Jupe Pluvius Fails
In Attempt to
Spoil Flower Show
Last week old Jupiter Pluvius
was thinking more about filling
the salmon streams with water
than of preserving flowers in good
condition for the Juneau Garden
Club's "strolling flower show."
Nevertheless exhibitors were able
to bring many unusually beautiful
blossoms in attractive arrange
ments which were on display early
this week in downtown store win
dows.
In the display class the minia
ture wedding decorations by Mrs.
Carson Lawrence in the Juneau
Bakery window attracted great at
tention. The Juneau Young Hard
ware windows featured living room
arrangements by Mrs. Ray Ren
shaw and Mrs. Walter Kleweno.
The corsages of garden flowers
prepared by Mrs. Maxcine Wil
liams and displayed in the Ste
ven’s window were beautiful and
full of suggestions.
Outstanding was the demon
stration of the decorative possi
bilities of the natural wild ma
terials in Lu-Ek’s by Mrs. Hen
ry Green and Mrs. Laura Brun
son, particularly the black pil
low vase holding grasses and
red devil club berries with Chi
nese accessories. ^ Burford’s win
dows were filled with mixed
bouquets by Mrs. John Callahan
containing many of the finest
specimens In the show.
The following were the prize
winning entries in the competitive
section, as selected by the judges.
Mrs. John Clements, Mrs. J. O.
Rude and Mrs. Ralph Williams.
Arrangements were judged on the
basis of color harmony relation
to receptacle, portion and balance,
distinction and originality, and
suitability of combination.
