members of the staff. As occasion arose, small exhibits were 
made of seed catalogs, books, illustrations, etc. Members of the 
American Fern Society spent one Saturday morning visiting and 
inspecting the library, and were interested to learn of the disposal 
of the fern books belonging to their association. For the lecture 
on Japanese Flower Arrangement, one of a course given under the 
auspices of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden Woman's Auxiliary, a 
selection of books and prints was placed in the auditorium.

material on the origin, culture, and varieties of this flower.
