William r. GUIDE, chairman Of a COM
mittee recently appointed by the Society
OF American Florists and Ornamental
Horticulutrists, to engineer the move
ment to erect a memorial In Washington
to the late William Robertson Smith.
superintendent of the National Botanic
Garden, announced today that within
the next two weeks a nation-w wide cam
paign for subscriptions to the fund to
erect the memorial will be begun.
Subscriptions will not be confined to
florists and horticulturists alone, but
will be asked of the hundreds of friends
and admirers of Mr.. Smith.
''The size of the memorial will not be
decided until We can see how much
money we can get" said Mr.. GUIDE to-
day. However, he hopes that popular
subscriptions throughout the United
States will run up to at least 100000.
Since the fund has been started by
the society itself, I do not believe we
will have any trouble In getting the
money once we start after Il. Mr..
Smith was not admired and lovd by the
thousands of flo rists ana horticultur-
lists, but by hundreds of persons who
from time to time visited the Botanic

Glen Echo Park
Continues Popular

Last night was no exception to the
rule in regard to the attendance at Glen
Echo Park and the crowd that thronged
the grounds was a fair sample of the
heavy patronage that the park has re-
ceived for the last few weeks.
AS the season wanes the popularity
of the resort grows and so long as
weather conditions continue favorable
and visitors flock to the park no plans
for closing will be made. The big pavil-
ion is drawing more dancers nightly
and while no freak dancing is ever al
lowed the patrons always encore the
old favorites and the spotlight, moon,
and shadow numbers will be feature
so long as the season lasts.
With all Of the amusement devices
running and with the motion pictures
and other free attractions going last

them and 1t was nearly midnight before
the last OF them had left.
Next week marks the opening of the
annual confetti carnival and on Mon
