What it is and what it has done -
The Society was organized as at
present, twenty-one years ago. There.
are three of the originals who were
parties to said organization still°
active and .your hurnble servant is one
of the three.
The object of the Society was to
advance the interest of flowers, fruit
and vegetables. The Society, now at
the full age of twenty-one, has over
320 societies with some seventy .thous
and' members. There are eleven dis-
tricts,of which is No. 5,omris-
P
ing ane uron, Bruce and Grey, with
31 Societies and over. 3,000 members.
During 1927 over 88,000 was col-
lected and expended in our District
done, the influence of 'Which is hard
to estimate. Many horses have been
trade more beautiful and attractive,
and the spirit of 'love for our home
has been apparent in many sections
of our District and the Province at
large.
The membership fee of only one
dollar is used for the purchase of
plants, seeds and shrubs, and given to
our members with the addition of a
portion of the Government grant. Our
own Society has not peen quite up to
the mark for some time, However, a
real revival is hoped for this year and
when our canvassers come we trust
the people of our town and community
will give theist hearty: support, so that
our town may be made as beautiful
as any in the district.
Yours sincerely,
Wm. Har.try.

Presentation. - On Tuesday night,
Feb. 7th, a Targe number of friends
and neighbors gathered at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. James Hogg, 4th
concession, to bid them farewell'
before their departure to Buffalo in
the near future. During •the evening,
which was pleasantly spent in a social
way, a well -'filled purse, was presented
to Mr. and Mrs Hogg, and the 'fol-
lowing address,' expressive of the sen
timent of the gathering was read by
Mr. Edward Ferguson:
To Mr. and Mrs. James Hogg. Dear
Friends, -It was with feelings of sin-
cere regret that we heard of your in-
tended removal from our midst. For
many years we have lived together as
neighbours in the enjoyment of those
benefits and privileges which good
fellowship affords. These sacred ties
inspired by companionship in the joys
and sorrows of life, are not easily sev-
ered. Yon have had your joys and
sorrows alike, living among us and
we have had ours. 'Whatever we may
have been to you is not for us to say.
Of What you have been to us, we may
speak more freely. You have rejoiced
with us in our prosperity, you have
wept with us in our adversity. When
in the sunshine, you have shared the
light and warmth. When the clouds
hung heavily and the days were dark,
you were present with us to afford help
and comfort. Such ministry lives on
through the years and will not soon he
forgotten. We wish to Express our
admiration to Mrs.. 'Hogg for the en-
ergy devotion shown in n the schoolcol
room. Although the work was ardu-
ous, requiring tact, patience and la-
bour, yet you made the schools days
happy and profitable, We hope you
may find In your new home in Buffalo
that peace spoken 'by the 'Psalmist:
"Peace be within thy walls, And pros-
perity within thy palaces." "Be it
a weakness it deserves some praise,
We love the playplace of our early
days." 'Before bidding goodbye to
cur guests to -night, we wish to present
both of them this ptil•se of money as
a memento of their sojourn among us.
Although the outward tie by which
we have been hitherto bound, has been
broken,' we desire that on leaving us
•o mayh
ufeel that oursympathies o

all 'bin in 'the hope and
prayer that the earnest blessings of
God . may ever follow you, and that
you may always find His grace suf-
ficient for you, and that many years of
comfort and service may be granted to
you. Signed en behalf of your neigh-
bours and friends.
