POLICELOGS COTTONWOOD Do you wonder what it would be like to grow up in Italy? What would you eat for breakfast? What do chil- dren in Sweden do to cel- ebrate their birthdays? If you were born in Greece or parts of Africa, do you know that you would throw your tooth on the roof when it fell out to entice the tooth person to send you a new one? All these things and more will be read and talked about as the Summer Sto- rytime program gets under- way for the session. "We had such success with the topic of chil- dren growing up in differ- ent cultures in different lands during our Week of the Young Child celebra- tion that we decided to ex- pand the subject for use in our program this summer," said Gayle Harrington, di- rector. Harrington, along with Jennifer Bragg, an educa- tor and former school ad- ministrator from Ander- son, will once again be facilitating the Summer Storytime and Reading Program at the library in Cottonwood. Each week, a person as- sociated with or perhaps having grown up in a fea- tured country will be a special guest at Storytime. Books, stories and some- times songs of the country will be featured so that the children in attendance can learn a bit more about the country being spotlighted. Then a craft or activity re- lating to the stories, and a snack or sample of food from that country will be shared in the meeting room of the library. During last week's kick- off event, the country of England was discussed and read about. For a craft project, a double-decker bus was colored and royal crowns were made. Digestive bis- cuits like those that might be served at tea time were sampled. Storytime in Cottonwood runs 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. each Wednesday. This par- ticular Storytime session runs through Aug. 6. "We try to accommo- date a bit older age group during the summer, as we know that there are older siblings along for the jour- ney as well," Harrington said. "We try to get them in- volved as much as we can, and have partnered with Barnes & Noble to entice the school-aged children to read during the summer by earning a free book." For more information, call 347-4818. The library is at 3427 Main St. in Cottonwood. COTTONWOOD Travelaroundthe world at the library A blue pigeon, believed to be of the carrier variety, was picked up on the lawn of C. A. Gilston, North Monroe street, Thursday, bearing evidences of prob- ably having started from some place with a message and lost it enroute. Sher- iff M. O. Ballard was no- tified and took the pigeon to his office where he care- fully inspected a tiny band of brass and on which the following numbers and let- ters were inscribed: 44-R- 23-OHB. The band encircled the right leg of the pigeon and with it was a rubber band, indicating that a message might have been slipped in between the two bands. — June 26, 1924 90 YEARS AGO...

SCHOLARSHIP FIREFIGHTERS' AWARD By Shirley Felder Our new neighbor came by one evening a while ago to visit. When I opened the door and she stepped inside, she said "What is that smell?" I frantically looked over at our dog Sa- die Belle, frowned, and si- lently asked her what did you do? She immediately slumped to the floor, ears drooping and had an in- nocent, hurt look. Mean- while, the neighbor walked over to my open windows overlooking the backyard and said "What is that heavenly smell?" She was looking at our climbing, star jasmine hedge that grows over the terraced rocks in our backyard. I looked back at Sadie Belle to say I was sorry, but she ignored me and stalked off to her bed. The star jasmine is a hardy, low maintenance, evergreen vine whose white blooms carry over into autumn. The flowers open in the evening when the temperature lowers. Few vines are as beautiful or as fragrant. When the blooms release their sweet scent it is indeed heavenly. The jasmine is in the ol- ive family. Common names are Jasmine or Jessamine. The name comes from the Persian name for the plant, yasmin. Because it has been cultivated for so long it is uncertain how it came to Europe. In England, jas- mine was used to cover arbors. In ancient Persia, they extracted its scent by steeping the blossoms in sesame oil and used it for perfume. In China, they combined dried jasmine blossoms with green tea. Thomas Jefferson grew it and planned to cover large tracts of unused garden with Jessamine and hon- eysuckle which may not re- quire attention. It was to be an asylum for wild an- imals. Jasmine can be planted in a sunny or a partially shaded area near a wall, fence or trellis. It can grow 10 to 15 feet, at a rate of 12 inches to 14 inches a year. The only drawback of jas- mine is its floppy growth. They should be spaced about 8 feet apart to avoid overcrowding. Because it grows quickly and is easy to care for, it can serve as a privacy screen or wall. The vines can be trimmed in early spring after the last frost. Regular prun- ing helps promote growth. The star jasmine grows well in our zones 8-9. After my neighbor left, I tried to make up with Sa- die Belle. I told her to get her ball and I would throw it for her. She looked at me, with attitude, as if to say get it yourself. When my husband came home, he asked me what was the matter with the dog. It was too hard to explain.
