Snohomish, Washington

(Herald Net, August 20) Joni Kirk was planning to harvest the cucumber the next day. It was perfectly ripe and had grown huge under the summer sun.

The cucumber disappeared overnight.

Kirk was thrilled.

At the Garden of Hope outside Snohomish Church of the Nazarene, vegetables planted in boxes around the fence are meant to be taken. Kirk hopes the cucumber was plucked from the box by someone who needed it more than she did.

The Cameroon flag is a vertical tricolor of green, red and yellow, defaced with a five-pointed star in its center. The center stripe is thought to stand for unity: red is the colour of unity, and the star is referred to as "the star of unity." The yellow stands for the sun and also the savannas in the northern part of the country, while the green is for the forests in the southern part of Cameroon.
