relations; and in commemoration of this affiliation that Committee 
has put upon the shelves of the Museum's Library the nucleus of a 
collection of books on Gardens and Landscape Art, which, as time 
goes on, will develop into a library of great value to the Art Museum, 
to the people of Cleveland, and to the Garden Club.

The Garden Club of East Hampton, Long Island 
The Garden Club of East Hampton has just completed its second 
year and the increased interest in the Club is most gratifying. 
Ten well attended meetings were held, five conducted by our own 
members, and five by outside lecturers. At each of these meetings 
informal flower and vegetable competitions were held. 
A special meeting was given by the officers of the Club at which 
Miss Nichols gave an attractive lecture illustrated with lantern slides 
of old and new gardens. 
The Club was most fortunate in having the beautiful grounds of 
Mrs. Manson as a setting for its first Flower Show. In spite of a 
very unfavorable season, this was a great success: members were 
encouraged by what had been accomplished and experience will 
enable the Club to have an even better show next year. A small 
admission was charged, which included tea, and we were able to make 
a donation to the Village Improvement Society and to the Committee 
on Children's Gardens for seed and tools. 
This Committee was appointed, with Mrs. Hollister as Chairman, 
to interest the village children in gardens. Help will be given the 
children in starting the work. The Committee will visit the gardens 
at intervals during the season, and prizes will be awarded for both 
flowers and vegetables. 
The Club, in connection with the Village Improvement Society, 
has undertaken to interest and assist the railroad in the improvement 
of our unsightly station. As yet no definite arrangement has been 
made, but the railroad has promised to submit plans in the near 
future. - Elizabeth Lockwood.
