OREGON The World’s Best Climate ¡FTP1 1 „■ JUm Flower Show Was Heralded Event PORT ORFORD—In spite of drizzling weather last Saturday and Sunday afternoons the flow er show, put on by the Sunset Garden club here and Sixes-Eln Garden club, was a success. Many visitors from out of town at tended and many were the re marks of praise for the event. Judge of entries was Mrs. Hope Clevenger of Bandon. Fern Town- ley acted as clerk, recording the prize winners. Several entries were too late for judging but were left on display. The plant sale, presided over b” Mrs. Ivar Fristrom, sold out early, except for one or two containers. Over $10.00 was taken in at the silver tea. Much difficulty [ was experienced in tea making, due to highway work which cut off the water to the grade school both days. This also hindered the flower display somewhat as all water had to be carried from nearby homes. Approximately $25.00 will be added to the fund for shrubbery to landscape the grade school grounds as the result of the co-operation of members of the two garden clubs participating. This is the first attempt for these two organizations to st^ge * such an event, and according to members, it is hoped that will become an annual event.
