SPLENDID SETTING TOR SHOW 



The maonificent building at Indian- 

 apolis, wliiidi is destined to hold the 

 great ^ dav national tlower show of 

 the S. A. F., Miirch 2.") to Ajiril 1, was 

 dpeiKMl recently for a great automobile 

 exliibitidu, and the florists from near 

 and far had a tine opjiortunity to judge 

 what a splendid showing they would be 

 .ilile to make under the well-lighted, 

 rdomy .and airy surroundings which this 

 exhibition ]ial;ico furnishes. 



Secret ;iry John Young, who has been 

 in lndiaiia]iolis fer some time, as one 

 (if the directing heads, also one of the 

 a.dive workers for the coming flower 

 shew, writes enthusiastically about how 

 the building looks when it is lighted. 

 as it was for the automobile show, and 

 states that everyone is much encour 

 aged in regard to th(> ]ircscnt outlook. 

 This is gratifying to the rest of us here 

 111 the east, and does tiiuch to encour 

 .•i^;e lis in m.aking our best efforts to do 

 dnr individual jiarts. Xdt onlv ^\r. 

 Vdiing. but many others who are on or 

 ne.ar the spot, .and know the situation 

 Irdin first hand, also report with en- 

 thnsiasiii as to the prospects. 



Kverything all along the line seems to 

 be odine smoothly and s.atisfactoril v.
