COURTESYPHOTOS Top, liriope combined with the bold rounded blue-green leaves of ligularia. Bottom, brunnera paired with small round leafed fibrous begonia. The "Bath House Boost- ers" have won the right to be called the speediest bunch in town. Two days ago they started a petition to raise money enough to erect two bath houses on the river at the foot of Pine street, to put in a plank run- way to the water from the houses, and to erect poles for swinging rings, and do other things necessary for a first class bathing re- sort. By tomorrow evening the whole scheme will be in operation, the build- ings erected and the re- sort ready. Ninety dollars was raised by subscription and this afternoon carpen- ters will begin work on the buildings, all work to be do- nated. If there are any other parties who desire to make donations they can do so by calling on Nick Gernon. Two dressing rooms will be erected, one to be 12x24 feet and the other 10x12 feet. One of the rooms will be reserved for ladies and the other for men and boys. —July16,1915 100YEARSAGO... 'BathHouseBoosters'win By Cathy Wilson Every day in the cool of the morning and with a cup of coffee in hand, I wander down pathways checking my gardens. I especially love to stroll along one shade border admiring various combi- nations of different leafed perennials most of which are evergreen. This shade garden is in front of my house so I wanted to cre- ate a year round vista for my guests. I love mixing different shaped leaved plants for contrast and for interest. An example of this can be seen in the first picture — a duo of strappy narrow white leaves of the liriope combined with the bold rounded blue-green leaves of ligularia. The second photo shows the white and dark green heart shaped leaves of brunnera paired with small round leafed fibrous begonia. Note that the white flowers of the bego- nia also highlight the leaf textures of both plants. Lastly the third picture displays variegated oval leaves of euonymus con- trasting nicely with a five fingered fern. So next time you are shopping for new plants, think out of the box. Try looking for different leafed plants. Choose bold, or strappy, or spikes, or fine or fuzzy leaves. There are so many different shapes and, remember when it comes to leaves, the long and the short of it can cre- ate the best combo yet.

RED BLUFF GARDEN CLUB Le av es , th e lo ng a nd t he s ho rt of i t Euonymus contrasting nicely with a five fingered fern. Marine Corps League, Detachment 1140 held its annual picnic at Cone Grove Park on Sunday, July 12. Forty visitors joined the Marines, including veter- ans from the other mili- tary services and veterans service organizations. The National Colors and each of the service branch col- ors, including the POW/ MIA flag, were displayed. Food and recreational games were provided by Detachment 1140. Veterans as young as early- to mid-30s to those in their 80s visited and shared some stories, which everyone enjoyed. Veterans from WW II, Korea, Viet- nam, Desert Storm and the Global War on Terrorism and their families did a lot of sharing. A theme of "fun is man- datory" was central to the picnic. Everyone enjoyed the day with great weather cooperating. MARINE CORPS LEAGUE Detachment 1140 holds veterans picnic Moneyhasbeensubscribedandtwobuildingswillbeerectedtoday Graffiti around Red Bluff has been a major issue in the past and still exists, just not in abundance. This town has been able to clean up most of it, but a group of high school students wants to clean up even more graf- fiti in town. These teenagers were all recently sponsored to at- tend Camp Royal, a leader- ship camp put on by Cali- fornia Rotary Clubs. The Red Bluff group consists of four campers: Ceighlee Fen- nel, Anthony Aviles, Tanner Prest and Cheyanne John- son. They came back with the plan to improve Red Bluff's image and unity, so to follow through on that, they are going to clean up graffiti. The students' goal is to cover up at least five spots and to paint positive mes- sages in an effort to spread good feelings and to teach people some of the messages they learned at camp. The project will take place on Saturday and other camp- ers are coming to help out the Red Bluff group so they won't be short of hands. If anyone has graffiti they want cleaned or knows of any spots, call the graf- fiti hotline at 727-8298 and leave your name and phone numbers. A Camp Royal participant will return your call. The students are open to painting positive messages on buildings, so if a private building wants a message put up it should call the same number. The group has eight hours to complete its project and, by the end, Red Bluff should have neg- ative images replaced with positive images to brighten up town.
