Charleston Gardens
In Record Bloom
~ The annual carnival of azalea
color is now at its height in
Charleston’s world-famous gar
dens—the earliest start of the full
bloom season on record. A pro
gression of bloom of later varieties
will carry the azalea season well
into April. Thanks to a blossom
lengthening spray developed on
the spot by the U. S. Department
of Agriculture, the color is such as
has never been seen before.
By train, plane, and car, visitors
are arriving in Charleston, S. C,,
for the spectacular masses of aza
leas which have sent such experts
as John Galsworthy and Owen
Wister into ectasies. In the other
worldly Cypress Gardens, the mys
terious waters, tinctured black by
towering moss-draped cypresses,
reflect the blazing colors surround
ing the lagoons.
At Middleton Gardens, Ameri
ca’s first and internationally ac
claimed landscaped garden, you
will walk through veritable ean
yons of color—an experience to be
always treasured. At Magnolia vis
itors can readily see why, even be
fore the turn of the century, Bae
deker’s Guide marked with stars
three “musts” for visitors to Amer
ica: Niagara Falls, Grand Canyon,
and Magnolia Gardens.
The three great gardens an
nounce a bargain joint rate—only

MICHAEL’S FASHIONS — SECOND FLOOR g
Bazaar-Square
By Girl Scoufs
Is there a gardener in your
home? Does Grandmother’s birth
day come next month? Is your
bridge club meeting with you
soon? Are you smart enough to
buy Christmas presents now? Or
are you just wishing you could do
something a bit unusual on Thurs~
day?
The Girl Scout bazaar and
square dance at the VFW club
house from 5 to 10 p. m. will solve
all these problems, The whole
idea started with the Junior Plan
ning Board, representatives from
all the troops who meet once a
month, They thought up the
square dance to climax this week,
celebrating the thirty-eighth
birthday of Girl Scouting in Am
erica.
A traveling mission orchestra
came along and offered its servi
ces and even a show,
Building Fund to Benefit °
Meantime, the building com=
mittee was worried about money
to enlarge the Little House at
Barrow, the Log Cabin at Chase,
and to improve Noketchee Camp.
Somebody suggested a bazaar at
which Girl Scouts could display
and soil handcrafts; so few people
know what attractive things Girl
Scouts can make,
So there will be for sale per=
manent garden markers, waste
baskets, tallies, shell jewelry, fig
urines, aprons, pot holders, needle
and comb cases, etc.—to mention
only those which are not sur
glml And all ‘frocoedc go into
e building fund.
For those who are hungry there
will be a deliclous fried chicken
plate at 80c; and for those who
wish lighter refreshments: ham=-
burgers, hot dogs, homemade ice
cream, soft drinks,
There’s no admission charge,
plenty of free entertainment, and
—by the way—an excellent -city
bus schedule to Sunset Drive, Par=
ents and friends who buy, will
encourage the young craftsmen
and at the sgsame time, help a
worthy cause in which all Athens
girls may share,
