Dear Editor: One thing I really like about spring and summer is looking at all the beautiful flower gardens around the towns and countryside. One thing I dislike is persons who don't enjoy looking at them and deciding to change the way some people have set them up. Why do they feel this is necessary? I am one of the people who try to make their yard something people like to stop and look at. I have put planters on my lawn every year in an effort to make my home look a little nicer. This year, one (or per- haps nine) additions to my lawn were nine cute little fellows of various poses. My niece, who I share a birthday with, gave me a garden gnome for my birthday thinking it would look cute amongst my flowers. He looked a little lonely, however, so over the course of a month or two he made eight friends. We discovered a couple of days ago that five are missing, including my birthday pal. One of the miss- ing was playing an accordion and another a fiddle, so perhaps they decided to become travelling musi- cians. We figure the other three may have become groupies and went along for moral support. We really hope that whoever provided them with their means of transportation will see fit to see them home after their tour is done. We really do miss them.
