Limite ELON 715)

the flashiest eye-catchers in the show. Light 
violet base has deeper violet splashes and a heavy 
throat blotch of the same color, Everyone likes it. 
Typical blooming performance is 5/5/5.: Chief 
fault is crooking habit in heat, but this wins ap- 
proval with the ladies. ,

MAURICE BARRES—213— (Leffingwell ) 
Deep greenish yellow with a large scarlet throat 
mark, Very striking. Five open, 5 colored, and

it shouldn’t be in this one, but will let a few early 
birds in on it. Only one to a customer, tho.

MRS. CALVIN COOLIDGE—240— (Kunderd ’27) 
Old tho she may be, and in a tough class, to me 
Mrs. C. is,one..of the finest: still. Medium pink 
florets with large light yellow throats are the 
softest, cleanest, and most refreshing of any glad. 
A slight crinkling of the edges adds further grace 
and appeal. Only 3 to 4 open at a time, but spikes 
are ae straight and nicely proportioned.
