“MARJORIE MILLS’? CHRISTENING 
A notable feature of our Victory Harvest show was the naming of a 
new Bristol Chrysanthemum. 
Marjorie Mills, New England’s favorite home economics commentator, 
is shown above, graciously accepting a basket of the new mum which 
we were privileged to name in her honor.

FOR GENERAL

ariest. Jane CRUSOE 
Last Fall, when the famous mums of Bristol were at their 
peak, two gala days (October 10th and 11th) were given 
over to a Victory Festival for the benefit of Army and 
Navy Relief. 
We are proud to report that this Victory Festival—for so 
worthy a cause—was widely attended, and we were able to 
turn over a most substantial sum to the Army and Navy 
Relief funds. 
The splendid indoor flower, vegetable, fruit, and food 
exhibit was staged by the Women’s Club of Bristol, and 
sponsored by the Connecticut Federation of Garden Clubs. 
This fine show, and the interest displayed by the hundreds 
of people attending it will help in many ways to make next 
season’s gardens more beautiful, and bountiful. 
Harvest proved to be. . 
OCTOBER 
1942 
We wish to give our sincere thanks to the many Horti- 
cultural notables who unstintingly donated their time, and 
services to help insure the success our Bristol Victory 
. and whose efforts helped swell 
the fund we were privileged to contribute to a worthy cause.
