Exe- ter, we requested permission to pub- lish it Mr: Beavers felt that the let - if the person had signed his or her name. Exeter, Sept. 22, 1921. Reeve Beavers, Exeter Dear Sir: Having read in the London Free Press some time ago an article on "the peony" where it was spoken of as London's "civic" flower and hav- ing heard that St. Catharines is cal- " led the "rose city," the question has often been in my mind since -"why could not Exeterites select a suitable flower and call it our `civic' flower." It would be a simple inexpensive matter, but it cannot he agitated with success without the help of our Reave and fellow councillors, at least, so I would think. I believe it would he pleasant and advisable and beneficial for several reasons: i. It would be a symbol of unity, shouldallflower-lovers cultivate the sante flower. 2. It would probably encourage those who heretofore did not bother w:th flowers to start and care for at. le: et this particular one. 3. It would probably help our an- nual fall fair, should the fair hoard` sea fit to offer prizes for the best collection of our civic flower. 4. It would be, a splendid topic for a composition for any grade in our school. 5. Probably we could get some persons interested enough to have one bed of our civic flower in each of our parks. There may be many other reasons for our choosing to have a civic fewer, but I shall' not trouble to think up more now. IIow could we decide on a flower? Probably you would plan a method. As a suggestion let me mention the Zinnia, because - 1. It is hardy. 2. It is not't. i t ned by wind or rain. It can hold its own better than any y flower I know. 3. It is easy to cultivate. 4. Unlike some flowers it is not ex ensive t , p o get,started, Every citi- zen could afford a package of seed. ' '5, It is very pretty from its be- ginning till the snow flies in the fall. Probably this is "'nottghsaid" for now so I will close, hoping these thoughts will be given your worthy w,pprovaland subsequent considers- ti"rone and that action will follow. These thoughts have been communi- .s„ated -tor no, otherersore•so p far. • '-Ai{ interested Citcze n; The of a wind storm that s•vcpt the Niagara ' district passed. over this section on Friday last.
