president, was chosen to award the 

 sweepstake prizes of $5 and $3 for the 

 children 's school gardens. Our club 

 takes enthusiastic interest in the garden 

 work of our public schools, and $20 was 

 appropriated for the purchase of Hol- 

 land bulbs, to be distributed to the chil- 

 dren. Messrs. McKellar, Stephens, and 

 Faxon, as a committee on new quarters 

 for the club, have chosen rooms in the 

 Brent building. While there will be no 

 public show of chrysanthemums this fall, 

 our club will hola an informal display at 

 its rooms, at one of its November 

 meetings. An appropriation for prizes 

 was made and a committee consisting of 

 Messrs. Hills, "Williams, and Helfrick, 

 chosen to take charge of the matter. 

 October 16 the annual election of oflB- 

 cers will take place. 



Superintendent Underwood declares 

 himself powerless to prevent the vandal- 

 ism and plant stealing of Sunday fre- 

 quenters of the park. Last Sunday 

 whole beds of geraniums, begonias, co- 

 leus, and cannas, were demolished and 

 carried away. Even rose bushes were 

 not exempt. A few children started the 

 trouble by helping themselves; then one 

 by one the crowd took a hand, until 

 some 200 people were furiously tearing 

 up by the roots everything in sight.

The freeze of last week put all out- 

 door stuff out of business. As a conse- 

 quence, there is a great shortage of flow- 

 ers, everything in the shape of a bloom 

 being in demand. Mums coming in will 

 make up the deficiency in a few days, 

 and they are much needed, as funerals 

 and weddings demand a quantity of 

 flowers.
