FORTHCOMING LILY FESTIVAL
This area is looking forward with considerable anticipation to
the forthcoming Lily Blossom Time, the fourth for this area in
its attempt to advertise the Easter Lilies. Certainly it is no idle
statement to say that a wide section of the counry is also look
ing forward o this event because previous affairs have been at
tractively pleasing to those who were present.
The success of the who affair hinges on the area’s co-operation
in providing floats to add length and color to the parade. An ap-
peal has Iwen mailed to all people of the area who may wish
to put their ingenuity to work on some kind of float.
This is a community project. Benefits from it, although definitely
intangible, are certainly for the community as a whole and the
growers in particular. Businesses of the area are entering floats,
these firms expect to put time, effort and money out for this
affair. Certainly, the growers could do great service by furnishing
the lilies needed to beautify the parade.
Contact Achie Hendricks, at Hendricks Furniture Co., and
apprise him of what you plan to do in way of help. He is float
chairman, and wishes to know in advance in order to arrange
the parade according to classifications.
