BOYSCOUTS City Marshal Montgom- ery was steered into an April First joke yesterday morning that occupied his attention for a brief period and made the center of a big "hoss laff" in the neigh- borhood adjacent to the high school building. Mont- gomery was telephoned to hasten at once to the home of Tom Moore where a wild woman had taken refuge after terrorizing the neigh- borhood. Bounding into the machine of Joe Richardson the officer gave hurried in- structions to be whizzed to the scene of hostilities. Ar- rived there he found what appeared to be an awful condition of affairs. The woman in question however was not wild nor was she crazy. She proved to be one of the best known ladies in the city, Mrs. Wil- bur Westlake, just out for an April Fool prank. She had affected a disguise that carried her through without detection until she appeared at the Moore home. She was not taken into custody. But more serious than the April Fool joke played by Mrs. Westlake is the threat of a well known cit- izen to have Montgomery arrested for violating the speed ordinance, claim- ing that he compelled Joe Richardson to drive his machine at a speed of fully forty miles an hour. The defense against the charge will be that Joe will give his machine to any one who can drive it faster than 10 miles an hour. — April 2, 1915 100 YEARS AGO...

The man reported he had been robbed and stabbed by someone who ran off into an orchard in the area. Police logs By Millie Seiber I personally know at least three ladies who live in nicely appointed homes with attractive and interest- ing landscaping. It is hard to imagine the time and pa- tience involved to achieve these results. For me, I can see where, in their homes, they have considered the size of the rooms relative to the size of the furniture and then planned the place- ment of the furniture after careful consideration of the color scheme. And after that come the accessories such as lamps, pictures, etc. The same sort of plan- ning is evident in their land- scaping. Careful thought is given to the size of the plant with regard to whether it will fit best in the front of the flower bed or further back. Whether the plant needs primarily sun or shade is another factor to take into consideration. The color also needs to blend with other parts of the scheme. That's what landscaping is all about. But what about the per- son who is not that orga- nized? Granted this person is reasonably clean and tidy with regard to her home. It's just that she is not in- tense about it. She is just likely to paint her home an attractive color, put some nice furniture in with some thought to color and place- ment and then basically ig- nore it for the next twenty years. She sometimes gets so involved in other pur- suits that the home is way down on the list of things she spends time thinking about. As to her landscaping, well that can be rather hel- ter-skelter. She can never leave a nursery without a plant in her hand and when she gets home there is the problem of where will she be able to squeeze it in? This produces quite a conglomeration of plant- ings. Not necessarily blend- ing in nicely with already es- tablished beds. Sometimes you end up with a little bit of a crowd in the shady spots if you get carried away with plants that don't like a lot of sun. Or sometimes the other way around. It would surely be nice if everyone could be orga- nized and have both their homes and their gardens ready to be photographed by Better Homes and Gar- dens, but let's be realistic. Sometimes I think we fret too much about the small stuff and forget that life is short and meant to be en- joyed.
