were re
ceiving social aecurity benefit pay
ments at the end of 1963. These
payments amounted to about $830.-
000 a month, according to John In-
manager for the Social
Security Administration in Raleigh.
"This represents an increase in the
number of beneficiaries of about 7
> percent oxer the same month last
1 year." he said.
The social security program was
28 years old last August 14. In
reviewing the growth of the pro
j gram. Ingle noted that at the close
] of 1940. the first year in which
monthly payments were made, only
200.000 people in the nation were
receiving payments.
In December 1963. over 19 million
were on the social security benefit
I rolls. Benefit payments in calendar
| year 1963 totalled $13,426,776,000.
I Numerous changes have been
made m the program since its be
! ruining At first, only workers in
commerce and industry were cov
ered Now, more than 9 out of 10
wmlring Americans arc covered by
the program.
Nine cut of every 10 children and
their mothers can count on momh
ly benefits if the family bread
| winner dies. Nearly 90 percent of
| the people reaching 63 in 1963 were
eligible for benefits.
