The finding of a revolver, blackjack, flashlight, skel- eton keys and long list of safe combinations in Love's grip gave rise to suspicions of the officers that he was a yegg, possibly making a specialty of cracking safes. — April 12, 1924 90 years ago...

Fundraiser Firefighters to hold boot drive CouRTeSy PhoTo By Kathy Bramhall Plants and trees have been on this earth millions of years, even before the di- nosaurs. Here are four "dino- saur" plants that will be in- teresting to grow. norFolK island Pine/ar- aucaria heteroPhylla » We often see these pyramid shaped confers, 4-5 feet tall, in containers in home or offices. Not a true pine, this tree is an ancient spe - cies from the South Pacific. Captain Cook discovered these 200' giants in 1774 on Norfolk Island near Austra - lia and brought them back for cultivation. These are strictly tropical, very sus- ceptible to frost damage. In our climate they must stay indoors. MonKey Puzzle tree/ar- aucaria araucana » Ever- green confer native to Chile & Argentina. Popular as a garden novelty as it has a prehistoric look with rope- like branches with spiny glossy overlapping leaves covering the entire branch— enough to "puzzle a climb - ing monkey". There are fos- sils of this tree dating back 60 million years. It has large edible pine-nut flavored seeds. It is considered the world's most primitive living conifer and is on the global endangered species list. sago PalM/cycas rev- oluta » This 150 million year old "living fossil" was once found on almost every continent. Sago's were first cultivated in the 1770's. It is neither fern nor palm but looks like both. It is a gym - nosperm native to Japan. Sago are slow growing, de- veloping a 1-2 foot diameter shaggy trunk, topping 10- 12 feet in 50 years. Leaves are dark green and sharp pointed up 4-5 feet long and 4-9 inches wide grow- ing from a center crown. They are best grown in a sunny location directly in the ground in well-draining soil, making an attractive yet impenetrable barrier. ginKgo tree/ginKgo Bi- loBa » Who hasn't heard of this "memory improvement" plant? This oldest liv- ing tree species has no liv- ing relatives and dates back 270 million years. Native of China, it is now widely cultivated. It is an unlikely deciduous confer/gymno - sperm which grows 60-120 feet tall with a broad crown. The attractive leaves are fan shaped, lobed, leathery and greenish-yellow, turn - ing bright yellow in fall. Ginkgo are tough, hardy, deep rooted and wind re- sistant. They make perfect lawn trees, shade trees, or street trees. However, be sure to purchase male trees as the female fruit/seed pro - duces butyric acid which has a very offensive odor. This tree is long-lived in cul- tivation, others in the wild are up to 1,000 years old. Red Bluff Garden Club meets the last Tuesday of most months.

Bella, actually belongs to my daughter, Bonnie. Baxter is my dog. Since neither of them will be in the Red Bluff Daily news at the present time. Who knows they may want to jump back onto a newspaper page. Ac - tually I talk to Baxter as we go for a walk. I tell him that the news paper really needs more space for many words about many things. Bax - ter seems to be adjusting to our walks as he stops at the comer so that many children may pet him as they wait to get on the bus. Dog Baxter appears to be very happy when the children brush Baxter's back, he appears to be de - lighted as each one calls his name. They quickly get on the school bus and wave at Baxter as he walks away. Baxter is a Dachshund who is one of a German breed, he has short legs, a long body and ears. Bax - ter has a tan coat he is a bit frightened of other dogs and people he thinks might hurt him. Other than be - ing a little afraid of people he has appeared to enjoy our daily walk early in the morning. The walk is good for both Baxter and me. Each day, Baxter lets me know that he wants to go for a walk, the first thing he wants is to go to the comer where about 10-12 chil - dren stand in line to wait for their school bus. Bax- ter's desire is to have each of these wonderful children pet him. They all like him and he likes them. Baxter is timid but is very anxious to visit these children. Baxter is a great com - panion to me as we walk home, he began to be in- terested in the many yards having wonderful flowers in bloom. Hopefully we will have some more rain since we have not had enough rain these last two years. As we continued to walk home Baxter and I were thinking of the boys and girls who were happy and joyful as they pet Bax - ter and began to go up the steps of the school bus. The children had sparkling eyes and boundless energy. The looks on the faces of the children appeared to be ready to tackle the learning at their school rooms. Imag - ine how these children, who discover learning, use their sparkling eyes, their happy faces that are truly joy - ful. We noted how much joy these children have as they gain the ability to learn the many doors toward success and cognitive achievement. Okay Baxter thank you for being so happy during our walk and our visit with the wonderful children who are gaining the ability to read.
