Twenty-five years ago we didn't have anything to brag about. So if you are not a i ed with them, by all means try to do so.

Saw some wonderful Clematis a few days They are climbing vines, flowers four six inches across, and come in many colors. They like a limey soil, shade about FRED. their roots, and a tall pole to climb upon. Petunias are again our most colorful annuals, and the new forms don't spread out like the ones we had a few years back. Time to trim evergreens now, nnd kind of late, but not too late to spray for bagworms.

I said some time ago that if you hired your spraying done, your sprayman would likely use a combination spray. Guess I should have explained that many of the insecticides and fungicides can be mixed into one spray that will serve a two-fold purpose. Trust your local spray- man, but stay away from others. Nuff said. DEAR MR.

Also, is a maple tree better than an elm for a good shade tree? I've heard that elms get so many bugs. Thank you for your GEORGE CHAMPLIN.

ANSWER: The best time to plant trees is, with a few exceptions, from the time leaves drop in fall until they leaf out again in spring. A few trees such as magnolia, birch and flowering cherry seem to transplant better in spring. I would not, at present, at least, plant elm trees. Soft maples grow fast, but trees are brittle and can be damaged in a windstorm. Hard maples are tops, but slow- growing.

Also good are pin oak, sweet gum and the tuliptree (yellow poplar). DEAR MR. CLAUSEN: Since your knowledge of flowers and gardening seems to be unlimited, I am wondering if you could fell me anything about the Bird of Paradise plant. In February 1962, I purchased a two-year plant from a nursery. I was under the impression that after its ninth leaf, the plant would bear flowers.

Since I have owned it, it has lost three leaves, and now possesses 10, with the eleventh on its way. I have transplanted it once to a larger container and am thinking about transplanting it again in a few weeks to another larger pot. The height of the plant is now 36 inches from top of the container. Can you tell me when to expect flowers? Its growth certainly does not seem stunted. Thank you kindly.

May I add that I have certainly gained a lot of valuable information about flowers, trees and gardening in general from your weekly MARK LAMBERT, Belmont Village, Godfrey. ANSWER: The Bird of Paradise flower is an exotic plant to grow if one has, patience. The plants sold as 2-year-olds are grown from seed, and under same growing conditions will vary a good deal as to the length of time from seed to bloom. As to blooming after so many leaves, that's just sales talk. I got one that finally bloomed after 15 or so leaves.

As with most plants grown from seed, every now and then a superior plant appears. These plants are divided, the divisions retaining the superior qualities of the original mother plant, or clone, as it is called. Such plants are field-grown in California for the cut-flower market. If a division of a good clone is housegrown, it should prove much better than a seedling. But I guess you would have to go to California to get one.

It may interest you to know that perfect leaves of the paradise plant bring about half as much as the flower. Take care of your plant as you have been, and I'm sure next year you'll be rewarded with one of the most exciting flowers that Mother Nature created. Good luck. If you have a question pertaining to gardening, write to Fred Clausen In care of the Alton Telegraph. He will answer It in future columns.

By JOSEPH WHITNEY unhappiness. rot most of these men, getting tattooed was 6 aftermath of a drunken spree, As a rule their decorations were acquired on impulse to impress a girl friend. More of the tatoo- ed men were unmarried or vorced, indicating difficulty ifl creating a masculine image, Is yawning a pathological symptom? Answer: Rarely; most physicians approve of yawning unless it occurs in their examining room. They tend to feel that yawning has some mild therapeutic value and should not be stifled except to avoid undue embarrassment.

Yawning reduces lethargy and tends to sharpen our mental processes. When we yawn and stretch upon awakening there is a stimulation of various muscles and blood vessels that may have been compressed due to awkward sleeping posture. Are tattooed men a masculine lot? Answer: Far from it. In a recent study of 400 patients in a Veterans Administration hospital, it was noted that 65 who were- tattooed had many more behavior deviations and greater 1964, King Features, inc.) Can G. Ps.

give psychotherapy? Answer: Yes, but few general practitioners have time to do so. Psychiatrist. Donald B. Koegler recently told the California Medical Association that mild emotional disorders are best treated by non-psychiatrist physicians. "The physician who does not spend 10 to 15 minutes with his anxious patient," he said, "is missing an opportunity to use one of his most effective therapies." Five to 10 weeks usually produce improvement, he said, "if there is going to be any." A Lovelier You Home Spa Means Cool Comfort By MARY SUE MILLER One of the best summer resorts never gets a plug in the travel, folders.

But penny for penny, and day by day, it provides more cool comfort, beauty benefits, and tension relief than you can get elsewhere. It's your own bathtub! To reap those bensions, you have only to make a production of baths on hot afternoons or bedtimes. Start with a bath tray a serving tray will do if it snugs into the tub's rim. On it place cleansing cream and tissue, a body brush and standing mirror; add a glass of fruit juice or a cup of hot tea. Now plug the tub and place a fragrant bar of bath soap on top; let warm water gush in so that the soap froths and fills the water with sudsy bubbles.

Meanwhile cap your hair. Ance entubbed, cream-cleanse your face. Then lie back and sip your beverage. The duo of warm water outside and beverage in- s.de opens the pores to the extent where the suds cleans and the body heat escapes with extra efficiency. After a long soak, scrub the hands and feet.

Then, as you let out the soapy water, let in warm rinse water and have a general scrub-up. Before you are through you will be cleansed, rinsed and at peace with the world. And as cool as those fabled naiads in their mountain streams! YOUR TO aside your grooming doubts and worries!

Publishers Newspaper Syndicate Sheinwold on Bridge Busy Crime Lab Sifts Bridge Reports By ALFRED SHEINWOLD National Men's Team Champion When most of my readers are sleeping peacefully in their beds, the lights are still burning in my little crime laboratory. Reports from all parts of the world come in and go under the microscope. And every day the word goes out: "Another crime." Take this report, for example, from far-off Sofia. A Bulgarian merchant was found in his shop with 19 knives sticking in him but no sign of robbery. The question is: Was there foul play? Accompanying the report is the account of a bridge hand played by the merchant.

He was declarer on the hand shown in the diagram. East won the first trick with the ace of clubs and returned the five of clubs to declarer's king. South led a trump, and West took the ace. Back came a club, and East ruffed. East thereupon cashed the ace of hearts, and the next thing anybody knew the air was full of knives.

Difficult Case It was a difficult case, because it was hard to know why any law abiding citizen would be carrying 19 knives on his person. Bui then it came to light that the deceased merchant sold knives in his shop, and so the case was cleared up. Justified homicide was the obvious verdict. After winning the second trick with the king of clubs, South clearly should take dummy's College Notes Michael K. Wyatt, son of Mr.
