BEAUTIFUL APPEARING FROM
RIVER WITH ARBORS LEAD
ING TO WATERS EDGE
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Towle, who
have a comfortable home at Cooper's
; Landing, have, as in previous years.
; a beautiful garden in which is found
i
; a profusion of flowers. The garden
: is the result of Mrs. Towle’s kandi
: work as Mr. Towle is, this summer,
j employed as master mechanic for the
| Bureau of Public Roads Dept., in
| Moose Pass.
Quite often Mrs. Towle sends in to
: her many Seward friends huge bou
, quets of flowers. Until a few days
! ago Geo. Phelps, proprietor of the
Seward News Co., had several vases
filled with them. The flowers have
wonderful coloring, especially the
California poppies, batchelor buttons
and sweet peas and their fragrance
is intoxicating.
