Floral Pieces Designed for two Conventions
Floral pieces designed for two conventions bloom in the Public Garden. A large horseshoe honors the North Eastern Federation of Women's Clubs and a green harp with sham rocks salutes the Ancient Order of Hibernians. Chairman Dillon said the harp bed is among the park's finest work. Seven kinds of rare plants were used. The display welcomes the conventions in the city the week of July 19, with the main display in front of the Washington statue.
