Looking from a window in our home, to the forest across the way, I am greeted with one of Nature's eye and heart feasts. Massive oaks and hickory trees, in varying shades of green, stand rimmed with amber, against a sky of blue and silver; stately pines wave slowly in a gentle breeze. Long garlands of scarlet bamboo leaves hang from ^h,e limbs of the trees, swaying in graceful rhythm. Knrh day I beeome so absorbed in admiration for the woodland beauties, when I come back to the practical present, 1 find my housekeeping duties and adoration of leaflace perfection and Autumn skies, t it <1 up into a scandalous knot! Today. I planted a rose! That means not only digging into the earth to sot out the dormant plant of a few sturdy canes and vigorous roots of a two-year vine. In my mind 1 set out a cream-colored latticed trellis, covered with the tracery of green leaf-sprays and hanging with numbers of pink roses. Hut this would be a colorless world without the rofC-tirited dreams of women, wouldn't it? To reach the heights of sucees < of any kind, a clearly-defined vision must inspire and urge us on. So. mentally, I saw my rose-vine, as it shall be, while working to bring my dream into a reality. Pink roses are one of my hobbies! The rr?~e that I planted is the epieen . of pink -rose climbers?"Kitty Kinjn, month." I wi-h that every garden in . Camden had at least one of these rose-vines. 1 piantea mine wnen? n.v pink of the flowers will blend with the lavender wistaria blossoms on a vine near; the two colors are exquisite together'. Kitty Kininmonth roses bloom in great numbers, are a very lovely shade that will not fade, however warm the sun shines and the J flowers are especially pretty to use I in baskets. I .have a wonderful secret for find! ing Happiness in life. It is a simple 'recipe, in reach, of. everyone, and is i absolutely infallible. Here it is: I "Find the Glory and TJeauty in^ttnrI seemingly common-place, every-day ! things of life." This lesson was taught by the Master Teacher of all I ages. Remembering past years, these Fairy fingers that lift from the eyes while dreaming of my flowers to be: , O, Roses may be, through swift passing years, FaiiV fingers that lift fro mthe eyes Thick, misty veils of fast-falling tears . To show rainbows of Hope in the skies. My Kitty Kininmonth roses arc go ing to nod a friendly welcome to all who come within our gates at; friends, and their fragrance ancl beauty shall : whisper to all the recipe for Happiness that lies in reach of us all.
