MilfOrd Grange Affairs


The second annual Flower Show,
sponsored by Milford Grange was an
attractive affair, Notwithstanding the

stage which was handicapped by the
Easham Nurseries Of FTankford was
a beautiful setting for the style
show which was staged on Friday
evening by Max Cohen, using the
young ladies Of the Grange as his
models. Miss Wilma Wilkins at the
plano furnished the inspiring music
for the models to march to. Another
much enjoyed feature Of the even
