Key West Flower Open On Friday Afternoon ,,....csps Show To By Nina Leslie Calleja The most important event on the social calendar this week is the Key West Flower Show, un- der the sponsorship of the Garden Club, which will open on Friday at 4:00 P.M. at the Industrial Lighthouse Building No. 1. As previously stated, a flower corsage will be presented gratis to each of the first one hundred ladies to attend the Show. These corsages will be prepared entirely of fresh local blooms, and credit for them belongs to Mr. L. Brax- ton Warren, a clever young Key Wester, who has returned from a vacation from Westport, Conn. where he has been making his home for several years. Lovely tropical flowers made into attrac- tive corsages will much appeal to every lady who is fortunate enough to receive one. Heretofore there have been shadow boxes on exhibit at the Flower Show, and they have ex- ‘cited so much interest that this yeat it has been decided to have a larger number of them and to make them competitive. Eight shadow boxes will be on display, prepared rsepectively by Mrs. Ralph Boyden, Mrs. C. L. Mar- shall, Mrs. J. L. Dudley, Mr. Townsend Morgan, Mrs. John Bo- gart, Mrs. J. J. Trevor, Mrs. Clif- ford Hicks and Mr. William Pierce. Another of the features of the Show, and of particular interest to winter visitors, will be the ex- hibit of tropical fruits and vege- tables. Mrs. Stephen W. Douglass is chairman of this display, and will be assisted this year by) Mrs. L. W. Cold, Mrs. M. E. Cur- tis, Mrs. W. H. Griswold, and Church Organiza Mrs. Riordan. In connection with this, Mrs. Douglass requests that persons having fruits or vege- tables that will add to this display communicate with her immediate- ly by telephoning 695-J. She is particularly interested in hearing from anyone who might have a soursop, even though it is a small one, but will nevertheless appre- ciate hearing from others con- cerning any other fruits or vege- | tables to be exhibited. | * A. D. Leuthi’s exceptional collection of seeds and seed pods | will again this year be on dis- play. This is another of the Flow- | er Show exhibits that proves of | vast interest to visitors from oth- | er parts of the country, including | as it does hundreds of seeds and | seed pods seldom seen elsewhere. | The colored people of the city will have a special section of ex- hibits at the Show, and this will | include not only plants and cut} flowers, but display from ( the Manual Arts Department of the Douglas High School, under the direction of the head of the De- partment, James Hargrett. Emily Hernandez, who is considered ra- | ther expert in arrangement, etc., will-handle the plan of flower displays. The Woman's Civic Club requests that any colored people having plants or cut flowers they wish to offer for exhibit, get in touch with the chairman, Grace Palacios, or any member of the | club. There will be antiques, aJso, | on view in this section of the| Flower Show, these antiques col- lected from the old colored homes. | Mrs. Grace R. Crosby will be the sponsor for the colored section.
