SOUTH SIDE GARDEN CLUB OF LONG ISLAND 
The South Side Garden Club of Long Island has entered 
the sixth year of its existence, and the past year has been its most 
successful one. 
Five lectures, two Flower Shows and one Vegetable Show 
have been held. At one of the Flower Shows the Bronze Medal 
offered by The G. C. of A. was competed for and won by one of 
the members for a wonderful exhibition of Dahlias. 
We have found out what sort of lectures are most useful 
to the members, which was discovered by an expression of opin- 
ion of the members. We know we do not feel we get as much 
benefit from an illustrated lecture as we do from those which 
demonstrate some sort of planting, and handling of bulbs, plants, 
etc. by the lecturer. 
This last kind create the greater enthusiasm. 
It seems impossible to get hold of the interest of the entire 
Club, but more members are dong their "Bit" this year than last, 
and perhaps in time each and every one will take on some respon- 
sibility, as it is only in this manner that the Club members will 
realize that we are able to achieve greater success. 
In closing I can truthfully say that those members who have 
given their help, have been untiring in their work which has 
been of the best. 
Florence B. B. Lentilhor, President.
