entire session. Mr. Holman of Port
land, who was to have made an ad

G. Caufleld. The audience was de
lighted with a solo, 'Roses," by Miss
Edith Cheney, md piano solos by Mlsa
Martha Frances Draper and Mis Edna
Daulton. Saturday the wild flowers
claimed attention and were truly
beautiful, some of them to people
accustomed to a more rigorous climate
than that of Clackamas county, would
come under the head of cyltl.'nted
flowers.
No one with an appreciation of the
beautiful can afford to miss the treat,
that the display of floers and fruits
affords In Willamette hall. Even
those who every day remark on the
loveliness of the roses that have been
biooming In the yards, eld not realize
their true beauty mull the choicest

its own distinct class. At one side nf

The first day of the Clackamas
County Strawberry Fair and Rose
Show showed the great Interest that
the community Is taking in the subject
of raising choice flowers, and served
to bring together people who have
been noted for the beautiful flowers
adorning their homes, and those who
have worked heretofore unnoticed.
By some people it was said that you
would be able to count the number
of exhibitors on your fingers, but on
entering the room In which the show
is being held, one is surprised to see
the names of friends attached to the
clusters of well shaped and beauti
fully tinted flowers. It Is the hope of
the women in charge of the rose de
partment of the show that out of this,
their initial effort, will grow a society
for the lovers of roses that will be a
credit and a source of pride to the en
tire county. A society whose events
will become as Important to the resi
dents of Oregon City and Clackamas
county as Thanksgiving and the
Fourth of July. It will be the intention
of this society to so stimulate the
love of flowers in the hearts of the
residents of this city that the town
will present the appearance of s vast
rose, garden.
The roses- were Judged Friday after
noon by a committee consisting of
Mrs. L. M. Lamberton of Portland,
Mrs. Jane Bingham of Canemah and
James Wilkenson of Gladstone. The
following were the awards:
Howell & Jones, prize (cut glass
vase) for the best general collection
of not les8 than twelve varieties, Mrs.
the stage, forming an exquisite arch
way, is a curtain of fish netting with
red roses carelessly scattered through
it. Some have been pinned on the
reverse side of the curtain and show
a faintly veiled effect that Is artistic.
A basket of deep red roses is suspend
ed In the center of the drapery. The
effect of the stage Is especially pretty
at night, with the light shining
through.
The Clark seedling strawberry, that
secured a prize, are large, dark red
berries of a perfectly uniform size.
Next to these berries on the table are
the Improved New Oregon, and they
will soon be improved to be! equal to
the Clarks, having almost reached that
stage now.
