His attire, his whole being suggested a way of life foreign to family ties. ',Yet he asked for snowballs and we gave them, wondering all the while if the parents now remembered had been so honored while alive. Pencil and slate in hand, an elderly woman approached. Painstakingly she scrawled the request, "Just one branch or two?" Armed with a bouquet, she turned on us a smile of gratitude that warmed our hearts. Unable to hear melodies of beauty, how good that she could see. From a distance came an acquaintance whose infant grandchild had died .two days earlier. Snowballs to ease a young mother's heart, we thought and the flow- era we placed in her arms somehow seemed right for the babe that had never ILIKOWIL sullied hands or deeds. Untold times we laid, "Surely the snowball must. be aknost stripped." Yet as we went again and again to clip the 'wavy branches, the bush looked symmetrical and untouched. Children, neigh- bora, tottering old men, winsome young mothersstill they came. By night we were beginning to wonder about the ghostly abundance of that one bush. Like a beacon, the white bower in the patch of front lawn 'called to drivers we re-surging by. Conscience-strickecalled having threatened to cut down that bush whose shiirt reign of glory could be so bright. Bouts with black aphids through hot summer- months can provoke ugly ten . timents.

REID PRING in Idaho is like a temperamental childlate, early, indifferent by turns. The calendar of days moving toward May 30 may rush, k at will, while anxious saunter, eyes watch for the splendid succession of crocus, tulips, hyacinths, lilacs, iris, and peonies, knowing that at any moment a sudden cold snap may break the order and erase the hoped-fo- r bloom. Suns rise and sink to rest in totaLdisregard of the yearning for beauty to open. Some years the parade remains unbroken and the day deditated to remembrance tmds-- the humblest yards flush with blossoms.-- - It is the tardy seabush sons that bring the pathos and unadorned plants. Like others, we welch the slow unfolding and wonder what our garden will offer on that day. Year after year the peonies have held back, the his dawdled; but rarely, if ever, has the great snowball bush failed to time its gift of bloom. Last year the eve before Memorial Day began, as it often does, with our resignation to the loss of those flowers that would not appear. Along with friends and loved ones, we' made the useless trek to wholesale growers to be even the stock answer, "Late frost, no flowers." Florists had sold out days before and wires clogged by from other bereft communities promised no relief. "Well," we said, "there's still the snowballs." t And then it began. rust, a phone call from a prominent woman of wealth. Could she buy our snowballs? "Buy?" we answered, "who ever heard of buying snowballs?" Her mother's favorite flower, she continued by way of explanation. In the end, she came and we loaded the blossoms into the car.
