Letter To Editor

Madam Editor;

Would you believe that

flowers read the Rappahannock

News?

I went out today and found

that my peonies had grown 10

inches in the last week. The

only way I could account for

this rapid growth was that

your paper with the article

about the Flower Show featuring

peonies on May 21st had

blown over one of the plants

and they were trying to get

ready on time.
