THURSDAY, JUNE 2, I960 THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA PAGE 8 Wells Garden Is Described At Meeting Wells Japanese Garden formed a beautiful setting for the Tues day meeting of the Newberry Garden Club. As guests arrived, they were served light refresh ments and tea by the co-hostesses, Mrs. Seth Meek and Mrs. Joe Rob erts. The president, Mrs. Louis C. Floyd, called the meeting to or der, after which routine business was conducted and reports heard. Mrs. Seth Meek, projects chair man, reported that ell lights at the Roadside Park had been des troyed. The club voted to write a letter to the Sheriff of the Coun ty, ^to be signed by all members, requesting help in patrolling the area to reduce the vandalism. Mrs. Price J. Padgett, horticul ture chairman, showed a wild- flower guide which may be purch ased inexpensively at one of the local supermarkets. She also told of two exquisitely beautiful flow ering trees which she had seen recently: The Empress, a native of China, which has been brought to this country and naturalized, and now grows wild in Tennessee and Mississippi; and the European Horse Chestnut in full bloom on the Capitol grounds in Washing ton. She stated that both could be grown equally well in this part of the country. Mrs. James F. Coggins, pro gram chairman, presented Mrs. Don Rook, who stated that Fulmer Wells, owner of the Japanese Gar dens, had accepted an invitaion to speak to th« club about the garden; however, the meeting was scheduled to be held at the peak of its beauty, and Mr. Wells is at tending the International Rotary Club convention in Miami. Prior to his departure, he took Mrs. Cog gins and Mrs. Rook on a tour of the garden and explained the va rious plants to them. In her talk, Mrs. Rook pointed out that Japanese arrange their gardens as things grow—close to nature; that they lived for and in their gardens, which open to the outdoors with home and garden as one unit. Japanese Gardens, which date back 3000 or more years, are planned with the use of rocks, trees, birds, animals, fish, flow ers. Streams run from east to west in accordance with Japanese mythology. Stone lanterns are to be found in these gardens, and stepping stones, steps, and paths are gently curved. There are three types of Japanese Garden—hill, flat, and tea, the latter being the design of the Wells Garden. Mr. Wells designed and began work on his garden about 25 years ago, but prior to that time his mother, the late Mrs. H. B. Wells, Sr., who was an expert horticulturist, had planted many exotic plants on the land which border's Scott’s Creek. There is a building at the entrance of Wells garden where one waits for the master of the tea ceremony. Just inside there is a water basin for those who are about to partake of ( tea to wash their hands. After passing through the gate, the visitors see ponds, falls, streams, Catalina Swim Suits FOR TODDLERS— Sizes 2, 3, and 4 FOR JUNIORS— Sizes 7, 9 and 11 FOR PRE-TEENS— Sizes 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 $2.98 TO $15.95 Tots To Teens Main S.
