‘Havdlton Flower Show
Attracted Many Visitors
| ~ From Distant Districts

NEW HAZELTON, B BG, AUGUST 23, 1925

ee

There « were ‘thrée ‘hundred and
‘Seventeen entries at the Horti-
cultural Society’s second flower

_ show in Hazelton last Frida
The flowers were equal to any

any part of the continent,
classes haye been developed

such an extent that they could go

to any show.
The attendance. at the sho
was equal to last year and fro

outside points it was better and
this is greatly appreciated by the
society: The visitors were a fine
lot of people who enjoyed the
flawers and the entertainment

the sociéty offered.

From a financial standpoint the
affair was just as suecessful as
it was asashuw. The members
of the society go into it for the

personal satisfaction they pet an

for the good it does the district,

Thus the expenses are kept to

minimum, The surplus is thus
proportionally large and the so-
ciety is enabled to carry on a big
work. This year’s money will go

improve the cemetery.
During the morning everyon
