The garden clubs recently con-
cluded a successful pilgrimage
Seventy four yards were visited in
West and North Jackson, about
sixty ladies made the tour in cars
and bus. The ladies were impress
sed at the number Of beautiful
yards in these sections of the
City. There were many blooming
flowers and nicely arranged schru-
berries. There were beautiful trees
and lovely carpets Of we'll attended
; lawn grasses.
The garden club members feel
rewarded in their garden club
efforts. They feel rewarded to see
many people interested in plant
ing flowers. They saw many more
pretty back yards than have been
heretofore. The planting Of flow
ers seem to be spreading to peo-
pie who are not members of gar
den clubs, and that is what gar
den clubs hope to see.
By making this pilgrimage the
club members saw not only the
pretty yards of fellow members,
but saw the need Of trying to in
terest more people in becoming
lovers of the beauty that can be
displayed in yards. The ladies saw
some good results of the recent
cleanup campaign.
The flower lovers predict that
more people will become interest
ed in planting flowers, and more
people will do something about
the unattractive yards and vacant
lots in our section of the city.
