The June meeting of the Key
West Garden Club was held on
Monday evening at the Public
Library on Duval street. This
meeting was the final one of the
season, pending continuance in
October.
Mrs. ]. D. MacMullen, presi-
dent of the club, opened the
meeting at 8 o'clock. Due to the
absence of Mrs. Philip Cosgrove,
recording secretary, minutes of
the previous meeting were not
read. Mrs. w. j. Phelan, treas
urer, read the financial report,
and Mrs. William White, cor
responding secretary, reported
that she had written several let
tiers pertaining to club affairs.
Mrs. MacMullen announced that
plans were being formulated for
a project concerning the Key
West Botanical Gardens.
She then asked for suggestions
from members regarding next
years meeting, what subjects the
club would like to study, etc.
Mrs. Wallace Bryant Kirke
spoke of report made by Mr..
Gill, who addressed the Garden
Club last month on the subject of
fertilizing local soil. Members
who have followed his sugges-
tons have had splendid results.
Mr.. GilPs report should prove
very valuable and helpful, and
mimeographed copies are to be
made which will be available to
all club members.
Mrs. E. J. Bayly announced
that Mrs. B. Curry Moreno had
arranged the flowers on display
at the meeting, which consisted
of the Frangipanni, the Horse
radish tree blossoms and the
Alamanda. Mrs. Harvey Eagan,
Mrs. William White and Mr..
Leuthi read papers regarding
these flowers, and there followed
an informal discussion about
them.
Mrs. Bayly spoke of the need
for Bird Conservation in Key
West. 1t had been suggested
that the public school children
make bird houses, and it appears
that a local Audubon Society will
be formed in the near future.
Two distinguished guests were
present at the meeting. DR.. K.

Garden Club Held Final
Meeting OF Season Monday
by Nina Leslie calleja)

Dahlberg, superintendent of the
famous Fairchild Gardens in Mi
ami, and William Lyman Phil
lips, landscape architect, who
has done such notable work in
Grinnells Park and Matson HAM
mock. Mr.. Phillips spoke very
briefly of plans for a beautiful
flower and tree lined highway
extending over the Keys.
The subject of DR.. Dahlberg's
very interesting and instructive
address was Landscape Gar
dening." He mentioned several
famous European gardens that
have been models of beauty and
perfection for hundreds of years.
He pointed out that the theme"
of any garden is important, and
that unity, proportion and both
physical and psychological
balance, as applied to gardening,
must be considered. Simplicity
is necessary, as is sincerity.
Sequence should be strived for,
likewise harmony, and vista. DIR.
Dahlberg pointed out some of
the most common faults in gar
dens: lack of plan, helter-skelter
planting, too great a variety of
plants.
At the close of his address DIR.
Dahlberg answered many ques-
tions put to him by his audi
ence. During this period he men,
toned that Key West was the
only spot in the entire United
States where breadfruit trees
would grow, and suggested that
we show many of them grow
ing here.
1t was a great privilege to hear
DR.. Dahlberg at Mondays meet
ing, and the entire club looks for
ward to having him with us again
next season.
Present at the meeting were:
Mrs. E. M. Decker, Mrs. w. J..
Lee, of Miami, Miss Minnie Por-
ter Harris, Mr.. and Mrs. B. Curry
Moreno, Mr.. and Mrs. Wallace
Bryant Kirke, Mr.. and Mrs. A.
