Bureau of Public Roads after being closed by snowslides during the past several months. J. Ganauck and A. B.

The two men were taking pictures of the glacier, Auk Lake and other points of interest in and about this city before proceeding to the Westward Miss Marie Goldstein, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Goldstein, returned to Juneau on the steamer Queen after spending the winter in California ’ ‘The Moose and Elks' baseball teams were lined up and the first practice game of the Juneau City Baseball League was held this day at the city park. One of the classiest and prettiest cars to reach this city this season was that for M. D. Berry, Juneau's well known auto driver and for-hire car man. The car was a Cadillac, seven-passenger touring, the very latest with eight cylinders. 1. G.

Forward, the club voted |to stage again this year the Juneau Flower show as a part of a larger levent which will stress the display {of Victory Garden Vegetables. | Flower divisions will remain sub- stantially the same as those estab- lished last year and will consist of both cultural and artistic sections. “Divisions for vegetables are be- ing worked out and all growers in the Gastineau Channel area, whether previously experienced or not, should régard it as their pa- triotic duty to participate in the show,” Mrs. Wellman Holbrook, president, said. “Many people were deterred from making entries last year because they felt their plants were not true show stock, but locally there are few who have had experience at growing solely for exhibition pur- poses,” she explained “so that the beginner has almost as much chance of receiving awards as the more experienced grower.” Best time to hold the combined vegetable and flower show is the latter part of August, it was ad- vised, 5o that growers are urged to bear that time in mind and watch both garden stuffs -and flowers for promising maturing plants. , Choosing - the Best “In choosing either vegetables or flowers for entry, freedom.from flaws is more important than a [E[AIS[TIE[R] EIN] [sT]A[e[E]D] 55.
