No Billboards, Trucks ? On BUie Ridge Pkw'y One of the few things about the Blue Ridge Parkway that does not ' change is the fence?weathered chestnut rail fence. Also constant are the mountaineer cabins, of which a few remain. One in partic ular is set in its own little park and easily seen from the highway. This is the Brinegar Cabin near Doughton Park. Another thing about the Park ? way that does not change is the absence of billboards and trucks. No commercial traffic or advertis - ing is permitted along its entire i length, which makes for startling contrast with ordinary highways. 1-up. Third Flight Consolation Walter Sowell, Sumter, S.

Flowers noted on the roadways are white, blue and lavender as ters. Jellow and purple ironweed and the several varieties of golden rod. At the same time an occasional tree, or even an enterprising leaf, puts out the first finger of rust or gold. Dogwoods are already begin ning 'to show 'dark red at the tips of the leaves. Black gum is another deep red to watch for?and if the black gum is holiow, you may have found a "bee tree". Another tree that turns early In the season is sourwood?also a dark red. Maples are familiar to nearly everyone, and as often as not. the "overnight" switch from green to red-gold is as sure a sign of autumn as the first robin is of spring. Cool weather without heavy frosts brings out the best color dis play. ?s the thermometer slips low er, the trees cease to manufacture chlorophyll. Their green fades, re vealing yellows previously masked. Starches or sugars in trees such as maple, dogwood and gum. set to work and almost literally "paint the tree red". J. C.'
