ek PRIZES AWARDED AT FLOWER SHOW Throngs Attracted to Ama- teur Exhibit Held at Fed- eral-American Bank. Throngs of flower lovers packed the lobby of the Federal-American Na- tional Bank today toview the exhibits at the fifth annual amateur flower show, which cpened yesterday and ends this evening. Three hundred entries converted the bank lobby and balcony into a gorgeous florist shop, the bank officers and tellers hardly being visible at their posts of duty. The number of entries this year surpassed other years, but many of the blooms were not as large on account of the extreme dry weather. The heat of the past two days also presented a difficult -problem for the caretakers, who were endeavoring to keep the flowers as fresh as when they arrived at the bank, as they will be given to the local hospitals after the show ends. Awards were made last night. The judges were David Lumsden. J. Wise By~s and F. L. Mulford, all of the Deparuaent of Agriculture. The grand dahlia prize was captured by H. L. Watkins of Somerset, the Fed- eral experts declaring this the best ex- hibit of the kind they have seen so far this year. Other Awards Announced.
