Sadie Hatfield, extension

list for Texas! A. & M. Col

had in the garden during the
winter by the use of shrub-
bery which produce bright
berries during the winter.
Shrubs require much less
water .and much less work
to grow than annual flower,
Proper care, including spray-
ing, dusting, and fertiliz-
ing, is important, but there

for tender plants.

Mrs. Josephine Johnson, 27,
got her 4-year-old twins, Pa-
tricia and Joanner and her
2-year-old son, John, out of
their blazing home-i- but it
took a bit of doing.

the children to run to the

eri, Mrs. Johnson dis-
ered the youngsters had-
followed her instructions.
She found all three hiding
under a bed on the second
floor. Mra. Johnson got Jo-
anne and John to the street
but Patricia broke away and
ran upstairs to hide under
the bed again. A second trip
brought the little girl
safety before flames des-
. troyed the interior of the
Johnson home.

Philip Williams, gifted violinist
who will appear here on Feb? :10th
under the sponsorship of the
Yoakum Conceit Association is
no long-haired, one-track minded
being! It is said that his music
has a greater appeal to the every-
day world than that of any other
artist on the concert stage today.
Those who know 'Mr. 'Williams
say that this is so because he not
only lives “in” but l;ves“with“
the work-n-day world. Ilia hob-
bies are earthy. He is a crack
shirt with the pistol ami the hold-
er of ninny vhnnipionships. In
the Air Corps during the war,
Philip Williams taught thousands
of American airmen the use of
small arms. And he is equally at
home with a rod and reel. •
Air assiduous student of every
school of musical thought, Mr.
Williams possesses a repertoire
of utmost breadth. Every major
Concerto and Sonata ef both the
ronuuitie and modern periods have
been performed by him, ami his
]«rtgrnms are highly cultivated
