BEAUTIFUL DISPLAY OF ROSES.
Marks the Flower Show at the Church
Street School Building.


Quantities of roses of varied hue, to.
gether with many other beautiful flow
ers, made the second flower show under
the auspices of the Barre Woman's club
a most attractive spot 10 visit yester-
day, the opening day, at the Church
street school building Although it was
primarily a rose show, other exhibits
were desired and the call was well re.
sponded TO-
A large number of people took advan-
tage of the opportunity to see the many
blooms displayed during the afternoon
and many more, il is expected, will visit
the building this afternoon from 2 TO 8
for the same purpose
In the vicinity of 90 different kinds OF
roses we're displayed, all of them very
beautiful. Conspicuous among the dis
play of flowers other than roses were
vases of Canterbury bells, which were
greatly admired, both the single and So
called "cup-and saucer varities being dis
played. Hundreds of velvety pansies were
contributed by Miss Emma Charbon
neau of Williamstown, the result of only
two days blooming and it was from
mems of showy lady's slipper came, con-
tributed by Mrs. Sarah Seaver. Thers
was small exhibit of nasturtiums and
sweet peas but the season is too back
ward for many of these yet Sweet will
hams which figured to some extent at
the peony show last month. again had
a place among the flowers at this time.
There were also exhibits OF foxgloves.
lsrkspur, forget me nots, poppies, pinks,
and many others too numerous to men
tion, making the school room place OF
beauty.
In an affair of this sort il is at once !
evident that considerable work is neces
sary for it's carrying out, but under the
efficient leadership OF Mss-ak..J. Morrison
and DR.. ID. c. Jarvis, the flower shows |
are much appreciated and anticipated 1t |
is source of much qualification that
the people of Williamstown have shown
their interest and united with those OF
this city in sending contributions, the
Misses Robinson, Mrs. Sarah Seaver and
Miss Emma Charbonneau all sending
beautiful exhibits. Other out of town ex
hibits were two specimens OF roses, grown
BY George Chase of Bethel. The rest
we're by local flower growers.
One change was made in the system of
naming the prize winners at this event,
10 prize being awarded where there was
,nly one exhibit of kind and no COM
PETITION. As at the peony show, William
1reig and James Levie acted as Judges.
The next exhibit for which the wom
ms club is planning is of sweet peas and
,ladioli, sometime in August. II
