(Continued from Page 1)
Only those who have sunk spade
into earth which has never before
been broken and pounded at the
matted roots until the rich, black
soil has become smooth and fine
under the hot sun know the power
of the earth over man.
We like to think of John Frank-
lin, standing before his lonely cabin
at sunset, shading his eyes and gaz-
ing out over the fields he had won
from the wilderness. That triumph,
too, must have added fuel to the
fire which was growing within him.
——
WHEN JOHN FRANKLIN had
finished his cabin and cleared his
fields he went back over the moun-
tains and brought his wife to their
new home. It was a brave, lovely
world they ruled—a world of rich
summer green and white winter
beauty, of unfrightened fawns and
singing birds, of sun-dappled
streams. and waving grain—a world
which, one day, was darkened by
the shadow of Mrs. Franklin's ill-
ness.
With what inadequate medical
knowledge he possessed, John
Franklin nursed his wife, but one
day death entered the lonely cabin
and John Franklin's wife smiled
peacefully and died. When he had
laid her to rest he took their baby
and carried it tenderly 300 miles
through the wilderness, back to
Connecticut. Then he came home,
alone except for his dog, to the
cabin at Huntington Creek.
Out of tragedy came greatness.
Fate, looking down on the lonely
man, saw that he was ready. The
moment had come. The rest of
Colonel John Franklin's story is in
the history books.
——
REVOLUTION FLAMED in Amer-
ica and a rabble in arms marched to
war. John Franklin deserted his
farm and walked with destiny
through one of the most amazing
careers in American history.
When an invading horde swept
down the Susquehanna it was John
Franklin who marshalled the men
of Huntington and pressed on, even
after defeat and after two other
marching companies had retired. It
was John Franklin, an unlettered
woodsman, who wrote the most
scholarly and authentic account of
the Battle of Wyoming and the Sur-
render of Forty Fort. It was John
Franklin who marched beside Hart-
ley and later with Sullivan in their
vengeful campaigns against the In-
dians who had ravished Wyoming
Valley.
It was John Franklin who, when
war over property rights drenched
the valley in blood, swore over the
mutilated body of a murdered
friend never to stop fighting until
he had won justice for the leader-
less Yankees. It was John Franklin
who, riding out in guerilla warfare
night after night, struck at the
bonds which the grasping Pennsyl-
vania land promoters were forging

Noxen, Is Laid To Rest
Mrs. Genevieve Munkatchy, 34,
a life-long resident of the Noxen

and was buried on Saturday. Al-
though Mrs. Munkatchy had been
ailing for some time, her death
came unexpectedly, as the result of
a severe attack of asthma.
She is survived by her husband,
William; three children, Mary, Bet-

som of South Run, and three sis-
ters, Mrs, Emery Newell, Noxen;

about the valuable Yankee holdings.
John Franklin had finer weapons
than his sword and gun, though.
When | Governor Penn sent the
suave, brilliant Timothy Pickering,
Harvard graduate and a member of
Washington’s cabinet, to conciliate
the Yankees, Franklin, the Yankee
woodsman, met the famous intellec-
tual in debate, and by some miracle
of inner strength out-maneuvered
and out-talked Pickering so that
the great statesman himself became
a reluctant admirer of the Yankee
zealot.
It was Franklin who, when ev-
erything else had failed, dreamed
of a new state—Westmoreland, the
Fourteenth © Commonwealth. The
capitol had been chosen, the officers
had been selected and Ethan Allen
and his Green Mountain Boys were
poised at Athens, ready to march
against the Pennsylvanians, when
an alarmed Assembly, by a legisla-
tive trick, brought an end to the
war.
——
FRANKLIN'S DREAM collapsed
but he fought on. It was a new
kind of a war, waged in the capitol |
at Harrisburg, without guns or hors- |
es or wild night riding, but he was!
good at it, for eventually he forced |
his enemies to embody: in legisla-
tion the just principles for which
he stood.
His life’s work done, he retired |
to Athens, which was to have been |
the capitol of his new state. A
saintly, gentle, forgetful man, he
lived among people who idolized
him more as the realization of his
greatness grew. When he died
there were those who said they
heard trumpets blowing for him on
the other side.
For a century historians have
been puzzled by the spectacular |
brilliance of this man who was a)
humble woodsman.~ Perhaps it isi
because for them his life begins on
the day he walked away from Hunt-
ington Creek and into public life.
The first part of his life is, to
them; unexplored territory. If they
would understand Franklin's clarity
of vision, his strength of purpose,
his flaming ideals, they, too, must
find a spot along Huntington Creek |
and live alone there for awhile, as|
young Franklin ‘did.
The answer, which is a thing be-
yond the words we know, awaits
them there.

In Lily Planting
Mrs. Kent Recommends
Growing From Seed
By SARA EVANS KENT
Several months ago a friend sent
me some lily seeds that had come
from the garden of Mrs. Mortimer
Fox at Peekskill N. Y. She is a
well known amateur specialist in the
growing and hybridizing of lilies
and I feel very fortunate to have
some of the seeds from her lilies.
They arrived at a time when it was
not possible for me to germinate
them myself and I asked Howard
Ide at Hillside Farm to do it for
me. Everything concerning plants
that Howard undertakes to do is a |
success and these lily seed were no
exception. In a month or so he gave
me some flats filled with what ap-
peared to be short blades of glass.
I transplanted each blade, one by
one on two inch squares into a cold
frame. There were well over a
thousand and every one has lived
so far. I plan to leave them in
position until the autumn of 1941
when they will be large enough to
transplant into a permanent place.
Such long range growing and
planning may seem optimistic but I
have tried it many times before
with other plants and I am always
surprised at the rapid passage of
time and the ultimate success. Ev-
ery seedling will not live to matur-
ity but a few survive and they are
ample satisfaction for the effort. I
grow lilies: from seed to avoid in-
troducing into the garden the dread
fungous disease Botrytis, to which
all kinds of lilies are subject. When
one buys lily bulbs one never can
be certain that Botrytis was not
present in the plantation from
which they came. The only abso-
ute, safe, sure method is to grow
a lily from seed and I would rather
bide my time and have healthy lil-
ies two or three years hence than
to run the risk of losing all the
bulbs I have bought. If Botrytis
appears in the lilies already planted
they can be sprayed with bordeaux
mixture and if that does not check
the disease the only thing to do is
to dig up the plants, bulbs, roots
and tops and burn them.
It has been my experience that
lilies flourish in this environment
if they are planted in light, loamy
soil to which leafmold and bone-
meal in liberal quantities have been
added. Good drainage is essential
for lilies as it is for any plant which
{ ground.
Joe Elicker Arrives
From Nassau, Bahamas

relations officer with the Develop-
ment Board in Nassau, Bahamas,
where the Duke and Duchess of
Windsor recently took up residence,
arrived in Dallas this week and will
be in the States for a short visit.
grows from a bulb, but lilies want
plenty of moisture when they are
growing and thoroughly enjoy a
rainy spring such as we have had
this year.
Many persons think that the less
well known lilies are difficult to
grow and therefore restrict them-
selves to the common sorts, 1. tig-
rinum and 1. candidum but with a
little patience and much thought
and effort many beautiful varieties
can be grown in large quantities. I
have found that 1. Henryi and 1.
dauricum among the yellow lilies;
grow and do extremely well directly
in front of some junipers and low
hemlocks and I recommend them
for easy culture. For beauty and
a high percentage of return there is
nothing quite equal to the regal
lily. It multiplies rapidly, survives
abuse and neglect, responds as
does a Persian kitten to kindness
and is equally beautiful out of doors
in the garden or used as a cut flow-
er in the house. I have regals in
many places in the garden; I have
given away small bulbs by the hun-
dred and my entire stock came
from a dozen bulbs the size of a
walnut which were given me sev-
eral years. ago. When I dig up the
bulbs to remake the bed every two
or three years I find many young
bulbs around each large bulb. These
I place in the new bed at the same
depth as the large bulb, about five
inches from the surface of the
They do ‘not bloom the
first year but they grow rapidly if
well fed and will bloom the second
year.
On a bright sunny July day there
is nothing comparable to a planting
of these lilies combined with the
new hybrid delphiniums. I never
smell their delicate perfume than
I am reminded of the story of their
discovery in the mountains of west-
ern China by an English plant ex-
plorer, Ernest Wilson. There is no
more romantic story in the long his-
|tory of plant exploration than his
journey and the hardships which he
endured to find this lily and to
bring it back to Europe and Ameri-
ca for us to enjoy in our gardens.
Plant them now in the autumn that |
you may enjoy them in July.
Open Chapel In Temple
On Tryon, N. C., Estate
(Continued from Page 1)
a third term New York newspapers
ran picture layouts and a Holly-
wood manager sent an offer of a
movie job, which Mrs. Harding
promptly turned down. Later, Mrs.
Harding corrected the newspapers
and said that Faith’s prediction was
only that President Roosevelt would
run again if the people demanded.
In the meantime a group of in-
fluential students of psychic phe-
nomena had become interested in
the little girl. She was christened ~
about a year ago in a Buddhist
temple on the estate of one of her
patrons at Stamford, Conn. More
strangers began visiting the home.
Home Becomes Shrine
Finally, early this summer work-
men began levelling the hilly back
yard of the Harding home for a
garden which radiates about a
circle which, it was announced, is
to be the site of a marble, glass-
topped shrine.
In payment for the work, the con-
tractor—and other people who had
business with the newly-organized
Cross and Circle Foundation—re-
ceived checks on the First National
Bank of Dallas signed “Entity.” “En-
tity” is Faith’s spirit control spokes-
men for the Foundation explained.
At 5, Faith has scrapbooks load-
ed with more newspaper and mag-
azine publicity than ‘most people
accumulate in their entire lives. A
healthy, smiling, bright-eyed,
blonde child, she seems to carry the
burden of her authority lightly and
plays as gaily as her brothers and
sisters. What the future holds for
her depends upon who is right—her
devout followers or her bored critics.
Boys And Girls To Win
Bwards For Good Conduct
Scores of boys and girls are flock-
ing to Bert & Company, cut-rate
store, Dallas, to join that alert or-
ganization’s Junior Business Build-
ers’ Club. Membership in the club
is limited to children between 8 and
15 years.
Mrs. Helen Harlan, national or-
ganizer of the club, spent two days
at the store helping the youngsters
get organized and explaining the de-
tails and aims of the club. All who
join will be given honor credits for
regular church and Sunday school
attendance as well as special honor
awards for good deportment and
scholarship in school.
Members of the club will be eligi-
ble to win bicycles, radios, footballs,
baseball outfits, roller skates, cam-
eras and scores of other valuable
awards.
Boys and girls are urged to visit
Bert & Company this week and join
the club. Their parents, too, will
find the work of the club interest-
ing and will want their boys and
girls to secure the business and
character training the club affords.
