Andrew Christensen was the first 

 speaker of the evening and entertained 

 the members in his inimitable way for 

 about forty minutes as he graphically 

 described his recent tour through the 

 war zone of northern France, including 

 the Ghemin des Dames, Soissons, 

 Eheims, Belleau Woods, Chateau Thier- 

 ry, Meaux and other places hallowed for 

 all time in history. He spoke feelingly 

 of the magnificent avenues of trees, 

 once so majestic, now standing torn and 

 stark after their terrific shelling. In 

 some of the large dugouts he found fine 

 crops of mushrooms growing. In the 

 cultivated fields, wheat, sugar beets, 

 mangels and alfalfa were producing 

 splendid crops. In the heart of the 

 war zone he found one most interesting 

 small florist's place walled in with 

 trained fruit trees, in which heliotropes, 

 fuchsias, veronicas and other plants 

 showed loving care. 



The various cemeteries were carefully 

 inspected and all showed excellent care. 

 Paris itself seemed the same as when 

 he visited it ten years earlier, and had 

 ho not visited the war zone and seen 

 the awful destruction wreaked by the 

 Germans, it would have been hard to 

 believe that such a terrible war had 

 been fought. 



Captain George C. Moyse, of the New 

 England branch of the National Flower 

 Growers' Association, spoke on the new 

 association and the work it aimed to 

 accomplish. He found his work as or- 

 ganizing secretary interesting. He had 

 been surprised to find how growers who 

 were in the same towns were opposed 

 to each other and how much cooperation 

 was needed. There was far too much 

 price-euttinfj on all hands. When any- 

 one grew the best every effort should 

 be made to soil it to the best possible 

 advantage. The new association wanted 

 to create a greater demand by putting 

 the growers before the public through 

 a publicity campaign. National coop- 

 erative purchasing was a necessity as 

 well as selling. 



Captain Moyse, who is a fluent and 

 interesting speaker, spoke on some of 

 his war experiences. He was the first 

 national guard ofiicer of the 105th In- 

 fantry to set foot on French soil. Only 

 seven out of 250 of his men went 

 through the war without being killed
