By means of posters it, was shown that the home without flowers is not near- ly as attractive as the home with flowers. Catherine said "the first step in Planning a Bower bed is to choose the site with the best locations on a west or south exposure to ensure plenty of sun." The next step she em- phasized was to prepare the soil using a good layer af manure in the fall and cultivating well in the spring. Selecting the flowers was the next point that Catherine sug- gested remembering to place the tall -varieties at the back, to have a few good varieties rather than a poor showing of several kinds; to use colors of flowers that com- plement each other and to select flowers for continuous bloom. "Care in transplanting the young plants, which have been. started in the home Or bought, is an- other factor to be stressed" said Catherine "then with watering and weeding the flower garden should be a course of pride all summer." Miss Ruth Skinner and Mrs. Norman Jaques are 'leaders of the Elimville club which demon- strated "Ways to Improve Home Surroundings" commented upon by Ruth Miller assisted by Doris Cornish. "H o m e beautification should he a family project" said Ruth "and the first step is to clean up the grounds, for the Most expensive shrubsand trees will have no effect if the yard is untidy." "Planting trees and shrubs needs xareful planning and thought for the years to come," Ruth pointed out "hut the basic step is the lawn — a well -kept lawn indicates interest in the home," "Well -kept grounds give an air of refinement to the home and a favorable, impression to all visitors and can he at- tained by :family to-operatiOn which all can share with pride," concluded the speaker, All members of the Grand Bend club of which Mrs, Don Hendrick and Mrs. Nola Taylor are leaders participated in ar ranging bouquets of flowers from their club gardens for the dining table,. the coffee table and tri- angular arrangements.
