Magnificent Success

butterflies of spring were among the
guests at the Pattie A. Clay Infrmary
bazaar. They came in by way Of the
open windows and were seen in both
the flower market and bouquets on the
lunch tables. The whistles the child
rem blew to attract attention to bou-
tonniers which they wished to sell at
10 cents a bunch, were sent to them
by Potter & Co., of Cincinnati.
No one found the price too high.
The Richmond Greenhouses, Honaker,
of Lexington, and Jacob Schultz, of
Louisville, gave gorgeous flowers to
the flower market. Pink and white
roses sold in punches, while a single
bud was also in demand. Corsage
bouquets Of sweet peas were spoken
for before taken from their boxes.
Carnations and snap dragons were
most popular. Roots and bulbs were
bought for the different gardens of
Madison county.

tables of the luncheon, given to the
Jewish War Relief committee, were
given over to the flower girls who sold
them to anxious buyers. The flowers

from Louisville and one frmo Win
chester arrived in time to get 1un-
cheon.

than the delicious sweetmeats made
by the women and girls at home.
Those who waited until afternoon to
buy were disappointed that all the
candies were sold.

will offer premiums for the food table

long enough to be seen by those who
came to buy but sadly turn away on
account of not being able to secure
the deliciously cooked food at any
price?
