CORRESPONDENT Telephone, Fret Soil HOpkini 4-5524 Visit Lund's Scenic Garden Mr. and Mrs. Harold Wilmot, residents of Gun Lake, and Mr. and Mrs. Ray Isenbarger of Irons recently visited Lund's' Scenic Garden located 22 miles from Traverse City by way of Cedar City and Maple City.

Founders of the garden include Mr. and Mrs. E. K. Lund of Maple City Route 1, and according to the folder they believe the garden to be the only one of its kind in ex, istence.

Each scene depicts an important event from the life of the Lord as he walked the shores of Galilee, and prior to starting work on the garden the founders did much traveling, held special meetings in various denominations. It was while they were making scenery for one of the plays she had written, that the idea of the garden came to them. Work was started in 1938 with paintings but they had no idea where to place it. In 1944 they were holding meetings in Traverse City when 16 acres of land to be used for the garden were donated by Mr. and Mrs.

James Swanson and the actual work started in the spring of 1945. This continued for four summers and they did the work such as clearing brush, felling trees. Lumber was secured from the trees and they continued to paint. On Aug. 15, 1948, the garden was dedicated and it is considered one of the most beautiful religious spots in Northern Michigan.

The Wilmots tell of there being no admission charge but contributions can be made. The motive of this is that people with large families will feel free to visit the garden and a wheel chair is available free of charge for those unable to walk. Persons from foreign countries upon arrival here visit this garden and each year a new interest is added to the garden in the form of one new scene. This garden is endorsed by churches of all faiths and it is open daily from Memorial Day through first Sunday in October. When it is dark enough for the lights to take effect, the night tours are started.

Persons visiting the garden tell of the scenes being almost unbelievable. Lecturing adds to the interest. Scenes include The Annunciation, The Nativity, The Flight into Egypt, The Temple, The Carpenter Shop, The Baptism of Jesus, The Woman at the Well, The Good Shepherd, Jesus Blessing the Children, The Mount of Olives, Our Lord's Last Supper, The Garden of Gethsemane, Pilate's Hall, The Crucifixion, The Resurrection, The Sea of Galilee, The Road to Emmaus, The Ascension, The Lily Garden, Jesus Knocking at the Door, The World For Jesus and The Benediction. The trail is 1,400 feet long. Aquilla Young Is Honor Guest Miss Aquilla Young, daughter of Mr.
