'Good musical num- bers, too, e U tB there to enjoy the. lantern slides, ' On Thursday evening, the 151h, Mr, Hartry carte over front .Seaforth for a formal organizatioti of- the Brocefteld branch 'which had been temporarily, organized in September of last year, so that now it has 105• members to its credit, not a;;bad start for an infant society! The' same of- ficers were re-elected to carry on the work, excej t ifar`'the interchanging bf President and .Vice, which makes MS's, Addison President now. Messrs. Ross Scott and Will McIntosh were appointed auditors. There was .a' good crowd out, and the -' interest itt Mr. Hartry's instructive: talk was' very evident. He . spoke briefly on the 19211 'Horticultural convention in Toronto, ,but more particularly on "How to :conduct 'a Flower Show," the'paper which 'he gave there. Mem- bers were urged to buy seeds -and' stock which can be used to advan ttage at the (Fall Flower Show and 'to create an interest in non -members -by' putting occasional vases of cut flow- ers in the, stores during the summer. The subjeot of decorating tike Church Sunday by ;Sunday; was brought in here and great stress •was:laid on the fact ,that quality, not quantity; h the vital point; no overcrowding, and no clashing of colors. All must be in herrn`ony,' Every ..member should show something for the seasons work and for the love of the cause and the intelligent way to look et it is never "Can '1win " but "Can I show?" Careful selection will reveal beautirul specimens in even thea poor- est of gardens and more ofeeh than not these have carried •off blue -/rib- bons. With intelligent care and cul- tivation, there is no limit to what each member can produce in the way of beauty. •Mr. lHartry kindly ans- wered sone; questions and gave cul- tural directions on the 'care of roses, shrubs, :peonies , tuberous begonias, gloxinias and gladioli and also told how to care_ for the stock on its.ar- rival from the growers. A few words were said on the arranging of a per- ennial border, the biggest joy its a gardenerds eyes, a source of:everlast- ing . pleasure when once started bn its way, Mr. Crawford, the energetic secretary ,for 'Sea'forth branch, was over and spoke a little on the ardu- ous 'work of a secretary but particu- larly on the importance of interesting the -young of every community in Horticulture, in his eyes the Fall School Fair being of far more value than that of the older and more ex- perienced in the Horticultural. Soc- iety Little Anna 'Aikenhead recited very appropriately, "Over in ,the Meadow," and then the messing was closed by a reading front the Alirll Missionary Messenger on the c9 - operation of Horticultural Societies with thechurch hs beautifying the grounds around church btliidings,'the re -placing and planting of trees, shruj,s, etc,, given by Mr. Armour, who also made his offer of a .good bird book for the most original col- lection of bird houses at the Septemb- ber Flower show, "And the Lord Gad planted a garden eastward in. Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed." ,Miss Greta Mustard is visiting her friends here. Mr, and Mts.
