ided over the well-attended meeting.
After the roll call by the secretary,
Mrs. George Patterson, the chair

their reports. Mrs. P. II. Williams
had an interesting account of the
Christmas PoinSettias that were sent
the shut-ins during the holidays.
Mrs. Patterson read the many notes
of appreciation from those whose
Gays We're frightened by the plants.
One OF the most interesting and
most instructive programs of the
year was presented by Mrs. G. H.
Marlborough, program chairman.
Mrs. w. d. Wilson read paper on:
Design, the Basic Quality of Floral
Art" She illustrated her paper by
showing the various flower holders
that may be used in arranging diff
erent type flowers and named the
three basic containers that everyone
needs. Mrs. j. F. Williams then read
a paper prepared by Mrs. w. P.
Lewis: Flower Arrangement in the
Home" This paper contained many
valuable pointers for those who are
anxious to have their blossoms
shown to the best advantage.
The feature flower arrangements
were unusually beautiful for this
season of the year Mrs E. H. Shad-
dock had three arrangements that
carried out the ideas given in the
program for the afternoon: one of
Siberian Iris; another fan-shaped
arrangement of white hyacinths and
narcissus, using the foliage of the
bulbs in carrying out the shape; and
the third, Star Magnolia blossoms
in a blue glass container. Mrs. w. P.
Lewis large blue pottery vase was
perfectly suited to the bright flow
ering ounce and winter honey
suckle. Two lovely arrangements OF
Camellias came from flower gardens
on Spring Street. Mrs. Leroy Paris
had Pink Perfection floating in
shallow white pottery bowl lineo
in blue. In clear fluted Camellla
bowl were five different varieties
in shades of red and red and white
