Thousands of Climbing Hard Drinking (runlets She Caused Ca Capture Special to The Tribune (Copyright 1934 by the North American Newspaper Alliance Inc) MILWAUKEE Wis May 1-The Judas who betrayed Edith Cavell shot by Germans as a spy in 1919 was a woman not a man according to a confession made by Countess Maria Von Kallenbach to Ernst Stirn Milwaukee economist and mountain climber -The confession was made when Mr Stirn and his wife spent their honeymoon in the vicinity of Interlaken climbing the Alps Since 1919 a man named George Gaston Quien has been in a French prison at Clairvaux as the betrayer of the nurse Recently he asked that his case be retried He has continually protested bis innocence Brand Whitlock former American ambassador Belgium is one of the many who has doubted that Quien was the real betrayer of Miss Cavell The story of Countess Von Kallen-back Mr Stirn declares has never before been made public Mr and Mrs Stirn met the countess a fascinating and beautiful woman at their hotel at Interlaken Believes Confession "The countess' confession I have no reason to doubt" Mr Stirn says "She was a woman of supreme egotism and attraction and I do not believe she feared anything in the world We met her through a German diplomat to China and his wife who were vacationing at Interlaken "The diplomat and his wife were estranged and finally went separate ways the husband to Berlin and the wife to Monte Carlo They had a small daughter who left in the care of the wife was turned over to the countess for a few weeks while the mother went to the gambling resort The two women were on terms of intimate friendship "It was through thd little girl that we became closely acquainted with the countess We were much drawn to the child because of her rather evident loneliness and the fact that she was a very lovely and talented girl She could speak five languages was a great mimic and a wonderful toe dancer We wanted to adopt her Admits Betrayal night the countess who confessed she could outdrink any man and apparently could told us that she was the real betrayer of Edith Cavell and that Quien is innocent This is the story in brief: The countess was a doctor of the University of Vienna before the war When war broke out she went to the front There she became friends with members of the Austrian general staff She was terribly wounded during several battles and was shot through the back of the head so that a metal plate had -been inserted Her knee cap at one tune was shattered and the roof of her mouth was partly artificial due to wounds she had suffered told me she had nearly 100 shrapnel in her body" Mr Stirn says with all this she had a violent hatred for the French which is a good beginning for a spy Became German Spy "She left medicine and went into the German secret service Soon after she Was sent to Paris for the express purpose of 'getting' Edith Cavell The countess could speak French fluently as well as several other languages She ingratiated herself into the nurse's confidence and finally went to live with her She posed as a Frenchwoman who hated Vie Germans Eventually she enticed Edith to the point of being captured "The countess said she witnessed the execution She told me -that Edith was placed near a stone fence on that morning of October 12 1915 with a handkerchief tied over her eyes Just before the final volley of shots Edith who had protested the handkerchief tore It off and cried Vive La Francel' Licenses Bring Higher Quality Foods to Market Licensing of wholesale dealers and trucker in Montana has resulted in Improving the quality of fruits and vegetable told and bettering condition ox the wholes! trade according to a letter received by the state department of agriculture from A Stafford Montana commissioner of agriculture As well as taking out a license wholesale dealers and truckers in Montana must pack their fruits and vegetables in new containers properly graded and marked Mr letter in part says: "Those who have engaged in the trucking business have ceased to raise objection to the $100 license fee as they have found that the protection afforded them in preventing competition by the bootleggers of low grade fruits and vegetables has cessed to be a menace "I do not mean by this that we have not had some difficulty in en forcing the act but in most instances the parties arrested have pleaded guilty and very few second violation were found Altogether the law has afforded us Vie protection we needed and desired and to a greater extent than we had anticipated" SOCIETY USES TYPEWRITER The

of the mountains farther north the altitude being close to 11-000 feet At Brain Head the road turns sharply southward through growths of older and larger conifers onto the Markagunt plateau which includes Cedar Breaks Thus one reaches this noted natural wonder through the back door so to speak Time spent at the breaks depends upon the individual but the unususl beauty and majesty of the entire acenorama deserves a prolonged visit Coal Creek Canyon Next to Cedar Breaks the gem of the trip is Coal Creek canyon drop ping rapidly away from the plateau toward Cedar City Here the flower display

What About a Rock Garden for the Small Home? So many thousands of rock piles have been built in small home grounds and labeled rock gardens without the slightest excuse for their existence that one almost becomes afraid of the term The many strange erections with pointed rocks towering upwardi with rocks of every known color and texture with little or no planting and that perhaps of annuals or of plants which never saw an Alpine meadow look like so many stonemason's nightmares They are not rock gardens The term itself rock garden might be misleading so that the amateur perhaps thinks It refers to a garden or collecUon of rocks That is why perhaps we have those among us who proudly point to each rock and describe what part of the globe it came from Realizing this misnomer our English cousins who no doubt lead the world in this form of gardening have started a movement to squelch the term rock garden and use the more understandable one of Alpine garden Why do we have rock or Alpine gardens? Not above all that we may become rock collectors but that we may grow successfully a number of choice gema of plants natives of Alps or of high mountain meadows where nature imposes special conditions These plants usually grow among rocks nestling by the crags or with their roots in some crevice between two rocks but they also may grow on reckless but always always they Inhabit the high places of the earth where their roots are covered by deep snows lor many months each year Summer comes to such spots with a rush and the hot sun Bhlnes on the little plants inducing quick maturity The face of the flower is sunbaked but the roots are cool and moist fed by the melting Alpine snows In our gardens then If we wish to have the great pleasure of growing these Alpine plants we try to give them ts natural conditions as in our power and her the rocks come to our help By burying large rocks a great part of their height underground we supply the deep cool root run underneath which auch plants demand Also the rocks arise like the walls of a room and protect these plants many of which are extremely shy from being smothered to death by mor lusty plants which grow in the ordinary herbaceous border This then Is our reason for making a rock In placing our rocks let us emulate nature Go a mil or two from horns and you will see anywhere in Utah some of the finest natural rock gardens in ths world and you will observe that rocks rest on their broadest sides not on a tiny bass with peaks tower-tog upward like bizarre tombstone after a tornado There really should be a law against some of the erections which face the public highways fondly labeled rock garden by their misdirected makers where they are seen by the casual but uninformed passerby who nine times out of ten says to himself' 4 i tf jl 1 A Si "Gosh going home to make me a rock garden like that!" Because he has never seen anything like it before he imagines it a thing of worth and beauty and wants to emulate What might happen if an irate father becoming tried beyond his patience by suitor kicked the young man off the porch and landed him in the middle of such a rock garden there to be impaled on the peaks? Remember then when you contemplate making a rock garden that such a garden is made for the plants it will accommodate first of all and that we should make a natural looking outcrop of rocks not a geological display Garden dubs SALT The roae-ehew held last Sunday by the Salt Lake Flower Garden club in th ballroom of th Hotel Utah was one of the most successful ever staged by that organization A perfect bloom of Joanna Hill displayed by Mrs Richard Rletting was adjudgedqueen of th and the runner up a bloom of Betty Sutter entered by Mrs Alice Williams was named "Lady in Besides hundreds of ribbon awards sweepstakes wera awarded to outstanding entries in each class These were won by Mrs Smith (14) Mrs William Kirkland and Mrs Klettmg for rotes by Mrs Wallace Woolley for irises Mrs Wool-ley for spring flowets Mrs Marlin Large and Robert Casto for peonies and the following for artistic displays: Mrs Smjth Miss Mildred I Beauty Treatments fog this radiant event very epeolaUy priced un-ui after om meneementl John Wood is an amateur flower grower of Murray who this month can show an unusually good display of climbing roses The variety is climbing American beauty and trellises atjhe home at 51 East Forty-eighth South street are literally laden with thousands of the rich rose pink blooms in spite of the fact that the winter of 1932-933 killed them to th ground Mr Wood was street supervisor of Murray for 20 years but is now retired is able to devote the time he desires to his hobby of gardening ST LOUIS WASHED UP ST LOUIS This city figuratively "washed its dirty during the biggest campaign in the history of the city recently School children who cooperated with their parents reported they had performed 28335 odd Job as compared with only 21337 during last campaign hi i i AGED CANADIAN INDIAN DEAD MONTREAL (UP) Frank Hill the oldest Indian on the Iroquois reservation' at Caughnwaga near here is dead He died after contracting his first illness of his life a throat disease He was in his 88th year and had lived all his life on th reservation Bancroft Mr A Alford Mrs Stevenson Miss Florence Jessup Miss' Rhpda Williams Judges were Fred Augsburger Winder Hernten Thorup Mrs Permanent Wave and Color Rinse Youthful by a highly specialized A operator 850 value 1 Regular 225 Combination Shampoo color rinse fingerdrave and mani- 1 CA cure--iLll four for only XnJM EXTRA SPECIAL THIS WEEK An Oil Shampoo to stimulate and reluster your hair and fingerwave Regular 100 AA combination special Xlv Salt Lakt'i most dlstiriulshad Beauty Salon Every typ of beauty work oxciuiiva eouneticj professional coni ulta tion Second Floor CORN BAGS INSTEAD OF BEAN QUINCY-Mass (UP) Because it is cheaper corn may replace beans Maud Chegwidden Mrs Joel Nibleyjin the bean bags children use onlcastward at Beaver for a 20-mile run and -Miss Grace Halverson iQuincy playgrounds this summer iup the mountain to lovely At Cedar City the main highway is entered for the journey homeward If more lake fishing is desired turn.
