Face to Face with Death
p ? Army Signal Corps Photo
This is one of the most unusual pictures to come out of the war. Here is
a Jap sniper who had hidden himself in an American foxhole, then dug
it a little deeper. Bat ahaip eyed doughboys discovered him. Here you
see him, crouched diijrn, mfracniously dodging bullets and grenades that
Tanks shot and lobbed tit hlft. When this nlftare was taken he {dive,
but note the fear of death on his face. A few moments later he died In
a hail storm of American lead. Back our boys up who are fighting such
men as these by buying War Bonds.

LOUI8BURG GARDEN CLUB
The June meeting of the Louis
burg Garden Club, the final one
of the Club year, was held at the
home of Mrs. W. C. Perry, with
the President, Mrs. E. 8. Ford,
presiding. After the adoption of
the report of the secretary of the
minutes of the May meeting, the
report for the year of the treas
urer was read and approved, and
a committee, consisting of the
treasurer, Mrs. Bailey, the presi
dent, Mrs. Ford and Mrs. Perry,
was appointed as a financial in
vestigating committee.
The program tot the afternoon
centered about garden activities
in June, the first paper being
"June Days are Rose Days" by
Mrs. Bailey, who reminded those
present of good ways to arrange
roses in a variety of vases, as
well as combinations with other
flowers and foliage that give
pleasing effects.
Mrs. Amick told of "Propagat
ing Madonna Lilies" and the pro
per way of transplanting the stalk
and scales to form bulblets.
Activities for "June in a South
ern Garden" were discussed by
Mrs. M. S. Davis. Among these
were the treatment for blackspot
on roses, the transplanting of iris
at this time, and the filling In
with new plants the spaces left
vacant by earlier ones.
Two poems were read by Mis?
Lucy Smithwick,' "Day's End"
and "Garden Overtones", and an
other short poem by Mrs. Ford.
The flower arrangement for the
meeting had been brought by
Mrs. Bailey and consisted of yel
low rose buds and Shasta daisies
tastefully grouped in a flat white
bowl. _ .. ,
The~climax of interest for the
afternoon came in the awarding
of a prize to the member who had
arranged the "Still Life Picture"
most nearly nieeting the require
ments laid down at the beginning
of the Club season for the ar
rangements at the several meet
ings. The vote had been taken by
a secret committee of judges, and
the sealed envelope which con
tained the three votes, when open
ed, showed that Mrs. W. C. Perry
was the winner. Her prize was a
dainty pink glass container, and
the prize-winning arrangement
was the one which she had made
for the December meeting, a win
ter scene, with fire trees lightly
covered with snow, surrounding
a lake beside which were two
fauns ? all In miniature.
In closing the meeting, the pre
sident expressed the regret that
the Club feels In losing Mrs. Carl
Watkins as a member because of
her change of residence.
