Flower Show.
Don't forget the flower display
sponsored by the Askov Garden club
at the town hall Saturday night, June
20. The committee in charge wishes
to announce that due to unfavorable
weather conditions it is possible that
many of the iris are not so good so
do not hesitate to bring in what you
have. Further, that on account of
this, it is desirable to bring other
flowers which bloom at this time Of
the year; it is principally an iris dis
play, but it will add to the beauty of
the display by having a number OF
other seasonal flowers. Remember it
is not a competitive display, merely
just to see what can be produced
here, so bring in what you have, says
the committee.
Exhibits will be received at the
town hall from s o'clock in the morn
ing until o'clock noon. In connec-
ton with the display the committee
in charge will sell strawberry short
cake and coffee and also ice cream
both during the afternoon and eve
ming; they are preparing for big
business so don't forget them; the
proceeds from this sale will go toward
defraying expenses connected with
the annual flower show which they
will sponsor later in the season.
