The Rose Show, held by the Wing­ ham Horticultural Society, attracted a large number of people on Wednes­ day afternoon and evening to the Council Chambers which were decor­ ated with evergreens, Japanese lan­ terns and in one corner a miniature garden with house, garage, pool, flower gardens and paths, In spite of the cry that the roses were past their best owing to the hot weather the previous' week, the qual­ ity and number of exhibits of bot}i roses and delphinium was excellent.^ Mr, Folster, of Owen Sound, “Dis­ trict Director of' Bruce, Huron and Grey, was the judge and was assist­ ed by Mr. E. S. Lewis. In the after­ noon he gave helpful suggestions for exhibitors followed by an address en­ titled “What's in a Name?” In' horticulture as in medicine, the speaker said, Latin and Greek names are used because the language being dead, will not change; thus though Snapdragon may be known by that name in English speaking countries, Antirrhinum is known the world over. He urged all flower lovers to call each plant by its right name and to study the meani.bg of the name. How much more familiar we are with a rose for instance if we refer to-it as Souvenir de Claudius Pernet than merely a nice pipk rose. Those present found that they had been mispronouncing quite a few names of common garden flowers af- Jer Mr. Folster had given a list of them.

HAD DELIGHTFUL NORTHERN TRIP Mr. Herb, and Miss Lillian Fuller, accompanied by their guests, the Misses Ivy and Winnifred Fuller, of London, Eng., had a most enjoyable motor trip to Northern Ontario over the week-end. Leaving home early Friday morn­ ing their first stopping point was Tobermory where they had a pleas­ ant boat trip on the Normae, landing at South Baymouth on Manitoulin Island, then proceeded across this very picturesque island to the Indian town of Little Current and taking the Government ferry at this point, ar­ rived back in a short time to the mainland and after motoring again for a few hours reached the small town of Nairn on the Spanish river, where they spent the night. Saturday morning they called at Copper Cliff and Sudbury where they had a short visit with one of our local boys, Scott Mitchell. Then travelling by Lake Nipissing, .Sturgeon, Falls and North Bay, they reached Callendar and on Sunday morning with approximately four thousand other visitors, saw the famous Quints at play, who were tot­ ally unconscious of all the throng of sight-seers and were evidently having a good time themselves, So after en­ joying all the sights in this locality they started homeward and at Mid­ land found a large number of tourists visiting the “Martyr’s Shrine” which they found very beautiful as well as interesting. The Misses Fuller were much impressed by our beautiful Can­ adian scenery and the splendid ac­ commodations afforded them through­ out the trip.
