GOODBYE TO FLOWERS.
THE FLORAL AND ART ASsOCIA-
TION's EXHIBITION CLOSED.

hibits.
The floral and art exhibition closed last
night 1t has been a success in every way.
The main feature Of the exhibition-the
flower show-was never better. Notwith-
standing the inroads on the flower gardens
for Easter, and the numerous social enter
tainments and weddings during the week,
the exhibition has been one Of which Savan-
nah may be proud. There were more ex-
hibitors than were ever known before, and
never was there such a collection of rare
and beautiful plants.
The fancy work and art department Is, of
course an auxiliary department; still the
quality of the exhibits this year were much
more satisfactory than any previous show.
A larger number of children COM
peted for prizes this season than
ever before. Some large and handsome
lots of flowers were brought in too late TO
be entered for competition, and conse-
quently they were entered for exhibition
only. There is a rule which provides that
all plants, cut flowers and designs entered
for competition must be delivered at the
hall before 6 o'clock on the opening day.
In consequence Of a Noncompliance with
this rule, many who would doubtless have
received prizes got nothing but special
mention.
