When he talked with them"

I By DOROTHY B.SHTJPB
I'll bet I've got something at
imy house that you have never
een! I have a snake plant
that is blooming! It has three
blooms and by the time this gets
into print, they will probably be
none, but I've taken a picture of
it and I'll be dielighted to show
it to you when we meet. There
are other names for the plant,
such as mother-in-law tongue,
and the official name, according
to Lib Baker's flower book, is
sansevieria.
Her book also said it was sort
of unusual for one to bloom, but
with proper care and you know
how well I tend to flowers?
that one could expect blooms. I
have tried hard to remember to
(had to beat some f itofej And
Tom Nolan earn' by ."yesterday
and he was complaining about the
girls' hemline! What a .change
a few yean make! .
Saw James Lee Davis, former
Walnut students, m -Asheville
this afternoon and he's a hustling
bread salesman in Asheville. Gee,

D. Roberts and Eldridge Leake
were in my health class and how
much fun they had playing bas
ketball Seems like a long time
ago, boys!
OBSERVED Did your lilacs
get by the frost this year; mine
did, but I didn't have too many
blooms My azaleas were pret
ty until frost nipped them
i'earl has some pretty yellow
flowers in her yard, I forget what
she calls them David and Edith

but I hope everyone thinks they
are mine cause they are right be
