Appeal For Donations1 From Garden Owners, 0fThe North Shore The Chicago Plant, FloNver and Fruit guild is again appeal- ing to the garden owners of the -north shore to share the sur- plus of their gardens with the city's underprivileged.. A tinv bouquet f r o m each, garden would s welI immneasurably the total contributions to the Guild, without imposing any hardship on the owners of even the s'miall- est gardens. Ail flowers collected by. the Guild are sent to hospitals, settiements, and Visiting Nurse Association stations. They are then distributed to thou- sands of patients in hospitals and homes. Hot, sultry, summer days bring added discomfort and discour- agement to these shut-ins, and a cheerful littie bouquet of flowers is to themn like a cool breath f rom the countryside. Onie who is not in f re- quent contact with them can hardly appreciate their sentiments. A su- pervisor of the Visiting Nurse associ- ation wrote the fol1owing note to the guild about one of hier patients: "Just a few days ago we found a woman who had gently scraped some old pink wax sweet peas in oriter to make them look more like real. flow- ers for the summer. The posy of fresh flowers which wvas sent to bier was a pleasant surprise which made lier- very happy." Thle Guild.collects fruit,* vegetables, jams and jellies as 'well as flowers, Here again, small contributions are just as acceptable as large ones. Tuesday is Flower Guild Day for Wilmette.
