WIMRTEL40 ovmbr , 93 Flower Cuild Still Conveys Message of Cheer The Chicago Plant, Flower, and Fruit guild, when in session last week, decîded to concen- trate ail of its holiday efforts to Christmas giving this season, in- stead of dividing it with Thanks- giving donations, as had been planned originally, according to Mrs. Charles Van Deursen of 1101 Forest avenue, Wilmette, chairman for the Milwaukee division of the guild. Ilirougli its own members, and its cooperating. channels, garden clubs, and the public at large, its purpose is to make scrap books, to coilect jellies, and little gifts to spread the spirit of Christmas into homes and liospital wards, and other charitable institu- tions, wliere there is illness among the underprivileged. To ail of its friends' the guild makes its appeal. Mrs. Van Deursen, whose phone is Wilmette 2440, will give further in- formation about tlie Guild's Christ- mas plans,. With a little story, Mrs. Van Deursen reveals only one instance of the 'happiness and appreciation just ordinary plants from someone's gar- den can bring. Whule accompanying a visiting nurse just récently, Mrs. Van Deursen, called upon "Pa and Ma," an inter- esting and deliglitful couple in the eighties, on the relief rolîs for some time. "Ma" is crippled and lias been bedridden, but is now able to go about on crutches. Visiting nurses, wlienever possible, have been taking plants to lier because she "lias a way witli flowers." Her callers discovered that she has nurtured every flower-, ing plant sent in from ,some garden until it went to seed, keeping the seeds and putting tliem* in tiny bags, eacli labelled, and put away until the time "When, Pa and I have tlie tiny house we have always dreamed of having, we will plant the seeds in our friendship garden."
