Now I’ll say— what you gonna do? You can’t put signs all over your place saying—” plaint* don’t turn around over here in this flower bed for it is f uli of bulbs just coming up.” People would think you were crazy if you painted a sign red and stuck it up somewhere at the front of your house—and on it the words in black—“DANGER—lawn just planted with grass seed—don’t drive your horse and buggy over it.’’ Likewise they might think you a fit subject for the home across the creek if you fenced in your drive way with barb wire w> that folks could see they were not expected to drive any where else*—now wouldn’t they? And also—when nice people are going to ride and they decide they want to turn around and go back the way they came instead of following the road— should you have to put up a green sin at tho edge of your yard saying —’’ Please—if you just MUST turn around hero—don’t back up into my tulip bed—it will be right behind you—there is plenty of room—watch your step.” Now—honestly—think about this folks—(of course I know that not a one of you who are read ing this EVER did such a think in ALL your live*—but there are SOME who have and do.)

This is just a warning to all con cerned—it is merely may be interested—that anybody can say almost anything to me—but when they get to fouling around my crepe myriJt; when they step on a red tulip; when they cut across my lawn in wet weather or allow their car to run up onto the edge of the gras* just because they are not look ing at where they are going ;when ACTURES TAKEN AT G.
