Almost all annual flowers planted for the summer will die when the tem­ perature drops down to 32 de­ grees. This usually happens sometime during October. I will miss the beautiful dis­ plays of flowers planted around the city. I know that one morning in the near future I .,,_ will go by the entrance to the lake park and that wonderful display of Impatiens will be dead. I will also miss the beautiful dark red leaves of the Coleus planted at the entrance of Boxwood Village and near the municipal building. I have also enjoyed the yellowish Lan­ tana planted in spots around the city. To my mind the first frost is the end of the main growing season of the year. There is much that still can be done in the garden, but I will miss the flowers . Nature is putting on a dif­ ferent kind of display right now with the turning of the leaves. It is particularly beau­ tiful now as some of the trees with the most beautiful autumn colors have been turning color recently. There are many fine specimens around the city of black gum (intense red or or­ ange), hickory (solid yellO\\ . red maple (shades of yellow, orange and red), and sweet gum (yellow, reddish, and purple).

RE-ELECT GOVERNOR PARRIS N. GLENDENING AND LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR KATHLEEN KENNEDY TOWNSEND

WE MUST VOTE WE MUST VOTE - NOV. 3RD NOV. 3RD

Why We Support Governor Glendening For Reelection

While Glendening was County Executive of Prince George's County, he helped Greenbelt by: • Transferring 72 acres of School Board property to G---reenbelt to be used as green space; • Giving Greenbelt over $1 million dollars in grant funds to permit the City to acquire over 100 acres of additional green space; and • Supporting County legislation, which reduced the county tax rate for Greenbelters so that Greenbelt residents would not pay County taxes for services provided by the City.

As Governor, his administration has achieved significant improvements in the following areas: • EDUCATION More has been invested in school construction than ever before in Maryland history. To reduce class size, funding was provided to build, renovate, repair or modernize 6,000 classrooms. Prince George's County will receive a $300 million education aid package over the next four years. • CRIME Maryland's streets are safer, violent crime has dropped 13°/c, since 1995, and the number of police in - neighborhoods across the state is up. • ENVIRONMENT Action has been taken to protect our water, the air we breathe, the Chesapeake Bay, and our open spaces. • ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Maryland's economy has improved dramatically over the last three years. Employment is at an all time high, business starts and incomes are up, and taxes are being cut 10%, the first --- cut in 30 years.
