You should not cut back needled evergreens below their last growth.

In con- trast, you can prune deciduous and broad-leafed evergreens as much as you like. No matter which kind of hedges you have planted in you garden, be sura to begin training and shaping them as soon as they start to grow. It is Important to trim hedge so that its sides are vertical or slightly slanted inward toward the top. In this way, the sun can reach the lower bran- ches as well as the higher ones.

BY HOWARD KELLY MEMIER AMERICAN GEM SOCIETY JEWELRY REFLECTS THE MAN There was a time when a man's jewelry collection consisted of a watch, a pair of cufflinks and a ring.

Maybe someone had gifted him with an identification bracelet. Those were the confines of masculinity. Of course there was also a time when women wore only dresses and weren't allowed the right to vote or the right to smoke. Those days are gone Today men's jewelry is an exciting market, one which allows the man to express his individuality. Ties and tacs, trench cuf- fs and links are still very smart, but they now can be allocated to preferred times and places.

The man has the option of wearing an open shirt baring a rich gold neck chain or han- dsome pendant even with a suit! Bracelet styles have broken out of the ID mold. Cut-out monograms and names link up to chains. Cuff bracelets have also come to men in hammered and other textured finishes. Diamonds and colored stones are worked into many of the new designs. The choice available facilitates self-expression and allows men to share in the joys of fine jewelry and the magic of gemstones.
