Turner JEWELER ^QU£tZ/\ By DORIS ARMF1ELD FLOWER GARDEN A very lovely garden in Newberry, and one which all flower lovers should see is that of Mrs. Donald Rook at the home of her mother, Mrs. Ben. T. Buzhardt on Main street. Above the gate that leads into the garden is a judas tree on which is climbiTvg a ye'low jessamine. The two colors blended make a delight ful scene. Borderiretr each indiivildiual flower bed is pink thrift In the beds r inst the fence are an assortment blue phlox and azaleas, and in the other; beds are a shade of hya cinths, called “Queen of the Blues”, a very delicate blue shade. These are in the center of the bed surround ed by pansies. In the center of the garden is a silver gazing globe, in which all the flowers of the garden are re flected. At the bottom of th : - is a bed of Baby Blue Eyes and Pink Tulips. At the back of the garden, against the fence is a fish pond, which also is bordered by thrift and phlox. A most natural looking waterfall flows over a mound of rocks into the pool, where many goldfish may be seen swimming. After Mrs. Rook showed me over the garden we sat underneath a huge beach umbrella and enjoyed cold drinks which she served us. The prize, which was won by Mrs. Rannie Kirkland, was a cellophane umbrella. At noon, a two course luncheon was served on the card tables. Favors were small Japanese .parasols which were in the center of the individual cakes served at the last course.

The matches were a decided success, and more are planned for soon. Next on the money raising campaign, however, is a minstrel show which the “N” club will put on, and which promises to be one of the best yet. So if you aren’t interested in boxing, watch for fur ther announcement of the minstrel. MRS. WISEMAN HOSTESS TO BRIDGE CLUB Mrs. J. E. Wiseman was hostess when her bridge club met Tuesday afternoon.
