CHURCH FULL OF P0SIES
INTERLACHEN FLOWER SHOW
WAS A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT AND
SUCCESSFUL IN EVERY WAY.

Despite the damage wrought by the
heavy rains of Thursday, the first ex-
hibition of the Interlachen Flower Show
association was a pronounced success.
The Linden Hills Congregational church
was transformed into veritable fairy
Sweet peas, pansies, nasturtiums, as
tiers, dahlias and goldenglow. The ex-
hibition was strictly local affair, only
residents of Cottage City and Linden
Hills being allowed to enter, and was
designed to encourage outdoor flower
growing.
The attendance was large and every
thing in connection with the show was
so successful that a permanent organi-
zation with a regular annual show is
the probable outcome.
The committee in charge of the gen
eral arrangements included Mines. Mil

tor Baxter: A. LELAND and A. L. Hush;
